Get it if…

Things to know before you buy
- No air-quality sensor, so it won't speed up on its own.
- Not powerful enough for big rooms.
RTINGS picks it as the best cheap purifier: compact and fairly quiet, with enough airflow for a bedroom or small office. It lacks automatic fan control and isn't strong enough for larger rooms.
