I tested these units based on what actually matters in real use:

• Performance: How much power they deliver and whether they can handle the load without shutting down
• Noise Levels: Nobody wants a generator-level racket from their “quiet” power station
• Filter Cost and Maintenance: Long-term ownership costs that manufacturers love to downplay

• Value: Whether you’re getting your money’s worth or just paying for fancy marketing

5. Price: Set a budget and stick to it. These things have a way of creeping up in cost.
