Air purifiers on sale ahead of Black Friday: Save up to $106

TL;DR: A slew of air purifiers from Coway, Winix, GermGuardian, and more are on sale this week — save up to $106.

On top of air quality in the U.S. headed toward a massive downward spiral (after being on the uptick for years), California is being torched by yet another round of wildfires this year. Though the Golden State experiences this every year, the past two have been the worst in state history.

Regardless of where you live, the air you’re breathing in on a daily basis is probably worse than you’d expect. (Have you noticed your allergies getting worse in the past year? You’re not crazy.) Home air purifiers provide an incredibly valuable service in the form of ridding the air of pollutants, allergens, and smoke smells without opening a window. They’re not a fix-all for your health, but they could help to combat respiratory and cardiovascular problems.

A few of our favorite air purifiers are on sale this week, which is lucky — safer air can’t wait until Black Friday.

Quite possibly the best air purifier you can buy right now, the Coway Mighty is what you’d want in a kid’s bedroom or a home with severe allergy sufferers. It cleans your air quicker than most, using a four-stage HEPA filtration system and a bipolar ionizer to reduce airborne odors and pollutants. The air quality monitor scans rooms up to 361 square feet, turns on when it’s needed, and turns back off when it hasn’t sensed pollutants in 30 minutes. 

For large spaces where you won’t be changing the settings regularly (like a basement or an attic), the Winix 5500 can offer some hands-off peace of mind. Smart sensors continuously scan the environment and choose the appropriate setting for the current air quality so you don’t have to mess with it. While that’s happening, the PlasmaWave technology essentially works as a permanent filter to break down odor, allergens, chemical vapors and other pollutants.

Disguised as a slender tower fan, this GermGuardian purifier can be squeezed into tight corners or beside furniture where bigger purifiers won’t fit. The machine still provides coverage up to 167 square feet and uses a UV-C light sanitizer with Titanium Dioxide (on top of the HEPA filter) to pull in airborne germs and mold spores, kill the harmful stuff, and spit cleaner air back out. The GermGuardian is on sale for $84.99, but make sure to check the extra 20% clip coupon for an even bigger discount.

If your allergies are completely squashing your productivity, this tabletop air purifier from Febreze could come in handy. The dual-action HEPA filter keeps small rooms pollutant-free and odor-free (and adds a fresh scent because obviously, it’s Febreze) without taking up room on the floor. This would also be a great addition to areas with lingering stenches, like near the litter box or the shoe rack.

Meet the heavy duty hitter of the bunch: This Honeywell purifier covers rooms up to 465 square feet, making it a no-brainer for open floor plans or office spaces. Three air-cleaning levels plus a Turbo option will circulate air through the room five times per hour, using a HEPA filter and pre-carbon filter to grab allergens, viruses (be gone, flu that goes around the office every year) VOCs, and more.

Perhaps you feel the wrath of pollutants the most when you’re in the car. It makes sense — commuting into a city, working near a power plant, or driving near the fires (if you’re in California) could easily lead to less-than-desirable air being trapped in your car. This mini air purifier from Autowit fits right in a cup holder and doubles as an ionizer to freshen air after it’s been cleaned.
