Achoo!
Bless you, and bless having a good air purifier this year to deal with allergy season.
When the weather warms up, pollen and dust love swirling in the air, and for those of us stuck with seasonal allergies, allergy medications become our new best friend. No matter how many times you break out the vacuum cleaner, mop the floors or scrub your home with all-purpose cleaner, it’s not always enough to rid your space of tiny dust and pollen particles.
The best air purifiers will save your nose from dripping and eyes from itching due to seasonal allergies. To help alleviate those symptoms, home air purifiers suck the pollen and allergens from the air, which saves us from having to take allergy medications day in and day out.
Plus, for those pet owners out there, an air purifier can make a huge difference when cleaning up pet hair and dander — especially if you find yourself going through a lot of carpet cleaner. One in particular actually went viral on TikTok for the sheer amount of pet hair it collected in just a few days, which looked to be enough to build a new furry friend out of.
The video has over one million views and counting, sucking up our attention as well. The Okaysou Air Purifier ($116) from the video is actually still in stock on Amazon, while supplies last. With all things TikTok, we don’t know how long that will be, so our best advice would be to add to cart now and thank us later.
There are a ton of other options out there whether you need a larger device for a bigger home or keeping pet hair at bay. There are even compact tabletop air purifiers ideal small spaces or to keep near you when allergies get worse.
