This $89 Budget Air Purifier Performs Like a Premium Model, Clearing Smells and Pet Dander Fast

A small but bright kitchen with two windows, and peach wallpaper. There is a a wooden countertop on the kitchen peninsula, and a stainless steel fridge freezer in view. The ktichen has brass hardware and bar stools .

I live in a house with an open-plan kitchen-diner, and internal doors that have gaps, making cooking smells a constant pain in our daily life. They spread from the kitchen to the living room and waft upstairs.

As someone with the nose of a hound, cooking smells are my biggest pet peeve at home. We often air-dry clothes indoors to protect delicate items from shrinking in the dryer, and to save on energy bills over winter. But those two winter issues together, at a time when our home is lacking the usual natural ventilation we enjoy when the weather is warmer outside means I needed a better fix.
