I know there have been many discussions about these and I get the feeling that Austin Air and RabbitAir are considered the best.
I was considering the RabbitAir that mounts on the wall to save floor space which is limited in the bird room.
Rabbit Air MinusA2 (model SPA-700A covers 700 sq. ft.) Ultra-Quiet Air Purifier - Stylish, Efficient and Energy Star® Certified, Includes Wall Mount, White, Pet Allergy: Amazon.ca: Home & Kitchen
The thing that's a turn off is the price of the filters.
Rabbit Air MinusA2 filter replacement kit [Pet]: Amazon.ca: Home & Kitchen
So this looks like 4 filters but I assume they all go in together or that they are just showing what's inside 1 filter. So it's really just 1 replacement for over $100?
So I was leaning towards this Honeywell model with a permanent Hepa filter:
Honeywell Permanent True Hepa Round Air Purifier With Germ Reduction: Amazon.ca: Home & Kitchen
but then see that people that bought it bought these "pre-filters":
Honeywell Activated Carbon Prefilter: Amazon.ca: Home & Kitchen .
So are they just pretending it doesn't need filter changes by calling them "pre-filters"? I understand there is another permanent plastic filter inside that is good for several years but it's kind of misleading.
Then there's the Austin that is, at least, on wheels:
Austin Air Air Purifier (Pet Machine HM410, Sandstone): Amazon.ca: Home & Kitchen
but replacement filters are $350 up so no go.
Comments if you have experience with one or more of the RabbitAir wall mount and/or the Honeywell Permanent Hepa?
