Using a dual filtration system made up of a carbon pre-filter and a True HEPA filter, the PureZone Air Purifier thoroughly cleanses and sanitizes particles measuring up to 0.3 microns within a 54-square-foot radius. It has straight-forward operation: It easily turns on and off with the touch of a button and offers three fan speed settings for customized air cleansing. Several Amazon shoppers vouched for its quiet motor, even on the highest level.

Beyond its effectiveness and ease of use, the personal air purifier is the perfect size for travel, measuring a petite 8.5 inches by 3.3 inches by 2.7 inches, and conveniently fits on nightstands, tray tables, and in cup holders. It only weighs 1 pound, which makes it purse-, briefcase-, and carry-on-friendly — one customer said that they tow it in the water bottle holder of their backpack. Plus, the rechargeable battery has a maximum run time of 12 hours.

It's earned more than 3,000 five-star ratings from reviewers, many of which have put it to the test while traveling. One wrote: "We've put this thing to use in a rental car, an Amtrak car, and on a plane trip (all in the space of one week this summer), and it really made us feel better about the entire experience."

In addition to creating a "nice little bubble of extra 'protection'" for one Amazon shopper, the mini air purifier also came in handy for neutralizing the odors in a hotel room that "wreaked of cigarette smoke." After calling it a "must-have for travel," the reviewer also noted that it helped alleviate smoke-induced headaches during a road trip, and that it fit comfortably in their cupholder.
