Go for it if you...
Fast particle clearance matters most — wildfire smoke, pet allergens, or dust — and you want it in a quiet, steel machine
You're placing this in a bedroom and quiet operation is a priority above all else
You want CARB-certified assurance on ozone safety with a high-CADR machine
You understand the chemical filtration limitations and have separate strategies for VOC control
You want a quiet, ozone-free purifier for one small bedroom or nursery of roughly 200 to 250 square feet
You care most about clean materials and a True HEPA plus carbon system with no ionizer
You want low running costs, with one inexpensive filter swapped about twice a year
You want whisper-quiet overnight operation in a child's room
A budget price around $111 matters to your decision
The main thing to know
At $398/year in filter replacements, total five-year ownership cost exceeds $3,100 — significantly more expensive than it appears at the $1,199 sticker price.
The filtration itself is clean and ozone free, but the real clean-air delivery is small-room sized, so the advertised 1,095 sq ft coverage is far more than this purifier can actually handle. Size it for a single room of about 200 to 250 sq ft.
Skip this if you...
Chemical sensitivities or VOC off-gassing is your primary concern — 1 lb of carbon is insufficient for heavy chemical loads
The $398/year filter cost is a budget strain — over five years this is a $3,100+ product
You need to cover more than 600-700 sq ft — the 1,600 sq ft coverage claim is not achievable at meaningful air-change rates
You need to cover a large living room or open-plan space, where the modest clean-air delivery falls well short of the coverage claim
You are dealing with heavy smoke, wildfire haze, or strong chemical odors that demand a larger carbon bed
You want a formally certified H13 or virus-grade filter rather than standard True HEPA
You need full housing material disclosure before placing a device in your child's room
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
