Two room sizes are shown for each model. Brand-rated room is the largest room the brand says it can handle. Cleans quickly is the room size where it meets the stricter rule used by AHAM, the US appliance association (about 1.1 m³/h of CADR per sq ft), which is what you want during heavy smog.

Before you choose on price
- Measure the room. Length × width in feet. A 12 × 12 ft bedroom is 144 sq ft.
- Add the filter cost. A replacement filter is usually needed about once a year; some Philips filters last longer. See the filter guide.
- Check sleep-mode noise if it is for a bedroom.
- App control is optional. It is convenient, but it does not clean the air any better.

Is a cheap air purifier good enough?
Yes, if it has a true HEPA filter and is sized for the room. A lower-priced model simply covers a smaller room; it is a poor choice only when it is used in a room larger than it can handle.
What matters more, price or CADR?
CADR for your room size comes first. A purifier that is too small will not clean the room however good the brand. After that, compare noise, filter cost and smart features.
