Please read the AutoModerator comment. Air purifiers aren't good at reducing visible dust as it's larger and heavier than "invisible" pollutants like PM10 and PM2.5. The same goes for pet hair. Sans is terrible. Shark is mediocre. Avoid both. Coway is generally one of the highest quality consumer-gr

Per the AHAM 2/3 rule, a 732 sq. ft. apartment would need minimum CADRs of 488 CFM. The most stylish is probably the IQAir Atem X. It's made in Germany. But it has a top Smoke CADR of 415 CFM. It's also very expensive at $1,399.99. The Coway Airmega ProX has a top Smoke CADR of 568 CFM. It has wheel

So unfortunately cigarette or marijuana smoke isn't just particulates, but also gases/vapors/odors/VOCs. You need many pounds of activated carbon and/or other sorbent media for gases/vapors/odors/VOCs. Heavyweight sorbent media purifiers are very loud, very expensive (~$600 and up), and clean the ai

Purifiers aren't good at reducing pet hair, if that's a benefit you're after. It's very large and heavy compared to microscopic pollutants like PM2.5. Only hair floating very close to a purifier's intake(s) will be captured. The two Levoit Vital models are definitely better than their Core series. T

With that budget the best option would be a Coway ProX as it's around $650 at the moment in beige. https://cowaymega.com/products/airmega-prox Just the filter replacement costs are still high, but for particulates you probably only need to change every 2 years. The Coway ProX is better than the Cowa

What are you and u/BatFull9947 talking about? 😂 For particulates, I've recommended loads of purifiers that are nowhere near $1,000. And if they tend to be expensive, I tell people to not pay full price. E.g., the Coway Airmega 400 ($649 to $349) and the Coway Airmega ProX ($999 to $649), both of whi

For 600 ft^2, and assuming 8 foot ceilings, you've got a volume of 600*8 =4,800 ft^3. To get 5 ACH, you need a CADR of 4800/12 = 400 CFM. There's no single purifier that gives that CADR without being loud. The closest is the Smart Air Blast MKII, which, according to Housefresh.com, is 41.9 dBA at 37

It has the highest CADR while being quieter than your two options listed. I have one in my living room and it’s great, although it energy inefficient. It’s essentially just a modified Chinese filter fan with a grill. I also have an IQair healthpro plus and wouldn’t recommend it very highly. It’s jus

See the AutoModerator comment. Purifiers aren't good at reducing visible dust particles as they're large and heavy compared to "invisible" pollutants like PM2.5. An even stronger argument could be made for dog hair. If you don't have one already, I'd get a good quality bagged vacuum cleaner with a H

Assuming you haven't picked something out already... The Medify Air MA-112 (V2.0) is powerful, but loud on the top airflow speed/setting. Per the AHAM 2/3 rule, a 1,872 sq. ft. space would need minimum CADRs of 1,248 CFM. So any one consumer-grade purifier will fall short. I would go with the Coway
