The Coway Airmega AP-1512HHS is small, reliable, quiet, and (best of all) cheap. It has Wi-Fi and a digital assistant and can clean most of the harmful airborne particles out of a room without making too much noise.
The AP-1512HHS is an update to the well-liked Airmega AP-1512HH. It has the same slim, stylish design as its predecessor, but it also has smart features that let you control the device remotely or with your voice using Alexa or Google Assistant.
[content-egg-block template=offers_logo hide=price]Using the IoCare mobile app, you can also set a schedule for the AP-1512HHS and check the quality of the air both inside and outside. It’s easy to set up and runs quietly (except for the occasional roar when the fan spins at its fastest speed).

Where to get Coway Airmega AP-1512HHS air purifier?
When it comes to an appliance that will be on display in your bedroom, kitchen, or living room, looks do matter. After all, for an air purifier to work properly and efficiently, it needs to be placed in the middle of the room with at least a foot of space on all sides. This means you can’t just hide it in a corner or under a table.
The 16.8 x 18.3 x 9.6-inch Airmega AP-1512HHS looks more like a stylish subwoofer than an air purifier, which is a good thing. It has rounded edges, a glossy plastic surface, and a cool-looking ring on the front. The 12.3-pound machine, which can cover rooms up to 325 square feet, is easy to pick up and move because it has a built-in handle.
First, we looked at the air around us. Using an air particle counter before, during, and after the test, we found that the Coway AP-1512HH caught 72.4% of particles smaller than 0.3 microns and 72.7% of particles smaller than 2.5 microns when the fan speed was set to level 2. We found that this got better at the highest fan speed, when the purifier got rid of 89.9% of particles smaller than 0.3 microns and 92.8 of particles smaller than 2.5 microns.
The match test came next. We lit a bunch of matches one after the other to make a lot more particles in the room, and then we tried the purifier on both level 2 and level 3 to see how well it worked. At level 2, it got rid of 93.8% of particles that were 0.3 microns, 95.2% of particles that were 2.5 microns, and 99.4% of particles that were 10 microns.
