Costco is selling new online for $99.99 after $30 off
Costco bundle comes with 2 extra sets of filters which is $60 when they go on sale. So you're only paying $40 for a brand new unit from Costco compared to $65 for a refurb.

The woot page indicates one HEPA filter and four carbon filters, but new this unit comes with two HEPA filters and five carbon filters. I suspect it is a listing error as the one of each extra is shipped in the unit whereas the extras are outside the unit.

Currently $99 at Costco through the end of the month.

If having issues connecting the unit to WiFi - move your phone away from the unit. This is common for most smart devices. Start the setup process in a room with the unit, then once the unit is trying to connect, take your phone away from the unit. I replicated the connection issues by sitting in the room with two units, the.n resolved the issue by walking into a different room.

I have Google home and connected this successfully. Lol but can't figure out how to turn it on via voice command. Any ideas? Fan and air purifier is a no go =/

Bought four new ones from Costco a few months back. All but one have the fan wobble issue. I thought they took care of that? Perhaps I got old stock?

I reached out to support over a week ago and haven't heard back. I love these things but striking out with support and fan issues.

I would bet on this having one HEPA filter. New from Costco you get two, refurb from Winix is usually $69 and you get one HEPA filter/ 4 or however many extra carbon filters.

I also wish these didn't have the fan wobble issue, I have 4 of these and two got the wobble after about a year and a half/two years.

Here's for Alexa. You have to reconnect every couple of weeks though which is super annoying.

"Alexa, ask WINIX to turn on my air purifier."

"Alexa, ask WINIX for speed setting to low (or medium, high, turbo, auto, sleep mode)"

 "Alexa, ask WINIX to turn on plasmawave."

"Alexa, ask WINIX for filter status."

 "Alexa, ask WINIX for indoor air quality."

"Alexa, ask WINIX for outdoor air quality."

 "Alexa, ask WINIX for my air purifier model name."

 "Alexa, ask WINIX for the phone number (or the location, or the business hours) of the customer care center."

 "Alexa, "ask WINIX about the status of my device."

Would this help filter some airborne dust from my 1000sq ft basement?
