The LEVOIT Air Purifier is on sale at Amazon ahead of Black Friday

If all the folks sneezing and coughing around you haven’t tipped you off, cold season is upon us.

And while I wholly recommend stocking up on green powders and vitamins to boost your immune system, another thing I suggest is picking up an air purifier, like the LEVOIT Air Purifier.

If you don’t have allergies, you may not realize how such a device can help you when flu season emerges, but air purifiers are amazing at removing lots of nasty things from the air, including microscopic germs.

Not all air purifiers are created equal, however, so you’ll want to grab one that has a HEPA filter, which is known for removing up to  99.9% of airborne bacteria. And as luck would have it, the LEVOIT Air Purifier has one of those, and is just shy of $85 with a special coupon on Amazon.

Capable of cleaning the air of a 1,073-square-foot room, the LEVOIT Air Purifier is ideal for your bedroom, living room, and kitchen. Using a 56W High-Torque Motor combined with a 143 CFM CADR, it’s fast, efficient, and surprisingly quiet.

Engineered to remove ultra-fine particles, it can absorb smoke, odor from last night’s dinner, and other icky things that make you cough and sneeze, plus it even has a Sleep Mode for when it’s time to go to bed.

Less than 10 pounds, the compact device it easily tucked into a corner and is sleek enough not to mess with your home’s aesthetic. While it’s traditionally priced at $100, it’s currently 10% off at Amazon, and even less when you use the available coupon. Simply click the box before adding the purifier to your cart, and you’ll enjoy fresher, germ-free air for less than $85 — cheaper than my last copay.

An Amazon Choice product, more than 40,000 shoppers purchased it last month.

“Within just a few days of running it, our family felt a huge difference — no more stuffy noses,” one customer wrote in their review. “The air in the room feels cleaner and smells fresher, and it does an amazing job of capturing particles. I want to emphasize other reviewers’ point that it takes a few days before you feel the full effect.”

While I think the current deal isn’t anything to sneeze at, you may also want to consider the Mini version, which is $42. Barret Wertz, our senior commerce editorial director, owns one and found it to be impressively strong for something so small.

“After buying a house with a small bathroom directly off the kitchen, I knew I needed a small air purifier that didn’t take up much space, didn’t make much noise, and did remove anything questionable from the air from said bathroom,” he shared. “I found it with this mini LEVOIT. It packs a powerful punch with three settings and has a minuscule footprint.”
