What reviewers say about the Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde BP04
Three whitelisted outlets (TechRadar, Reviewed/USA Today, TechHive) hands-on or lab tested the Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde; TechRadar and Reviewed covered the higher CO2-sensor trim (aligned with BP04) while TechHive tested the base Formaldehyde unit. All quotes and measured values below were verified as literal substrings of the fetched pages. All rate it a powerful, genuinely quiet large-room purifier with standout formaldehyde/VOC filtration and rare five-year HEPA H13 filter life, but flag its very high price and bulk. Reviewed's lab pegs particle CADR at only ~200 CFM (smoke) — good, not class-leading — and Dyson publishes no official CADR.

Where reviewers disagree Particle-cleaning performance is where the sources diverge: TechHive measured a strong PM2.5 drop (132 to 3 in under 15 minutes) and called it efficient, while Reviewed's lab estimated smoke CADR at only ~200 CFM — 'good' but beaten by cheaper units like the Blueair Blue Pure (250 CFM). The fan's airflow also splits them: TechHive flags a 'physically noticeable airflow' in the machine's vicinity as a con, whereas TechRadar found the air circulation pleasant and said the hum 'disappears into the background as white noise.'
The sources (3)
noise at fan level 10, phone mic below main jet (smartphone app; reviewer notes no calibrated sound meter): 60 dB
It was not love at first sight with the Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde, but after just one day of using it in my own home, I don't want to ever be parted from it
the hum of the Big+Quiet, even at full bore, disappears into the background as white noise.
That's a lot of features that will cost you a lot of money – it is Dyson's most expensive domestic-use purifier to date.
CADR for smoke (Reviewed lab estimate): ~200 CFM
For VOCs, it's the best of the best. It does a better job than any other filter we've tested
Our tests suggest that this unit's CADR is about 200 CFM, where smoke is concerned.
This air purifier's $1,099.99 MSRP is much higher than many other air purifiers that have made our best-of list.
PM2.5 at max power, 20 m² room, <15 min (PCE-PCO 1 particle counter): 132 to 3 · PM10 at max power, 20 m² room, <15 min (PCE-PCO 1 particle counter): 13 to 1
The unit purifies efficiently, and in auto mode the sensors react instantly to the slightest deviation in the air.
PM2.5 was reduced from 132 to 3 and PM10 from 13 to 1 in less than 15 minutes.
the bulky and heavy Purifier Big Plus Quiet creates a physically noticeable airflow in its vicinity, and it costs a small fortune.
