TechRadar Verdict
The Shark NeverChange noticeably purified the air and reduced snuffliness when used overnight.
yo note, there may be minor differences between different countries' models.
I tested one out to see how it compares the rest of thebest air purifierson the market.
Read on for my full review of the Shark NeverChange below.
The Shark NeverChange air purifier doesnt have a companion app, which is often offered by cheaper alternatives.
The US version is available in charcoal gray.
On a positive note, the setup process was quick and simple.
Before powering the air purifier on, the HEPA filter first needed to be removed from its plastic bag.
Once the filter had been replaced, it was just a case of plug-and-play.
The size of the Shark NeverChange is neither oversized nor subtle.
For peace of mind, there’s a child lock and a shut-off timer.
The status of air purity and the life remaining on the dust filters are available via the information button.
The cartridge and dial housing were easy to unpack and install.
Due to its size and shape, the lack of handles on this air purifier proved frustrating.
These pull out easily for cleaning, so I wouldnt recommend using them as handles.
Another unique feature is the ‘Odor Neutralizer Technology’.
This one of this brand’s USPs, and also appears in today’sbest Shark vacuums.
The intensity of the fragrance / neutralization can be easily adjusted by twisting the canister using the integrated handle.
The fragrance of the odor-neutralizer canister is pleasant enough; it reminds me of a subtle masculine aftershave.
The Shark NeverChange can purify up to 650sq ft / 60sq m in one hour.
The Dust Filter Life button didnt seem to do much.
I tried pulling them out and replacing them a couple of times, but it made no difference.
Its disappointing that theres no app support with the Shark NeverChange.
Plus, this is unhelpful for tracking the air quality throughout the day and night.
Ill start by saying that I had a major niggle with this purifier.
That niggle was that the NeverChange seemed to be overly optimistic with its readings.
I performed a direct comparison with the Welov P200 Pro in theTechRadarreviews office.
To do this, we took it outside and placed it directly behind my car’s exhaust pipe.
The unit dropped the reading to 92%, leading the fan to increase to speed 2.
I also sprayed dry shampoo near the sensor on the back of the NeverChange to test it.
I tried leaving the NeverChange on Auto when I went to bed.
Thankfully, on the lowest fan speed, the NeverChange was pleasingly quiet and din’t disturb my sleep.
Should I buy the Shark NeverChange?
At top fan speed, its only about as loud as a vacuum cleaner.
