'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards.

This air purifier is a must for pet parents, and it's $60 off ahead of Prime Day sales
If you are a pet owner, you know the struggle of breathing in pet dander and hair when your furry friend sheds their winter coat. On Amazon Prime Day two years ago, my husband and I purchased this Blueair air purifier, and it has made life as cat parents much easier since we aren't breathing in as much of our cat Norbert's hair.

It's also discounted again ahead of Amazon Prime Day next week. Right now, you can get the Blueair Blue Pure 211i Max Air Purifier for 17% off at $290.
Since introducing the Blueair air purifier into our living room, we've seen a significant reduction in the amount of Norbert's hair that accumulates. The real-time LED indicator provides constant reassurance about the air quality, displaying statuses such as excellent (blue), moderate (orange), or polluted (red).

Blueair says this air purifier removes 99.97% of airborne particles, including viruses and bacteria, dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold. This particular model can clean spaces up to 1,524 square feet in 30 minutes or 635 square feet in about 12.5 minutes when on the highest setting. Plus, it's super quiet with a decibel rating of 23-53dB -- we only really notice the sound being loud when it's turned onto the highest setting.
I highly recommend an air purifier -- especially the Blueair Blue Pure 211i Max -- to pet parents for a cleaner home and more breathable air. Amazon Prime Day is from Tuesday, July 16, through Wednesday, July 17, so snag this deal before the event ends.
