Q: Do you have to use a scent in it?

submitted by LiLee - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi Lilee. No, using a scent is optional. The air purifier features Odor Neutralizer Technology, which includes a cartridge that can release a pleasant scent while neutralizing odors. However, the unit will still function effectively as an air purifier without the scent cartridge.

Q: In a condo, to get rid of smoke smell after a fire, does it work best with the windows open or closed?

submitted by Karon - 10 days ago

Q: I like to burn incense and scented candles, can I turn off the purifier while I do this so it doesn’t remove the scent?

submitted by Donna - 2 months ago
  • A: Yes, you can absolutely turn off your Shark HP302 air purifier while burning incense or scented candles if you'd like to keep the fragrance in the room. The purifier is designed to remove particles and odors from the air, so keeping it on will naturally reduce how long those scents linger. If you prefer the scent to stay stronger, simply switch the purifier off while you're enjoying your candles or incense, and turn it back on afterward for regular air cleaning.

Q: Where should the air purifier be placed in the room for best performance?

submitted by Patty - 3 months ago
  • A: The Shark Never Change Air Purifier Max works best when you place it on the floor in an open spot of the room you use most. Keep it at least 3 inches away from walls or furniture so air can flow freely around it. Avoid corners or hiding it behind objects, since blocked airflow reduces performance.

    A Must For Clean Air.

    This filter does a very good job of purifying the quality of air in your home. It’s very easy to set up clean up is a snap. Just remove all the filters and wash them with soap and water and it’s ready to use after they are dried. As someone who has allergies and asthma I recommend this product for those who have respiratory conditions. I really like how it has a digital display which indicates the level of the air quality in your hole. It’s very good to use in the kitchen to remove air borne odors or air pollutants after cooking.

    Shark Air Purifier Review

    I’ve been using the Shark air purifier for a bit now, and honestly, it’s been a great addition to my room. Right away, I noticed how quickly it starts cleaning the air—the display shows real-time air quality, which is actually pretty cool to watch. One thing I really like is how quiet it is. Even when it ramps up, it’s not annoying, so I can leave it running while I sleep or chill. The design is also clean and modern, so it doesn’t look out of place at all. I have it set up near my window AC unit, and it definitely helps keep the air feeling fresher, especially with dust or stuff coming in from outside. The airflow is strong, and it seems to pick up particles fast. Another plus is the “NeverChange” filter system—it saves money since you don’t have to replace filters constantly, which is a big win long term. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you want cleaner air, less dust, and a noticeable difference in air quality.

    Told me I had clean air out of the box ...doubt it

    I bought this 2 weeks ago. The minute I plugged it in it said air was 100%. I left it alone and in the next 48 hours- still at 100%. I tried the perfume test , spraying about a foot away from the back of the unit, it went on with the fans at 2 for about 15 minutes then went back to 100%/eco. I even left the patio door open with "very high" pollen count outside, never went on. I know I have dust and I can see dog hair all over my tile floors. Don't think this was worth the price tag.

    Best hepa air machine on the market

    Ours lasted about 2 years before it just stopped one day abd the screen showed to dash marks I assumed it meant the main filter had finally given out. Now we ran this thing hard daily 24/7 so a little over 2 years is acceptable in my opinion plus we have multiple long hair dogs, long hair cat, etc. This thing is an absolute work horse! Only reason not 5 stars is cannot find official replacement filter anywhere so cannot use without it!

    Unfortunately not a very good filter.

    Really doesn't work well with cigar smoke. The filter gets dirty very quickly so you have to constantly vacuum it to get rid of the particles. Not worth the price

    Replacement filter never in stock

    Bought this and now for almost a year I haven’t been able to get a new filter to replace the old one. Extremely frustrating when you can’t get the replacement you need especially when you live in a wild fire prone area in summer . You must have replacement items available or it makes the product expensive and useless!

    I like it a lot, I purchased the Air Purifier MAX and one Large Room Purifier. Only suggestion is to include the remote with the purifier purchase.

    Great product.

    I’ve had it for a few weeks and it works well. Getting the hepa filter out to take the bag off was a little difficult the first time. The smell neutralizing could be a little better but over all I am very happy with my purchase. It filter the smoke out of the kitchen from cooking on my cast iron really quickly. The pet smell has definitely improved , we own 3 Rottweilers.

    Put this one in, coach!

    Got this to replace an old HnyWl that was outdated. Just pulling it out of the box i knew it was a powerhouse. I was surprised that it immediately read 100% and was concerned ab accuracy. However when we had something overflow in the oven, causing some smoke, it immediately went to 0 and you could see it slowly come back as the air got cleaner. Also, love that it doesn't take 3/4 filters that have to be replaced immediately after installing. Also, I am a huge Shark/Ninja fan and slowly replacing everything we can with their products. Haven't made a bad decision on that to date!
