LifeBasis Air Quality Monitor Indoor, 11-in-1 Air Quality Detector with Stand, Real-Time Air Meter Test AQI, PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10, CO2, TVOC, HCHO, Particles, Temperature and Humidity with Alert -White

I wrote this item for my parents when I took away their old weather station and gave them an Amazon echo show eight instead. They like it for the camera and for some features, but they really just missed having the humidity and the interior temperature showing at all times on the screen so I got them this unit since I did not need to put a device in my window or outside for it to tell the outside temperature. This is also an air quality monitor, which was an incredible bonus! I have nothing but appreciation for the device except for a rather Sterling, and then funny scare as soon as I turned it on. All of a sudden, the carbon monoxide levels went to at least triple what is acceptable and there was a an alarm beeping that did not want to stop. Of course I did not read the instructions prior to using it the first time; who ever does that? Lol 😆The joke was a middle though, because it was later in the evening. My parents have gone to bed, and I was leaving or thought I was going to leave, and I got the scare of my month, thinking that the carbon monoxide was at a poisonous level. Indeed it was not, the unit does require to sit outside on a flat open surface for about 8 to 10 minutes before using it or getting any accurate carbon monoxide readings. Soon as I found that in the directions, I took the device outside turn it off turn it back on let it calibrate and ever since that date it’s been great!my other favorite factor about this particular air monitor is that it is wireless. There is a rechargeable battery, so sometimes you do need to plug it in to charge the battery, but not having to have it plugged in with an unsightly cord hanging off the edge of the table at all times is a huge plus for me! I have a $1100 Dyson air quality monitor/ purifier & the numbers on this device match up extremely close to what my Dyson says, so I trust that this is accurate. I will be getting at least one or two more for my own house.

Works good. But kind of useless after one time finding out what your house air is like. It now sits in a drawer. It would be great if your AC repair company did this for you when they come to service.

Would be more useful as a plugin wall device, because the battery dies so quickly. Even then it doesn't work. I live with a crazy person who insists on venting his enamel paint fumes and car fumes up from the garage into the house and who dismantled all ceiling CO and fire alarms (yes, I'd leave if I could). This detects generalized VOCs better than other devices on this site, but minimally. You could be about to pass out from how bad gas and other fumes are and it'll barely register...it seems like it has to be up to the tailpipe of a car to register anything, which if fumes/gas were that bad inside your house, then by the time this beeps you'd be screwed.

I bought it at a time I felt some strange odors in my apartment. I was a good buy. It gave me peace of mind that there was no unhealthy odors in my apartment.

Charge doesn't last that long, so it won't run all day, unless it's kept on a charge. I use it as needed. Overall it seems to work as described. I would recommend.

This air quality monitor has truly helped me manage my asthma more effectively. It gives accurate, real-time readings of PM2.5, VOCs, carbon monoxide, humidity, and temperature. Since using it, I’ve been able to understand what triggers changes in my indoor air and take action quickly. The color-coded light is super helpful—it instantly shows whether the air is good or needs attention. Overall, it gave me peace of mind and made my home feel safer and healthier.

Battery short life, have to recharge very often

Great little device! It tells me exactly what’s in the air at home—PM2.5, CO2, humidity, even formaldehyde. Easy to read and gives real-time alerts. Very useful if you care about air quality
