Pros

  • +Affordable (under 100 bucks)
  • +Good for main area
  • +Good for bedroom

Cons

  • -Requires weekly maintenance (oiling bearings)

I've a Levoit 300 and the only big issue I've noticed is having to oil the bearings then run it at max for a few minutes each week so it doesn't make a squeaking noise.

Sharp plasma cluster is legit. They sold over 100 million modules. It might actually be effective (minimally) inside a fridge where it's a completely enclosed environment.
