### 4/5 — Dark Mode feature

*2026-08-01, version 2.0.2*

The app is beautiful, now it’s time to add a dark mode, please.

### 2/5 — It’s meh

*2026-08-01, version 2.0.2*

Seemed to work well then my unit died. It took me 6 months to get a replacement unit which came without a filter or the right power cord. Now it won’t pair with the app. Very expensive for something that has so many issues

### 3/5 — Rattling

*2026-07-21, version 2.0.2*

Both my minis start to rattle after about a year

### 2/5 — Love the device half baked quality app

*2026-07-17, version 2.0.2*

Love the actual device and filters. The app is half baked and does not pair to your Mila easily.  Customer for 3 years. Just emailed support.

### 2/5 — Noise

*2026-07-17, version 2.0.2*

Became too loud to use after a few months, replacing the filter didn’t fix the issue, too expensive and time consuming to provide any benefits

### 3/5 — Unit died after 5 years

*2026-07-03, version 2.0.2*

As the title states, our Mila died after using it for only 5 years, without warning. Contacted the company and they told us there’s no way to fix it or troubleshoot it. They gave us a 20% off coupon to purchase another one. We didn’t. It’s too bad they can’t refurbish it. Seems like a waste of resources/materials.

While we were using the unit we did love it and found the info it provided very helpful.

### 2/5 — Questionable reliability

*2026-05-07, version 2.0.1*

Mila advertises their air purifiers as "smart," but my experience so far has me questioning. In the app, there are conflicting air change values. For example, in one section it will show 9 air changes per hour at the current fan speed, and in another section it will show 3.2 air changes per hour at the same fan speed; neither of these values matches the value shown on the purifier’s display. Additionally, sometimes the air purifier does not respond to the fan speed adjustments  made in the app. Overall, a very unreliable app for a purported smart device.  
*UPDATE: Contacted Mila’s support; they were not helpful. They were already aware of the issue, but they have not fixed or resolved it—I’ll update this review if/when they resolve the app issues.

### 1/5 — New update is horrible

*2026-03-05, version 2.0.1*

Why did you change what worked perfectly fine. The new firmware and app updates are horrible. The Mila runs way too loud and now it doesn’t even count the air changes per day anymore. It’s stuck at 0/60. I have 2 Milas and they both have the same issue.

### 1/5 — Decent but resets all the time

*2026-02-28, version 2.0.1*

Updating my review - every app update it gets worse and worse. The air purifier is good, but the app resets all the settings at least once a week. So I have to log in, and switch everything back. I won’t buy another one of their purifiers just because of this glitch. It’s terrible.

### 4/5 — Disappointed with new app

*2026-02-19, version 2.0.0*

The new app does not let you set the Mila for a target AQI. With the old app, I could hear it adjusting through out the day to meet the goals. Now it just runs all the time at the same speed like a cheap fan. It also ignores my sleep schedule. Yes, I have reset everything.

### 1/5 — software update terrible

*2026-02-02, version 2.0.0*

our milas got update, now too noisy too often

### 1/5 — Worst product and even worse app

*2026-01-22, version 2.0.0*

All crashes constantly and logs me out. 
Air filters are terribly made. I bought 6, so far 2 have died and 2 have become so noisy that I can’t use them. These have poor quality fans and the bearings go bad. I’ve already had 2 replacements through Mila and one of those caught fire and started smoking. Stay away.

### 1/5 — Why?

*2026-01-19, version 2.0.0*

Ok so you add new settings to automatic but there is no magic! Mika’s do not ramp up or down when needed anymore since the last update. You just gave me my last push to track my 2 Milas. You make it impossible to enjoy anymore

### 3/5 — Amazing app, unreliable hardware

*2026-01-19, version 2.0.0*

I want to love Mila, I really do. Their industrial design is great, their app is wonderful, but the hardware just doesn’t last. I’ve been through *so many* units I’ve lost count.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-07-28, version 2.0.2*

Attractive design and features, but disappointing in quality. Well, it seems to be well built, I’ve had three in a row become very noisy, like the bearings are going out on the motor.
Would not recommend.

### 1/5 — Verified purchase

*2026-07-05, version 2.0.2*

Mila quit working… cant do a reset, and fan wont work

### 1/5 — App great. Physical product rubbish.

*2026-06-08, version 2.0.1*

I invested in five of these air purifiers a couple of years ago. The app is absolutely fantastic - best I’ve seen. HOWEVER, the actual products are now infamous for dreadful reliability. All of mine have failed in one way or another. For the price, it’s an absolute disgrace. American engineering for you, I suppose. Look elsewhere. I’ve gone to a UK brand, which also has cheaper/ less wasteful filters.

### 1/5 — So loud and unpleasant!

*2026-06-02, version 2.0.1*

My Mila air purifier wasn’t cheap and now it’s so loud it’s unbearable.

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-04-16, version 2.0.1*

All over the place., Hard to connect. Seems to have its own mind

### 1/5 — Unit has stopped working after less than a year

*2026-04-15, version 2.0.1*

Unit has stopped working after less than a year

### 1/5 — Too loud and it doesn’t work

*2026-04-08, version 2.0.1*

Since day one it’s been too loud it’s temperamental and it does its own thing ! I hate it and I dislike that you’ve done nothing to fix it

### 1/5 — Cannot get it to turn on with recent update

*2026-03-27, version 2.0.1*

Cannot get it to turn on with recent update (12/21/25) obvious strong odor nearby, device isn’t activating. Even when switched to manual. Uninstalled and reinstalled app and filters. It’s a brick. (03/21/26) still have not been able to turn on this year. It’s been 4+ months since it’s turned on and circulated the air.

### 1/5 — It was perfect

*2026-03-18, version 2.0.1*

Before last update this was great… now with the new way your purifiers work I’ll never buy one more again.

### 1/5 — Such a mess

*2026-03-18, version 2.0.1*

Multiple issues 1/ Around the end of 2025 a major change was made to introduce power profiles. It used to be perfect before, minimal airflow but silent. Now the lowest profile just turns off the Mila fan most of the time, and the next most quiet setting is louder than before. So I cannot use the automatic anymore, instead I have to set it to 10% manual mode, and manually having to switch between modes as needed. 2/ the Mila units around my house (I have 4) often lose connection and require a hard restart 3/ location air quality alerts keep being sent to my phone even though I turned off these alerts, so I keep getting useless ozone alerts every day 4/ the location in the app cannot be specified by zip, only through gps.

### 5/5 — By far the best, if I had more rooms, I’d have more units!

*2026-05-13, version 2.0.1*

Not sure why you’d look elsewhere, but I have had (and regretfully still do) other “premium” air filters and Mila air filters blow them away for a number of reasons. Starting from the top, and rare these days, customer service. They recognize brand loyalty. It’s been years and they still care for my needs for all four (yes four) of the devices we have on our home. As for quality, we’ve gone through massive wildfire smoke issues, horrible AQIs, post home construction, you name it, and these Milas made all of those experiences much better than anyone else we’ve known. I cannot praise this company and their units (including their app) any higher…if they made other types of household goods, I’d trust them just as much (and would go broke investing in them).

### 5/5 — Wife

*2026-03-02, version 2.0.1*

Amazing

### 5/5 — Purifier

*2026-03-01, version 2.0.1*

I have 3 of these They are awesome you can set them however you want they have good settings to choose from.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-02-16, version 2.0.0*

I have had Milas for 6 years now. 
I love them. The app is amazing, the physical unit, the sensors and bells and whistles. Everything is excellent. I now have three, a mini and two Mila 2’s. 
I have had motor bearing noise a few times and support replaced them for me, far outside the warranty window, with no questions asked. Their customer support is top notch and they care about their customers to make exceptions to warranty rules to make things right. Not too many companies do that.
Thanks to all of the Mila team members that go above and beyond. 
I’m a customer for life. ❤️

### 5/5 — Outstanding!

*2026-02-12, version 2.0.0*

I have had many air purifiers with apps, and had been wanting a Mila for years since it first appeared on Crowdfunding!  I have just finished setting  it up and it’s awesome!  So many thoughtful modes which I haven’t had before.  I’m so happy with this it’s the best air purifier I’ve ever had by miles!  I would love the option to be able to have the display permanently lit during the day and it goto sleep when in sleep mode.  This might be just me still exploring.  The app is responsive and when I change a setting my Mila air purifier beeps in acknowledgment straight away without any delay!!

### 5/5 — Best purchase

*2025-11-26, version 1.20.1*

I absolutely love the fact that this machine can pick up the air quality outside and when i am cooking it quickly kicks in to clean up the air …im in love with this machine

### 5/5 — Peace of mind!

*2025-11-23, version 1.20.1*

Love our Mila! We have cats and we also have a whole house fan that brings in a lot of dust and outside air during the warmer months and our Mila works wonderful to keep our air clean!! I love having the app so I can check on my phone to see how things are going and overall I think it’s a fantastic product! If you have a pet, you definitely have to get the filter that is good to have with pets “The critter” and I love how it comes a sock to put on the outside to help. Keep the filter lasting longer that you can wash periodically. I’m actually thinking about getting a smaller one that they have out now that I can put in our bedroom! Thank you Mila for a wonderful product that actually works and also looks great in your home as well and doesn’t scream “I’m a filtration system”!!! ❤️

### 5/5 — Best looking model out there, and even better support staff

*2025-11-02, version 1.20.1*

This is my third Mila I have bought. My first one lasted almost 6-7 years, and just bought two more. They have the best support staff, I am not kidding when I say: I have not experienced a better one in my life. Responsive, understanding and courteous. 

Honestly, it’s the best looking air filter out there and also hooks up digitally to your phone with all sorts of metrics and controls. Silent and powerful for its size. They even came out with a mini version for a smaller footprint in your room.

### 5/5 — Mila Air

*2025-05-02, version 1.19.0*

Just an all around great product. Bought it a month ago and it does more than it’s rated. I will buy 2 more for my house
