I am now the proud owner of one of @Engineer_Wong's Air Fanta 3Pro air filters.
I Purchased from Amazon UK (link below).
A quick honest overview of first impressions follows in my thread of notes, thoughts and images.

It was well packaged and goods well protected.
It's very lightweight.
The components are high quality, well designed & aesthetically pleasing.
It took about 2 minutes to assemble.
Takes a few moments to adjust the filters into position and seat them all correctly.

The fan plate also takes a little persuasion to seat correctly over the filters but it's very simple.
Within no time you have a complete unit. Just connect the power leads together & plug into the mains.
The fan speed can be adjusted by moving the voltage dial on the power:

The unit is considerably smaller than a conventional CR box.
The pleats on the filter panels are very tight giving a high filtration surface area. The metal grille to the outer sides is a nice feature.
Makes sure filters stay protected & keeps fingers away from filter media.

Noise:
This is always a subjective matter and I haven't had chance yet to measure the actual dBA levels.
However, I have to be honest & say that it is loud on maximum speed. Suitable for some situations but too loud for my home office for example.
It's whisper quiet on low.

The speed can easily be adjusted to find a noise level that suits however, what I'd really want to know is CADR at each voltage and I'm unsure if this info is available @Engineer_Wong?
It runs from 0 to 12.7v and I am not overly disturbed by anything up to about half-way/6V.

As you'd expect, it eats PM2.5 and the outflow is very clean (see image with PM2.5 sensor on outflow) and it brought the office level down quickly; it's bouncing around 0 to 2ug/m3 after about 20 minutes.

I'm very pleased with the unit, it's design, weight, portability, quality & cost.
It's a great development & I look forward to buying other products from Air Fanta as they become available here.
Having been involved in DIY filters from the early days, this is great to see.

Lastly, an image to demonstrate the scale of the device. I've popped a standard roll of kitchen paper next to it (26.5cm tall) which I hope gives a good idea of dimensions without needing to grab tape measures and stuff.
Thanks for making this product Adam.
