People need to look at replacement filter availability and cost NOT the cost of the unit. These are just fans and HEPA filters. They are essentially nearly all the same. There are fancy ionization technologies, yeah sure that's all fine and well, but the HEPA filter is doing 95% of the filtration if not more.

If you want/need continual air filtration, pick a model with easy to obtain, relatively inexpensive replacement filters as they'll need to be changed every 3-6 months to remain effective.
Something else to keep in mind, the U.S. DOE set the first ever national energy efficiency standards for consumer air cleaners a few weeks ago. Compliance is required by the end of 2023. There will likely be sales of a lot of units that are inefficient since by next year, it won't be legal to sell them.

If you run these things pretty rarely, not likely a big deal for you, but if you're someone who runs an air purifier 24/7 in the summer to help with allergies or some other high usage use case, it's something to keep in mind.

Consumer air cleaners are eligible for the Energy Star label, so always helpful to look for that logo if electricity usage/bills are a concern.
I bought 3 of the Air320's for $80/each from the Woot.com deal a few weeks ago. They are louder than Winix 535 at their max setting but look much better costmetically with about the same coverage. I had a bunch of extra Winix charcoal prefilters and they fit pretty well in the Air320 as I wasn't not sure how well the built-in cloth prefilter would work. Based upon the square footage for the Air220, I'd probably go with a Winix instead -- especially if they were to go on sale at Costco for $100-$120 as you'd get an additional year of filters.

This is not HEPA level filter at anything but the lowest fan speed.

Can you explain this comment? I'm not sure how the fan speed affects the kind of filter.

EDIT: I see it SAYS that, but it's not clear to me why that would be the case.

Doesn't the air travel the same path regardless of fan speed? Why would the speed of the fan make a difference?

At higher speeds the fan creates enough suction to pull small particles through the filter.

I believe that, but is Bissell being more honest about this (all air purifiers don't achieve HEPA-level filtration at the highest speeds) or do other manufacturers design it more effectively?

Do not buy from QVC. Their customer service is really bad and there is always uncertainty in returns/replacements. You have to pay for the return shipment. Just FYI

You don't want ionization. It's hazardous to your health. Cleanaircrew has a list of safe air filters at all price points and they provide noise ratings for each. Also you can just build a cr box.

It's good advice, but this unit doesn't have an ionizer, as far as I can tell.
