Winix is a 50 plus year old Korean company and I just trust them with stuff like purifiers and other appliances. (See also: LG, Samsung, etc...) Even though not all their products are made in Korea, the quality is usually pretty solid.
I have a relative with two cats who is loyal to the Winix “C” and “D” series that Home Depot sells. (Also on Winix website.) They don’t include the Plasmawave option which I’m okay with since I want to eliminate even the slighest risk of ozone to pets.
Ok...thanks.
