PinkTulip Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 With things ramping up, I’m looking into getting a few of these: one for DS18 moving into suite-style dorms with 7 roommates in about a month, and one for me - recently returned back to the office and now have to share a 10x14-ish space with a new hire. What brands and styles do you have and like? How effective are these against COVID? (We’re all fully vaxxed at my house, just getting a little nervous and want to be proactive if things continue on the current trajectory). Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaVT Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I have this guy by Medify: https://www.amazon.com/Medify-Medical-Filtration-Air-Purifier/dp/B086T3RJV6/ref=bmx_lh3mot9o_2/136-7603924-4327402?pd_rd_w=0KzF2&pf_rd_p=1f75fbb3-7d95-464f-8182-952155c0316b&pf_rd_r=ZADXF0GP48MTCGSNCV4J&pd_rd_r=2fc7f6e3-289c-4d53-a41c-0199ba6de91e&pd_rd_wg=ZhOAu&pd_rd_i=B086T3RJV6&psc=1 I'm not sure how effective it is against Covid specifically, but I kept one in my office all year at school and every time the custodian checked the air quality in my room, it was always the best in the school by a wide margin. So much so that our school secretary got one for her office after the air quality there was terrible. It improved a lot after she got it. Also, it got rid of the middle school stink - my office is near both the gym and the cafeteria and it helped a lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Years ago we started off buying the big Honeywells. Last year we bought some canister shaped Levoit. They are very small, but do an excellent job. I would actually recommend those for a dorm situation. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I've had this Levoit for about a month. I've noticed better air quality and am having fewer sinus issues. My concern is mostly with mildew. I use it in a room about 12 x 14. It's very quiet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the one we own also. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
