@jayman007@kyeh She had a flood in her condo and hasn’t taken it out of the box to use yet-sorry.
I bought another one meh was selling and it worked well and was quiet as long as I didn’t turn it up to the highest speed.
The thing you have to be mindful of is the what size room is it designed for. Just bought a couple a fairly
pricey ones directly from Blueair at 60% off ($ 300+ down from $ 800) but their coverage is large room (600+ sq feet) but with a bird I need that.
Also have to be mindful of whether replacement filters are available (always an issue with discontinued items on meh), but I checked before I ordered it for my daughter.
@Felton10@jayman007
Ugh! That’s happened to my mother and also to a late friend of mine - his was really bad because it came from two floors up and nobody was home in any of the units for several weeks (a lot of people there with two residences.)
The latter set is probably fine for reducing odors and dust, but I’d go with the $10 ones if you’re dealing with allergies due to pollen or mold spores.
Too bad I can’t buy it and have it delivered instantly. I got back from vacation yesterday only to be greeted by a kitchen full of fruit flies and the stench of a long-forgotten bag of potatoes.
@jhenry Ugh, tell me about it. I cleaned the shelf as well as i could, but the shelf has a lazy Susan for pots and pans, so I can’t see under the whole thing to make sure I got all the liquid wiped up, and I’m not sure how much seeped into the wood of the shelf. I’m kind of afraid to open it again.
@jhenry@lisagd Yeah, I’ve had to deal with that too! Try spraying hydrogen peroxide into the places you can’t reach and into the wood it might have soaked. H2O2 is magic.
Seems to work pretty well. Removes a lot of stuff from the air in my bedroom and is pretty quiet. Mine is located next to the bed and even on high speed it is quieter than a typical table fan.
Mine started blinking for a filter change after about a month and a half. Shorter than they indicated in the manual, but I have two cats so… filters are fairly easy to come by - look for ones compatable with Levoit LV-H128 if you can’t find any that mention this model specifically. About $9 per pair seems to be average (you need two of them for a complete filter change).

@yakkoTDI Typical small mind trying to be “cute”!

@yakkoTDI
I feel seen.

@ACustomer Glad to see you are still around. I thought you had fucked off to some other place.
Can one unit fit in multiple rooms?
Sleek look and the perfect size to fit in multiple rooms of the house
@Euniceandrich ?
I’m sure it will fit in about any room you move it to.
@Euniceandrich @phendrick But only one room at a time.
@Euniceandrich @jmbunkin @phendrick Put it in the doorway. Easy peasy.
@Euniceandrich @jmbunkin @phendrick Schrodinger would say it’s in all the rooms until you go looking for it
Bought the same one on Morningsave a couple of weeks ago for my daughter for same price with VMP 10% off.
@Felton10 Is it good?
@Felton10 how quiet is it? Like is it suitable for a bedroom?
@Kyeh I’ll have to ask my daughter
@jayman007 I’ll ask my daughter.
@jayman007 @kyeh She had a flood in her condo and hasn’t taken it out of the box to use yet-sorry.

@Felton10 @jayman007 Oh, sorry to hear about the flooded condo! Well, maybe this thing will help with that once she’s able to put it to use.
@jayman007 @Kyeh She’s had that problem before as she is on the bottom of 4 floors and its is always in the same spare bedroom.

Today’s button click badge made me think “Oh is it pandemic time already again?”
Then I realized a mask like that is probably for nuclear fallout.
Sweet dreams, everybody!
@pmarin I need that mask tonight. My 3 dogs must of gotten into my baked bean and broccoli salad. Ooooof!
Roseanne Roseannadanna said I needed a hair purifier, but I don’t think hers worked very well.
What?
Never mind.
@phendrick Um,

@macromeh I guess I need a new SSD; my memory must be faulty.
(Weren’t they cousins, or something, anyway?)
I like a nice heavy particle count in my air PASS
Site was down for a min there!
What does the replacement filter cost? Se buy for cheap then get you to replace filter at 40 dollars
@rkindnessal The link Meh gives for the filters at Amz has two for about $10 each. Here’s a link there for a 4 pack at a little over $6 each:
https://www.amazon.com/PUREBURG-Replacement-Filters-Compatible-Purifier/dp/B08RJ9F975/ref=sr_1_39?keywords=Valkia+Ultra+Quiet+True+3M-HEPA+Activated+Carbon+Filter+Air+Purifier&qid=1663993629&sr=8-39
Also, a link for the PDF manual download (only some of it is in Chinese):
https://manualsfile.com/product/vwsg0pecc.html
BUT, you can’t be a robot!
@phendrick @rkindnessal set meh linked to are HEPA filters while that 4-pack is not.
The latter set is probably fine for reducing odors and dust, but I’d go with the $10 ones if you’re dealing with allergies due to pollen or mold spores.
Do the 3 M’s stand for Meh?

@yakkoTDI
The comments are few tonight, or maybe the good ones are being filtered out.
@hchavers Good ones? Here? Go to bed, you’re drunk.
@hchavers @yakkoTDI Yeah… go to drunk, you’re bed.
Too bad I can’t buy it and have it delivered instantly. I got back from vacation yesterday only to be greeted by a kitchen full of fruit flies and the stench of a long-forgotten bag of potatoes.
@lisagd yikes that potato smell is legit

@jhenry @Kyeh Ah, I never thought of H2O2! I’ll give it a try.
@jhenry @lisagd I hope it works!

This appears to be replacement filters for this purifier. If so, I’m going to purchase the purifier.

Price was right and appears to have replacement filters. Breathing improved!

Excellent purchase! I don’t have an exhaust fan so I use it and it’s awesome!!
PANS! GLANDS! CRAYONS! AWESOME!
