I’ve become a bit of an air purifier nut over the years. Originally, I used them because I believed that they helped keep the dust down and my dirty home cleaner. Now I’ve come to appreciate cleaner air quality while I suck it in all night. When you open it up and see how dirty the filters are, you HAVE to be glad that you have one. With indoor air much more polluted in general than outdoor air, having a quiet, energy efficient air purifier in your home should be, in my opinion, an integral part of your home design plan.
Here are my top picks for the year, updated from 2010. I totally believe in the super affordable fan and filter based machines, but for BETTER filtering (particularly for odor and allergy sufferers) and QUIETER filtering I would recommend spending more. My top picks are the two Rabbit Air machines, which I have at home. They are compact, powerful and silent. Mine runs continually on low and I’ve had it for three years without any problems.
