- Blueair’s PetAir Pro is a pet bed with a built-in air purifier
- It’s designed to tackle hair, dander, and odors as your pet lounges on it
- Includes a Pet Lock and ultra-quiet operation
Want a pet but suffer from allergies? Or concerned about what a furry, four-legged friend might do to your indoor air quality? Blueair has the solution for you.
This brand is known for making some of the best air purifiers on the market, but its latest effort is the only one to wear a pet bed hat. The newly announced PetAir Pro is a wide, flat air purifier that forms the base for a pet bed. It’s designed to capture pet dander and fur, as well as neutralize odors, right at the source (your pet), minimizing the amount of unwelcome particles that make their way out into your home.
The bed part is customizable, with three bedding options, and Blueair has sensibly included a Pet Lock that prevents your pet from changing the settings with its paws.
The trick – I think – will be getting your pet to actually use it. I’m convinced my dog would be highly suspicious of anything that whirrs, and would freak out the minute it kicked on. I’ve pet-sat for cats who were never happier than when sitting directly on top of my laptop keyboard, which suggests this species might be more comfortable with the mechanical element (although I secretly suspect they were just looking to inconvenience me, and might too reject a PetAir Pro, even if purely on the basis it has been bought specifically for them).
Blueair has done its best to make it as appealing as possible, though. It promises “whisper-quiet” operation in general, and when the PetAir Pro senses your pet is resting on it, it’ll lower the fan speed automatically.
The PetAir Pro is available to buy now on Blueair.com for $499.99 (about £370 / AU$770). It’s currently only available in the US.
