It was $74 USD on Banggood back in early February when I bought this (when bushfire smoke was an issue, not COVID-19). Not sure why it's gone up over 10%. I don't recall it being a special deal back then, but I could be wrong.
Am satisfied with it so far. A few times the unit "change filter" light came on, but it just seemed silly the filter was relatively clean and I hadn't had it that long. I don't run the filter 24/7, and I spread its use over 3 rooms. When there was smoke in my building (neighbour forgot about what was cooking), the PM2.5 level shot up as expected, and running the filter then reduced it back down over time.
Although not mentioned on the linked page, there is an ultra-violet light inside for sterilisation and killing germs. Not sure how powerful this is though.
