Shark NeverChange HP152
Updated Nov 4, 2026 · Top Air purifiers
Best for Small bedrooms or offices where you would rather not buy filters every few months.
Its main selling point is a filter Shark says lasts up to five years, so running costs stay low. AirPurifierFirst measured 97 cfm and did well in a smoke test, which makes it a room of about 150 sq ft, not the 650 sq ft in the listing. TechGearLab ranked it fifth of 12 and noted it was not fast with heavy smoke. TechRadar found its air-quality readings too optimistic, so auto mode can under-react. The odour cartridge is scented, which not everyone wants.
