1K views
May 29, 2025
It's small and quiet, but the Okaysou AirSlim 6c Air Purifier does a pretty darn decent job cleaning small rooms and areas. The filtration system features a four stage system: filtration trap, HEPA filter, antimicrobial filter and activated carbon filter. Simple, effective. But, as tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ found out through testing, there are some issues with the AirSlim 6C you'll want to know about before you buy one. Are they critical? Not at all. But still, better to know first, right? Watch and learn. Check out the AirSlim 6C at https://amzn.to/2UgfAJ8 and don't forget to use this special discount code too: 5LQ845SD

can this scrub your air clean let's find
0:02
out Dave Taylor here and I'm looking at
0:12
this this is the okay so not sure
0:15
exactly how to pronounce it
0:17
okay so air slim 6c air purifier the
0:21
first thing I want to say is it's really
0:23
light but it's actually a really cool
0:25
little device so let me tell you it has
0:27
a four stage filtration system the whole
0:30
concept is it's gonna pull in dirty air
0:32
and scrub it clean and then push the
0:35
clean air out of the top okay seems
0:37
pretty straightforward just bunch of
0:39
controls on the top welcome back to them
0:41
let me start by telling you about the
0:42
filtration system so it is four stages
0:44
at the outermost level it has a
0:47
filtration trap which catches hair and
0:49
pollen all has sort of junk then you
0:51
have a HEPA filter then you have an anti
0:54
microbial filter and then you have
0:56
activated carbon filter in the middle of
0:58
all of that so let's have a quick look
1:00
at what that all looks like and if it
1:02
turns out you get to it and by tada
1:04
popping it open and then here's the
1:07
whole filtration system and you
1:10
immediately are gonna say aha but this
1:12
is like ink cartridges right so these
1:14
filters cost a hundred and fifty dollars
1:16
no actually they're gonna be 1399 on
1:20
their website and I'll come back to that
1:22
in a bit but if you look you you can't
1:24
really see very easily but there's a
1:26
variety of different filters and screens
1:28
and such going on here so the outer most
1:31
there's a screen and then there's sort
1:33
of the vertical lines of a filter and
1:37
then on the inside you can just barely
1:39
see the black that's the activated
1:41
charcoal I'm not sure what unactivated
1:43
charcoal is but that's about it and then
1:46
otherwise it's a super simple assembly
1:49
it's just a couple of lights at the
1:50
bottom and power so we put this back in
1:54
let's see if I can do this the right way
1:55
let's see so you put this on the top
1:59
part or maybe you put it in the bottom
2:02
part first then you put it in the top
2:04
part and you screw it closed we're good
2:06
to go
2:07
so super easy now on the top there are
2:11
four controls that give you various
2:13
levels of functionality the most
2:15
important of which is power so now can
2:18
you hear so it's on it's now cleaning my
2:23
air and there's three power levels so
2:30
that's the lowest level then there's a
2:33
medium level actually I'm sorry there's
2:35
four speed settings so even at its
2:38
loudest it's SuperDuper quiet they're
2:40
also what they call nightlight settings
2:42
because you can't really see but here
2:44
and we've been give you some shades so
2:45
you can see there's a blue light at the
2:48
bottom we saw the bulbs when I opened it
2:50
up so that you have some level of
2:52
control over and on the top there are
2:55
lights and if I push the button I can
2:58
change the brightness of those again I
3:01
know that's hard to see and then they
3:03
have this light mode which looks to me
3:05
like some sort of way of communicating
3:07
with aliens because it basically just
3:09
changes which lights are on but there's
3:12
no way to actually have this have zero
3:15
illumination so that's one issue that I
3:17
know some people have with this
3:19
particular air filter which is they want
3:21
to have it in their bedroom but there's
3:23
no way to have all the lights off now
3:26
you can do that by covering up the
3:27
bottom but then you're missing out on
3:29
some of its ability to pull air through
3:31
and so you're affecting its filtration
3:33
so that's not a good solution so from a
3:36
design perspective they're being be nice
3:37
if there was a go completely dark mode
3:40
not there maybe it will be in a future
3:42
version okay so it's spec to filter 172
3:46
square-foot room which is a pretty nice
3:48
sized bedroom or main living area if you
3:51
have a small apartment that could cover
3:52
most of your apartment and it does work
3:55
but let me show you it's kind of tricky
3:58
to show you how this works so I was
4:00
thinking about it and I thought hmm
4:02
maybe I can have something that produces
4:04
smoke and then we can see what happens
4:06
to the smoke so my first thought was
4:08
well well we're not going to use that
4:10
match that one didn't actually have a
4:12
tip on it in fact all my matches are
4:16
being weird hmm
4:18
that one looks good okay get rid of all
4:20
these will go here so my first thought
4:22
was let me light a candle if I can fight
4:26
the match there we go so we light the
4:32
match and then I thought I'd light a
4:34
candle and then the smoke from the
4:36
candle would then you'd be able to see
4:39
or even like the smoke from the match
4:40
you'd be able to see it pulling you can
4:42
see it's pulling towards the device so
4:45
that's good because you want it to be
4:47
pulling in some air right but the candle
4:51
itself that I have doesn't produce any
4:54
smoke so that doesn't work instead being
4:58
a former hippie I'm really but we're in
5:00
role that I have incense so incense
5:04
actually works by producing smoke in
5:06
fact the candle I don't know if you can
5:07
see it but it's still producing smoke
5:09
now when you blow out a candle the
5:11
carbon that's left on the wick actually
5:13
produces smoke for a very short period
5:15
of time
5:16
many people what they do is to just lick
5:19
your fingers and touch the wick and so
5:21
it's done but we just filtered it so
5:23
that was better but now let's try with
5:25
incense instead right so incense gives
5:28
us two features number one it's smoky
5:31
because it's the actual chemicals and
5:33
materials in the incense that are
5:37
causing the smell but it also gives us
5:42
the ability to test the properties of
5:46
this filter actually pulling that smell
5:48
out so I'm gonna do that and now can you
5:53
see all that glorious smoke now watch
5:55
where the smokes going you see that so
5:58
it's pretty interesting because you
6:01
don't see it all immediately sucked into
6:03
this device and so I can see smoke up
6:07
here and all around here and it's pretty
6:10
independent of where I put it so I
6:11
thought hmm maybe it's because it needs
6:13
to be higher so if we do this I'm still
6:17
seeing the smoke all over the place some
6:19
of its getting pulled into the system
6:20
but you know the this is not an
6:23
industrial air cleaning system this is
6:25
not gonna pull all the air you're gonna
6:27
just see it all zoomed
6:29
towards the device what I will say is
6:31
that having this next in my incense has
6:34
made my incense way less effective and
6:37
that means that it's working so what's
6:40
happening is that it's not pulling all
6:44
the smoke indirectly but over time it's
6:47
cleaning the air by pulling all the air
6:49
through the filtration system and out at
6:51
the top and if I put my hand here I can
6:54
feel some air coming out and it's a
6:56
little cool because that's just sort of
6:58
the nature of these systems but it's not
7:00
doing anything with temperatures not
7:02
designed to but it is giving me or at
7:05
least theoretically is giving me cleaner
7:06
air now I will say my experience with it
7:09
is pretty good it's a small unit it's
7:13
designed for small spaces this could be
7:15
good maybe to have in your office if
7:17
you're in a cubicle farm and there's a
7:19
lot of toxic chemicals or people smoke I
7:23
don't know what country you'd be in that
7:24
people would be smoking at work or maybe
7:26
at a bar or something you have a back
7:28
room that you want to have a little bit
7:29
cleaner so smaller spaces this can work
7:32
really well and it does work it does
7:34
clean your air I am giving it probably
7:37
the hardest possible task by having my
7:39
incense right there and it's all like
7:42
coming right in my face so that's a lot
7:45
of incense in fact you know what hang on
7:49
just a second let's like get this thing
7:51
to stop burning
7:53
okay so I think we're good there let's
7:56
see there's a little bit coming off of
7:58
the nose but we'll just leave it right
8:00
at the bottom of them and let the okay
8:03
sue actually clean that air now
8:05
obviously again this is an extreme
8:08
challenge this is like extreme air
8:10
filtering and purifying is to give it
8:13
something like incense but it does a
8:16
pretty good job you know I'm not super
8:19
thrilled with this product I think that
8:21
there are some issues with like the
8:22
lights that I think they needed to have
8:24
worked on but it is a nice simple
8:27
solution and not the price it can be a
8:29
really great benefit for people that
8:31
have less than great air quality this is
8:34
a perfect thing to have by your bedside
8:36
especially when you have it on one of
8:37
the lower settings because it's really
8:39
pretty quiet I mean you're not gonna
8:41
even be aware this thing is running and
8:43
it'll just keep your bedroom cleaner it
8:45
could be great for babies or anyone that
8:48
has any issues where they have pollen
8:51
related allergies or they get congested
8:52
while they're sleeping something like
8:54
this can be really good and like I said
8:57
the filters themselves super easy to put
9:00
in and they're gonna run about $13.99
9:02
this is all just coming on to the market
9:04
right now so let's talk about price but
9:08
before we talk about price let me ask if
9:10
you can subscribe to my channel it's a
9:12
little red squares floating down on the
9:14
lower right let's go and click on it if
9:16
you want and subscribe to my channel
9:18
give me some feedback on this give me
9:20
some ideas on next time how I can have a
9:22
better smoke production system so we can
9:26
really see what happens then we can have
9:28
the discussion of whether that's a valid
9:30
way to test it that's another story
9:32
anyway okay this is the okay sue air
9:35
slim 6c air purifier and it will cost
9:39
you fifty nine ninety-eight at
9:41
amazon.com the filters will be thirteen
9:44
ninety nine and they will be on
9:46
amazon.com but if you want to check them
9:48
out you can just go to okay sue calm and
9:51
learn about them too so this is Dave
9:54
Taylor I'm going to
9:57
