Our Verdict
Mila Air 3
Austin Air HealthMate Junior
The Austin Air HealthMate Junior is inferior to the Mila Air 3. The Mila has a drastically higher CADR at its highest fan speed, making it far more useful for larger rooms. Beyond that, its lowest fan speed setting produces less noise, though the Austin Air is a little quieter at each unit's maximum fan speed.
