The only real issue is that it doesn't automatically search for a network after power loss, which apparently a lot of people couldn't figure out?

You just have to hit the wireless connection button once for it to reconnect.

My issue with a refurb is my older (4 or 5 year old running constantly) model has developed a high pitched coil whine. I feel like I'd rather get a new one next time it hits Costco for $99

This model no longer meets new air filtration standards for California.

Not sure whether it's because the PlasmaWave feature generates too much ozone or because of energy efficiency, but somehow Costco is getting around it and still sells them new.

Weird they really stress that their plasma wave stuff passes those standards don't they? I looked this up recently when searching for a purifier for my kids nursery

I have 4 of these around the house, one died but was covered under the 1 year warranty and it was replaced quickly. Just picked up another. They work well and you can get filters from amazon pretty cheap.

Do you have this model, and if so how does it compare to the rest? Which one would you recommend?

Costco once comes with additional filters. It's a better deal than buying these refurbs.

Same issue here. Last refurb I bought from Woot had an audible whine that my newly purchased from Costco did not have. Yes, I understand one is refurbed. However, it's probably a better deal to grab these at Costco for $30 more - get some extra filters and a better warranty.

Totally this ^^^^^. Three out of the four refurbs I purchased from Woot did it in year 2. I even tore one of them down and added some 3-in-1 oil to one side of the fan motor and it helped for a whopping 5 minutes. I also reached out to Winix support to get a repair estimate and they told me they don't work on them or sell parts and I should hire a local electrician to repair it lol! Fortunately, my credit card extended warranty took care of 3 out of 4 of them. The only way I would buy Winix again is from Costco and having the return policy. I'm not as big of a fan of this brand of air filters as a result.

I have had one of these for years with no issue. Has anyone who owns one tried any of the generic filters available for these? If so, which ones? I have always ordered the official Winix ones, but they are much more expensive.
