Pros

  • I have Winix 5520. I have 3 dogs and a cat. I’m allergic to. Since getting this brand I no longer notice my allergies. Everyone that visits say that can breathe better in my home
  • I just received my Winix 5520 yesterday and have had no extra smells in my house. It’s been running since 3pm yesterday with zero issues or smells.
  • Levoit vital 200s or winix 5510,5530,5520. Costco c909 can also be good if a black colorway fits.
  • Winix 5510,5520,5530 or even c909 from Costco online are good options
  • Winix 5520 or 5530 are on a good prime day sale atm

Cons

  • Take a unit like the Winix 5520. It has a top Smoke CADR of 253 CFM. Going by the AHAM 2/3 rule, the 5520 should run in a room no larger than 379 sq. ft. (with an 8 ft. ceiling). And this is under more or less "normal" pollution scenarios.
  • There are better models out there than the Winix 5520.

Maybe just one big unit + one or two smaller units with some carbon in it (maybe Winix 5510 5520 which has a sensor to detect VOCs). I would personally get one Winix for less than 200$, worst case scenario it can be the purifier in your bedroom.
