Very impressed with mine (MC40).
FYI: if you crack a fart, it will ramp up the fan.. but you can adjust the sensitivity if you eat a lot of beans.
You can dim the LEDs on it, or have them turn off when idle (except the power LED).
The HEPA filter is cleanable, and expected to last 10 years in the average environment.
Replacement filters can be purchased via aliexpress etc, or via daikin resellers for genuine.
It's quiet and doesn't use much power.
My older daikin purifier has been going strong 10+ years without a hiccup..
still on the original filters.. imo, they are designed/engineered really well..
I had a look but can't determine the normal sale price.
But seems like a better deal IMO compared to others I've seen lately on ozb.
Before Impulse Buying
Read the comments below for alternative views. These may induce amounts of ozone* into the air. This doesn't concern me. I don't think the MC40 acts like ionizers of olden days (trying to engage the entire room) but rather, it works to embiggen particles to allow the filters to work/be cleaned more efficiently. Still.. If you have a zero ozone policy.. you may want to look for something else.. @Bargainshooter has given some alternatives below
update
Daikin responded to user Eightimmortals stating (re MC40) "the percentage of ozone in the room will not exceed 0.000005%.This sit[s] well below the standard." refer: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/13466116/redir
The MC40 has streamer tech.. but not the 'active plasma ion tech' that the larger models have.
If you are concerned, contact Daikin about your specific model.
