https://levoit.com/collections/air-purifiers/products/core300-air-purifier We bought two (one for the main living area and another for our bedroom) of these a few years back, and they're great. They dont take up much space and effectively filter out all the nastiness. We just bought the smaller one to take with us when we travel, and it really bailed us out when we went to Duluth for a few days recently.

I never had allergies prior to about two years ago. But now I wake up coughing every morning with dripping teary eyes and nose. You know what fixed it? An air purifier. No joke, I never thought I’d become one of those people  https://a.co/d/7gpWgYl

I love my levoit and will always be an advocate. Yes you have to change filters every 6 months, but that just means ITS WORKING!!! Quakers are notorious for floofs floating in the air because they are some of the fluffiest and softest birds. My baby is 23 yrs old with breathing issues and the air quality is completely different when I have the levoit running. Birds who may need stronger purifiers would be cockatoos and cocktails. They shed differently. I purchased the 600s and I lug that baby all around the house from living room to kitchen to bedroom depending on where the babies are. It stays in the living room with their day cages mostly. It detects the slightest increases and i set it to alert me when it rises. It was working hard when they repaved the street outside! It worked even harder when air quality from smoke and local fires couldn't be helped. Theres a digital timer you can ignore or reset whenever. Go with Hepa every time if you go off brand for filters. Levoit brand filters start at 59.99 for my 600s thats only 120/year which is equal to 10 bucks per month. Its worth it to me. I have 2 birds, a quaker and a conure. I recommend you get them 300s-p for yourself. Its about 100 but the filters go for about 30 bucks every 6 months. It could even last longer if you open it up and it looks fine still. https://a.co/d/6VV63By

I have a Q and I use the Levoit air cleaners. They work great, some even have apps ( neat addition but certainly not needed) super easy to clean and fairly quiet. One model is even a box, that can go against walls or furniture, if space is a concern. I also buy generic filters for them, compared to paying tao fines as much for the name brand. About ever 2-3 weeks, I even wipe off the filters, to extend there life a little more. It is insane and even kinda gross how much “stuff” those filters take out if the air in a week or two! I don’t deal with much dust in my house now either. I swear by good air cleaners! This is the one I spoke of above that can go against a wall, curtains or furniture. https://a.co/d/bATDubu They have many others too that are smaller and cheaper. This is the small cylinder one I have, it was my first. Works great, nothing fancy no apps. I keep this in the den. https://a.co/d/0AeZxvt Whatever you decide on, just. Reminder to not have it close on your birds cage. You don’t want any the bird to feel any breeze or draft at anytime, ever. And regular cleaning is a must! Good luck! Best wishes to you and your Q too!

Mine are Levoit and I am super pleased with this brand.

Thanks for the recommendation, I was looking for something small and child proof for when their doors are closed (so it was fine to be rated for small sq footage). I ordered these for each bedroom and they already arrived and are set up! Got a AQI meter thing too so we’ll see the difference they make.

These are the ones I ordered last night based on an earlier reply. They already arrived and are running in each bedroom!

I had two Levoit die on me very prematurely. The brand is dead to me.

Yes! They help me so much during allergy season. I like the Levoit Core 300 for my bedroom because it's quiet: [https://levoit.com/products/core300-air-purifier](https://levoit.com/products/core300-air-purifier)

I’ve got 4 of these Levoit filters in different rooms of my house and they’ve been great: https://a.co/d/7YwlHdW Multiple different speed settings including a night setting, and can lock the controls so people (my kids) don’t turn them off. I originally found them on a review site that was testing different branded filters ability to turn over air in a space and remove the particles, and the Levoit had performed the best out of that grouping.

HVAC tech told me that the HEPA air filters in rooms were a better investment than MERV13 filters for the furnace I had been buying and that I could probably go down to MERV8 in the furnace without noticing a difference in air quality because of the room filters.
