When using the Vornaobaby at home, we found it relatively effective at clearing smoke from candles and cooking in a New York City apartment. It’s likely that this part will need to go in your normal household waste, as it will contain pollutants (such as smoke, dust or pollen) that it’s been designed to capture.

I should know—someone pulling a dusty book off a shelf a few meters away from me is enough to make my nose redder than Rudolph’s.But apart from the surfaces we touch in our cars, there’s also the threat that the virus might also be present in the air.

The Vornadobaby Purio Nursery Air Purifier, which is safe to use around babies but effective enough that we can see reaching for it in a variety of settings. It has a tray capacity of 900ml, and the clear design means you can see when the water needs to be emptied. Aside from its filters, the AirPure also has an ultraviolet lamp that turns on when the machine is activated. The device made such a difference in our old, drafty house and cut down on pet dander in the air, while the humidifier decreased dry skin.
