BenchPicked data

Air purifier specifications and ownership-cost dataset

Name: Air purifier specifications and ownership-cost dataset
Creator: BenchPicked

Normalized CADR, room-size, noise, power, filtration, and evidence-status fields for the current BenchPicked air-purifier set.

Version 2026.09.24 11 records Updated 2026-09-24

What the data represents

Values are normalized from the named manufacturer and standards-directory sources already attached to each BenchPicked page. Units are preserved rather than converted when operating conditions are not equivalent.

This is a source-attributed comparison dataset, not a BenchPicked laboratory test. The Levoit Core 400S CADR row remains pending verification pending a same-model AHAM or equivalent primary record.

Fields and coverage

Field definitions

Record ID: Stable dataset record identifier.
Product: Product identity used by the linked BenchPicked page and cited source.
Dust CADR (CFM): Published clean-air delivery rate for dust, in cubic feet per minute.
Smoke CADR (CFM): Published clean-air delivery rate for smoke, in cubic feet per minute.
Pollen CADR (CFM): Published clean-air delivery rate for pollen, in cubic feet per minute.
Stated Coverage: Manufacturer or directory room-coverage statement with its original conditions preserved.
Noise Range (dB): Published minimum-to-maximum sound range; not a BenchPicked measurement.
Power (W): Published rated or operating power in watts.
Filter Type: Published filtration configuration, without upgrading marketing terms into test results.
TCO Inputs: Known ownership-cost inputs and unresolved variables used by the calculator.
Evidence Status: Current evidence classification; unknown or unresolved fields are not converted to zero.
Source URLs: Source pages used for the published values in this record.
Research Page: BenchPicked research page associated with the record.
