The Shark NeverChange5 Air Purifier HP072UK is designed for homes seeking significantly cleaner air, especially those with allergies and pets. Its key benefit is its advanced 4-layer filtration system, including a washable pre-filter, which dramatically extends the main HEPA filter's life up to 5 years, reducing maintenance. While effective, note that the Anti-Odour scent cartridge requires periodic replacement to maintain its fresh scent output.
