I have four BlueAir units. I bought the first one in 2020, and they haven't stopped working a single day since. I live in Jakarta, and I have plenty of proof to verify their quality. Mine are ProL, ProM, Classic 402, and BluePure. I like to keep them oversized so I can keep them running at the lowest possible speed. I don't have much experience with other brands, but I think BlueAir units with quality certifications are a good buy. I have allergies and asthma.
I have a giant blue air and I love it. Before we didn't have one in a smaller space and I feel some days I was dying.
The cost of the filters is kind of pricy though.
We have Blue Air - a large one in the main living area, which catches kitchen/cooking particulate, and a mini one in each kid room. Costco has two packs of the minis for $99 right now!
I second Levoit, we have almost one in each room. And we also have a Blueair large room. Both are a smart device connected and man the amount of dust the pull is scary.
Multi level approach works well.
- Decent filter you change more regularly for your HVAC (agree with others that MERV shouldn't be too high)
- Clean floors, if you have carpet get a deep carpet cleaning annually
- Room air filters. I've had luck with Blue Air. Have one jig one for living room and some small ones for the bedrooms.
- Have you tried using regular saline rinses for your nose? I use the powder saline mixes with the plastic applicator from NeilMed, but there are others out there. While my allergies are pretty mild, I haven't needed to take any allergy medicine at all since using these.
