I've been thinking of getting it what are your thoughts on longevity of it? Will it last at least a few years? I also see in some Amazon reviews that measuremen

  I've had an Awair Element for about 16 months. The only time I've experienced what you may mean by "stuck" measurements was about a month ago, when PM2.5 was puzzlingly and worryingly at a consistently higher than usual level for a couple of days. Trial and error eventually suggested that there was a piece of dust stuck in the sensor or something like that. Upon blowing on the sensor, the measurement returned to normal.

  After a year I don’t see any issues with it, the sensors don’t seem to have drifted or changed in their responsiveness at all. It has crashed once or twice and stopped responding but was fine after a power cycle. With any IoT device I’m wary about longevity re app support, I can’t say how long Awair will support this device or whether they’ll provide access to it after they stop, but I’m less concerned for a device like this vs, say, a major appliance.
