Decoration and health go hand in hand with the Ikea purifying table that will keep viruses and pollution at bay

When autumn arrives and temperatures drop, we spend more time at home with the windows closed and breathing air that can have a large amount of particles that are harmful to our health. Therefore, during these months we consider getting a purifier that improves the quality of the air we breathe.

We can find many types of purifiers on the market. From inexpensive, but ineffective models, to high-quality and expensive devices that eliminate any undesirable particle from the home environment. However, Ikea comes with a new, useful, quality product at a very competitive price. Let's talk about the STARKVIND table with built-in air purifier.

With this product, the Swedish giant unites design and health to create a unique piece of furniture that offers many advantages. So that you can know what it is like, at El Comprador de La Vanguardia we are going to explain all its features and uses.

A "purifying table" is a type of furniture that is equipped with an air purification system. A piece of furniture with dual use because, on the one hand, it has all the uses of a table, but it is also responsible for improving the quality of the air in its immediate surroundings. For example, it has a built-in air filter that removes dust particles, allergens, and contaminants from the surrounding air, contributing to a cleaner, healthier environment in the room where the table is located.

These purifying tables are especially useful in environments where air quality is a problem, such as in homes located in areas with high levels of environmental pollution.

The STARKVIND model from Ikea is a side table with a built-in air purifier that improves air quality. A piece of furniture that you can place next to the sofa, use as a nightstand or put it in any corner of the house where you want better air quality. Additionally, on top you can put a vase with flowers, photo frames, magazines or whatever you want.

It has a particle filter that has been optimized to filter approximately 99.5% of suspended particles such as PM2.5 particles, dust and pollen. It also allows you to add a gas filter (sold separately) that captures polluting substances such as formaldehyde, or an activated carbon filter (also sold separately) to eliminate bad odors, gases or harmful pollutants.

It has 5 different speeds, so it adapts to your needs, and allows you to regulate it manually to set the purifier in automatic mode, or connect it to the DIRIGERA hub to have full control through the IKEA Home smart application.

In addition, you can use it while you sleep because it is very quiet, an LED light warns when the filter is very dirty and it can be controlled by voice if we connect it to Amazon Alexa, Apple Home or Google Home.

As if that were not enough, it is available in two colors so we can choose the one that best matches the decoration of our house.
