Smart Air Purifier with Humidifier Combo KCP110UW

Is this an expensive item, yes. Does this improve the quality of sleep you get, YES. I was debating whether or not I should get this since it was a pricey purchase but decided to do it. I am so glad I did. I have ac and I've been waking up with my nose and throat super dry so I was hoping that this would help. It came in while my husband and I had a really bad cold, we were able to set it up quickly and even though we were sick we slept thru the night. Since we have gotten this we have been able to sleep thru the night and not wake up coughing. Personally it has even helped with my acid reflux at night due to my throat not being dry. I was afraid that it would make too much noise and prevent us from sleeping but the noise level is so minimal.

Allergies, dust and dropping humidity caused by our furnace was the main reasons to look into devices with both purifying and humidifying function. After couple of weeks of research, we decided to go with Sharp KCP70U for large homes and I have to say, we love it! It was surely an investment ($500 range) compare to other (cheaper) products, but nothing offered complex autonomous functions as this product. Delivery was much faster than expected. Product is relatively large, but very slick and design very appealing. It contains massive HEPA, carbon filter and water trey with filter. Assembly was easy (to remove plastic bags from filters) and we were ready to go. Wifi function is great, however setting that up was a bit of a challenge, however we just needed to follow instructions step by step. We were able to set up a schedule based on our schedule so we don’t waste energy when we are not at home. On auto mode with humidifying it takes about 5-7W. Only disappointment was its non compatibility with Alexa. Maybe in the future. On auto setting or sleep setting it’s very quiet. We barely notice it. It’s a pity we can’t set humidity to any level, it does that automatically, however we don’t need to think about humidity dropping under certain level, which is great. We would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has a severe allergy. In combination with robotic vacuums, we don’t need to worry with excessive dust, pm2.5 particles and odor in our house. It’s definitely worth it.

The unit was very cumbersome to setup via Wi-Fi but eventually got it and it’s nice to monitor the air quality and humidity. The down sides are you cannot adjust up the humidity but just monitor, not a good thing. Also the water reservoir needs constantly monitored 2X daily to keep humidity constant. I use purified water from my fridge so the paper filter is not so stained during cleaning/flushing. The water reservoir is very tiny and constantly needs filled on the lowest settings. The positives are, its quiet, easy to setup, wireless monitoring is great and its stylish looking.

I've been using the SHARP Smart Air Purifier + Humidifier for a few months now, and I can confidently say it has significantly improved the air quality in my home. This device not only purifies the air but also maintains optimal humidity levels, making it perfect for all seasons. One of the standout features is its compatibility with Alexa and Google Assistant. This makes controlling the purifier incredibly convenient, especially when my hands are full. I can easily adjust settings or check the air quality with simple voice commands, which has been a game-changer in my daily routine. The Plasmacluster ion technology is impressive and effectively removes allergens, bacteria, and even odors from the air. I've noticed a considerable reduction in dust and pet dander, which is essential for my family, as we have allergy sufferers. The air feels fresher, and there's a noticeable difference in our overall comfort. Another highlight is the device's quiet operation. Whether it's running on low or high, it's barely noticeable, allowing us to enjoy a peaceful environment without any disturbance. The sleek design fits perfectly in any room, blending seamlessly with our home decor. Overall, the SHARP Smart Air Purifier + Humidifier has exceeded my expectations. It's a versatile, efficient, and smart addition to any home, providing clean, healthy air with the convenience of modern technology. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their indoor air quality.

Humidifier function is VERY limited. At most it could maintain the humidity of a small room when hot AC is on. Also the filter gets stinky (you know, the kind of funky smell) even after weekly rinse in our case. You will have to do the full clean (dunk filter in citric acid water) every other week to prevent the stickiness from happening in real life. I would not recommend this one. Would rather go back their old model.

I purchased this air purifier + Humidifier from Amazon US and it was shipped fairly quickly and it arrived quickly too, considering that it was shipped to the Middle East. I started unpacking it and setting it up per the instructions and the first issue I ran into was that you cannot download the Sharp Air app for Android from my country. In order to use the full features of this device, such as daily scheduleing, you need the app. So, I contacted the Sharp US support and they told me this model is designed for USA only. They replied within 24 hours and they were very friendly. So, I had another follow up question a couple of days later regarding the humidification function and they also replied in a friendly manner within 24 hours. Few days later, we had a nasty sand storm in our area and the Sharp air purifier was showing 85 on its little display for PM2.5, which is very high for an indoor area. I had the purifier set on the Auto fan speed at that time and I expected it to ramp up its fan speed to clean the air in the room, since it was set on auto, at least that's what my other Dyson air purifier was doing which was in the same room. I have two air purifiers in this room because it is quite large, about 1000 square feet. So, the auto function on the Sharp air purifier was not working as expected. I contacted support again to explore how I might fix this issue and I received absolutely no response. I may have received a faulty device or maybe that's why it was on 25% sale on Amazon.

If you want an air purifier first and a humidifier as an added bonus this is the machine for you. However, if you want an equal split (or anything remotely able to add humidity to a large area) keep on looking. My home smells great, but after 8 hours of operation the humidity level in the room didn't raise at all. I'm super disappointed!

Sharp has the Plasmacluster technology that CAN be TURNED OFF. It produces zero to very low levels of ozone and is tested to be perfectly safe. I checked the gov't site to verify which air purifiers are considered safe from ozone--All of Sharps made the list. They have been one of the leading air purifier brands in Japan for decades. The CADR ratings are some of the highest available without spending thousands of dollars. And they are AHAM certified. Third party testing is nice to see and should be used when comparing the multitude of air purifiers on the market. I have purchased 3 of these and several other older model Sharp air purifiers--my older ones are still going strong after 7 years of constant daily use. Yes, replacement filters can be pricey. But these are TrueHEPA and the secondary (odor) filters have a nice amount of charcoal pieces in them not simply foam with a charcoal coating. I get frustrated seeing the advertising for other purifiers on the market that claim to be the best while boasting of having all these fabulous features, BUT their CADR ratings are low--that is the AIR EXCHANGE RATE verified by a third party company, so PAY ATTENTION TO THE CADR RATINGS. Air purifiers move air--the more air movement going through the machine to clean the surrounding air, the cleaner the air in the room. These Sharp units are 352/347/443 (dust/smoke/pollen) Beat that! I should add: I use mine WITHOUT utilizing the humidifier function. Nice option to have if I ever decide I need it though… Again, GreaT unit!

Awesome unit but limited on voice commands through Alexa and Google Assistant.
