Why it matters
The Westhey AP02 Air Purifier is a large-room / whole-floor air purifier that its maker rates for 1650 square feet.
At the usual 4.8 air changes an hour and an 8-foot ceiling, a 1,650-square-foot rating implies about 1,056 cubic feet of clean air a minute. In a 12-by-15-foot bedroom that would turn the air over roughly 44 times an hour.
Filtration: HEPA. Quietest setting, per the listing: 15 db. Power draw: 12 watts.
Price-wise it sat in the cheapest third of the 57 large-room / whole-floor models we cover when we checked; the button shows today's price.
It qualifies for our lists Best Air Purifiers for Large Living Rooms, Best Air Purifiers for Home Offices, where it is ranked against every model that meets the same rule.
Its rated room size of 1,650 square feet is above the middle of the range we cover: 104 of the 152 purifiers with a stated figure come in lower, and the range runs from 62 square feet to 4,800 square feet.
The listing gives a weight of 3.5 pounds.
