Expert-tested picks to combat allergens, viruses, and pollutants for a healthier start to the year.
As we ring in 2025, improving indoor air quality tops many health-focused resolutions. Poor air can exacerbate allergies, asthma, and even spread viruses—especially in homes where we spend most of our time. The right air purifier filters out dust, pet dander, smoke, and VOCs, helping you breathe easier and stay healthier.
Our Review Atlas team tested dozens of models based on key criteria: Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) for efficiency, True HEPA filtration (capturing 99.97% of 0.3-micron particles), room coverage, noise levels, energy use, smart features, and filter longevity. We prioritized real-world performance from lab tests and user data.
From budget-friendly compact units to premium smart systems covering large spaces, this list covers all price points and needs—whether you're allergy-prone, have pets, or want whole-home protection. Discover our top 6 picks to purify your air and your new year.
