Clean Sense IQ senses air quality and auto-adjusts power to constantly maintain clean air in your home, while reporting results in real time.

As a pet owner with a penchant for cleanliness, I was on the lookout for an air purifier that could handle pet hair, dander, and other allergens effectively. The Shark HP102PETBL Air Purifier seemed to tick all the boxes, so I decided to give it a try. After using it for several weeks, I can confidently say that it has exceeded my expectations in various aspects.
The first thing that struck me about the Shark Air Purifier Pet is its compact and sleek design. Weighing just 6 lbs., it fits perfectly on smaller surfaces like nightstands and desktops, making it incredibly portable. This portability is a huge plus for someone like me who likes to move the purifier between different rooms, such as the bedroom and living room.
One of the standout features of this air purifier is its Clean Sense IQ technology. This smart feature tracks the air quality in real-time and automatically adjusts the power to maintain optimal air purity. I found this particularly useful because it takes the guesswork out of adjusting settings manually. The real-time reporting is displayed clearly, allowing me to see the immediate impact on air quality.
The True HEPA filter is another highlight. It captures 99.98% of airborne particles, including allergens, dust, and pet dander. This is particularly beneficial for those who suffer from allergies. Since using this purifier, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in my allergy symptoms, which is a testament to its effectiveness.
For pet owners, the activated carbon filter is a game-changer. It powerfully captures pet odors, ensuring that my home smells fresh despite having two dogs. The Pure Air MicroForce technology uses a powerful, fast fan to deliver four speeds of purification based on the air quality around you. This ensures that even when the air quality dips due to cooking or other activities, the purifier quickly brings it back to optimal levels.
The Shark HP102PETBL Air Purifier also exceeds HEPA standards with its Anti Allergen NANOSEAL technology. This feature captures more micropollutants than standard HEPA filters, trapping 99.98% of large, small, and micro-sized particles. This added layer of protection gives me peace of mind knowing that my home is safeguarded against common air pollutants such as dust, dander, allergens, and smoke.
One of the most impressive aspects of this air purifier is its ability to clean up to 500 square feet based on one air change per hour. This makes it perfect for smaller rooms such as bedrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, and nurseries. Despite its small size, it packs a powerful punch in terms of purification capabilities.
In terms of noise levels, the Shark Air Purifier Pet operates quietly even at higher speeds. This is a crucial factor for me as I often run it in my bedroom at night. The quiet operation ensures that my sleep is not disturbed while still maintaining clean air throughout the night.
Overall, the Shark HP102PETBL Air Purifier has proven to be an excellent investment for maintaining clean air in my home. Its combination of advanced features like Clean Sense IQ, True HEPA filter, and Anti Allergen NANOSEAL technology make it a standout product in its category. Whether you’re a pet owner or someone looking to improve indoor air quality, this air purifier offers powerful and efficient purification in a compact and portable design. Highly recommended!### Product Specifications
