Best AirPurifier unlimited budget
An IQ air HealthPro 250 XE is considerably better for the same price, but of course, it's quite ugly; they've had the same design for 30 years. Another option would be a Coway Airmega 450, but I personally don't like the treated green filters they use.

Coway Sale - Need to pick one
Going by the AHAM 2/3 rule, your 15' x 15' x 10' bedroom needs minimum Clean Air Delivery Rates (CADRs) of 188 CFM. The Coway Airmega 250S can achieve that, although I don't know if you have allergies, high pollution levels, or other circumstances that need increased CADRs. The Coway Airmega 450 doe

Are Airmega cylinders worse that boxes? I cannot find definitive answers to this.
Honestly, I'm not sure if you'll really notice a difference in terms of performance and getting your air clean. My understanding is that the difference comes from potential longevity of the filters. Having a dedicated removable pre-filter and regular cleaning will prolong the life of the HEPA filter

2,720 ft³ space, 2 adults, 1 medium dog, UK = Coway 350?
Yep, should be adequate for the space. In the USA, Airmega 350 debuted just under a year ago. It seems to have good reviews so far. Keep in mind the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) listed for it applies to the highest airflow speed/setting only. Lower settings have lower CADRs which reduces cleaning

Need a single air purifier for entire 650 sq ft apartment
You won't reduce visible dust with a conventional HEPA purifier unless you buy multiple hugely oversized units. This would be loads of money. Visible dust is large and heavy compared to "invisible" pollutants like PM10, PM2.5, and PM0.1. See the sticky post at the top of this subreddit. Our FAQs pag

Over thinking and analyzing every review
I assume the 500 sq. ft. you mentioned in another comment is an open space without walls. (You need a purifier for each room, as they can't overcome walls and doors.) If the 500 sq. ft. is open, you would need a minimum of 334 CFM CADRs. These figures are for normal pollution levels. You may have el

Advice for studio spacr
Unfortunately if there is wildfire smoke, Smoke CADR needs to equal your studio's area (assuming an 8 ft. high ceiling). So Smoke CADR should total 900 CFM. FYI: the Smart Air Blast MKII composite CADR of 950 is in m3/h. This coverts to 559 CFM. Do you already own the Airmega 450 and the Airmega 240
