Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Airmega Jet quotes the highest CADR in this ranking at 402 cubic metres per hour, and the listing pairs that with the most thorough particle figure too: a 0.01 micrometre retention size on a HEPA filter, in a machine covering up to 104 square metres with a noise level given as 20 decibels and 50 watts of draw. It weighs 8.7 kilograms and stands 71.7 centimetres tall.
The listing names MegaJet technology for adjustable airflow and a GreenHEPA filter system, and refers to ECARF testing for allergy friendliness. At the time of collection it carried 436 ratings at 4.2 stars, so the evidence is thinner than its specification. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.
