I have a MI 2C purifier since 2019, it works fine but has no aqi reading. Is this model reliable with AQI readings?

I'm have the following purifiers for my family of 5. Phillips 2887 and 1215. Mi Purifiers 2, 3 and 4. Coway Airmega 150 and Qubo 1000C. Not sure about replacing filters every 3 months. We clean it once a fortnight or month depending on the pollution. Mi and Qubo give filter replacement alarms. They say 9000 hours to 15000 hours. So not sure how you came up with 3 months. 90 days x 24 hours is about 2k hours of filter use only. I've placed the Phillips 1215 in the kitchen to reduce pollution in the rest of the house. I didn't think much about Co2 but will see if I can monitor. I counter room cooling with a oil based heater since it doesn't alter the room humidity unlike convection based heaters.

Ich bin bei den chinesischen Produkten hängengeblieben \*hust\* Xiaomi Air Purifier 2, 3 und 4 plus einen selber gebautem (Ventilator, hepa filter, kabelbinder) Bis auf letzteren alle so leise, dass man sie auch im Schlafraum betreiben kann

Yes. I have Mi 2 air purifier. It is a simple tech, you can change the filter by yourself, and clean the existing filters to give it some more extend life. Only issue is the stock availability of the machine.

I added all my Xiaomi ones - 1st gen, 2nd gen and 4 Pro - to Apple Home via Homebridge. Kinda straightforward and expose data like temperature, humidity, air quality to Apple Home too.

I have a bunch of Xiaomi air purifiers (2, 2S, 3C, etc) one for each of my rooms and they work well. Tested with an IQAir and Qingping air quality meters. I would just get Xiaomi if they are more accessible / cheaper / have cheaper filters in your region

Yes, go grab a mi one, they're under $100 and worth every penny.
