Shark 3-in-1 Max Summary -
The Shark 3-In-1 Max Air Purifier is a high performance air purifier first and foremost. But it also can function as a competent fan and space heater (while still purifying air). With a well-designed remote and LCD screen, the 3-In-1 Max makes adjusting air quality and temperature quick and simple. The combination of its 1,000 square foot coverage area and its exceptional purification performance makes this air purifier one to consider.
Shark 3-in-1 Standard Summary -
The Shark 3-in-1 Air Purifier does the job of 3 appliances - a fan, a space heater, and an air purifier. It takes up a bit more space than any one of these products might individually, but its performance in each category is worth it. Regardless of the mode selected, the HEPA filter is engaged and your air will be cleaner. Shark utilizes a proprietary filter that they claim captures 99.98% of large, small, and micro-sized particles.

Just bought one of these today and i will say it works very well. I bought it on sale at $330 from best but and its MSRP is 450. I believe at this price poihnt you should definitely get wifi in an appliance. I have blueairs and other heaters/fans with wifi capabilities so i can have them set on a timer or on night mode and they come back on when needed and shark definitely should have done this. My only gripe really.
Just picked up one on sale at Best buy for $200
Just wanted to say thank you so much for this video. I was thinking of buying one but I didn't want to regret it cuz I never heard of this brand. But maybe I like what they can offer.
You're welcome, I'm glad the video was helpful!
Would like to see the Shark HP301 NeverChange against the Standard HC452!
I like the oscillating and WIFI feature but don't need the cool/heat or remote features. Can it be programmed to turn on daily for 30 minutes?
Which has the better filter between Standard HC452 and HC502? Filter Cost? Can you use the better filter on the either? The price appears to be about the same, so not sure which is best for just air purifying.
Are you doing a best air purifier for 2024 video? I just picked up an HC-502 and would be interested in seeing how it compares to the best. I liked your review of the unit and so far am very impressed by its performance and versatility.
Yes, we are finalizing it now. It's with my video editor, he's just making the last few changes and then we'll be ready to publish it.
Could you test the blueair healthprotect and dust magnet? They make a lot of claims on rhese units and there are zero proper reviews on the internet.😅
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll add those to our list.
Can you review the sirena vacuum?? Its so expensive but apparently a great vacuum and air purifier!
I will add it to our list. Thanks for the suggestion.
Can you tell me what you think about the shark hp 200? I just brought 1 and I can't find alot of reviews on this unit
It's not one I've tested. I don't have a strong viewpoint on it.
What's the difference between the HC501 and the HC502? I just ordered the HC501 for a 300 square feet room.
I'm not 100% sure, but generally when you're talking single digit trailing model differences between Shark models the difference is color and/or attachments and/or retailer exclusivity (suffice to say...basically nothing).
Hi there. Do you recommend this product. We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids) and have a cat. In a 2000sqft home.
Kindly steer me in the right direction. Thank you.
It's a great purifier, especially the Max version. You'd probably want 2-3 of the Max version for a home that size.

How does the Shark HC501 perform for heating a 300 square foot fully insulated he/she/kids shed?
We haven't tested that model, but I would guess performance is going to be similar to the model featured in this video.
For just 300 sq. ft. I would think it would do a fine job if you put it in the middle of the room and keep it on high.
I recently found out that the the dorm I am going to live in for my first year in college tends to have mold build up, no Air Conditioning, and is not very clean in general. Everyone always recommends an air purifier, but I am also looking to cool the space which is around 300 square feet, so I'm having trouble deciding on a product that either combines the purifying+cooling feature, or getting them separately. I looked at the Dyson ones, but my research showed that they are great for cooling, but don't purify the air too well. Would you recommend either of these Shark products from this video or something else?
I would actually say the opposite is true of Dyson...cooling is just fine (as it's just a fan, no active AC), while purification is excellent...but the whole thing is more expensive than many other options.
All that said, I do think the Shark 3-in-1 is a much better overall option if you need the cooling performance. This feels like an obvious choice for your needs.
@@ModernCastle thank you so much, I’m going to try to get one on sale, because I looked and the only bad thing people say is the plastic smell from the heating mode but I won’t use it much
@@dIandz You're welcome
Can you please do a comparison with the Dyson HP series ?
Gotcha covered right here - moderncastle.com/dyson-hp04-vs-hp02-vs-hp01/
@@ModernCastle Thanks a lot . Can you please do a Dyson HP 04 versus the Shark 3 in 1 max air purifier?
@@nishachavan5213 I can add that to our list, thanks for the suggestion.
These are pretty good but pricey. The oscillation gets janky over time and the heater should be improved upon to heat up the room rather than just a 2 to 3 degree warmer.
How long have you had yours?
@@ModernCastle one year
what does it sound like? i don’t think i heard a demo
My apologies...regrettably we forgot to do our standard noise demo in this video :(
Hmm…I’m thinking of buying the max considering my apartment building is old and my apartment has that old smell and dusty feeling. Hopefully the max works. My apartment is about 660 square feet.
It will work, but you still might want a small one for your bedroom
fan mode uses a lot of energy?
Not something we were able to test, unfortunately.
And Shark doesn't provide any info as to the power consumption on different modes.
I was looking for this info too!
Can you control it with an app?
There is no app
How come you don't factor in consumables costs?
We do factor it in when it's our comparison or best of lists.
My comment keeps getting deleted.
I'm trying to say how interesting it would be to measure what air quality would be after making and testing the cheap DIY project of duck taping a box fan to a bunch of hepa filter screens into a square air purifier.
Then compare the air quality and costs with the regular air purifiers that you've already reviewed.
Could even try measuring different brands of hepa filter screens to see which one is most effective with the box fan trick.
Not sure why your comments are being deleted. This is the first I've seen the comment.
In any case, I absolutely agree and that's something we plan on creating / testing later this year. I'm really interested to see if it actually works as well as it seemingly should.
@@ModernCastle I think maybe it was the youtube algorithm being anti-user again.. I was trying to link to a jpeg showing the DIY box and the comment kept disappearing.
And great, cant wait to see it.
@@TheKirklandGamer Ah...yeah, that makes sense. Any type of link they are increasing aggressive to moderate.
An easy test would have been checking the air quality 2 hours after doing nothing.
Enunciate…? 🤔
…and heater, how does it perform in a standard size room?
It's as good as any other space heater I've used. It's not a miracle worker, but for small to mid-sized rooms it makes a sizable impact.
