Looking for a basic, no frills purifier

The Flex model has carbon, I have one. You choose the filter you want. So you get their best filter, I think 90 bucks at 450i size, has carbon + more material than most affordable hepa units. 60 dollars is just hepa. They have a middle one in between for like 70 or 80. So for good carbon, get the be

AirDoctor versus Coway versus Levoit

If you can afford 800 then probably consider AustinAir, people on here seem to hold it in high regard and one of their good units is 750 I think. I could never afford that, and have never had Air Doctor,.so I can't say anything on that. I do love my Levoits but they are good affordable units, that l

Looking for a basic, no frills purifier

Alen 350i or 450i, the 450i Flex has no ionizer and no smart features, and is 50 dollars cheaper. The 350i might be big enough, definitely for smaller room.

Broke my heart that they just wind up in the landfill when you return them. The 45i is really worth it. There’s an Alen Flex on Amazon for $350,

Do any models <$300 mitigate smells at all?

Just spend another 50 bucks and you can get an Alen Flex. Or a RIA Breezeguard (370) Most normal air purifiers have white filters that filter dust + particles. Odor molecules are different so other methods will be used to capture odors. (I also use moisture bags + have a carbon filter behind box fan

Air Purifier for Odor Removal

Alen Flex is what I got primarily for odors, but it's around 350 range I think. But it has a lifetime warranty you will end up saving money probably as others will break after some years. (Lifetime warranty if you stay in the filter replacement program, you can do I think every 9 or 12 months, and t

I need help finding the right air purifier.

Yes, sleeping next to a litter box seems like a bad idea imo. OP I would also advise to move the litter box as far as possible, then put air purifier between you + the litter box so it sucks up that related air before it gets to you. Maybe even a partition of some sort could help angle air to keep i
