I’ve spent years testing air purifiers
Wildfire smoke, pet dandruff and cooking fumes can all pollute the air in your home. Winix, Shark and Dyson make the top air purifiers to fix that

TL;DR
- Climate change intensifies wildfire seasons, leading to poorer air quality due to ground-level ozone and smoke.
- Indoor air pollutants include wildfire smoke, pollen, pet dander, and cooking fumes.
- Ideal air purifiers feature a pre-filter, a HEPA or HEPA-like filter, and a carbon filter for odors.
- Air purifier effectiveness is also determined by their room coverage size and cost.
- The Winix 5510 Air Purifier is recommended for its HEPA filter, odor control, and smart features at a competitive price.
- The Shark NeverChange Air Purifier offers a long-lasting filter, odor masking, and a user-friendly display for smaller rooms.
- The Dyson Purifier Hot+Cool HP1 is a versatile 3-in-1 device combining fan, space heater, and air purification functions with high-quality performance.
- The Dyson Purifier Cool Gen1 TP10 is a more affordable Dyson option, offering purification and fan functions without heating.
