I often compare air purifiers that aren’t as popular as Winix, Levoit, Coway, and similar brands. That’s just how we work at Air Purifier First.
This time, I’m comparing the Airtok AP0601 and the MOOKA B-D02L, two models that don’t have the same level of recognition as the brands mentioned above.
Still, I’m sure there are people trying to decide between these two air purifiers.
In this article, I’ll compare their performance, specifications, and key features to help you determine which one is the better buying option.
Our Verdict
In general, these two are minimalistic air purifiers, lacking advanced features and offering only the essential features needed for work.
However, the Airtok includes an aroma pad feature, while the MOOKA has a night light, but neither of these features is a deciding factor in this comparison.
Based on our testing data, I’d say the MOOKA B-D02L performed better overall and is the better buying option. I favor this model for its higher CADR, slightly superior performance, and more efficient motor.
If you have any questions about these two air purifiers, feel free to ask in the comment section below the article.

Performance Test – Comparison
These are two small air purifiers with relatively low CADR and room coverage values. In practice, such devices often provide significantly less coverage than manufacturers claim.
The Airtok AP0601 has a CADR of 60 CFM (100 m³/h), while the MOOKA B-D02L has a CADR of 135 CFM (230 m³/h).
Particle Removal Tests - Comparison
We placed the Airtok AP0601 and MOOKA B-D02L in two separate tests and measured their performance using the Temtop laser particle meter.
Based on their recommended room sizes, we tested both air purifiers in different rooms, but the most interesting and relevant result for this comparison comes from a 120 sq. ft. (11 m²) room.
In this test, running continuously at maximum speed, the Airtok improved air quality by 86%, while the MOOKA achieved an 87% improvement.
The difference isn’t huge, especially considering I expected a much larger gap, given that the MOOKA is marketed as a bigger device with a higher CADR.
Still, the MOOKA B-D02L performed just slightly better in our airborne particle removal tests.
Noise Level Test – Comparison
When it comes to noise levels, the first thing to note is that the MOOKA has four fan speeds, while the Airtok has three.
We measured noise levels at all speeds using a professional sound level meter.
Noise Levels - Comparison
Comparison of noise levels at all fan speeds between the Airtok AP0601 and MOOKA B-D02L air purifiers.
At the lowest speed, the Airtok AP0601 produced 40.5 dBA, while the MOOKA B-D02L measured slightly higher at 40.7 dBA.
However, at the maximum speed, the Airtok is clearly better optimized, producing 55.8 dBA compared to the MOOKA’s 61.1 dBA.
| Fan Speed | AIRTOK AP0601 (dBA) | MOOKA B-D02L (dBA) |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep Mode | - | 40.7 dBA |
| Speed 1 (Low) | 40.5 dBA | 45.9 dBA |
| Speed 2 (Medium) | 43.4 dBA | 52.2 dBA |
| Speed 3 (High) | 55.8 dBA | 61.1 dBA |
The results speak for themselves: the Airtok AP0601 is better optimized for noise.
Operating Costs – Comparison
The first thing I noticed when comparing these two air purifiers is that both use well-optimized motors.
The Airtok is equipped with a 10W motor, while the MOOKA uses a 16W motor.
If you were to run these two air purifiers at maximum speed, 24 hours a day for one month, your electricity bill would increase by about $1.32 for the MOOKA and about $0.59 for the Airtok.
Monthly Power Consumption Cost - Comparison
Comparison of monthly power consumption costs for the Airtok AP0601 and MOOKA B-D02L air purifiers at all fan speeds.
However, beyond electricity costs, there’s also the cost of replacement filters. I noticed that while the filters on both devices last between 3–6 months, the MOOKA’s filter is much larger, meaning it could potentially last longer than the Airtok’s filter.
| Fan Speed | AIRTOK AP0601 (W + $/month) | MOOKA B-D02L (W + $/month) |
|---|---|---|
| Standby | 0W ($0) | 1.2W ($0.11) |
| Sleep Mode | - | 2.8W ($0.25) |
| Speed 1 (Low) | 1.4W ($0.12) | 5.1W ($0.45) |
| Speed 2 (Medium) | 2.7W ($0.24) | 8W ($0.7) |
| Speed 3 (High) | 6.7W ($0.59) | 15W ($1.32) |
So, even though the Airtok has a more energy-efficient motor, I believe the MOOKA B-D02L is better optimized for annual maintenance due to its larger filter and potentially lower replacement frequency.
