Seems to be the cheapest ever. Looks like it's been discontinued according to Philips website.
I've had two of these for a while now and have been very happy with it.

Does the night mode have any lights? It’s a detail they never mention and it’s so frustrating
When in night mode it only displays a dim blue moon icon.
I just took a pic of mine after selecting night mode:
Thank you! That’s a huge help!
Been using this model for 3 yrs. Can confirm the night mode is very night. Even a baby wont be bothered no matter the noise level or light.
Really good price - paid more for an earlier OzBargain deal that came with a free filter. Quiet mode is very quiet. No issues and the app is nice as is the quick glance too display.
We use it in a 4 x 4 room for quick filtering and it has already paid off during multiple back burning days.
OOS already!
Genuine question, what is the point of these? I don't understand them? If I want fresh air I just usually open the window.
Anyone able to tell me why they have one to better educate me?
Very common to use during bushfire season. Takes the smoke out of the air.
It also helps people who have hay fever or other allergies in the spring and such.Do they really keep dust from accumulating on surfaces? I really hate having to dust everything every couple of days :-(
I still get dust accumulating in various places.
@Sr1993e: Not sure if I can quantify any major difference. I normally use it for a few hours each day in the bedroom before sleeping, and also for a few hours when changing the sheets and doona cover which stirs up dust. I sometimes use it overnight when the outside air is a bit smoky. It does get rid of dust floating in the air that I can see but for the rest of the day when the door and windows are open dust still accumulates on surfaces and under the bed. You’d probably need a sealed room and 24x7 filtering to eliminate all dust.
I have a larger and far more expensive Inova air purifier in another area of the house and even that doesn’t eliminate all dust.
@Sr1993e: I get less. I keep it in my games/library room, where I try to minimise dust and regularly clean (just for collection's preservation sake). Since getting this model, I leave it running 24/7. I notice a significant reduction in dust in the room. Also my asthma isn't as bad when cleaning the room now!
@Sr1993e: They do nothing or next to nothing to reduce dust. Dust is huge and heavy compared to the stuff these purifiers are designed to filter, so dust falls out of the air really fast onto surfaces before the purifier has a change to process it (I've had up to 2 large purifiers running in a livingroom at the same time when I used to live in much more polluted environment.)
If you want dust free, you need huge amounts of airflow- think industrial clean rooms or datacentre HVAC systems. These are not comfortable environments. Or you set up some needlessly complex positive airflow environment with something like an IQAir with the external ducting attachment to make sure that dust never enters the room in the first place.
@rumblytangara: Oh thank you so much for your detailed answer.. some of them do actually mention that they get rid of the dust accumulating on surfaces thats why I asked if it’s a real thing or not
Thanks again!some of them do actually mention that they get rid of the dust accumulating on surfaces
Yeah, no worries. Huge amounts of marketing BS with so many home health products these days. A product like the BlueAir purifiers would be more likely to help as they work on massive airflow through a non-HEPA filter, but they are hard to find in Oz and the 6 month filter replacements are very expensive. And they make a fair bit of noise with the increased air volumes- better for an office than a home imo.
I used to have one because i owned cats and this would help me sleep at night as i would sometimes wake up with stuffy nose.
I have also gotten used to having one by my bed at all times and find myself without them waking up a bit stuffedThey scrub air - they don't freshen the air. Quite often we can't open windows because neighbours burn wood fire heaters or due to "hazard reduction burns" or when you live near busy roads or during periods of high pollen or when there are thunderstorm asthma alerts. But you can do both - as in open a window to bring in fresh air to remove stale particles such as CO2 and Nx gases and run these air scrubbers to remove the particles that are released due to the above events/conditions.
Can’t add to cart
Oos, damn
Bought the Philips 1000i for under $200 using the recent JB hi-fi voucher.
It's been ozb'gaind! Out of stock :(
Great deal though! I have a 2000i and it's incredible.Back in stock
Back in stock, and got one. Thanks OP
What do filters cost for thees things?
$60-70 for aftermarket (Amazon). Its recommended you change them every 3 years, so less often than most people think.
Edit: Genuine replacement $120
how necessary is it to replace?
Can you simply take it outside and blast it with a garden blower and have it back to nearly the same effectiveness?
From what I understand, the filters have activated charcoal embedded, which they estimate to be at the end of it's useful life in 3 years. Dunno how true that is though. I also heard the cheap knockoffs lack this.
The hepa portion generally doesn't degrade and can be used way past the recommended annual replacement date. Hepa filters actually become more effective as particles block the pores but less efficient as airflow is reduced. Blasting with a blower would most likely damage them but a gentle vacuum is much more effective.
The carbon however becomes saturated and is the reason combined hepa+carbon filters need frequent replacement.The filters will grow mould after a lot of dust accumulates on it.
Wouldn't trust aftermarket. Some pretty bad reviews
I’ve been using air purifiers for more than 20 years (lots of neighbours with wood fires around here that I don’t get along with).
Knock-off replacement filters have been so hit and miss I don’t bother anymore. Sometimes they have really offensive odours, other times they just don’t seem to do anything.
The HEPA portion of the filter lasts ages. It’s the charcoal portion (for VOCs) that expires fast, and I don’t care so much about that because air purifiers are fundamentally poor at dealing with VOCs anyway (better to just open the windows for 15 minutes if it’s showing high VOC levels and let the HEPA filter deal with particulate pollution afterwards).
For HEPA, two years or more out of a filter is entirely reasonable. Over this duration, the cost difference between real and genuine becomes cents per day.
On the flip-side, buying filters at all can be a problem for discontinued purifiers. So after buying a new purifier (I’ m on my third unit over the span of more than 20 years), I just wait for the filters to be on sale, buy a few replacements, put them in storage, and I’m likely set for the life of the unit.
Back in stock, thanks, got one.
Looks like it's supported by home assistant using a custom component: https://github.com/kongo09/philips-airpurifier-coap even if claimed to be buggy
I have both of mine integrated successfully. Have it auto turn on and off based on triggers to reduce filter usage
Back in stock, just snagged one, thanks OP!
How does it compare to the Z6000? Got 3 @ $140 each
Meant to buy a smaller one for sub $200 to use between rooms but this seems like a good price.
Trump's tariffs start to take effect, seeing all cashbacks are down to 3% and lower except Amazon devices.
Trumpet's tariffs don't affect our prices much, they only make stuff in the USA more expensive.
Amazon is regularly down to 3% or less callbacks when they don't have a promo running unfortunately, for quite a while now
Amazon always has some upsized from what I check regularly at least lately as I'm eyeing a home improvement product. I'd not bother if 3% is their norm.
Amazon US sellers got affected a lot if you read the news. Amazon AU is related so I'd guess the cashback will remain low for a while. Let's see.
If I didn’t buy the 1000i for the same price a few weeks ago I would have 100% bought this.
I got one a few years ago. I love it. I just got a new filter from Harvey Norman and keep using it.
I paid $499 last year Feb. I'm very happy with it and very long lasting filter. After 14 months, still 70% left. Very quiet as well.
Price is at $455.95 now :(
Got the 3200 a couple of weeks ago when it was on sale as I preferred the lower max decibel. Anyone have both and have any comments?
The key is to look for purifiers that have the highest CADR (clean air delivery rate) for the lowest dBA & $. The philips 3000 has cadr of 520m3/h at 56dBA. The Samsung AX7500 has cadr of 703m3/h at 54dBA, massively better CADR/dBA but it's also significantly bigger. Also, as you reduce fan speed, there is an almost (but not always) linear reduction in dBA.
Yep absolutely as people often go for the Max CADR without considering noise. You really want to over size the air purifier because running at full speed isn't practical as all sound like jet engines.
I’ve been using this for about a year. It’s ok for the price, can’t complain. The night mode is very quiet.
