"Last year there were wildfires nearby and the airmega kicked itself into high gear (I keep it on auto), so I do really trust that it’s actually doing something."
"The sensors are amazing. ... Yes whenever I cook or smoke they instantly kick on and work really well."
"great to put it on eco mode , as it detects poor air quality it automatically switches modes to higher setting and shows it as purple or red and once air is back to being good it goes back to eco mode and shows blue."

"without sounding like a jet ... auto mode stays under 25 dB"
"I have 2 Coway airmegas that are super quiet that I’ve had for nearly 2 years. ... its noise was very inconsistent and it was poorly constructed compared to the Coway Airmega"

"My air purifier for months was red and I figured the light was broken because I wasn’t experiencing any symptoms (no sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes) and I’m allergic to everything. ... Then we discovered mold on a shelf. Threw out the shelf, air purifier turned blue and no more issues. So it was definitely doing its job!"
"A Coway AirMega in the classroom was how I survived a couple bad wildfire years. It made an enormous difference."
"this thing has been amazing!!! ... I have two kids with seasonal allergies and this thing has been amazing!!!"

"It definitely cleans cooking odors/smoke no matter what room of my house it’s in, but I like to clear the kitchen air quickly for my own sake."
"I got a Coway AirMega because my apartment used to smell like my stinky chihuahua no matter what I did, and the smell is gone. ... Like when I come back to my apartment and open the door, instead of being like "wow, that is what I've been noseblind to?!" it smells the same as the hallway."

averitablerogue 1.0I have the Coway AP-1512HHS (the app-enabled Airmega, there’s also a dumb version that can’t connect) that I use via a HACS integration.
Such_Entertainer_854 1.0the new coway 1512hhs wifi no ozone but noise wise i recommend alenair 35i level 2 or 3 is quiet and gets 125 cfm and is prolly quietest for the cadr - check housefresh review
26heavysounds 0.2hate to rec NYT but Wirecutter did testing on smoke removal by air purifiers and the Coway Airmega AP-1512 won by a landslide in multiple years of testing. iirc they were testing in a 5000 sq ft office space. I've had mine for 3.5 years and I love it.
556_DR 0.2COWAY Airmega 1512hh model. You’ll thank me later. The filter is better than a Levoit 200. I upgraded from Levoit.
Alert_Hyena_828 0.2We have 2 of the Coway Airmega AP1512 and one Levoit Core, definitely recommend the Coway. Got them in 2020 with a baby on the way and Covid and western wildfires fullbore, they are still going strong. Family of four and one dog.
AtticusScout 0.2I’m loving what I’m seeing about the coway 1512, already bought one for my bedroom. Thanks for the recommendation! For two smaller rooms would you still go for that over the coway 100? Wasn’t sure if the 100 was good enough since the rooms are smaller and I failed to mention I have 2 boys in the smaller room and my daughter has used up all available space in her room so the smaller the filter the better lol. But if the carbon filter is especially better she can move some of her dolls around to make the space for the 1512. For the winix c909 is there a reason you suggest that over coway? I saw one comparison with the 5500 that said it has a better carbon filter and does better with VOCs but the c909 I’ve read doesn’t have as good as a carbon filter and I’m having a hard time figuring out how it compares to coway
boogiahsss 0.2I've had a coway AP-1512HH running for years now. Works really well except that the fan speed modes are super quiet, quiet and ultra loud. I also do not like the blue led but just cover it. Big plus is that I can buy filters on Amazon for cheap. It was listed as best recommended at some as far as I remember.
Brilliant-End4664 0.2Coway Airmega 350, Winix 5500-2 and Coway Airmega 1512.
Winix 5500-2 or Coway Airmega 1512
Winix 5510 and Coway Airmega 1512 is going to be the best bang for your buck.
CalmSeaweed1360 0.2I’ve owned a couple and the one that actually moved the needle for me was the Coway AP-1512HH.
couldn't agree more , it's the best .
CashEquity 0.2I tried a few of those models at home, and the Coway AP-1512HH has been the one I’ve stuck with.
