  Honeywell hepa!! I take the smallest one they make and it helps so much. I've tried many and this is the best for fragrance filtering. Just let the filter air out for 24 hrs first before ise

  Definitely. If I forget to bring it I go to the nearest Walmart and get the smallest hepa air filter.

  I travel with my Molekule and it works great in hotels! Fits in a suitcase too

  I was in a hotel recently and couldn't tolerate the fragrance. Ran over to Walmart and bought a Levoit before they closed. Didn't do much so I took it back after I checked out of the hotel. Interested to see others comments here.

  If I’m driving I take my coway air purifier. I have used a levoit mini also and I’m not sure if it did much.

  Yes. I bring my Air Oasis to every hotel when I travel

  I have mcs from being exposed to mold and I always call ahead and request a room that uses unscented products and this has really helped when traveling- I even do this in Ubers . I have also found taking some peppermint spray and spritzing some in the room helps me breathe better. If on a plane and someone is wearing strong perfume, I’ll roll a peppermint roller on my inner wrist to block the smell

  I like an airfanta 3 pro with carbon. because of its design it can fold flat and fit in a suitcase. When the power went out at last place, the scent started coming back.

  I take my portable personal air filter and I usually take the air doctor - works great and I disable the wifi too - drop the emf!!

  I would never contaminate my air purifier. A high tech is different because it's metal and can be cleaned. It's PCO technology but never my air doctors unless you have a specific one for travel. But still those don't do anything for mycotoxins just dust particulates and spores.

  I was just looking at the ones available at Costco. I’m going to Atlanta next week for over a month. Any inside on winix?

  I ran a brand new air oasis in the hotel rooms I traveled from Arizona up to Portland in and was very happy I had it in Bend during a very high smoke day from the forest fires. The last hotel I was in was fairly scented and I ran it in the room 24 seven almost a month. When I turned it back on in my brand new RV space it smells like perfume and was told I had to replace the filters which was super disappointing given that they supposedly had a charcoal portion to remove scents. I’m actually not happy with air oasis products with the newer models. They actually sell some kind of silicone kit to plug up gaps that I noticed while cleaning the machine out. I mean come on you guys do better!!! So anything you run in a scented environment or a moldy environment you may need to change your filters in your home environment to make sure you’re not cross contaminating…

  Helped tremendously!! We travel with our 2000 unit on road trips. Wish they had a compact unit we could take on flights!! Has anyone found one?

  I have 2 winix and 2 levoits. I prefer my winix! I take that big guy with me everytime we travel. Hotel rooms take me out but I noticed a difference taking my winix. Levoit didn't do much.
