Cheaper thought not significantly, if you are absolutely sure there is no use for V5-Cell Gas & Odor Filter. This non-plus version is the one you should go for.
Airgle AG900
Another competitive alternative that has similar range price, build quality and performance with different filtration setup.
Blueair 650E
Impressive airflow performance at a lower price tag. Downside is the Short filter lifespan thus frequent replacing is required.Final thoughts on IQAir HealthPro Plus
