11 Air Purifier Brands You Can Actually Trust to Breathe Easier

1. Dyson — The Fancy Name, But Is It Worth It?

Dyson’s vacuum cleaners are legendary, but their air purifiers? Well, they’re decent but pricey. Consumer Reports gave Dyson an average user satisfaction score (3 out of 5) and only moderate reliability. For example, the Dyson BP03 model scores a 69 in testing but costs nearly $1,000 — that’s steep compared to similar or better-performing units from other brands. So if you want fancy looks, Dyson’s your pick, but if you want bang for your buck, keep looking.
