Second this. I bought two a couple years ago, I think based of forum info. My wife said she noticed a difference within a few days of getting them.

This. Alen Air Filters out of California. I have two as well, and use them to stay alive (autoimmune lung damage). They are not cheap, but the simplicity, quality, and company service are off the charts. The medical equipment benefit of your medical insurance should pay for it Give them a phone call and you'll see what I mean.

Purchase from them directly instead of Amazon etc. and you'll have a better lifetime warranty, refill, and support experience. The price is almost the same.

Since no one has mentioned iQ Air, I'll throw them in the hat for consideration. We've used ours every night for the last 4 years while sleeping.

They are super powerful, but can also be very quiet for low particulate level clean up,

I would also recommend an air quality monitor to make sure you have an understanding of how well your purifier's working.

Might want to consider adding a navage to the routine. It has certainly helped our allergies tremendously.

If you have a whole house ac/heating system then consult a good AC/Heating company on adding one to the system, along with a really good 4 to 6 inch filter rack and filter, you'll get way more filtration area.

This has really helped reduce the dust and dander in the home over the old 1 inch filters.

We also installed a UV light in the air handler, it is designed to clear up the air, keeps the inside of the handler clean and they are not expensive units. Link Blueair UV

We did this vs individual units all around the house that have to be maintained, if you can do a whole house solution it may be beneficial, I had a local AC company do all the work, and all in parts and labor was under $700

Hit the first 3-month mark for the Winix air purifiers I placed around the house three months ago, so I replaced their activated charcoal filters.

Between what I see in the cleanable pre-filters when I vacuum them each month, what I saw the charcoal filters catch, additionally, and what I'm seeing in the appearance of the HEPA filters: These things are taking a ton of stuff out of the air at casa ensigmatic.

I have had good luck with the Conway products. Found it interesting that my dentist and the specialist office also use the Conway units in every room.
