Best value for max CADR? AirFanta 3PRO $150 USD - adjustable speed, travels well, newer version can be used with power bank. Slight whine noise at highest speed. Want nicer looking/no whine? North Box or Clean Air Kits Standard unit, purchase off Amazon? Lago, hands down. I've bought 8? for various family members. I've bought air filters for ages due to allergies, and the only thing it doesn't do better than the Austin Air I have is clean smoke/odors. But I also bought 6 Lagos for the price of the last Austin Air replacement filter I got.
r/Masks4All • When it comes to the best air purifier for home, which options do you think of currently? ->AirFanta 3PRO has the best CADR for its size and cost. On higher speeds it can have a slightly higher pitch that may be annoying.
r/Masks4All • The TRULY best air purifier for home to buy currently - The air quality is FULL OF DUST! ->Seconding the recommendation for the Air Fanta 3 Pro! I love mine. Quiet, efficient, cheaper price, and best of all, it folds up so it's easy to transport when you're going to other places! Best bang for your buck. Read the House Fresh review.
r/Masks4All • Which Home Air Purifiers are your BEST PICKS that you'll recommend for those who live in severe air pollution areas? ->If aesthetics and noise levels are important to you, Coway ProX for the main living space (assuming it's large-ish) and any Coway "medium spaces" unit (use their website to filter) for the Bedroom. Total ~$1k. If aesthetics and noise levels are not important, two AirFanta 3Pro, run on Medium-High, about $400. If aesthetics are not important but noise is, four AirFanta 3Pro, run on Low or Medium-Low, about $800. If your budget is a little flexible and you want the highest CADR with the smallest footprint and lowest noise, a SMART AIR BLAST - MKII for the main living space (about $1,100) and any Coway "medium spaces" unit. Total, about $1,500.

Just get an air purifier with only the basics, no ionisation as that can contribute to ozone and make air quality worse. I actually made a mini CR boxes for myself and took it back with me to TW visiting family. It's amazing how dirty the filter gets only after 2 weeks in Taiwan. After 1 month it's as dirty as 6 months where I normally live. If you can source filters and pc fans, a dc adapter, and have DIY skills, you can definitely make your own most bang for buck in terms of CADR and power. I bought an AirFanta 3 pro for the house, but I don't know where to buy it from in Taiwan. That's only because the local options available here suck. There are heaps of diff brands and options in TW. Housefresh (on YouTube) has great reviews you could look at. Good luck! I didn't realise how much a difference clean air is until I started using purifiers.
r/taiwan • air purifier ->Recently got the Airfanta 3 Pro. Easily disassembled for travel, has a high filtration rate and runs pretty quiet. Was within your budget too. I'd check it out. The engineer that made it posts on X and Reddit all the time so if you're ever researching it you'll see why he designed it the way he did.
r/AirPurifiers • Best Value Air Purifier? (Coway, Winix, Blueair, Shark, Sans, etc) ->I just purchased the air Fanta 3. If you want some really helpful reviews check out [house fresh](https://www.housefresh.com). Here is the review for [Air Fanta Pro 3](https://housefresh.com/airfanta-3pro-review/) that I recommended and purchased.
r/Masks4All • Which Home Air Purifiers are your BEST PICKS that you'll recommend for those who live in severe air pollution areas? ->So for portability, the AirFanta 3Pro would be your best bet. Running it on high sounds like you're torturing a computer, but its your best overall option on portability and efficiency. For the house, if you're only looking to filter out covid, its kind of hard because it takes X number of air changes (CADR) to effectively filter out the air, and that takes time relative to how fast and efficient your purifier is. You can't just plop a unit down and run it for 5 minutes then poof, the covid is gone. Also, I'd suggest running them in the home constantly, just to filter out allergens like dust and mold and whatnot. That way they're constantly on the hunt to filter the covid out and you can just move one over to wherever the "problem" is. If you have people at the house mask, especially strangers, it would eliminate a lot of these potential issues.
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • Please help me choose an air purifier/recommend some ->Yeah, as others are pointing out the pandemic is far from over. Air purifiers are a great idea. We have them in every room of the house. Get them to cover double the sq ft than the room you'll use it in so that you can get the same coverage on lower settings. The Levoit Core series is good, has a small footprint and is pretty affordable. I've sent these to family. Shout out for the [Air Fanta 3Pro](https://air-fanta.com/collections/all) because it folds down and is portable for travel. [Clean Air Kits](https://www.cleanairkits.com/collections/shop-all) are also awesome. I just got the [Exhalaron](https://www.cleanairkits.com/products/exhalaron) to use for doctors appointments etc.
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • What are the best air purifier brands for home use in terms of air filter quality and other specs in your opinion? ->I have a PureZone mini that I take to doctor and dentist appointments. I just got an Air Fanta 3 Pro for my room for the rare occasion I have to travel. Edit: Why the downvotes? Are these not good? Is it because I got the AFP3 to occasionally travel? I'm a 4.5 year long hauler. I don't get to do much but when I do I try to be as safe as possible. Whatever the case, I'd appreciate knowing more instead.
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • Which portable air purifier to buy? ->I have an air Fanta 3 pro. It sits on a side table right beside my bunnies cage. It's very quiet and works extremely well. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by how little bunnies smell. There is no smell from our bun's enclosure. We have the air purifier to catch fluff and dander as my husband is very allergic. If you get a very fluffy bunny, I recommend the air purifier to catch the wispy floating fluff balls.
r/Rabbits • Best air purifier? ->If you're trying to prevent COVID, are you masking outside your home? My favorite lightweight air purifier is the AirFanta 3Pro. There's also the Smart Air Sqair air purifier
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Yeah, get the AirFanta 3Pro with the carbon filter. It has a higher CADR and more mainstream brands would charge 2-3x for that CADR. Though it would suck to have to mask at home, it might be worth getting some KN95s to wear at home. A mask is just an air filter for your face.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →About how large is your office? My first thought was AirFanta 3Pro with the carbon filter. It's over your $200 but not by a wild amount. The Winix 5500-2 is another option. I'm not sure how strong the fumes are but either of the two devices will help. Neither have a ton of carbon if the fumes are super strong but it will help. The AirFanta will give you more air filtering per hour if your office is small, depending on the speed you set it on.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →AirFanta 3Pro for sure. Highest CADR per dollar of all the PC fan air purifiers, and it's not even close. The non PC fan purifiers use way more electricity, too.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Honestly you're probably better off with a AirFanta 3Pro. Mine get a ton of cat hair on them. Granted one is in my hallway and my cats pass through there a decent amount. The one in my bedroom also sees a decent amount. I vacuum them both about every two weeks. I've gone longer but like to clean it the same as the pre-filter on another device. It has a high clean air delivery rate and it's a very good buy for the price.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Depends on the size of the room and how fast you're expecting to clear the smell. It works well for my living room for 420 but I ended up getting an AirFanta 3Pro with carbon filters to help out because of the size and layout of my space. I could clear my living room and hallway faster with the AirFanta alone.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →AirFanta 3Pro. It's not the most aesthetic machine but it has great specs. Rated for a room around 500 square feet. They have a version with a carbon filter. I've been testing it and it cleans the smell faster than my Winix. To be expected with a higher CADR. The Winix will help a lot if you're in a smaller room, like 275 sq ft max

r/taiwan • View on Reddit →The AirFanta 3 Pro. Get the one with carbon filters. It's a powerful device and should be able to clean the air fairly quickly since your room is small.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Sorry for the stalking I was trying to find your recovery post and saw this post anyways I have the levoit core 300s and the airfanta pro 3 and the airfanta pro 3 is wider but less tall but I still prefer it over the levoit. The levoit needs to be on mode 3 to be somewhat effective and it's really noisy at that point. The airfanta pro I have at 3 (out of 6) and is way less noisy and according to the stats more effective but replacement filters are more costly. Housefresh.com has a lot of good reviews on different type of airfilters
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Levoit Core 600s if odors aren't a huge consideration. AirFanta 3Pro isn't the most aesthetic device but it covers a large area (650 sq ft) for a very reasonable price. Coway Airmega 400 is a good device. I would wait for a sale. Smart Air Blast Mini or MKII if you have a large budget and don't need to move the devices often.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →You can put something under the door but it won't block everything. Air can come in through the sides and top too. The risk is low, but wildfire smoke has been a good proxy for how particles can travel through those tiny cracks. Not sure if shared air via ventilation system would be a concern? Love my air Fanta 3 pro after many weeks of researching but it's not the cheapest - it does have a really good CADR to price ratio though and it's quiet too (noisy on max but good noise to CADR ratio) The thing to consider with air purifiers is the replacement filters. Some will say you change the filter once a year but can gunk up in a month. Some have hard to find replacement filters. Some have cheap initial cost but expensive filters. For a cheap air purifier with easy to find filters, Ikea might be a good option. Here's a spreadsheet with CADR, price, noise levels, ratios etc. Select your country. Minimum you want is 6 air changes/hour, I'd aim for 12 though. You can calculate with online calculators, just make sure units match up (CADR units, room dimension units in ft vs. meters, etc.) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/17j6FZwvqHRFkGoH5996u5JdR7tk4_7fNuTxAK7kc4Fk/htmlview# Eta: I popped it into a calculator, air Fanta at 9v gives you a CADR of 328 cubic ft/min so 13 air changes/h. 48 dB A cheap Ikea one only has a CADR of 44 cubic ft/min which wouldn't be adequate. Air Fanta is one of the cheaper options on this list. But if you're in the US I'd also be concerned about tarriffs?
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • View on Reddit →that is true. I don't know how well they compare against the 5500-2, and one of selling points of the 5500-2 is that the carbon filter is separate (and apparently washable?) where as on the airfanta its bound to the filtration medium. But also it would raise the cost well over 150, where as just the airfanta 3pro itself is under 160 with the standard filter set.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →For under $200? AirFanta 3Pro. I think you'd be better off getting two purifiers that can clean about 300-400 square feet on low but given your budget, one purifier that can clean the air in 450sq feet and under $200 is the AirFanta 3Pro
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →I'd do AirFanta 3Pro and the Winix 5510. The Winix has a carbon filter which will help with occasional pet smells. It also has app support. The AirFanta 3Pro has a carbon version as well but for you could save a bit and get the Winix. The AirFanta will do the bulk of the work with the Winix as a nice supplemental device.

r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →The size of the fan and the filters matter. This small device isn't going to effectively filter the air in a 1,000+ sq ft space as it's being advertised. As someone still taking COVID precautions, I'm not depending on this device as a mitigation layer. Even if I had bad allergies, it's not going to effectively clean the air compared to a Winix 5510 or AirFanta 3Pro
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →At fan speed 2 the 150's performance falls to CADR = 78 CFM, so HouseFresh doesn't recommend it for room sizes larger than 117 square feet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJWJX-FMxeo I'm not sure why anyone would recommend the IKEA Vindstryka because it's just an air quality monitor, not an air purifier. I wouldn't recommend the IKEA Starkvind either, because its noise and performance is similar to what you already have. Returning the Coway and getting an Airfanta 3pro might be a good option. I'm not sure about Auto mode on your Coway, but I would expect that ramping up when it detects particles and then ramping down when the air is cleaner so it's quiet most of the time is exactly what you would want? Take care.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →You gotta up the budget if you want a pre assembled device. The best budget pick is the AirFanta 3Pro with carbon filters. I know it's not the most attractive device but it performs incredibly well for the price. If you ran it at its highest fan speed it can provide close to 5 air changes in 680 square feet https://housefresh.com/airfanta-3pro-review/
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →AirFanta 3Pro with carbon filters? I'm not sure how big the litter box area is since this is a device that takes up a bit more floor space than usual. The AirFanta does have a high clean air delivery rate, especially for the price. You could run it at the lower fan speeds and still achieve good air cleaning, depending on how big a space you need it for. Have you tried different litters? I've found Arm and Hammer to be good for odors. Do they sell that brand in Canada?
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Obligatory recommendation for the AirFanta 3Pro. One of the best CADR-per-dollar and CADR-per-decibel options out there, and it doesn't have an ionizer which is bad for birds.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →I have no idea why it would be called a scam. Adam Wong, the engineer regularly posts on X and there have been many positive reviews. I have both the AirFanta 3pro which has excellent CADR. At full blast it might be a bit noisier but I lent mine to a friend visiting and staying at a hotel and they liked the white noise and subsequently bought one. I have both the regular and the carbon filters (they can't be bought like a furnace type Corsi-Rosenthal). The Airfanta 4 lite is the personal laminal air purifier but it purifies just at your face and is not considered a room cleaner so you won't find a CADR for it. Some airlines allow them and some don't. Personally if I was traveling I'd bring an AirFanta 3pro as it's collapsible and has a better CADR than the Levoit.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Yes, a new version that's more attractive is coming out soon but if you don't mind the looks the AirFanta Pro is amazing (Amazon or their own website). 4 large filters and the testing is amazing for air quality. And at $169 is worth it. I followed along with the design and R&D.
r/parrots • View on Reddit →I'm a big fan of AirFanta 3Pro. It's easy to put together, is very effective, lightweight, and you can collapse it down and pack it away if you save the box.
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • View on Reddit →Seconding the recommendation for the Air Fanta 3 Pro! I love mine. Quiet, efficient, cheaper price, and best of all, it folds up so it's easy to transport when you're going to other places! Best bang for your buck. Read the House Fresh review.
r/Masks4All • View on Reddit →The AirFanta 3Pro uses E11 filters (95% interception efficiency at the MPPS), whereas HEPA is 99.95% or 99.97% interception efficiency at the MPPS, depending on the standard used (US or international). Previously E11 was called H11 and *was* considered a "HEPA filter," but that has since been changed. The inventor chose this filter because it maximizes the overall CADR, so switching to a HEPA filter would actually make the filtration worse. https://x.com/Engineer_Wong/status/1899144721710408038 --- EDIT: Yikes, big pile of misinformation linked by /u/Justifiers below. And a nice downvote too for my troubles, probably thinking (wrongly) that I downvoted them. To save people watching a rambling conspiracy video (skip to 6:20 on the second video if you want), the YouTuber's objection to CADR is the data only goes down to 0.5 microns and not smaller (untrue, PM0.5 by definition measures *all particles smaller than* 0.5 microns, and also misinformed because at that size electret filters get *better* interception efficiency as the particles get smaller) and one RTINGS.com video which appears to show CR boxes performing worse than HEPA filters with lower CADR (contradictory, because elsewhere in the videos he extensively blasts YouTuber tests as unreliable and amateurish). Save your time and brain cells. Tl;dr yes **CADR is still what really matters** and not HEPA.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →It's *slightly over your budget but the AirFanta 3Pro with carbon filter. High CADR (clean air delivery rate) for a great price. It's very lightweight which will help with moving it to different rooms.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →If aesthetics and noise levels are important to you, Coway ProX for the main living space (assuming it's large-ish) and any Coway "medium spaces" unit (use their website to filter) for the Bedroom. Total ~$1k. If aesthetics and noise levels are not important, two AirFanta 3Pro, run on Medium-High, about $400. If aesthetics are not important but noise is, four AirFanta 3Pro, run on Low or Medium-Low, about $800. If your budget is a little flexible and you want the highest CADR with the smallest footprint and lowest noise, a SMART AIR BLAST - MKII for the main living space (about $1,100) and any Coway "medium spaces" unit. Total, about $1,500.
r/Masks4All • View on Reddit →>It's a giant CR box Having used both, the 3Pro is definitely not "giant." It's a 1 foot cube. >with all the CR box problems IMO the biggest problem with CR boxes is the noise, and the 3Pro is a lot better than a CR box on that front. >High replacement filter costs The first-party replacements are similar to the Winix, no? But yes, with a current lack of 3rd-party filters it is a bit more expensive than alternatives, for people who are willing to use non-OEM filters. >no HEPA (the filters are EPA11 at best) This from coming the person who (very correctly IMO) is always pointing out that CADR is a better metric than interception efficiency. Adam Wong did the math and determined that (for the PC fans used) an E11 filter delivers the highest possible CADR. https://twitter.com/Engineer_Wong/status/1769965319945347394 >No carbon filter, so no smell reduction. Add-on carbon filters get pricey Personally I like separating particle and VOC filtering, since you tend to be able to do better then trying to find one unit that does everything. Also odd to say it has no carbon and then flip and talk about the carbon filter. But I do agree, it would be nice if you could order it with the carbon filter as standard. Pinging Adam Wong (/u/Sad_Gear4867), are you listening?? Anyway, I really do appreciate the excellent work UncleGurm does (in this thread and elsewhere) to educate people about air filters, but I confess I don't understand this grudge against Airfanta.
r/AirQuality • View on Reddit →The air Fanta can break down easily and you shouldn't have an issue taking onto a plane with carry on, I'm not sure if you'd be able to bring a commercial plastic levoit the same way but checked bag would be fine then. Some people here months ago were saying the air Fanta is a scam and is only shilled for here but it felt like actual reviews from real people when I was discovering it and from my personal experience using it I've found it nice and portable especially since it can run on a USB c power bank and adapter for lower voltage.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →the highest dollar per CADR I think is the Airfanta 3pro, but its a bit more finicky than a plug and play, and I don't know if it does smell very well. Between the two you have there, I'd go with the Winix.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Cat allergy person here as well as fragrances (which I don't have to worry about at home). IQ Air in bedroom (expensive and expensive filters and is good). In experience one would be AirFanta Pro3. You may want to consider getting the carbon filters for it and read up. Beside my bed have the Medify 15 so that'll helped a lot...a room one and a small bedside one for the bedroom.
r/AirQuality • View on Reddit →Multiple units in one home isn't overkill. How big is your room, the one you spend the most time in? If you're not super concerned about aesthetics and smart features, the AirFanta 3Pro has a high clean air delivery rate for the price. You could buy a number of those and put them throughout the house.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Thank you for the clarification. I agree with what you said. And we are shipping some 3Pro with carbon filters in it.
r/AirQuality • View on Reddit →I have the Winix 5500-2 and 2 AirFanta 3Pros. I have a Levoit Core 200s I run just for the heck of it. I wouldn't recommend the Starkvind. It has a pretty low CADR for the price. It's hard to recommend just one device without knowing the room dimensions and motivations (odor, allergies, cigarettes, weed, COVID, etc) but I tend to recommend the Winix 5500-2/5510, some Levoits, AirFanta, Clean Air Kits, and Smart Air. I rely a lot on House Fresh and the COVID informed community on Twitter. There's also Airpurifierfirst.com
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →We are working on a better aesthetics model, and with PM sensor, screen and APP.
r/AirQuality • View on Reddit →AirFanta 3Pro is a good unit with a high CADR, tho not the quietest. If you can do a Nukit Tempest, that would be a very quiet unit with a great CADR.
r/ZeroCovidCommunity • View on Reddit →Not a great buy. Incredibly overhyped. The CADR for the speed most people are likely to run it on is comparatively low. You're better off getting a Winix 5500-2/5510 or an AirFanta 3Pro if you don't care about aesthetics. AirFanta can clean a larger space/ has a higher CADR and is a better bang for your buck.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →How big is the space? The best bang for your buck is the AirFanta 3 Pro. It's not the most aesthetic machine but it purifies around 500 square feet with about 4-5 air changes an hour. If you think your cat would jump or scratch at it, it may be worth getting the Winix 5500-2. It purifies a smaller area- 300 square feet or so.
r/AirPurifiers • View on Reddit →Unfortunately the AirFanta 3Pro is ugly but it's great for pet hair. The creator has pictures of it caked in dust from his child's classroom blackboard. The attached picture is mine with 2 weeks worth of cat hair https://preview.redd.it/pqtu9lbdaf6g1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e870086cde7b4d3829c08cf961ab39ef13763a6a
