Durable, effective for allergens/odors, but loud on high.

Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
Im doing good with Honeywell insight (largest size up to 500 sf). The filters arent cheap to replace but are HEPA & widely available. The only thing I don t like is you cant open it up to clean the vents.
Honeywell we use the big 500 sq foot one for main floor and the smaller 200 sq ft one for the bedroom leave them on low change filters every 4/6 months
They're not the quietest* of all available options nor the cheapest but every one of my Honeywell devices has worked very well with daily use for 5+ years. I bought them on sale, watch for filter sales online (I buy the Honeywell brand as I haven't found good testing data for knock offs) and I have no regrets. Models I use: Honeywell Insight in Medium-Large (x2) and Large-Extra Large (x1). * They do run quietly on lower settings but I generally use the higher two settings.
I’ve tried a few and the germ guardians are the best bang/buck. The big Honeywell ones if you have to do a BIG space. We have a Dyson and I don’t love it.
Mine is a Honeywell. Because I know I'll be able to continue to get filters (even if I do buy off brand ones, bc theirs are SO expensive). Standard filters is the way. The A+ prefilter is better than the standard softer A style, but both are good at catching cat hair (I vacuum it off regularly)
Honeywell makes standard styles/sizes (mine uses two R filters) and other companies use the same system so it's easy. You can also search by model number (ex hpa 200) These are what I bought last time: https://ebay.io/m/JRqZjg
Yes. I have Honeywell HEPA units in multiple houses. 24/7.
