If you work at home like me, the air quality monitor is really a MUST-HAVE. When my CO2 or dust matter readings get too high, I just make sure to open a window or door or turn on my fan. This air meter keeps me feeling NOT lethargic and feeling fresh throughout the day. Also, price was pretty decent.

I recently purchased the AirKnight air quality monitor, and I’m very impressed with its performance. It’s easy to set up and provides clear, real-time readings on various air quality metrics. I like that it gives me peace of mind, knowing the air in my home is clean and safe. The device is compact and fits nicely in any room. Overall, a great addition for anyone who cares about their indoor environment. Highly recommended!

I got this monitor primarily to keep track of the VOCs emitted by my 3D printer. Well I have extensive carbon filtering as well as air purification, some of the filaments require an open printing environment and it’s a little bit more difficult to control the output.
I already have an excellent, well tested particle filter that uses a laser sensor and is quite accurate down to the sub micron size particles. For the particulate matter of microplastics in the air, this meter seems to read very slightly higher than my known good meter. By that, I mean that my existing meter will read PM 2.5 at 1 or 2 and this meter might read 3. It also reads a bit higher on PM 10 then my known good meter. I can’t really compare PM 1.0 which is below the accuracy of this particular 9 in 1 unit.
Temperatures are within one or two degrees of each other, which is not critical for me. Humidity is different by approximately 12 or 13% higher on the 9 and 1 Air knight. I’m not sure that I completely trust either one of these to be completely accurate for humidity, based on the 20 or so humidity monitors that I have in my print office.
However I am getting total VOC values the correspond to when the printer is printing out various filaments or not, which is good. Based upon the particulates generated by certain filaments, some of which were incredibly high, I have selected to not use those particular filaments anymore, and when they ran out, they were replaced with brands that produced lower levels of microplastics. Just because something is called PLA+ does not mean that every PLA+ is identical either in mechanical properties, or in its tendency to spew out microplastics when the hot end heats up and filament pours out the nozzle. The highest values are always when initially extruded and they usually settle down after the printer has been running for 5 or 10 minutes.
I will use the same strategy for TVOC and HCHO. I will start tracking these values for the various filaments, and use those to determine whether or not to continue to use them, as well as to determine whether or not my HEPA filtering and carbon canisters are effective at ensuring a toxic free environment.
A nice feature, frankly one that is almost unexpected these days, is that the 9-in-1 monitor included a USB power supply and a USB-A to USB micro charge cable. Almost nobody supplies chargers any longer, and this is greatly appreciated. While the unit did power up immediately without being plugged in to charge, the battery level was low, and it was great to be able to immediately plug in the unit without having to go search through all my chargers to find a compatible one.
Honestly, there are less expensive air quality monitors available on Amazon, but this is the nicest one I’ve come across thus far and the features are worth a lot more to me. Hopefully it is accurate, and stays that way. At the very least, I am looking forward to it providing relative values between the various types of materials that I run, in order to ensure a healthy printing environment.
The unit will power off automatically at the 11-hour mark. This was initially surprising as my intent was to leave and running all the time. No worry, as a quick read of the instruction book explained that it shuts off automatically to recalibrate. This can be bypassed by pressing and holding the left button for 6 seconds to change the mode. It’s not entirely clear whether or not it still performs a recalibration at the 11-hour mark after doing this, however it does continue to operate for 11 hours, and the instructions seem to indicate that it will automatically recalibrate but stay on. I’ll be watching for shifting of values for the same printed materials to see if that holds true. At the moment, it’s good to see that it did not shut off overnight during a very long print.
As more as learned about the reliability of the readings, and my results with the various filaments, I will update this review with new information. That includes whether or not there are any failures or any great epiphanies!

I’ve only had this for a few days, but it’s helped me in a few different ways. I have a 3d printer in my room, and I’ve wanted one of these to make sure it wasn’t putting off too many harmful chemicals or particulates into my area. This meter can detect the most dangerous outputs, especially 3D printing, VOCs, small particulate matter, and Formaldehyde. Styrene is suspected to cause cancer, but Formaldehyde and small particulate matter have been proven to cause cancer after long-term exposure. If I didn’t have this meter to tell me exactly what I was breathing in, I could have put myself in a dangerous situation.
Another thing I didn’t realize was that my room had a higher than normal level of CO2, which is probably one of the reasons I’ve been a little lethargic when spending time in here. It’s starting to get cold, so the windows have been closed recently. I opened the windows and started feeling much better.
My one gripe with this is the battery life. It says it has an auto shutoff feature after 11 hours, but it doesn’t even last 11 hours. On a full battery, I get maybe 4 hours from it. It must be plugged in to get the most out of that feature. I guess that also leads to another point. It’s 2024, and it still uses a Micro USB charger. I don’t even own any micro USB cables anymore. I know it comes with cable and power brick, but still.
Overall, I highly recommend this product. It has a lot of nice and useful features that can save you someday.

As someone who has suffered with asthma their whole life, I could not wait to get my hands on this monitor. While I strive to keep my indoor air quality clean and healthy, sometimes you can’t see, smell or tell when there are things in the air that can set off an asthma attack. This monitor may help me identify reasons for sudden asthma attacks. Even if it doesn’t, it will provide me peace of mind, knowing I’m breathing clean air. I love that it’s portable, too! I can keep it in our TV room while I’m in there and take to the bedroom when it’s time to sleep or set it in my home office during the workday. And I can do all this on a full battery charge! I don’t have to keep it plugged in all the time.
Set up is simple and the display is bright and easy to read. No fumbling with apps or complicated settings. The hardest part was setting the clock. It’s great!
Now I can breath easy knowing that my indoor air quality is as good as it can be!
