I have used several of these in the house over the years and they are very good. Amazon seems to be OOS at the moment but you can usually pick them up for $135-150 shipped.
I plan to use 4 for my 1100 sq ft shop and mount three off them at about 8 feet on 3 different walls either on shelves or on top of cabinets. I will have a 4th buit into a rolling cart that I can move near me when sanding etc.
I plan to wire the 3 wall units onto a circuit run by something like this:

That will allow me to run them constantly when in the shop and leave them running for a specific time when I leave. This gives you all the functionality of the standard units except remote control which you could do if you liked but I feel unneeded since you don't turn them on and off a lot. 3 of them are equal in air movement to the oft-recommended Jet and cost only a little more and are true HEPA filters.
I have this Honeywell unit running in my living room and it is pretty loud, louder than a box fan on low and even louder on high. We run it on low all day very rarely run it on high. Good unit, can vacuum the filters monthly, seems to work for us.
