I'd like to get one that has widely available filters and would prefer to spend less than $250 as much as I would like a Dyson one. It's only for an apartment so I don't think I need something massive but I do live above a busy road.

+1 for Winix. I’ve had several of the 5500-2 units for 2-3 years now. They do a good job and I appreciate that they have HEPA + charcoal filters so eliminates more than just particulates. My main complaint is that the lights don’t fully turn off at night so I always have to cover them with something (usually a T-shirt). Otherwise I really like them.

get yourself a roll of black electrical tape and cover up all the LEDs and brand logos in your place.
