Can someone recommend me a decent air purifier? (leminal.space)

I'd like to get one that has widely available filters and would prefer to spend less than $250 as much as I would like a Dyson one. It's only for an apartment so I don't think I need something massive but I do live above a busy road.

On mobile so won't grab all the links, but I've done a lot of research into air purifiers and can echo what most people said

Most air purifiers over 50$ are as good as the ones that sell for 150$+
I personally buy Winix
An air purifier can clean a room in 1-3 hours, but since I'm paranoid I keep mine running 24/7
Don't buy anything over 100$, it's not worth it (if you want super clean rooms, buy one for each side of your house)
Clean your air purifier (just wash the filter) every month or two (there's a lot of dust it traps)
Enjoy the investment, air purifiers are great!
