Clearing the air: Do you really need a purifier?
Indoor air can be 10 times more polluted than what you breathe outdoors so getting an air purifier may seem like a natural solution. But some of the models in Consumer Reports recent tests do little to rid a space of dust and smoke. And one air purifier we tested did practically nothing.
Of course, you won’t discover any of that by browsing store shelves. Some of the newest air purifiers have a sleek look and are quiet enough to use in the bedroom—from the retro-radiator Electrolux EL500AZ (see photo) to the modern Humanscale Zon HZAP.
But other models work well only at speeds too loud for sleeping. Certifications on the box mean only so much and in an upcoming post we'll help you decipher the labels. Snatching up the brand you last bought and liked can also bring discontent: Models from Whirlpool and Holmes were among the best and worst we tested.
Among the nearly 40 models we tested is the LightAir IonFlow 50F, $400, which we also tested for our last report in September 2010. With no fan to aid airflow, the LightAir was about as effective at removing dust and smoke in our tests as having no purifier at all. We judged the LightAir a Don’t Buy: Performance Problem, and haven't changed that recommendation.
