The CADR on this unit is pretty low. It would work for a very small space. There's not substantial savings on filter cost or unit price. It's not terribly power efficient either.
I'd stick with real filters for any of these since their effectiveness is based on the filter. Swapping out with a lesser quality or unknown quality filter means you're potentially reducing effectiveness if someone decides they want to go with a slightly thinner medium to save a little money.
A bigger Winix or Coway will cost less relative to the amount of air it can clean. If you've got a small space, it just means that filter will last that much longer until saturated and needs to be replaced. If you've got a bigger space it will clean it faster, and maintain/restore it quicker.
I just don't see the value in this thing other than Honeywell being a well known brand.
Also bigger filters have more surface area, fans need to spin less to move the same amount of air. These compact units sacrifice a lot for being small.
The Honeywell is louder than my C545 and moves half the air. It's not just loudness either; the fans on my Honeywell air purifiers have an awful sound profile. The C545 and my GermGuardian have a gentle whooshing sound on all but the highest setting, which is in part due to the larger fans and lower RPM needed. The Honeywell's have a much choppier and more annoying sound on all but the lowest setting.
The Honeywell works just fine (prevented me from catching the flu from my roommate) but it's nothing fancy and there are much better performing units with better features for the price.

C545 = 14"D x 8"W x 21"H
HPA100 = 13.54 x 8.9 x 13.94 in.
The size of units is always something to take into consideration. Larger fans can move more air on lower settings which can result in lower dB depending on how you use them.
This model is great for a laundry room or small bedroom. Otherwise, the HPA200 or HPA300 are what someone would want for a larger room or space.
Note: My absolute favorite part of HPAx00 series is that all three sizes use the same HEPA filters, so I buy in bulk and save on cost filter replacement costs.
