Dealing with pollen, pet dander or wildfire smoke? If you’ve got allergies and outdoor pollutants to battle this season, having an air purifier in your home is always a good idea. And since a few top-rated favorites, including the Dyson Purifier Cool™ TP07 ($650; $570) and Molekule Air Mini+ ($350; $275), are currently on sale, now is the best time to grab one.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), these handy appliances are designed to reduce indoor air pollution through a filtration system, using either fibrous physical filters or electronic ones to remove irritating—or downright harmful—particles from the air in your home. Which, FYI, can be even more polluted than the air outside, per research from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. As for whether or not air purifiers *actually* work? We’ve done the research and can give them a PureWow thumbs up.
