Shark NeverChange HP152
Shark BreatheClear HP162
The Shark BreatheClear HP162 and Shark NeverChange HP152 offer very similar overall performance. Their clean air delivery rates are closely matched, making both best suited for smaller rooms. However, the HP162 operates noticeably more quietly, particularly at higher fan speeds, and delivers slightly better particle filtration performance. The HP152 does have a slightly smaller footprint, making it a little easier to place on a desk, dresser, or shelf. Otherwise, the two share many of the same strengths and weaknesses, including long-life filters and a lack of Wi-Fi connectivity.
