'I tried Dyson's new air purifier to help with hay fever and found another surprising benefit'


The Dyson Purifier Cool Gen1 has just been upgraded, and to put it to the test we tried it out during hay fever season

We have an open-plan kitchen/living so I set this up between in the two, in the hope of capturing cooking smells, smoke from our log burner, and pollen from our back doors (I haven't quite found the best way to hide the wires, so it may end up moving further into the kitchen). After using it for a couple of weeks in the height of tree pollen season, I do think it's made a slight difference to my boyfriend's hay fever symptoms; he's sneezing less in the evenings at home, and he says his eyes feel less irritated. It's easy to monitor pollution, pollen and allergen levels (Image: Laura Mulley)However, where we've found it most beneficial is in banishing lingering food smells post-cooking- a task that even with the windows wide open and extractor fan whirring, we often find challenging.
