What is the difference between HEPA and HyperHEPA filtration?
The gold standard for air filtration, HyperHEPA filters build on the HEPA model to create even more effective filtration, removing 99.5% of particles down to 0.003 microns, 100 times smaller than the 0.3-micron standard set for regular HEPA filters.
What makes IQAir’s patented HyperHEPA air filtration technology superior to other air filtration technologies?
Other filtration methods, like ionization and UV light, can introduce harmful byproducts, like ozone, into the air. IQAir’s HyperHEPA filters trap the tiniest airborne pollutants on filter media, and never add anything harmful to the air.
How can all that filtration power be packed into as small of a package as the Atem Desk?
It starts with IQAir’s state-of-the-art manufacturing and design processes refined for over 55 years. Add to that our HyperHEPA filter technology, which in the Atem Desk air cleaner, removes 99% of airborne particles down to 0.003 microns in size.
Why is the Atem Desk sometimes referred to as a 5-in-1 air purifier?
Besides being an exceptional personal air purifier, it can be used as a small room air purifier, a portable air purifier, a travel air purifier, and converted to a vehicle air purifier.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
You need to set this up close to your head. It's not meant to clean the room, but to produce a zone of clean air around your head. On the highest of the three settings, it's audible, but that's about all. On the two lower settings the sound is barely noticeable.
The quirks: (it wouldn't be IQAir without quirks) First, you plug the cord into the side of the unit and into the wall. You may need an extension cord in some hotel rooms, to run the power from the outlet to your face. The cord is reasonably long, but for some hotel rooms may just not be long enough. So bring an extension cord.
The stand is actually cool. But, when you attach the disc-shaped unit to the stand, it doesn't really CLICK into place. Rather, it SLIPS into place. Result: If you try to pick up and move the unit, the stand may fall off. It'd be nice if it had some kind of positive attachment to the lozenge.
I have no idea, obviously, how long the filter will last. I do know that I'm really glad to have this, and believe it will open up a world of travel that I thought I had lost.
Edit: After a few months of ownership, I decided to try using this in my bedroom, every night, to help me sleep. The good news is that it works as well at home as it did in a hotel room. The bad news is that the filters don't last long at all. I run it on the highest speed, 3, for about 8 hours each night, and after about a month I'm starting to clog up and wake up coughing. Nor is it a slow decline. Rather, one night I'm fine, one night I struggle, and then it's hopeless. Too bad. But if you look at the filters you can see that they are rather small, without much surface area, and so it's no surprise that they fill up quickly.
Once again, others whose allergies are somewhat less savage than mine may get more out of each filter. But this will be my travel filter rather than every day. I will not reduce the rating, because this was an unknown rather than an expectation, and this will still be the ultimate travel air purifier. But if you use it for travel, you may want to track the number of hours use, and when you get near to 250, swap it out if you're about to go on the road.
Edit #2: The really interestingly-shaped filter sits inside this thing wrapped around the top and the back side, which I realized might cause problems with filter longevity. Why? Because dust can settle out of the air directly onto the filter, by traveling down. Unlike the big tall house-sized units that I also reviewed. So I started putting a plastic bag over the unit when not in use.
Good news! Doing this about doubles the filter life for me. Going from one month to two months per filter is definitely worth it, given that all I do is put a trash bag over the thing. It still costs me about a dollar a night, but my sleep is so much better that it's worth it.
Edit #3: After about a year of use I noticed that filter life was starting to tank. When you change a filter, you'll notice a second, smaller lift-off cover that has a little curved piece of styrofoam under it. This is the muffler, to reduce the already miniscule amount of sound the unit produces. Trying to clean this made it worse, but removing it entirely resolved the problem, and the unit is barely louder. So you may want to consider ditching this. It doesn't seem to be a replacement part, but I plan to go to the hardware store, buy matching foam, and cut out a replacement. I'll let you know.

There was a very strong chemical smell that thankfully went away after one day of running the atem on high.
The Bluetooth app is great and the base is stable and made of high quality material. Not sure why other reviews said otherwise.
Definitely recommend this product.
