Before I became Ideal Home’s expert in all things air quality, I got caught up in the air purifier wave. They were the talk of the town, everyone was buying them, and I just didn’t want to be left out. In doing so, I made some serious buying mistakes - and there were so many things I wish I knew before buying an air purifier.
While I’m now a huge fan of the best air purifiers, I know from personal experience that doing little-to-no research and buying the wrong one (well, buying the wrong three, in my case) is a serious waste of time, money, and effort. But as it’s now my job to test air purifiers and understand everything there is to know about them, I’ve realised that I’m probably not the only one who has made these poor choices.
