Summary: Awesome1
Comment: I love this product! My husband and I both have allergies and asthma, and 2 small dogs. We have the filter in our bedroom and I could tell a difference right away. We own two other Honeywell filters as well and this is my favorite one by far because there is no expensive filters to buy. For those of you who think this product is loud, you haven't had many air purifiers. It's not extreamly quiet but this one rates as one of the quietest even when on high!

Summary: Better ones out there than this
Comment: I had very high expectations for this as it is made by Honeywell, a trusted name. The unit features a UV light which is supposed to help kill bacteria, and more for even cleaner air.

I did not like the unit because of the smell it produced. The fan is quite silent on low, but too loud on high. When I leave it on all day, and with the door closed, I come back to find a "burnt plasticy" smell. Very hard to describe, but there is a smell, and I could not tolerate it. I sent it back for a replacement and the 2nd one did the exact same. Might be the fan motor heating up and releasing some of the plastic smell, I am not sure. There is an annoying whizz sound from the motor that is audible also when on high. Both units were returned back to Amazon. They took care of it quickly and easy!

The unit is made for a room up to 150 sq ft, and is a lot bigger in person that the picture makes you believe. I would compare the size to a small desktop pc.

When you turn on the UV function, a blue rim will light up on the top for an aesthetic effect, but does nothing else. You cannot turn it off unless you turn off the UV feature. Not good for light sleepers who are bothered by light and noise.

I cannot recommend this product because I feel there is a major design flaw. The unit's filter should have been sealed air tight to preserve the integrity of the filter materials. Some of the Styrofoam smell got adsorbed into the filter and you can smell it when you turn the machine on.

I recommend you spend a little more and buy a Rabbit Air BioGS. That thing is quiet and has been working for me brilliantly!

Summary: Works Great, but Misleading
Comment: The unit works ... but it is advertised as being quiet and being able to work for rooms of the described size. Well, it is either one or the other. If you set it to the recommended speed for a larger room, the is very loud. If you set it to the quietest setting, it only circulates the air in the recommended room size every couple of days.

I normally leaving it running on high when I am not home to scrub the room, but as soon as I come home, I put it back on low because it makes too much noise.

Summary: Works great as it should
Comment: Just used it one night and I slept GREAT, and I could smell the difference in air quality plus I've had the best night sleep I've ever had in years. Those complaining about noise: You must be comparing it to the Ionic Breeze which has no motor driven fan. Those are not HEPA and barely move any air at all, and only effectively cleans the air within the small perimeter of the unit itself. To move the air in a large area, you require a fan, and a fan will make a sound. I fell asleep with the unit on MEDIUM, on the LOW setting I actually found it too quiet, because I live in the city of Chicago and there is always noise going on outside - on medium it's quiet enough yet makes enough sound to block out all the city noises outside. It sounds like a running air conditioner or fan, it's pleasant. If you require complete silence to sleep, then Ionic Breeze might be the one for you (although it's ineffective at cleaning the air efficiently). Prior to this unit I had a Hunter 401 and filter replacements were expensive not to mention the motor-burn out problems I was having in the long term. I could smell the air quality difference within hours of this running on high compared to the Hunter 401.
