Cuckoo - 3-Stage Filtration H13 True HEPA Air Purifier CAC-R1510FW

Have been searching for a while. Narrowed my list to three options (Have not kept coway Airmega aim as it's cadr is low) 1. Honeywell Air touch v5 ( cadr 380) . Con. Size is small hence filter size would also be small 2. Xiaomi Mi 4 Lite (cadr 380)- saw reviews that aqi meter is not accurate and hence auto mode is not very reliable. Does clean the air though. It also doesn't have Hepa 13 but has true hepa filter 3. Cuckoo respure - High cadr 407 and the biggest filter. Further has 8 year warranty on motor and looks like a no nonsense purchase. Gives a free filter as qell. Have not seen much recommendations on YouTube for this though 4. Qubo 600 - Seems like a decent buy but have read sensor reliability issues and also it's a new brand so no idea of long term ownership. Still confused as to which one to buy

Hey, I ordered Cuckoo Respure yesterday. Most did show out of stock. I just preferred that it comes with a larger filter size, accurate aqui display (color based) , and high warranty. If not this , I would have ordered Xiaomi, since it has a lot of positive reviews on YouTube and Reddit. (Available on flipkart, blinkit and Mi app)

I'm using Cuckoo Respure since last year, it's working great. I have a 3D printer running in my room and Air purifier removes all plastic burning odour and keeps AQI under control. It has reduced my seasonal allergies due to dust and pollen. They were providing free set of filters after one year when I ordered, not sure if they still have that offer. 

I'm using cuckoo, it's working well. I have not used any agaro product so I don't know, and most of their products looks white labelled products. Cuckoo is quite well known in international market as well.

I bought cuckoo respure. Although the name sounds funny, the product is really good. They give 8 years motor warranty and 1 set of filters free. It is true hepa filter. Using it for the last 15 days. It has passed the tests I did - i moved it from a purified room to my lobby, the indicator turned red within seconds indicating how fast the sensor detects aqi changes, did vice versa test too.

Can vouch for Cuckoo. It works.

GTowners! I’m a , a long-time air quality nerd and parent who’s been navigating Delhi-NCR’s pollution season with a lineup of air purifiers that’s grown over the years. If you’re wondering which purifier actually works, how filters hold up, or what’s worth your money—ask away! Here’s my 7-year journey: 🌀 Philips AC1215/17 (x2 units) • My first love in air purification. Reliable, quiet, and decent CADR for bedrooms. • Filter life is solid, but performance dips in peak pollution unless you double up. • Still running after 7 years with regular maintenance. Although some electronics malfunctions are cropping up. 🌪️ Sharp F40 • Japanese build quality, plasma cluster tech. • Great for medium rooms, but filter replacements can be pricey and less accessible. • Slightly noisier than Philips but feels more “active” in cleaning. 🌬️ Coway Airmega 150 • Sleek, compact, and surprisingly powerful. • Filter replacement is easy and affordable. • Ideal for nursery or study—used this during my child’s early years. 💨 Cuckoo Respure • Korean brand with a medical-grade HEPA filter. • high CADR and Bigger filters are a plus. • great for living rooms. I’ve used these across seasons, room sizes, and pollution spikes (hello, Diwali and crop burning). I’ve also tracked PM2.5 levels with external monitors to compare real-world performance. Whether you’re buying your first purifier or upgrading, I’m happy to share insights on: • Filter costs and longevity • Noise levels and sleep compatibility • Child-safe usage and placement • Maintenance hacks and DIY filter cleaning • What actually works in Indian pollution AMA!

i have coway sharp philips cuckoo If its your first purifier go for philips. Else cuckoo coway are good too. Sharp is also good but its sub 10K models dont have a pm2.5 sensor so you wont know whats going on.

Cuckoo has more cadr. Coway had a good cadr too My sharp model didn’t have a pm2.5 sensor but. Pm10 sensor. But it filters well. Somehow Philips have been decent but I’m not happy with the way the repair just recommends pcb change for any errors that the electronics throw Also stay away from Qubo. Horrible customer support and build quality. Any specific question? Please feel free to ask

I have decided i will be buying cuckoo respure. But the prices have sky rocketed. Earlier it was 12,999 but now the same copper version is 17,999 on amazon. What to do? Should i wait for the prices to drop or buy it. Can’t withstand this pollution anymore

I bought that from their official website. Paid a 4k premium but worth it for my health

I just bought cuckoo respure too. Do you also have this weird burning like smell coming from the fan?

Bought cuckoo And it is working good . Filter hopefully will be available in future via 3rd party too.

Cuckoo respure Korean brand , good cadr , cleanable pre filter(gives long life to hepa)

\+1 Both Coway and Xiaomi is good for high-pollution places. Coway purifiers are often less noisy, easy filter replacement, and an amazing value for money product with a good cleaning rate like [Coway 250](https://amzn.to/4ntdeTv). High CADR of 400+ m³/hr. Overall, great balance of performance and low noise (as low as 22 dB). On the other hand, for a cheaper option and also quick air purification, you have [Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4](https://amzn.to/47mJ66s). Good value for money for those living in high-pollution places with features such as app control, smart scheduling, and 360-degree air intake. High CADR 397 m³/hr Focus needs to be on Coway's models for the long-term, as their 1.5–2 year filter life will save you significant money over five years compared to models with 6-month filter lifecycles.

A critical point often overlooked is that air pollution isn’t just an outdoor problem. Indian homes collect dust, PM2.5, pollen, VOCs from cleaning supplies, and smoke from cooking or incense. If you have allergies, asthma, pets, or live in a high-pollution city, an air purifier isn’t a luxury. it is a necessity. A high CADR air purifier is preferable over other ones. Additionally, use some plants indoors to regulate CO2 and O2 levels due to closed doors. Pick a purifier rated for a larger space than your actual room (e.g., buy a 1000 sq. ft. coverage model for a 500 sq. ft. room). This provides the necessary CADR headroom to quickly tackle sudden pollution spikes. Also, aim for a higher ACH since the AQI is often >100. AHAM/CADR info helps compare air purifier models. Preferably look for a model with good filter availability for long-term usage convenience. The following models are good to purchase, considering the above factors: If high price is not a problem but features such as a fully-sealed HEPA H13 filter (which is a great advantage), oscillation, and entire-room heating, capturing extremely small particles are a priority, [Dyson Air Purifier Hot+Cool](https://amzn.to/3L87KQQ) is a good choice. If you prefer something that's not noisy, easy filter replacement, and an amazing value for money product with a good cleaning rate, you can go for the [Coway 250](https://amzn.to/4ntdeTv). High CADR of 400+ m³/hr. Overall, great balance of performance and low noise (as low as 22 dB). If you're looking for a cheaper, long-lasting option and also quick air purification, you have [Cuckoo Respure](https://amzn.to/4oXxQ7z). High CADR 408 m³/hr. Good mid-range air purifier with value for money for those living in smaller houses, but high-pollution places. Has features such as a copper-infused HEPA filter to neutralize airborne microbes, viruses, and bacteria. [Philips Air Purifier Series 2000](https://amzn.to/3Lcnfr7) for good filtration, available spare parts, and a decent CADR of 380 m³/hr. Good for capturing ultra-fine particles as small as 0.003 microns, making it excellent for specific allergy needs and quiet operation. Focus on Coway's models for the long-term, as their 1.5–2 year filter life will save you significant money over five years compared to models with 6-month filter lifecycles. The effectiveness of DIY kits is a valid question. Yes, scientifically, they are effective. The C-R box is a cube constructed from four high-efficiency MERV 13 furnace filters (or higher) taped around a box fan. Studies show they have a CADR comparable to or better than some commercial purifiers, especially for larger particles. But they are also loud, bulky, and not designed for bedrooms. They are better suited for a large hall or office where noise is less of an issue. Bonus: Combine air purifiers with a [robo vacuum cleaner](https://amzn.to/47zwPwP) to ensure an even better dust-free experience, especially if you live in a very dusty place.

If you don't mind the high price but prioritize features such as a fully-sealed HEPA H13 filter (something that's mandatory), oscillation, and entire-room heating, capturing extremely small particles, go for the [Dyson Air Purifier Hot+Cool](https://amzn.to/3L87KQQ) Choose [Qubo Q1000](https://amzn.to/3JiHwux) if you want a high CADR device with best in-class CADR of 600 m³/hr and great for cleaning large spaces around 1000 sq. ft. It also automatically adjusts the fan speed and mode based on real-time AQI levels using AI technology, and also comes with a 4-layer True HEPA H13 filtration to remove maximum pollutants If you prefer something that's not noisy, easy filter replacement, and excellent value for money product with a good cleaning rate, you can go for the [Coway 250](https://amzn.to/4ntdeTv).

I just ordered Cuckoo respure too from flipkart! 🤞🏼now. Seems better than others at this price. Coway has increased their prices drastically. Filters for cuckoo should also be available in future as they are getting popular now. It’s a reputed or old Korean brand so hopefully we all should be good 👍🏼

No, not at all. I bought 3 in total. All are working fine with no such smell. Please get it checked or claim for replacement/warranty.
