Filter for this model is "pain in the a" expensive
Different model and also came with 2 years of filters. Best to wait for that deal again for extra filters and Costco warranty, let alone the $99 price.
This is one of the better ones of this price range.

* low power consumption relative to air it can purify.
* good seal between filter means air isn't slipping by unfiltered.
* actual hepa filter. Not hepa-style.
* carbon filter isn't that useless mesh. It's actual carbon pellets with lots of surface area so it will remove more VOC's.


If you get one, make sure to use real filters. Lots of filters out there of unknown quality. Anyone can claim their paper is a hepa filter. At least the winix ones have been tested to actually work. It's pretty pointless to buy something like this then buy a cheap filter and hope it does something.

Should last at least a year with a filter. If you vaccum it out, and don't smoke or live in California wildfire areas, more like 18-24 months.

Quote from Raccoonish :
We have ours running in our bedroom a good 10+ hours a day and the HEPA filter, after about 6 months, was dark, and the air coming out was stinky. Granted, its the two humans and 1 dog in there, so I'm sure we stink it up fairly badly.
I have an older Winnix model which is similar to this one and a dog. I run ours in the Bedroom about the same amount of time per day and never had any smell from the filter even after 1 year when I would replace it.

YMMV but I got "Target Circle 15% off Home" offer in my account that took off another $17.77. Coming to $95 + tax with 15% off home and my Target Red card.

Quote from namlook :
Just be aware that this will likely reduce the machine's capability to filter rooms at the specifications that Winix claim.
by slightly reducing air intake? i know. but it's absolutely worth it. i don't notice it. only use it for household dust lint and some pollen. i don't even need hepa.
