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

See the AutoModerator comment. Air purifiers aren't good at reducing visible dust or pet hair as both are large and heavy compared to "invisible" pollutants like PM2.5. See the sticky post at the top of the subreddit and our other subreddit resources on dust: I need an air purifier for dust. What sh

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

I agree trying a different set of filters is a good suggestion, which I why I've already done that myself! 😄 A couple of weeks ago I contacted Coway, and they sent me a new set of filters. They've been running for about five days, and emit the same odor, though it's possible they're airing out faste

With a 150 ft^3 bedroom, you need a CADR of 100 to get the recommeded 5 air changes per hour (assuming 8' ceilings). You could put something like a Coway AirMega ProX in the bedroom. On silent mode, I measured it at a CADR of 170, and there's nothing wrong with overkill. And it's probably quieter th

I appreciate the upvote. I was blissfully unaware that down voting was even a thing here. I am pretty new to this forum and hadn't noticed. Kindof sad that I know that now! I appreciate all your calculations.. I have done much of the same trying to find the right combo of dB, CFM, and cost. And yeah

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

Levoit will still clean your air. They even publish PM2.5 CADRs for most of their models. While the Levoit Vital series and EverestAir perform very well, they may not have the build quality of the more premium Coway units. Is it better to slightly oversize units so they’re effective on medium/quiet

Hi, I created the newest iteration of the Buying Guide. I didn't include the Coway Airmega 300 because in the past, the Coway Airmega 400 would be discounted frequently enough to justify its purchase instead. Annoyingly, there were no good Black Friday or Christmas sales for the Airmega 400 or Airme

In the future, you may want to make a post in this subreddit instead. That would probably yield more views and responses. 😊 Since medium to large is very subjective, it's hard to give exact recommendations. "Cleaning performance" is usually best measured by the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR). Higher
