Pros: 360 degree airflow, filter change light, user friendly
Cons: Loud on high setting

Review: The 50250 Enviracare HEPA Air Purifier by Honeywell is everything you would expect from environmentally friendly air purifier. This True HEPA air purifier boasts some great features including a charcoal pre-filter, 360 degree airflow and an electronic air filter monitor so you always know when to change your filter. Despite its size the Enviracare HEPA purifier removes 99.97% of all airborne particulates, but what we love most about this HEPA air filter, however, is its effectiveness. To find an air purifier at such a low price that's this effective at eliminating pet dander, pollen, mold spores and other household allergens is rare and with a 375 square foot range it's one of the best in its class. However, there have been complaints about how loud the fan can become on some settings. But with such a powerful air filter being given away at such a reasonable price it's simply too good to pass up.

Pros: Easy to use, Effective, Slim tower design, Washable filter
Cons: No remote control

Review: The Honeywell HFD-120 Air Purifier is designed to remove up to 99.97 percent of air contaminants and allergens like dust, pollen, pet dander and tobacco smoke in small to medium sized rooms. Unlike your conventional purifier, this one features a permanent, washable pre-filter. You just need to immerse it in warm water each time it needs cleaning and place it back to the unit. Aside from effortless clean-up, it also lets you save money since you don't have to buy any replacements. This air purifier is coupled with a decent number of features including a LED touch-button control that provides three fan speeds, an oscillation function for maximum air flow and an electronic filter-check indicator that reminds you when the unit needs to be cleaned. The slim tower design does not take up a lot of space and the built-in ionizer can be easily maintained by using a vacuum. With its whisper-quiet operation, you can take a rest and sleep with absolutely no distractions. The Honeywell HFD-120 Air Purifier is covered with a 5-year limited warranty and performs 18 times more efficient compared to others. The only thing that could make it better is if it includes a remote control so that you won't need to go directly to the unit but other than that, it is very effective and it offers a huge difference as it makes breathing a whole lot easier.

Pros: Effective, Multiple fan speeds, Simple to use, Quiet, Has indicator lights
Cons: Large form factor, Not ideal for removing odors

Review: Air purifiers are not only for asthma sufferers or people with allergies, they are also made for parents, pet owners or even those who just want to sleep better and minimize dust in their apartment or bedroom. The somewhat large form factor of the Whirlpool Whispure AP51030K makes it less ideal for those with small spaces but it is great for large rooms measuring up to 500 square feet. The True HEPA filter traps 99.97% of particles and it can filter the air 4.8 times per hour. Aside from electronic controls and multiple fan speeds, a turbo and a sleep mode are both present for fast or quiet performance. While it has a Charcoal pre-filter for eliminating odor, it is one of the AP51030K's weakest points as it doesn't get rid of unwanted odor quickly. That said, you still need to open the window for a moment if you want the irritating smell caused by cigarettes, cooking or other factors to completely go away. On the contrary, the Quiet Partner System enables it to be effective and quiet at the same time. The AP51030K is not as noisy as other air purifiers, even when placed on turbo mode (highest setting). This means that you won't have to turn the unit off to enjoy a peaceful night or sleep. Separate indicator lights, one for the HEPA filter and another for the charcoal pre-filter, alert you when it's time to change the filters and Built-in Handles allow easy transport. The Whirlpool Whispure AP51030K looks like a regular air purifier, nothing special or eye-catching, but don't let its exterior fool you. It is more effective compared to modern-looking, space-saving and similarly priced air purifiers and it makes a good buy for those who fail to see the difference between having one and having none. Finally, a reassuring 30-day Money Back Quiet Guarantee and a 5-year Limited Warranty rounds out the package.

Pros: Great filtration system, long lasting filters, very quiet
Cons: Fan glitches have been reported, instructions can be unclear

Review: The QuietFlo HEPA air purifier by Hunter is a powerful air filter that filters all the air in a room up to 6 times per hour. This 3 speed air purifier is relatively quiet and can be mounted on the wall, laid on its side or sat upright, which makes it easy to fit into just about any space. It features a carbon pre-filter that improves odor control and works with the rest of the 3M Filtrete filtration system to eliminate 99.97% of all airborne particulates including dust, pollen, tobacco smoke, pet hair, lint and other particulates as small as 0.3 microns in size. The only thing we love more than its incredible filtration system is how long the filters last. The HEPA filter for the Quietflo lasts much longer than many HEPA air filters in its class, only needing to be replaced about once a year. However, the technical support for this particular unit is less than outstanding and there have been a few fan glitches, but they're few and far between. Despite this the QuietFlo HEPA air purifier really is a great purifier for the price.

Pros: Excellent performance, whisper quiet, good filtration range
Cons: Expensive

Review: The FAP03RS Flitrete Ultra HEPA air purifier by 3M is a whisper quiet unit that filters 99.9% of airborne particulates including pollen, mold spores, dust mite debris, pet dander, smoke, and virus carrying particulates. Its filtration range is 360 square feet so it's great for larger rooms and its modern design allows it to blend with any décor. The Filtrete boasts one of the best filtration systems in its class and a indicator light that lets you know when it's time to change your filter, what more could you ask for in an air filtration device? We love this air filtration device's ability to merge strength and noise reduction technology. The Filtrete is the most powerful purifier in its class boasting an efficiency rating up to 13 times more effective than most other air filtration devices in its price range. This air purifier comes in two sizes with filtration ranges of 160 and 360 square feet and is much quieter than most units in its class. However there is the little matter of price. This unit costs a bit more than others in its class and there have been a few fan speed glitches reported in some units. It can also become overloaded when used in homes with multiple pets, but with it's easy to change filters and great technical support, it's a modest trade off.

Pros: Powerful filtration system, lifetime warranty, wide filtration range
Cons: A larger unit, noisy

Review: The A350 90-Watt HEPA air purifier is a larger air purifier by Alen. This purifier is most effective at a range of about 400 square feet but it's capable of filtering the air for a range of 800 square feet. It uses a large carbon filter so you only need to replace the filters in this unit about once every 6 months and they are fairly easy to replace. The A350 has 4 fan speeds so it can adjust to a room's needs and an ionizer that makes for cleaner air no matter what size room you have. With its powerful purification system and balanced design it's hard to find a better purifier for the price. What we like most about this particular unit is that it includes both HEPA technology and carbon odor elimination technology that can be utilized depending on the consumer's taste. It's easy to maintain and has a high customer satisfaction rate to go along with its lifetime warranty. Unfortunately, this unit is a bit larger than most so it consumes quite a bit of electricity when you run it on high for extended periods of time and it's a little on the noisy side. However, it makes up for its size with a 12 hour timer that saves you energy and the noise decreases when used at the lower fan speeds.
