Coway
4.5
(34)
"I have the airmega 400s and love love love it. It was a once in a lifetime find at dirt cheap for 100 bucks right before they closed down."
"Models like the Coway Airmega 400S and IQAir HealthPro Plus are often highlighted for their effectiveness."
"I like Coway. Silent, dealt with wildfire smoke perfectly."
"Another vote for Coway. I have pretty bad dust and pollen allergies and am lucky enough to be able to sleep in a separate room that no one else goes in."
"I use Coway from Amazon. So far I have the Airmega 100 for my bedroom and an Airmega 150 for the living area."
"I love the Coway Airmega! I run it all day in the living room."
"We LOVE our Coway one. My allergy and asthma doctor recommends it and another one (that one is like $500 and is bigger but the filter doesn’t need to be changed every year)."
"I went off wirecutter’s list and got Coway Airmega for the rooms with higher ceilings and Levoit for the kid rooms and office (where the litter box is)."
"Coway and Winix came out as the ones most often recommended. The Coway Airmega in particular came out as the top model."
"It is Coway, specifically the Coway AP-1512HH. It has been the highest rated air cleaner on Wirecutter and other rating services for several years now."

Levoit
4.5
(26)
"We have three Levoit Core with the pet filters. Very pleased with them. We do notice that we breathe more easily."
"I have the levoit core 300s (I think that’s the name) and I love it. It displays the current air quality which is fascinating to see how different things affect it."
"Levoit purifier and the amount of dust I have to clean out of it is amazing."
"Between my AC and my Levoit air purifier, my inside AQI in my apartment was under 20."
"I've got two different Levoit air purifier, and they can make a dramatic difference at times--during the Candian wildfires last year, my allergies were crazy even indoors, and buying the air purifier eliminated all of that."
"I use a Levoit 100 on my main floor. Not only does it freshen up the air, it also helps tremendously with indoor smoking. I highly recommend the Levoit 100, or really anything by them."
"Levoit is the brand I use"
"I have a couple of Levoit air purifiers and they work so well. They really help with the pet smells and cooking smells so I'm sure they're making the air cleaner."
"We have lots of Levoit products, air purifiers included, and I really like them! They have specialized filters depending on your focus of use (smoke, chemicals, allergens, etc) and I feel like they work for sure."
"I love my Levoit air purifiers. I have multiple set up through out the house and it makes a big difference as I have 3 cats and 1 dog."

Blueair
4.6
(22)
"So happy to hear you're enjoying cleaner, fresher air at home with Blueair."
"Our 211+ Auto is excellent at tackling airborne pollutants in large spaces."
"I have a Blue Air 411. I was waking up with a sore throat for over a year. Had the idea to run the purifier in our room at night and my sore throat is gone!"
"I love my Blueair that I have in my living room - the auto setting is amazing."
"Whole house or the Blueair 211i Max…we have both! The Blueair 211i Max is fantastic."
"We have a Blueair as well and like it a lot. We keep it near the kitchen and it's light night and day if we happen to burn something in there."
"We got blueairs on deep sale this fall.. Love them so far!! They're cute and extremely quiet and effective."
"I have miserable seasonal allergies and use the Blueair purifiers too. They make a noticeable difference for me."
"I have 3 of them and love them! They've been going for 4 years and when you go to clean them and change the filter you can see what a great job they've done."
"I have two dogs (and asthma lol) and use a couple Blueair purifiers. I recommend them, wait for them to go on sale and you can typically get the higher end models for a decent discount."

Winix
4.4
(22)
"I second the Winix brand. I've had the 9500 for SEVEN YEARS and it's never let me down, still going strong."
"I have 2 Winix C-545. I got them for on sale at Costco for $99 each. They have an app that controls them and shows the main filter life."
"I use the winix 5500. It has a mega mode (which is loud) that cleans a very large room quickly, or that you can run constantly if the air is really polluted."
"I have 2 400s and a 600s in the living room, work great and filters are reasonable"
"Winix 5500-2 is a tank. Serious pulling power, true hepa, and easy to clean weekly!"
"Mine is the same. It's so creepy that you can fart, and right away this things knows and kicks in. I'd recommend a winix for sure."
"I have a Winix, and my allergies are noticeably better since I've gotten it. It filters out pollen and spores."
"Winix spools up when cooking something greasy in the kitchen. No kitchen smells in the bedroom."
"Seconding winix, the filters are pricey but they last a long time if you vacuum the screen and replace the pre-filter especially if you have pets like we do."
"I love my WINIX T810. It’s quite powerful, but so quiet I can run it 24/7 and it doesn’t bother me."

Honeywell

"Honeywell he 300. Our third one. Moved twice. Never an issue. The current time is 5 years."
"I use the large room honeywell air purifiers. The one I have now has been running 24/7 for the last 5 years or so and is still trucking along."
"We use a Honeywell with size A HEPA filters for the most allergen sensitive kiddo. The crap that is pulled to it is visible when the filters are changed. It’s been three years and is still going strong."
"We have had honeywell, air doctor, and medify air, as well as a random amazon one (veva). honeywell has actually been my favorite, and it’s also cheaper than the other 2 besides the veva."
"I have liked my Honeywell HPA series. I have the 100 and 300 in differently sized rooms."

"Love air doctor!!!"

Austin Air
4.6
(5)
"Austin Air. Spendy, but the filters last five years and have more active charcoal than any other out there."
"I have the Austin Air Healthmate plus and I will swear by it. Definitely one of the (very) expensive options, but they guarantee the filter for 5 years."
"Austin Air makes air filters that have the largest active carbon filtration of any I've found. Excellent, all metal, build quality."
"I use an Austin and it improves my air. The filters aren’t cheap but they last longer than any other brand- years versus months"

Xiaomi

Jaspr
4.0
(1)
"If you can afford to save up a few extra hundred bucks, I’d get the Jaspr. Otherwise, coway is great and very affordable."
