Switchbot’s New Air Purifiers Now Available to Buy

After initially unveiling its forthcoming air purifiers at IFA last year, switchBot has now launched these two new products: the Air Purifier and the Air Purifier Table. These purifiers – as I’m sure you’re aware – aim to improve indoor air quality while offering practical and stylish looking home devices that blend in. Both models feature advanced filtration, smart connectivity, multifunctional design, and – they claim – are especially suitable for households with pets.

The Air Purifier has a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 236 CFM (400 m³/h), making it designed specifically (but not exclusively) for larger spaces. Its filtration system – comprising pre-filters, activated carbon, and HEPA filters – removes 99.97% of airborne particles, (actually standard for most air purifiers these days), including allergens, pet dander, and bacteria. Designed with pet owners in mind, it eliminates 93.45% of pet hair, neutralises 98.18% of odours within 30 minutes, and filters 99.01% of cat allergens and 99.99% of bacteria.

Key features:

• Pet Hair Removal – Captures 93.45% of pet hair with 360° purification and a specialised pet filter.
• Odour Reduction – Neutralises 98.18% of pet and household odours within 30 minutes.
• Allergen and Germ Filtration – HEPA filter removes 99.97% of particles, including 99.01% of cat allergens and 99.99% of bacteria.
• Pet-Safe Design – Includes a one-click pet mode, bite-proof cables, and scratch-resistant materials.
• User Comfort – Ultra-quiet (20dB) operation, ambient lighting, fragrance diffusion, and energy-saving automatic airflow adjustment.

The Air Purifier Table combines air purification with a compact, multi-functional surface, serving as a coffee or bedside table. It features Qi-standard wireless charging for Android and iPhone devices, customisable RGB lighting with ten colour options, and a waterproof surface. Note that iPhone users will not get the full advertised charging rate found with Apple’s own Qi charging devices.

Both devices integrate with the SwitchBot Ecosystem, allowing users to monitor air quality, adjust settings, and schedule operations via the SwitchBot app. The Air Purifier can clean a 215 sq. ft. space in 7.2 minutes and cover up to 1,800 sq. ft. per hour. Washable pre-filters help extend the filter lifespan, reducing maintenance costs and waste.

Both models feature an ambient light atop the purifier that changes colour depending on how clean the air in the room is.

One important note is that currently, whilst both devices are Matter compatible, they are only compatible via a Switchbot Matter bridge, even though they connect to your network using 2.4GHz WiFi. At the time of writing, it will only provide on/off control when exposed to Apple Home. The good news is that SwitchBot will be pushing an update for the air purifiers that will then allow them to connect directly to your Apple/Matter smart home directly, using Matter, without the requirement for a Switchbot hub.
