It obviously doesn't get rid of all the odor but it definitely made a difference in the musty basement smell there was. If I spend some time down there and go back upstairs you can actually smell upstairs is kinda off. Going to get a few more of these units for around the house and bedrooms.
The air quality sensor works great (will detect cooking orders, alcohol based spray cleaners remarkably well for example) and third party replacement filters can be easily found on Amazon pretty cheap.
The only issue that I have with them is that if the power goes out even briefly these units will default to off and will not turn on automatically. I've had instances where the my C545s have been off for weeks without me being aware due to a very minor power outage that lasted less than 5 seconds.
Overall I would dare say that refurbished C545s are the best bargain/overall bang for buck you can get currently. Nothing in their price range has come close to what C545s offer IMO; at least I have not found anything that can compare price and feature wise...
In for another one as I missed the last one. Thanks OP!

Some of the others are starting to make noise as well, there could be a way to replace only the bearings - I may try that on one of the loud ones if I can find replacements - they look similar to bearings you'd find in a skateboard wheel but require some desoldering to access the bearings.
I think winix works the best, I do have them with similar capacity too. Invision clean is meh, but it has a uv light or and ion, no night mode, no wifi. It's been in my house for 3 years. Then coway is better than invisionclean, it has smart detection of air quality and auto turns on high or low, night mode, no uv light tho (mu model doesnt). However it cleans well, because we have dogs and cats, and I can't believe how I survived without an air purifier in my bedroom, after getting that coway one, you don't smell any animal and I don't sneeze before I get up anymore. Winix I got last year, I think it is the best, I think this is the same model I got too, it works well, I have it in my living room, and my kitchen is all open and I cook a lot, but it helps clean the air within 30mins. All of my air purifiers are working fine, they are on 24/7, barely hear them, unless turn on high. The coway has been 3.5 years, invisionclean has been 3 years and this winix has been on for a year and never had a problem. (fingers crossed lol).
