Who should buy which
Large open living spaces and allergy or wildfire-smoke households that want ultrafine-particle capture without an endless HEPA replacement-filter bill.
You want a quiet, compact bedroom unit or a budget pick: at 43 lb, 30 inches tall, and around $959 it is a large premium floor appliance, and the plates need periodic hand-washing.
Renters and households who want quiet, affordable true-HEPA filtration for a bedroom or medium room, and value simplicity and price over chasing the highest measured clean-air delivery rate.
You want independently-verified top-tier clean-air delivery or whole-home coverage. Then a Coway Airmega, Blueair, or IQAir is the better, pricier buy. And size up: do not trust the 1,000 sq ft figure for a truly large open space.
