I noticed the USA Today article you quoted for this, certainly not a random Internet source. While I am by no means an air purifier expert, I got lost geeking out on this stuff earlier this summer when I became frustrated with some of the games and wording differences the vendors use. For example, they will toss out a random sq.ft rating, but they each seem to pick different room air change rates. To address this, I built out calculations to compare industry-standard CADR rates as an accurate way to actually compare air purifiers.

For the two air purifiers mentioned, the DustMagnet 5210i seems be significantly less efficient than the Winix C545 per below where simply speaking, higher is better (and if someone does consider themselves an expert on this and want to educate me more, please!):

CADR Dust
DustMagnet 5210i CFM:133
Winix C545 CFM:245
DustMagnet 5210i M3/hr: 226.1
Winix C545 M3/hr: 413.1

CADR Smoke
DustMagnet 5210i CFM:137
Winix C545 CFM:246
DustMagnet 5210i M3/hr: 232.9
Winix C545 M3/hr: 418.2


CADR Pollen
DustMagnet 5210i CFM: 140
Winix C545 CFM: 232
DustMagnet 5210i M3/hr: 238
Winix C545 M3/hr: 394.4

I have a blueair purifier. It runs 24/7 and is merely white noise. For the few times in years it has been off for a few days, I can tell the difference in air quality.

My suggestion is to buy one that's rated at a higher square footage than the room this will be sitting in. Since it will be overpowered, you can run it on low and get the minimum amount of noise while enjoying great purification.

The Winix C545 is rated for 360 sq ft is HEPA and on sale for $99 right now at Costco with an extra set of filters included in the price. That's an amazing deal.

As mentioned earlier Costco has the dustmaget for $200 with an extra set of filters which cost $50 so maybe a slightly better price at costco with a better return policy.

A review that compares the dustmaget to a different winix model, the 5500 says

The Blueair Dustmagnet has a faster rate of clearing out particulate matter, such as allergens. The Winix is still pretty good at clearing particulates, but isn't as fast as the Blueair. On the other hand, the Winix is much better than the Blueair at dispersing volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

If you're mostly concerned about allergies, the Blueair Dustmaggnet 5410i is one of the best air purifiers you can buy. If you're looking for more of an all-arounder, or if you work with paint, varnish and other materials that release ample VOCs, the Winix is for you

I am not disagreeing with your rationale and have similar thinking. An additional point - an air purifier on low setting does have lower airflow, and therefore a lower cadr rating than what is normally published. The reason for mentioning this is that this can often be significantly lower than what may be expected on low, really reducing the "great purification" to benefit noise/power bill.

Medium settings usually are at least 50% of the stated value, making it easier to roughly compare units.

I hope that makes sense?

Would air purifier help improve oxygen level in an apartment with sealed windows? There's an air duct in the apartment but I always feel the airflow sucks.

This was going to be my question. My previous research on air purifiers pushed me aware from Blueair because of the ozone. This was tempting but haven't researched the model to confirm if the same is the case. I ended up with a Coway AirMega 400S last time I was in the market.

You are comparing a smaller model Dustmagnet than the one in this deal. Basically comparing an apple to a orange.

The 5210 should be significantly less as it is rated for 212 sf. Also, that is a smaller completely different model.

This one is nearly identical to the Winix. Both rated for 360 sf.

Shows how the world works now. You get bumps and likes for spreading disinformation and people actually believe it. 😀

You're comparing the C545 with the 5210i instead of the 5410i, which is why you're seeing a huge discrepancy.

The 5410i and C545 are both rated for about 300sqft on paper, while the 5210i is only rated for 200sqft.

The trouble with on paper values is that real world application introduces so many variables that can skew actual results, starting with the fact that you're never going to be sending one type of particulate through. The surface area of the filter is also a big one. Other things to consider are that some people might fare better with top fed units vs side fed because of pet hair, differences in climate affecting particulate dispersion, etc.

I'd also imagine most people consider the dB rating before the CFM, not realizing that a larger, slightly louder unit will run less often because they're more efficient.

Maybe you're creating particulate faster than it can filter it?

Do you have pets?

When in doubt, always go larger than the sqft of the room.

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect.

The one from Blueair only includes the preinstalled filters, while the Costco one comes with an entirely second set.

These filters run in pairs.

One of the reviews shows that two are required.

You know that because you bought it at Costco? It looks to me like a Costco purchase gives you two sets of filters, so double the filters as buying direct.

For extra $30 you get an extra pair of filler from Costco. That's a slickdeal. Why buy direct
