Air Swimmer Shark

Product Information

My hair was super bouncy and voluminous, and despite some frizz that came about on days two and three — I was overall really happy with the results. My Shark curls held and lasted longer compared to my Dyson curls, and I didn't feel the need to touch up my Shark hair as often as I do with the Dyson. It was fascinating to see what smells and particles triggered a reaction and hear the fans step up a gear when the percentage of clean air fell. It often upped cleaning when our windows were open and went into overdrive when we fried steak on the other side of the room it was in. I was incredibly impressed with how well the FlexStyle worked on my hair. I went in with low expectations since I really have loved the Airwrap for the past two years. However, I think the price of the Shark is incredible for how well it works. For the last four years since its 2018 launch, the Dyson Airwrap has been at the top of every beauty buff's Christmas list. But that’s all about to change.

We really liked the circle of coloured light on the front and top of the machine, which allows you to clearly see the quality of air from the other side of the room. The digital display is also easy to read with three different settings to toggle between to see the percentage of clean air and whether that is good, fair or poor, the time left to clean in minutes and the particle amount in the air. This can display two particle sizes – PM 2.5 for smoke and bacteria and PM10 which includes dust, mould and pollen. Don’t be fooled by its weight, though, this nifty, compact device doesn’t compromise on power, drying my hair by 80 to 90 per cent in under three minutes. There are far more important considerations when buying an air purifier than making a style statement. However, as this is one appliance that will be out on display all year round and can’t be hidden away behind a cupboard door, it’s handy if it looks presentable too.

The device was launched in October, and acts as a versatile multi-styling tool that’s seen some shoppers sell their Dysons. The purifier’s slim rectangular shape means it’s no hassle to find somewhere to leave it and it won’t take up too much room. However, it looks so much like a sleek mini radiator, one visitor on a sunny day expressed total confusion as to why we had a heater plugged in.

The FlexStyle offers three heat and airflow settings, which can be changed with the buttons on the handle of the device. The Shark gadget measures its airflow continuously to ensure consistent temperature to avoid heat damage, which is really important for me, as I have some bleached sections. The air felt noticeably cleaner too and a mild hay fever sufferer in our family really believed it helped her sleep more soundly than she usually does in summer. The display screen also shows how long is left until the filter needs replacing, which Shark estimates to be between six and twelve months. Helpfully, no washing or maintenance is needed in between changes, so you really can switch this machine on and forget about it. Room size: 34m² (approx. 85 m³ where 2.5 metres is used as an average height of a room) based on three air changes per hour We were hugely impressed by the Shark air purifier 4 HE400UK and really felt it made a difference to the air quality in our home. We loved the fact it adjusted automatically when it sensed particles in the air so we didn’t need to think about making changes ourselves and we definitely noticed a difference when it dealt with strong smells in particular.

We might reasonably assume that once we’re behind closed doors, we’re much safer. However, one study found indoor air pollution can be over three times worse than it is outside. Everything from cooking to fresh paint is to blame, though there are some less obvious pollutants, from the cleaning products we use to the expensive scented candle we burn while watching TV. We have even less control over volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are released by some varnishes and paints and even furniture made from MDF or plywood.
