 "It was a present for my mom" 2009-05-05
By C. Rosario
I can't give a complete product review because this was a present for my mother who is asthmatic. It got there in great time and so far it's only been a month but she loves it and has said that it's not loud or extremely big. So for the price and the other good reviews I feel that this was a good buy!

 "Very quiet" 2008-09-29
By J. Rogers (Ohio)
It is expensive, but this is a very well made smooth unit that is very quiet. On medium it's still more quiet then the cheap fan in my computer. It does move a little bit of air, which can be cold if your sitting in front of it. So I moved it sideways, and now it does not blow air on me. The filter looks to be good with more cubic inches of actual filtration compared to the cheaper quacker box filtration units.

 "Exactly as described" 2008-04-26
By Brian G. Collins (Louisville, KY USA)
I ordered this unit last week and received it yesterday.

I must say, I am impressed and I knew I would be. This is such a great purchase. It has three speeds, the lowest is very quiet. I usually have it on 2nd speed because it is no louder than a small desk fan. The highest speed is about a loud as the AC on high, although I slept with it on high last night and didn't notice and I think I'm a light sleeper.



Overall, this product is great. The "ion" mode says it uses ions to make the room smell clean, but that is hard to tell. I will say, this unit makes my room smell a lot fresher and the air is better. The peace of mind with this unit is great.



The manual says it removes the common "pollutants" of Bacteria, Mold Spores, Pollen, Dust Mites and Viruses. Pollen and mold spores are 10-20 microns and a human hair has a diameter of 100 microns for comparison. So this unit traps very small, invisible particles that you would otherwise be breathing.



Must buy!

 "Excellent air filter for the price" 2008-04-02
By Nick Carrigan (Redmond, WA)
I received my first unit from Alen and it was slightly defective. The power switch worked, but the speed and Ion setting were flakey. After running the unit (stuck on low and no ion) the unit suddenly started working. I emailed Alen Product Support and they shipped me out another unit within 24 hours. I emailed them back to say it was working fine, but they insisted I get the 2nd unit anyway.



The 2nd unit worked as described and didn't have any problems out of the box. I am giving this product 5-stars based on its overall performance and the excellent Alen customer service.



I would also point out that this is not a "small" unit. At first, I thought it was meant for a desk or small stand, but this is 18" and a sleek 4-5" in width. The unit weighs next to nothing (and there's a smart cubby-handle) if you need to move it around often.



Removing the filters is a cinch and anyone can do this. However, Alen does recommend using gloves when changing out the filter every 6 months (if the unit is used continuously.)



The fan speed/noise factor is very good. The low setting is just quiet enough that one can easily sleep thru it (if placed in a bedroom.) The medium to high settings are probably going to be a bit too noisy if sleeping. It really depends on placement. At 10ft or so, you'll barely hear it running (on the low setting.)



The controls are well-designed and are easily managed. (The lights from the controls may light up a dark room, so that might be another reason to leave it off at night.)



One last note: the base of the unit does have a swivel. So the base stays one direction, and you can rotate the unit about 25 deg in each direction.

 "happy with my decision" 2007-10-30
By Erik Crimmin (Boston, MA United States)
i put this in my bedroom for the following reasons:

-i would wake up during the night and in the morning feeling slightly sick and groggy

-my room (in an old brick building) smelled weird



the day i plugged this unit in i noticed a difference in my bedroom. i don't wake up with a stuffy head and the air quality is noticeably better. in the end, i feel better about spending time in my bedroom and worry less about the air quality there.



i don't know what the ionizing function does and have not turned it on. only used the air intake filter.



i'm considering getting the t300 for my parents' living room. they have a wood stove that they love but burning wood leaves a grimy film on the windows and walls, not to mention what it must be doing for my parents' lungs.



i would highly recommend this unit for a small room.

 "To respond to some inaccurate information..." 2009-01-15
By CAT
Many people do not understand what ozone is, therefore they are afraid of it and say all manner of inaccurate statements about it. The reason air purifiers and especially the Ecoquest air purifiers work so well is that they are modeled after nature itself.



Ozone is created in nature all the time, especially around moving water, in the mountains and after thunderstorms, to clean the air, but in conjuction with water it does more. It is also found wherever there is pollution...and there is a reason for that. There are several things ozone was designed to do. To name two: clean/purify the air of pollutants and kill mold.



A molecule of ozone is O3 while oxygen is O2 and water is H2O. Here's a picture that might help in understanding this entire process and the bad rap ozone gets from some. If there is a fire, then the firemen are alerted and they go to the fire to fight it and put it out. Now, if we started saying that firemen cause fires, because they are always there whenever there is a fire, that would be silly. It's the same way with ozone. Calling ozone a pollutant or saying it is the cause of pollution is not scientifically accurate. Ozone forms when there are pollutants in the air, therefore, the more pollutants there are, the more ozone there is.



The O3 actually has one atom of the three that is unstable. This is why it can clean pollutants out of the air. This unstable atom gets attracted to the pollutant atoms and puff!...it then oxidizes (burns up.)Then you have a clean oxygen molecule, O2, because the third one is gone! It continues on with this process until all the air is cleaned. This is especially helpful after a forrest fire, so again, that is why these machines work so well in rapidly getting rid of smoke damage even in wood in a home. It is beautiful in its simplicity.



Now, let's deal with the toxicity of ozone...and asthma sufferers (I have asthma and I love what the air purifiers do in my home.) Would you agree that water is good for us? What if we were in the middle of the ocean and couldn't swim? Sometimes in some situations too much of a good thing is not so good! But it does not make the actual item the bad guy...it is how one uses it. Anti-biotics are good for us, but getting too much has now created the very thing we were trying to stop. I am sure you can think of many such situations...fire is good, too much and used wrongly and it can mame and kill, etc.



When one goes hiking in the mountains, often it is said that the "mountain-fresh air" is just great. There is more ozone there. Even at its highest setting, less ozone is created in these machines than what has been determined to be an irritant. It is only a matter of enclosure. When I use my purifier on the highest output of ozone to "sanitize" a room or my bedding, I shut the door and let it do its thing. When I open the door, I can smell a lot of ozone. All one has to do, is then turn the purifier down or off, and open the door a few minutes! It dissapates almost immediately. We often have people enter our home and remark at how fresh it smells (and I have three cats.)



But...there are a few (very few in our experience) who have not liked the way our home smells...my daughter, for one. She just does not like it. She says it smells like bleach or dirty socks! So, we turn the purifier down. For us, we are so used to it, we do not even smell it anymore unless we have been gone for awhile...and then we only smell it a few seconds upon entering our home. (And that is not because our sense of smell is being destroyed! It is a natural thing that one gets used to ones own smells if one is around them long enough...hence, we often get offended by another or another one's environmental odors while they are not...much, much evidence and examples can be used here...like I said, we smell it again if we have not been around it for while.)



Now as to mold and how the ozone works on it. The unstable atom of the O3 breaks off as it is attracted to the moisture (H20) in the mold. It attaches itself to the H2O making it H2O2. And guess what H2O2 is? It is hydrogen peroxide, and that kills mold! Another beautiful creation in nature for our benefit...and yet, when man discovers these things, we then can harness the discoveries to make them work for us in many, many other ways. Hence, a wonderful air purifier.



There is certainly not time, nor space, nor most likely interest to cover these subjects in their scientific entirety, but at least this general overview can address some of the inaccurate rumors touted today. The bottom line is that anything that can be good for us, if abused, misued, etc, can also be not so good. It is not good or bad in itself, it is how it is utilized.

 "Ozone generator" 2007-06-18
By Pascal Meunier
Ozone increases the risk of premature death. See the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies 2006 report. Ozone also deadens the sense of smell. The reduction of odors is partly due to this masking effect, and not to the removal of odor-causing chemicals. Claims of dust removal or breakdown with "ions" are greatly exaggerated. At best the dust settles on your furniture, and is released back in the air when you sit on it or disturb it.

 "Unit works well, but maintenance and parts a drag" 2007-03-06
By Carlsbad, CA
The unit works well eliminating dust and odor. Most of my friends who have this machine have the same complaint that I do - Maintenance and new parts. They tell you that you never need to buy another filter. This is true, but the lamp ($17) always needs replacing (this is the 3rd one in 18 months) and friends of mine have complained that they have needed to replace the plate many times. Since you cannot buy parts at your local store, you need to get them online and wait while your machine is out of commission. You need to clean the machine at least once a month. It is not like other machines that just snap open. You need to unscrew the back panel, front panel and inside panel. It is amazing how dusty the inside gets! The filters are easy to wash down. Like anything else, when it is working it is great.

 "Like A Breath of Fresh Air" 2007-01-29
By
The Fresh Air is an amazing product. Instead of the air having to come to the air purifier, the purifier's ions go to the odors, mold, and mildew. It kills the germs and smells, leaving your house smelling like a previous rain. You will love the product.

 "Great dust control and air purification but some "gotchas"" 2006-07-15
By Joanna Daneman (Middletown, DE USA)
We live in a dusty place--agriculture nearby, windy conditions and a relatively dry climate mean constant dust. Plus we are in an area of high air pollution with coal-fired power plants. I find lots of dust in the house, and I know it makes me uncomfortable. We purchased the EcoQuest Fresh Air Purifier during a home show, and I find it lives up to its promises of cleaner air, though there is certainly a downside to using it (more about later.)



How it works

Some air purifiers work by filtering the air--they bring IN the air with a fan and blow it across a filter or precipitator to remove the dust. But the EcoQuest is different; it bombards the air with ions that make the dust fall down and break apart. While this sounds like science fiction, it is a well-known method of precipitating particles in many applications. Therefore, one EcoQuest works on a large area--in our case we use one for the main part of the house which is open plan and find it controls dust in the great room, the upstairs hallway and kitchen. (maybe a 1700 sq ft area.) When we need dust control in the bedrooms, we just move it in there. Normally, ours sits on the top of the stairs where it can reach the great room, hallways and kitchen.



This is the major advantage of the EcoQuest--since it doesn't rely on bringing air into it, you can position it to cover a large part of a house.



Appearance and Operation

The Ecoquest Fresh Air Purifier is a squarish box, black in front and with faux rosewood plastic on the side. I guess it is about as unobtrusive as you can get, not pretty but not ugly either. It is the size of four or five phone books standing on end. There is a front panel with lcd readout and press-membrane style controls.



The unit has an ultraviolet light that generates ozone and then inside, there is a plate of ceramic covered with a metal screen. This is the ion generator.



The fan has several speeds, from one to five, five being the loudest and fastest.



The UV lamp in our unit, with fairly constant use, has been in service for two years and has not shown any signs of burning out. So far, so good.





You can choose settings based on the size of the area you wish to clean (small bedroom, car interior, large open room). We live in a pretty large open area, so we usually leave the unit on the 1750 sq ft setting.



You can choose how long to leave on the unit from 2,4, to 6 hours continuous operation, on high. This setting is for cleaning the house while you are gone. We choose to use this on days when the dust is getting to us, and we leave the house.



When we come home we notice:

1. The dust on the furniture is smaller in texture, and the carpets feel soft. The claim that the dust is broken down seems to be true.



2. We notice the lightning-struck smell of ozone. Some people find ozone a pleasant, fresh smell, but in large amounts, it is an irritant to me, and more than a little will give me a royal headache and makes me cough.



The Down Side

So, now, to the down side of the EcoQuest. The UV light generates ozone, and the ionizer plate apparently does as well. Ozone for many people, especially asthma suffers, is quite irritating. It's actually a toxic gas in large amounts. So one has to go cautiously with the EcoQuest and air out the house. Ozone is used by fire remediation to purify air after a disaster, and also to remove stubborn odors. It's a valid technique to purify air, as long as you remove the ozone afterwards. On its own, ozone is actually a pollutant. But it is a reactive type of molecule and breaks down, so getting rid of it is not difficult.



Maintenance

Monthly maintenance is required if you use the EcoQuest regularly or if the air is dirty. If you forget, a light goes on, indicating it's time to clean the ion generating plate. There is a ceramic plate inside you remove by unscrewing a back plate Then you vacuum off the plate and dust out the inside carefully. This takes us about 15 minutes.



Parts to replace would include the ceramic plate and the UV lamp. So far, in two years of constant use, we have not had to replace anything.



Summary

The EcoQuest lives up to its claim of reducing dust by breaking it down and by generating air-freshening ozone. However, too much ozone is a pollutant in itself. Therefore, you have to use it carefully and be mindful that if you cannot tolerate ozone, this may not be the purifier for you. As long as we don't crank up the ozone, we are quite happy with the unit. We have enjoyed good operating life with little maintenance so far.

 "Review of IonicPro Turbo Air Purifier" 2009-05-02
By C. Shannon
The ionicpro seemed to clean the air pretty well. The problems with the unit are that mine only lasted 17 months and then died, and the limited warranty is only for 1 year. Also, it was noisey while running at time, so you cannot sleep with it in the same room. For the $179 I paid, I would have thought it would last longer than 17 months. That's my biggest complaint.

 "Impressed" 2009-04-20
By Happy Mom
I must say I was a little skeptical before purchasing this item. I've battled with allergies ever since I can remember. I didn't think there was a product around that could help me. My allergist told me that I was practically allergic to the environment. So I figured trying this product couldn't hurt. I'm impressed. Since I've been using the large size ionic pro, my allergy attacks have reduced tremendously. I notice that when I went into another room where I did not have the ionic pro, my allergies began to act up (sneezing, watery eyes, congestion,etc). I do see a positive difference in my condition while I have been using this product. I've had it for approx. 2 months and I like it.

 "Extremely noisy, lots of work to clean, possibly dangerous!" 2009-02-21
By thevoiceofreason12345 (USA)
I've had 2 of these for a few years. I've tried to make the best of them since they were so expensive. I've also bought new blades periodically.



After a few months, the unit will make an extremely loud noise even after cleaning the blades. Buying new blades doesn't help. The screeching sounds is sometimes intermittent and sometimes constant. The only option is to use it in a room that you aren't in.



I've tried vacuuming and cleaning the actual tower on the inside and blowing air inside it. It seems to help sometimes. I think that particles must get trapped inside, never release and cause the screeching.



I didn't know this at the time, but have since learned about the dangerous ozone emittence of the product. And am now thinking that could be the cause of some of my health problems that I didn't have before?



I'm not only disappointed with this product, I think it should be recalled and customers should be given refunds.

 "Why do I have to give this one star?" 2009-01-03
By usaf_drew (Middle GA)
Instead of none. Cause that's what I'd rather give it. I just bought one of these at Dillards on sale for $35. Took it home, plugged it in and let it run for 5 hours in a bedroom with closed door. I come in later to a very clean-like smell which I find out is the ozone it produces. I must admit the ozone is a nice smell, but as they say, most things you like are bad for you. This is by far no exception to that saying. Reading reviews on this after-the-fact shows that ozone can be hazardous to your health and is actually in no way beneficial. Also, that night I was awoken to a screaching sound lasting about 5 seconds and the super bright blue LED went out. I was like 'oh great the thing just died and I haven't even used it a full day'. Well, the unit still worked, just the LED for High setting burned out. I have read other reviews on here that say the same happened. My assumption is that the LEDs aren't supposed to be that bright and that there is a resistor of wrong value in the circuit causing the LEDs to receive too much voltage. Not very reassuring as to the quality of the unit. So that's when I start researching this thing and find out it's better as a paperweight cause it offers no cleaning as determined by Consumer Reports and other sources. almost half the reviews on here say their unit just wont work anymore. Then I see that CS is a joke.



Basically, do NOT get this thing even if it is offered for free! It will not only be bad for your health, but you'll be constantly cleaning an air purifier that doesn't purify anything yet adds to your power bill.



Also, something to note: Sharper Image, the company that makes the similar Ionic Breeze units, LOST in a lawsuit against Consumer Reports for claims that their units are useless and unhealthy. What does that tell you? They then had to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy.



I will be promptly returning this to Dillards tomorrow.

 "Better than Sharper Image" 2008-11-07
By Justin R. Mattern (CT)
This product produces Ozone. Get over it. (Ozone is O3 and makes a smell like after a thunderstorm) It is not super good for you, that being said, as long as you only have like 1 of these per floor, should be no problem.



This collects particles from the air very well, the blades are just BLACK after a week or two and the cleaning method of this is MUCH better than my 2 sharper image ones.



I will probably pick up another one of these pretty soon. I have had my first one for 3 years. I think there is a newer model of this too now. I imagine it also works very well.

HEPA air filters are made from very tiny glass fibers that are made into a tightly woven paper. This creates a filter consisting of a multitude of very small sieves that can capture extremely small particles, including some biological agents. Once trapped, contaminates and particles are not able to flow back into circulation, due to the highly absorbent pores of the HEPA air filter. HEPA air filters are largely considered the most effective type of air filter for solid particles, such as dust and other allergens. HEPA air filters remove 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns in size, almost 300 times smaller than the width of a human hair. The Atomic Energy Commission developed HEPA air filters during the Second World War. They were originally designed to remove radioactive dust from their plants. The U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security recommends HEPA air filters. HEPA air filters are effective for solid and liquid particles, but not effective for gaseous particles. The XJ-3000C HEPA & ionic air purifier incorporates other technologies that are effective against gaseous particles, such as ionization and activated carbon filtration.

 "It is a lemon" 2009-04-10
By OKCPA (Tulsa, OK)
I have 7 ionic air purifiers. Three are ionic pro where the collection blades are top loaded. They have been working daily like a gem for over a year. The frequency of cleaning depends on the amount of dust and allergens in the air. Our house is fairly clean - no smokers, etc. and I clean every 2-4 weeks. I also have two of the Ionic pro turbo which are front loading and they have been lemons since the beginning. They continuouly turn themselves off. If they have been sitting off for a few weeks, they will run about 24 hours when first turned on, then with each subsequent turn on, they run shorter and shorter periods of time..... down to just minutes at a time. They are Junk. My other two are top loading Ionic Breeze by Sharper Image and they are great also..... much like the top loading Ionic Pro.

 "Not overly impressed with this" 2009-02-22
By Miranda
This does work, but takes A LOT of work to keep it going. I actually have to clean my blades every 2 days, sometimes even more. We have 2 dogs, one of which sheds a lot. I also burn candles quite often and it seems when I do, this needs cleaning even more often. It makes a terrible crackling noise when it's collecting dust and sometimes shuts off after running for only a few hours. It seemed to run good for the first few months that we owned it. We've had it for about a year now and it still works at pulling any dog smell or cooking odors out of the air...when it stays on. I love when it actually runs all night like it's supposed to and I wake up to my house smelling like fresh air in the morning. Especially in the winter time when the windows are always closed up. But like I said, sometimes it shuts itself off and that seems to happen quite often. Anyways, I think we could have found a better air purifier. This one attracted me because of not having to buy filters, but I'm not so sure it was worth it. All the work to keep it running is a pain in the [.............]!

Hi;



Bought this item "Ionic Breeze". No problem with set up, just pull it out of the box.



It really does make the air fresher. And, you can feel a cold breeze from the unit when it is on.



Clean up is simple enough. Wipe the blades. Mine did start to rust with slightest bit of moister. So, clean it often.



Good Luck

This ozone-free filter with an attactive gray casing combines the top five technologies into one unit: air ionizer for particles, HEPA air filter for dust and allergens, germicidal UV light for micro-organisms, activated carbon filter for chemicals, smoke and odors, and an anti-bacterial pre-filter for larger particles. Tests show that true HEPA filters (recommended by the Dept. of Homeland Security) are more effective than any other type of air filter at capturing dust, pollen, ragweed, dust mites, mold spores and other allergens. Germicidal UV light air purification, which destroys micro-ogranisms, is recommended by the U.S. Centers of Disease Control (CDC). Furthermore, according to Penn State Dept. of Aerobiological researchers, carbon filters serve to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemicals that other filters cannot. The Multi-Tech has multiple technologies to remove cigarette smoke and other odors, including the activated carbon filter and ionizer. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found negative ion air purification (ionizers) to be 99% effective at removing airborne dust & particles. Under normal circumstances, Multi-Tech replacement costs will run just $25 to $50 per year (for replacement filters and UV lamp each year). The Multi-Tech will only add a few dollars or so per month to your power bill. Its powerful fan increases air-cleaning efficiency by effectively moving the air. Even with the fan setting on high, the Multi-Tech is very quiet. The Multi-Tech air purifier has been awarded ETL safety certification and is maitenance free.

By Manuel Gonzalez (College Station, TX)
We keep this air purifier close to our kitchen so that the smells from cooking are filtered and our home keeps a fresh air. It simply does not work under these conditions. Maybe it is good to filter other kind of odors, but not this particular one.

 "Excellent Product and Company !" 2009-03-10
By Mark E. Stephen (Austin, Tx United States)
I bought my first 3000 series purifier 3 years ago and it has ran 24/7 365 with no problems and excellent results. There is myself who is a smoker and 3 dogs in a 500 sq.ft apt. with no odors at all !! Need I say more ?

 "I adore my air purifier -- most sensible thing I've ever bought!" 2009-02-12
By Marie-Claude (États-Unis)
I started to run this air purifier exactly 52 hours ago, and it has already changed my quality of life.



I have never owned an air purifier before. I have been literally choking on the air in my own apartment during the several months that I have been living here, and I had extremely unrealistic expectations about an air purifier: I imagined posting something like, "Wow! I could feel the difference after two hours!" Well, OK, it took more than two hours! But it happened.



I started it on low fan with the sanitizer disabled. Then I went to medium fan, then I added the sanitizer on low, then I put the fan on high and the sanitizer on medium. I awoke this morning no longer choking on the air and no longer confronted with the aggressive dusty odor with which I had come to associate my apartment. I left it today with the fan on high and the sanitizer on medium and returned tonight to a completely different atmosphere.



I am not afraid of the ozone produced by the sanitizer but if you are you can choose to run it only once in a while or never.



My only concern is that, unlike some other air purifiers, this one does not have a display light that indicates when the HEPA filter is dirty (and this HEPA filter is permanent if you have a hand vac although you can also choose to buy a replacement filter [also readily available through amazon]). Since this is my first air purifier, a dummy light would have been great. But I went for the price. I guess I'll know when the filter needs vacuuming or changing when I sense that the air is once again heavy with particles.



But no negatives. I love this thing. I want to hug it.

 "Best Air Purifier Ever" 2009-01-22
By Craig MAX
I now own three of these and will be adding a 4th for my office. We run one 24/7/365 in the basement of our turn-of-the-century house, and it does wonders in eliminating any sense of mold or mustiness.

 "Not bad, not great" 2009-02-24
By jyw (Chicago, IL USA)
I use this in a small home office, which is about 9x10. It definitely works. Does a decent job on cigarette smoke. The filters are easy to find. It is not very loud, even on the highest setting. But, I wish it were more powerful.

 "Great for small office" 2008-12-24
By M. Mauldin (Charlotte, NC)
I use mine in a 10x12 office and enjoy the device. It has several speeds and can run very quietly when needed. Excellent clean air feel and gets rid of odors efficiently.

I'm not a kid, you just can't write a review unless your a member or a kid. I didn't want to becaome a member, but wanted to leave a review. With that said... I just replaced one of my old Holmes HAP240 (I own 5) with the newer and more modern looking HAP2400. Holmes is GREAT because not only the products are nice looking and priced right, many of Holmes models use the same filter. By doing this you do not have to order filters direct from the company because often your local WalMart will carry a replacement filter. I also use Swifter cloths (or Walmart brand Swifter Dust BOSS) in front a new filter to save $MONEY$ :o) Been doing it for years now!

 "I was breathing what?!" 2006-03-18

Papers & books breakdown. Ask any bookstore in the mall. Next, let's talk about the (2) types of dirt...outside & people. Then, there's all the chemi-kills your house is built out of, the mold, and the chemicals it takes to clean it. The Environmental Protection Agency says inside pollution is 2 to 5 times worse than outside. Monitors are dust collectors. PC's suck in dust all day. Electronics act like a huge magnet pulling in yuck from all sides of the room, and then you sit your face by it for hours at a time...dust is a problem.



So, you can spend half a grand and get some ozone poisoning if you like, to kill off everything in the house. Just take out a loan and buy a Sharper Image stick cleaner. They work. The reason they don't use a fan is because the ions push the air around.



However, for the rest of us...Holmes has a good solution. HEPA filtration was like nuclear submarine quality about a decade ago. No one had this because we couldn't afford it. Today, these little units start at just under thirty bucks. I got the HAP2400, and somehow filled the pre-filter face in less than 15 days. But, I don't know how...my room was clean! I'm reading smoke, pet, molds, but I don't have these problems. That's when I learned about the magnets in the computers, and the normal level of junk in the air. I think I read that 90% of your time is spent at home. If you saw the stuff I pulled down, why wouldn't you get one of these? I feel like I just vacuumed the air. Replacement filers only run about ten bucks, and they last 3-4 months.



Negative side:

- I read that small particles out the back of the unit don't wash off easy if you don't replace the filter on a normal basis.

- I'm not big on negative ions because I don't know enough about them.



(I'm going to see if I get rid of my paper piles, if that helps...dust is N-Asty!)

 "Great Cooler!" 2009-06-11
By Sandy (California)
I was initially concerned about the humidity level because I needed it in my office with my computers and papers. I really did not have to worry-This cooler is great!! I am seriously thinking about buying another one for my house!!

 "No cooling " 2007-08-13
By Singer (Philadelphia)
I use it in a room of about 1500 sq ft. I have a central air conditioner which was not enough for my bedroom. So I was trying to get a couple degrees lower and run it at night. The ice packs (3) were useless. No cooling at all. Just another fan.

 "works great" 2007-07-12
By J. Lee (CA)
This is a great little cooler for a room where a portable air conditioner is impossible (no way to vent)...It noticeably makes the room cooler and is quiet (Lisa's must have been defective). Though I have to admit there doesn't appear an easy way to empty the water, filling it is pretty easy. Comes with a remote and has several different settings. Overall a great item!

 "Works well, but watch the hose!" 2007-05-19
By M. Byington (Newbury Park, CA United States)
I'm giving this 3 stars because of the water stain on my carpet!



The cooler works well the few times we've used it. It doesn't seem to need super-low humidity.



When we received the unit, we read the instructions thoroughly. We added water & we turned it on. We were pleased at the cool air it generated.



About 1/2 hour later, we checked the unit & the water was almost empty. It turns out that there is a hose that circulates the water back into the water tray. That hose rests (on the right side of the unit) on a flat tray with a small hole in it, and it was supposed to drip back into the water reservoir. However the water flies out of that hose so quickly it overwhelms the flat tray & then leaks out of the bottom of the unit... and onto the carpet!



Once we readjusted the hose so that the water actually went back into the water reservoir, it seems to work fine & no more leaks.

The Fujitronic Cooler came in perfect shape and operates great. The service was quick and responsive, I would definitely buy from these people again!
