It’s just as good as an air purifier too, though its CADR rating is slightly below that of the purifier-only Pro P2. In tests, it took PM2.5 levels from a maximum 411 micrograms per square metre to 25 in 135 seconds, bringing it down to double figures in just over a minute. Again like the Pro P2, it’s quiet, with the noise barely noticeable at the lowest speed in purifier mode. Left on Smart mode, with the front-facing display turned off, all but the lightest sleepers should be able to sleep through. It’s really designed for small spaces of around 10m², but we found its performance better than the 80m³/h CADR might imply. Spraying antiperspirant into a small room with the purifier at maximum speed, the Clean Air Compact brought PM2.5 particulates down to safe levels within three minutes and six seconds. At that speed it’s fairly noisy, with sound levels reaching around 48dBA, but in general use the lowest setting will be fine, and this takes the noise levels down to 36.2dBA, where the sound is noticeable but hardly aggravating. The best air purifiers for mid-sized rooms 1. Sharp UA-HD50U-L: Best purifier and humidifier for mid-sized rooms

You’re more likely to know Acer for its PCs, laptops or monitors, but its foray into air purifiers shows a lot of promise. The Pro P2 is a mid-sized tower – just under 58cm tall – with the top accommodating the fan’s grille, the minimal controls, and a 1.5in square OLED colour screen. The latter gives you the current PM2.5 reading, plus an at-a-glance air quality indicator, with the text turning from green through amber to magenta as it worsens. Some purifiers have a built-in timer. This can be really useful if you want your machine to come on a few hours before you get home, or if you want to turn it off automatically at night. What about a carry handle? These are handy if you need to move it from room to room. Wheels, a compact design and a low weight won’t go amiss here, either.

Noise is another factor – you don’t want to replace one irritation (allergies) with another (the sound of a jet plane in your room). For many, the hum is something that doesn’t bother them, but some purifiers can get very noisy. It’s also worth remembering that, while some machines are quiet on their lowest setting (where they’re often at their least effective), they might be loud on the fastest (where they’re working at their best). Filter replacement indicators aren’t crucial and not all air purifiers have them, but this is a helpful feature as a clogged air cleaner won’t work properly.Spending more will get you something quieter with more power, but this is a decent little purifier for a small lounge, home office or bedroom if you’re working on a similarly sized budget. Breathe easy with the Russell Hobbs Ozone Free Clean Air Compact Air Purifier. This Air Purifier is perfect for small rooms up to 10m² and features an advanced 3-Layer filtration system, including a H13 HEPA filter. And with a CADR of 80m³/h, you can enjoy cleaner, purer air fast. This is one of those rare dual-function appliances that’s effective at both, and if the only downside is that it’s a bit weird looking, then that’s not exactly hard to live with. Throw in smart features, a good remote, and fairly frugal power consumption, and it’s a great addition to your living room or bedroom.
