One of the objectives for our site is to provide you with the information necessary to make an educated decision to select the best air purifier for your situation. There are different air purification technologies, filters and price points and unless you put a lot of time into researching purifiers it can be daunting. We hope that you find our air purifier rating system easy to understand and valuable such that you can be confident with your decision.
We have mixed feelings toward the history of the Sharper Image Ionic Breeze air purifier. This purifier left somewhat of a black mark on the air purifier industry as a gadget and ultimately put Sharper Image out of business. The benefit in all of this is that it helped to generate awareness toward improved indoor air quality since the indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air and has positioned air purifiers that work as solutions for people with allergies or asthma as well as for people looking to improve their home environment through smoke and odor removal.
Based upon our internal testing as well as independent consumer feedback you will see a strong emphasis toward HEPA based air purification systems. While there are some drawbacks to a HEPA purifier, it consistently outperforms any other technology that is currently available and is the preferred filtration technology by every government agency that is concerned with indoor air quality. In coming up with our listing of the best air purifiers, we have focused most of the weighting toward air purifiers that work based upon results in test labs as well as testimonials from actual air purifier owners who have shared the good, the bad and the ugly.
So without further adieu here is our listing of best air purifiers. To see the detailed review for each air purifier click on the product name below.
