Take advantage of the quiet summer season and snap up a deal on one of the best air purifiers. Our favorite budget all-rounder, the HoMedics TotalClean Deluxe 5-in-1 is a huge 56% off, saving you around $140. It is now at its lowest-ever price. But hurry, because it's a limited time deal.

The spring hay fever season may be long gone, but for a lot of people, the allergy woes are far from over. Mold spores, ragweed pollen and many other airborne allergens can see a big spike in August. The good news is that having a robust air purifier like the HoMedics TotalClean Deluxe 5-in-1 can take the edge off allergy symptoms.

This sleek all-rounder has almost everything you would want from an air purifier these days: three different filters to trap a wide range of pollutants, a UV-C sanitizer and ionizer to enhance the purification power, five fan speed settings, a remote control and even an essential oil tray for some indulgent aromatherapy. It is also easy to use, compact and pleasant on the eye. More importantly, it does what it is supposed to — deliver on air-cleaning performance.

It does lack the 'cool' smart features, though, which is why we knocked off one star of its otherwise glowing rating in our HoMedics TotalClean Deluxe 5-in-1 air purifier review. But for only $109.99, it is hardly a deal-breaker.

Price history: For the better part of this year, the price of the HoMedics TotalClean Deluxe 5-in-1 fluctuated between $127.69 and $249.99. Today's offer from Amazon brings the price down to just $109.99 — the lowest it has ever been.

Price comparison: HoMedics: $249.99 | Best Buy: sold out | Target: sold out | Walmart: $127.63

Review consensus: The HoMedics TotalClean Deluxe 5-in-1 packs heaps of value at an affordable price. This air purifier is sleek, compact and intuitive to use, but more importantly, it can trap a wide range of airborne pollutants without putting a strain on energy bill. However, it is not as efficient as some of the more premium models, and it does not have any smart features, either. ★★★★
