I have a Microbiology background so I am picky with my air purifiers. This Luma Comfort model has all the features you need
I picked this up a few weeks ago, just as my allergies started to act up again. I was looking for the best bang for my buck, but with my background I also wanted quality.
What's really great about this unit are all the different filters and UV light. The HEPA seems high quality, and the activated carbon is so great to have I won't go into the chemistry behind it, but it makes a huge difference in air quality. Throw in the UV light, and you have a high end air purifier.
It's nice and quiet on the lower settings, but on high it does sound like a fan running on high, obviously. The only thing I would change is adding a remote control. It would be nice to turn it on from the other end of the room. Other than that, this is a steal.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I use this on a relatively small area. Obviously, with a 400 SQ ft cleaning capacity, it's not a whole house purifier. It's better suited for one large room or multiple adjacent smaller sized rooms combined to 400 sq ft. I use it in my living room and close the doors to all other rooms when in use. You must run the unit with all doors and windows closed for it to be effective. The unit is small and relatively quiet. It can easily be stuck in a corner without being too obtrusive. It runs quiet on low and pretty quiet on medium fan speeds. The high fan speed is moderately loud but still quieter than most box or window fans sound at high setting. The purifier has touch sensitive controls instead of hard buttons. It comes pre-assembled with the filters already in place, however, you must open the unit to remove the plastic wrapping from the filters. The replaceable filters have a rated effective life of six months to a year, with the exception of the carbon filter which is rated 60-90 days. The amount of use and pollutants in the environment, such as heavy dust or pet dander, affect filter life. It also has a UV light for killing mold spores and certain bacteria. The UV light can be turned on or off as desired.
Thanks to higher than average temperatures for most of September, I haven't had many opportunities to close the windows due to the heat and need for fresh air. I have fall allergies, so when the temperatures finally dropped, I could not wait to run the purifier more regularly. I primarily run it during the day while I'm at work and overnight while sleeping. Although my fall allergies don't seem quiet as bad as normal this year, in the interest of full disclosure I've also been taking a new much more effective allergy medication since spring. The one thing I have noticed is less lingering odors, especially from the pup. I don't know if it's the dander being removed or what, but it seems to keep the area where we keep our pup crated smelling a bit more neutral instead of doggy-like.
The true test will come in the spring when my allergies hit full blast and even the new and improved allergy meds aren't able to cut it alone. I'm hoping the Luma will give me that little extra edge if we track pollen or other irritants into the living room. Other than that, I'm satisfied with the ease of setup, use, quietness, size and what effectiveness I've been able to observe so far.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This unit has multi-stage filtering, with separate filters for odors, bacteria, etc. The final UV stage will control bacteria and is a very welcome addition to this filter. There are five filter stages, so you will get a good, clean air output with this purifier. There are indicators to let you know when the filters need to be changed, so you will always be able to keep the purifier at peak performance.
The filter stages are: HEPA filter, carbon pre-filter, UV light, TiO2 filter and VOC filter
I set this up in my parents' house to test it out, as they use purifiers and were not completely satisfied with their units. This unit is extremely quiet on the slower settings, so it will not create a lot of noise if you don't want to hear it. The sound is a bit louder (somewhat like a fan) if you turn it up to the highest setting, but it is still not bad.

Honest reviews on Luma Comfort AP400W HEPA Air Purifier with 5-Stage Advanced Air
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We've got this set up in our bedroom. It is quiet enough to not bother us while we sleep. The various speeds help deal with different issues like wet dog smell or bursts of pollen. My partner isn't a germ-o-phobe, but he is aware of germs. The ultraviolet light has given him a nice sense of comfort.
A warning: A couple of the filters come wrapped in plastic, so be sure you go through them to remove those layers before using. Also, one of those filters is a carbon filter. It is a bit messy, so handle carefully unless black powder doesn't bother you.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I wanted an air purifier when my family and I moved into an ever-so-musty new home. A week after that, my parents had a bit of a basement flood. So I tested this unit in both situations and am quite pleased with the results. The new home no longer had the musty smell after only a couple of days, and this gave significant improvement to the smell of the flooded basement. I really felt the air in both situations was significantly cleaner. The unit is also easy to use with customization options in both power and time, which is handy. This is a fairly basic purifier, nothing terribly fancy, so those looking for a lot more bells, whistles, and wild results might want to look elsewhere, but I found it great for basic usages, though on its highest level its noisier than other purifiers I've seen/heard. I've noticed other reviewers commenting the highest level of sound isn't bad, but it does bother me. It's attractive in its white simplicity and the shape makes this very space-friendly.
