I have 4 Honeywell insight air purifiers in a 1100 sqft house that still remains dusty at all times. They claim 360sqft cleaning but I hardly noticed any difference. I have to vacuum the filters every couple weeks. At this point I'm thinking of just running a full home air filtration system that literally forces air in and out of rooms through a giant filter. Funny though, doesn't cost all the much more than the 4 Honeywells I bought if I do it myself. Even painting every room with fresh paint and sealing all holes I have this dust issue. Every week everything dusty again. Side note: The Honeywell brand sucks. The replacement filters are literally sheets you have to cut yourself and are so much thinner than the initial filters that come with the main unit. The offbrand filters I buy off amazon are better quality (thicker) and precut. So, while they do collect a ton of dust, the maintenance and replacement is a pain.
r/BuyItForLife • The REAL best air purifier - I HATE DUST! ->They aren't as advanced as others but I like the Honeywell air purifiers, and the Insight series can take a secondary filter for specific things like dog hair or VOCs or even tobacco smoke. They are cheaper to buy than other smaller brands but my first one has lasted I think 7 years maybe or so. Same with my HomeLabs dehumidifier. Never expected that to be the case for $100ish each. If I shine a flashlight I see practically zero dust in the air and can easily see what the charcoal filter grabs in front of the HEPA. Best buy had the https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6412406.p?skuId=6412406&sb_share_source=PDP On sale for $99 recently. The 500sq foot room model is only $169 when it details for close to $379. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6412444.p?skuId=6412444&sb_share_source=PDP Not sure for your car though.
r/AirPurifiers • Best air purifier for allergies ->Honeywell Hepa Air Purifier is amazing all the time especially post fire. It's saved me.
r/AirPurifiers • Air Doctor, Winix, Coway, Levoit, Wellis Air ->Honeywell HEPA air purifier, over a 100 bucks but had been running beautifully for theblast 6 years. Filters are expensive though, but as a lady with asthma better be safe
r/askvan • People using air purifiers in single rooms/ condos/ small apartments ->Honeywell HEPA is what I’ve used for decades. Reliable and easy to find their filters.
r/Home • Your top choices when it comes to the best Home Air Purifiers? ->Just stay away from the Honeywell HPA models. They all develop a burning smell. I've swapped my 2 out a total of 6 times.
r/MCAS • Best air purifier ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
