Summary
A compact 45 W desktop fume extractor built for the Falcon A1 10 W and A1 Pro lasers, with a replaceable two-stage filter and dual 63 mm/76 mm exhaust interfaces. Check two things before buying: whether the exhaust hose is actually in the box, and whether the purifier is the right fit for your material and ventilation setup, since odor control varies by job.
Strengths
- Compact 18.5 cm square footprint that fits on a desk beside a Falcon A1.
- Two-button plug-and-play setup with no app or Wi-Fi pairing.
- Replaceable OEM consumable with a documented part number (4008060401).
- Some owners report good visible-smoke capture and reduced odor on wood and slate.
- Multiple US sales channels, including B&H at $179 with free two-day shipping.
Weaknesses
- No independent instrumented test of airflow, noise, or particle capture exists for this exact model.
- Residual wood odor is a recurring complaint, even when visible smoke is captured.
- Filter availability has historically been spotty, with owners reporting months-long waits.
- Replacement filters cost $39.99 a kit, and the unit can load quickly on heavy cutting.
- Warranty length and hose inclusion are not consistently documented.

Full research notes and sources
Filtration and airflow
Published figures are 99.97% at 0.3 μm and 115 m³/h, but these are manufacturer/retailer claims with no independent test. One manual mirror lists 97.0% at 0.3 μm for one stage and 99.97% for the dual-layer system, and marketing imagery alternates between 99.7% and 99.97%. The EPA notes that consumer activated-carbon filters have limited, pollutant-specific performance, so treat the percentage as a marketing figure rather than proof that exhausted wood-smoke gases are safe to breathe in a closed room. Use outdoor ventilation wherever feasible, especially for sustained cutting.
Noise
The only published figure is under 68 dB, with no per-speed table. One user blog reports 42 dB(A) in Eco mode and 58 dB(A) in Turbo mode, while a retailer spec chart lists about 58/62/66.7 dB at speeds 1/2/3. These are seller or single-user numbers with no disclosed measurement distance. At 66.7 dB the unit is audible, not silent, and placement and room background noise matter.
Filters and running costs
The OEM replacement kit (part 4008060401, EAN 6977905742202) contains five pre-filter cotton pads plus one high-efficiency main/carbon filter, priced $39.99 on the Creality US store, with a dealer-oriented catalog reference of $49.99. Filter core dimensions are 178 × 178 × 70 mm and pads 178 × 178 × 8 mm. Creality charges $6.99 shipping on orders under $49.99, so a single kit costs $46.98 before tax. There is no subscription, but consumables can dominate ownership cost: two kits a year is $79.98, four is $159.96, six is $239.94, plus shipping if ordered separately. The manufacturer gives no defensible filter service interval; owner anecdotes range from a few leather and basswood pieces to several months of use. At the published 45 W rating and an illustrative 5 h/week, electricity is about 11.7 kWh, or roughly $2.34 a year at $0.20/kWh.
Is it worth it?
At $179 the YW45 is a reasonable indoor option for Falcon A1 owners who value integrated fit and compact size, and B&H lists it at $179 with free two-day shipping. Above about $200, universal extractors with published per-speed noise and airflow data are stronger alternatives. Micro Center lists it at $219.99 for in-store pickup only. Owners should confirm hose inclusion, warranty terms, and filter stock before buying, since the US replacement-filter page has shown pre-order status.
Which model this is
This page covers the Creality Falcon YW45 desktop smoke purifier for the Falcon A1 10 W and A1 Pro, manufacturer part 4008060326 (US), with regional SKUs 4008060323 (AU) and 4008060319 (EU). It is not the Falcon AP1 mini, the 100 W air purifier for open-frame engravers, or the FDM/resin air purifier. Do not confuse it with those models.
