The annual IFA tech trade show in Berlin always showcases some of the most innovative and out-of-the-box gadgets, and this year was no exception. Amongst the array of futuristic home appliances at LG’s booth, one product stood out as the quirkiest of them all – the PuriCare Air Purifier with a built-in cat bed.
Yes, you heard it right. LG has combined the functionality of an air purifier with a cozy cat bed in one unique device. The PuriCare Air Purifier features a dome-shaped seat with a built-in heater, providing a warm and comfortable spot for your feline friend to relax in any season. Additionally, the cat bed doubles as weighing scales, allowing you to monitor your cat’s weight easily.
One of the standout features of the LG PuriCare is its ‘pet rest mode’, which reduces noise levels to ensure that the purifier doesn’t disturb your cat while it’s resting. The cat bed sits directly on top of the air purifier, with an attachable stepper for older or less agile cats to access the cozy spot.
In terms of functionality, the air purifier is designed to filter the air in all directions within a 7.5m radius, making it suitable for larger rooms. It is specifically engineered to eliminate pet hairs and odors from the air, creating a clean and fresh environment for both you and your furry companion.
While the concept of a cat bed combined with an air purifier may seem unusual at first, seeing the product in person and understanding its features can make you appreciate its innovation. However, as someone who may not have a cat as a pet, the appeal of this hybrid device might be limited.
LG has not disclosed the availability or pricing of the PuriCare Air Purifier with a cat bed attachment, leaving potential buyers in suspense. Nevertheless, if you’re searching for a truly unique and unconventional home appliance, this product definitely fits the bill.
