For air filtration in my basement office I looked at pretty much everything out there. Most of the stuff costs a ton of money and filters are outrageous. It wouldn't be esthetically pleasing for a living room but I ended up with a twenty inch box fan and a 20X20 high performance furnace filter attached to the back of it. Instead of $185 rig I ended up with a $16 set, fan and filter, that filters a bunch of air and catches stuff down to the tiny particle level. And replacement filters are only five bucks each.

You could probably find a smaller more eye appealing fan and smaller filters.

Try sprayingthe filter with mineral oil.......it is a great attractantant

I have a new stove in a new house(to me) and I am noticing alot of dust as well. Not ashes/dust like you would expect around the stove area, but across the room on the TV. Television screens are dust magnets I know but I have been cleaning it daily...run your fingers accross it 24hrs later and it's covered, all the while the stove is dust free! Can't figure it out.
