Get it if…
- It's for a bedroom and you're a light sleeper.
- Allergies flare up at night.
- You'd rather not buy a filter every year.
Skip it if…
- You want the most clean air for your money.
- You want it on a bedside table — it's floor-sized.
Things to know before you buy
- Bigger than 'Compact' suggests; better on the floor than a bedside table.
- Few buttons on the machine itself, so you'll mostly use the app.
- The carbon filter for smells still needs changing about once a year.
TechRadar names it the best purifier for bedrooms: its auto mode reacted faster than anything else it tested and it runs almost silently overnight. You're paying a lot for that quiet, and the cheaper Levoits clean just as much air.
