Lastly, it includes an activated carbon filter that reduces odors in the environment.

The Winix 5300-2 Air Purifier is perfect for medium to large spaces, as it can efficiently purify air in rooms up to 360 square feet.

Indeed, the Winix 5300-2 has a smart sensor that can gauge the air quality in the room and adjust the fan speed accordingly for optimal purification. It also features a sleep mode that automatically adjusts the fan speed and dims the panel lights for an undisturbed sleep environment.

While it can vary based on usage and air quality, it is generally recommended to replace the True HEPA filter every 12 months and the carbon filter every 3 months. However, the purifier has a filter replacement indicator to help you maintain it at its best.

🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The reviews suggest that the Winix 5500-2 air purifier effectively reduces dust in the room and even tracks odors, which signals that the unit performs well over time. However, some design issues like very bright lights, potentially tricky sensor sensing only odors, not dust or pollen particles, and complex snap-in features that require careful handling are mentioned. Despite these, given its overall performance and value for money, it receives positive reviews from users.

Pros

  • 🌟 Effective dust reduction within six weeks of usage
  • 🌟 Energy efficient, with unnoticeable daily electricity consumption
  • 🌟 Responds to odors showcasing the sensitivity of the sensor
  • 🌟 Intuitive and user-friendly control panel
  • 🌟 Relatively quiet operation, even in turbo mode
  • 🌟 Durable, with stored-reviewed unit running flawlessly even after 5 years

Cons

  • ⚠️ The snaps can be tricky to handle during cleaning and might cause a mess
  • ⚠️ The air quality sensor doesn’t sense dust or pollen particles
  • ⚠️ Extremely bright lights that can't be turned off (except in AUTO mode)

Should I Buy It?

Yes, despite a few design flaws related to illuminating indicators and complexity of snap-in features, the Winix 5500-2 air purifier offers solid performance over the years. Its ability to significantly reduce dust and respond to odors indicates its effectiveness, while its unnoticeable impact on the electricity bill and user-friendly control panel adds convenience. Furthermore, long-term users have stated the product remains durable even after extended usage.


  • 5 years later, still doing a great job
We bought this purifier in 2019 to help improve the air quality in an apartment. The building was older and had a ventilation system that, during the winter, would pull cooking smells, smoke, and other odors into our living space. The overall timing turned out to be fortuitous since we ended up spending a lot more time indoors when the pandemic kicked off a year later. The immediate effect of the purifier was noticeable. Unwanted odors were improved, there was less dust in the air, and we experienced fewer allergy symptoms. Especially since we were in a smaller space (~600 sq ft), this thing really did a great job, even staying on its low setting. It was great piece of mind knowing the air quality was a bit better for our newborn, too. We’ve since moved into a larger house and this thing is still humming along in our living room. I’m sure it’s less effective in such a large open space, but it’s positioned near our A/C air return, so it’s cleaning up a lot of the air as the A/C circulates air through the whole house. It has remained quiet and effective. I just vacuum out the dust shield every couple weeks, replace or vacuum out the charcoal filter every few months, and change the HEPA filter out annually. Overall, I don’t think you can beat this for the price. I like that it doesn’t have a remote, an app, and other extraneous things when all I need is cleaner air. I’ll likely upgrade to something larger at some point, but I’ve been super happy with this little guy for over 5 years now. ... show more

  • Definitely Would Recommend.
If you suffer from allergies, this filter is so worth the money. It's made a major difference in my home this allergy season. It shows a color-coded light that identifies when it's sensed contaminates and what level cleaning is underway: Blue, Orange, Red. I know it's accurate, because if I open the door for any length of time it turns orange. I'm a rather poor cook, and when it gets the least bit smokey inside it turns orange. I usually turn it off when I'm cooking. However, one night I filled the place with smoke, and this unit cleared the air in about two minutes, all the while display the bright red "What are you doing" light. When I first powered this up, it was red for a few hours, letting me know how contaminated the air was in my home without this device. If I leave this on for the day, when I return at night the air has a slight izonization smell... sort of like after a nearby lightening strike; which I'm guessing means it's been doing its job. The filers are kind of pricey, but couldn't even watch TV because my eyes were so watery before I got this unit; so it was worth it. First, there's a simple screen to block the big stuff. I just pop-this out and spray it was the water hose and it's clean in seconds. Behind that screen, there's a 30-day charcoal filter. These aren't reusable, but the unit comes with three of them. That's because the third filter is the micro one, which lasts for 90 days. So you use the three charcoal filters for 90 days, then replace the micro filer as well. An new filter kits comes with another three charcoal and one micro filter, so you're good for another 90 days. After about 45 days my allergies were starting to get bad again, then I remembered I hadn't replaced the 30-day charcoal filter. As soon as I did the air improved. It's pretty quiet. I don't really notice it's running unless I've got it on the maximum speed. At that speed it's loud enough to interfere with hearing the TV, but it's really cranking-out the air as well. Most of the time, I leave it in the auto mode. The sensor works very well, knowing when to kick-in and when to stay dormant. I'm considering getting another for the office. ... show more

  • captures a lot of dust and passes the fart test!
This thing works! Like many other users, I regret not having invested in a air purifier until now. Being that my little room is right next to a public parking lot and near the street roads, a lot of dust gets collected. A lot. I'm not sure even I have allergies or whatnot (as I don't have a need to take any medicine) but I do find myself sneezing a lot more often prior to getting this purifier. This would often lead to a decrease in my mood and often times even very frustrated. Definitely not good. The Winix 5300-2 is one of the best rated air purifiers on Amazon but I actually had intended to go with its bigger brother, the 5500-2, instead. However, due to shipping restrictions, Amazon was not able to deliver it to my state. The major difference between the two from my recollection is that the 5500-2 actually incorporates a different type of carbon filter that is stronger than the 5300-2 and is therefore able to absorb odor a lot better. After having used the 5300-2 for about two months with it working nonstop 24/7, I am happy to say that it definitely helps in minimizing the dust in my room as evident in my screenshot along with many other reviewers. The amount of dust captured in the pre-screen filter is insane. Prior to the purifier, there would be a thick coating of dust on my glass computer table and I'd have to wipe it every two weeks or so if I wasn't too lazy. With the purifier, I have wiped the table just once these past two months! The difference made is incredible. Be forewarned that the purifier will not be able to capture every single mote of dust. My glass table along with other furniture items still have dust sitting on them but it is nowhere near the level it was prior and that's okay with me. I now no longer sneeze as much which in turn allows for me to be in a much more positive mood as I'm less irritated. It's hilarious when someone mentioned the lights on the unit turning color when they farted in the room. Suffice it to say, yes, this unit pass the fart test for me as well. Farting in the room will have the unit usually picking up the bad air fairly quickly and the color will change to orange. If it's really bad, it will turn red. Quite hilarious but I'm relieved to know I have a quick trial on hand to test if the unit is still working properly! What this unit doesn't do too well is masking or filtering bad odor. I have a neighbor below me that likes to smoke in the balcony. While I personally don't mind the smell of cigarettes wafting into my room, the 5300-2 did little to mask the odor. So although it is able to detect bad odor due to the light changing colors, I'll have to trust whatever technology it is using to clean that air for me because it doesn't really get rid of the actual smell itself. If you're looking to eliminate foul odor, you'll definitely want to pickup the 5500-2 instead. The little extra money spent should be well worth it. The 5500-2 comes with a 1-yr supply of carbon filter replacements so that was very generous of them to provide. The pre-screen filter is washable. Also, my electricity bill only jumped a little with this guy running 24/7 for a full month and I'd say its worth every single penny! ... show more
