The panel also indicates when itвЂ™s time to change the filter, and it has multiple brightness levels so you can dim it at night or when you donвЂ™t need to see it.Д«est Compact Air Purifier A Small Model That Communicates Your Air Quality In Real Time The control panel on the top of the unit lets you set up to four different cleaning levels (which affect the fan speed and overall noise level) and has an auto-off timer option so it doesnвЂ™t run continuously.

ItвЂ™s one of the more configurable air purifiers on this list. Honeywell says that its fan can filter the air in the room five times in one hour. This model is designed for medium-size rooms (about 155 square feet) and features a true HEPA filter for guaranteed removal of 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns. This Honeywell HPA100 might not look like much-it has all the visual appeal of a space heater-but Honeywell, no doubt, is hoping youвЂ™ll care more about what it can do. PECO destroys pollutants 1,000 times smaller than those in HEPA tests.Or you can opt for one of the Air Mini models, which purifies up to 250 square feet. If youвЂ™re looking for the same sophisticated design for a bigger space, that might be the model worth investing in. ItвЂ™s worth mentioning that the brand has a newer model, the Air Pro, designed for extra large spaces up to 1,000 square feet. MolekuleвЂ™s proprietary technology, photo electrochemical oxidation (PECO), not only tackles VOCs, but also uses oxidation to destroy indoor air pollutants at molecular levels.вЂќ

вЂњWhat theyвЂ™re not able to do is capture VOCs-airborne chemicals that mostly derive from off-gassing of building materials or products in our homes or things like everyday cleaning products. вЂњAir purifiers with traditional filters (like HEPA) are able to capture 99.97% of mold spores, pollen, dust, bacteria and other airborne particles with a size of 0.3 microns,вЂќ explains the brandвЂ™s co-founder, president and chief technology officer Dilip Goswami. This pick from Molekule is one of the priciest on the list, but for serious allergy-sufferers, it may be a worthwhile investment. Filter replacement can be expensive over time.That said, if you want a little more square footage, the brandвЂ™s Core 300 model works in rooms up to 219 square feet, and retails for around $100. Though its capacity is on the smaller side and it doesnвЂ™t have as many features as other air purifiers on this list, itвЂ™s hard to beat the price. Aesthetically, it wouldnвЂ™t be out of place on your nightstand with its white or black case and sleek design.

While this air purifier was designed for use in the bedroom (its fan is ultra quiet and it features an optional soft blue night light with two brightness settings), itвЂ™s quite portable and can be moved from room to room if needed. And three fan settings let you control the speed and volume of the purifier. Instead it features a three-stage filtration system that includes a pre-filter, a HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter. ItвЂ™s an excellent, inexpensive option that eschews technology like UV and ionization more commonly found in this price range. Small enough to fit on your desk and designed to filter up to about 129 square feet, this compact Levoit model is equipped with a HEPA filter that removes 99.97% of dust, pollen, smoke, odor, mold spores and pet dander.
