Design And Usability
A small and lightweight air purifier house in a sleek, cylinder shape size. JINPUS GL-2103 comes in at only 4.9 x 7.6 x 4.9 inches and 1.2 pounds weight. The portable size is perfect for tabletop, kitchen, caravan, trailer, washroom, and litterbox placement as it takes up very little space. You can bring it along for travel considering how dirty the room air quality can be in a hotel. Build quality is OK with a heavy reliance on cheap plasticky materials. The good thing is you can easily remove the bottom panel for filter change and it will snap back tightly with no chance of leakage.
With a familiar bottom-to-top airflow system, JINPUS GL-2103 is very easy to operate. Powered by a single button, press once to turn on the machine with a delicate blue light, double press will enter into sleep mode with dimmed down light and 8 hours shutoff timer. Triple press with turn-off JINPUS air purifier. The nightlight function adds soft blue light that decorates your room with added security for children sleeping alone. There is also a 5 feet long USB power cord that you can plug into a laptop or wall plug for 24×7 operation.
