Air Purifier Filter
What to Consider When Buying an Air Purifier
Are you a smoker? What about a pet owner? If so, there is a good chance that the air inside your home isn’t as healthy as it could or should be. That is why you may want to think about purchasing an air purifier. Air purifiers are electronic machines that work to cleanup the air. They do this by trapping, and often eliminating, harmful bacteria and air particles. In fact, you don’t even have to be a pet owner or a smoker to benefit from the use of an air purifier; anyone can. For that reason, there is a good chance that you may be interested in purchasing an air purifier for your home.

Honeywell 38002 Enviracare Universal Replacement Pre-FilterReviewsI had been purchasing this item in stores but have been having trouble finding them recently. Plus, Amazon's prices are almost half of what I had been paying. I received the actual Honeywell enviracaire brand pre-filter no. 38002 (not an off-brand substitute). Thanks Amazon! ....what's to review? yeah, it's a pre-filter. Nothing that's really performance related to talk about here, so I'll just say they are easy to fit, easy to put on, take off, and if you buy enough of them to get free shipping from amazon, they're a pretty good deal! If I knew the filter replacements were going to be this crappy, I'd never have purchased the 17000. The filter, to work right, has to be doubled. That effectively doubles the price of the filters. The filters themselves look moth eaten, weak and flimsy, cheap and really laughable. Good old american product made by ebaneezer to save his buck and take ours. This filter(from honeywell) still shed lots of carbon (black) particulate, especially when you have to cut to trim to size. These are very fine dust particles. Some of which i am sure clogged the HEPA. I dont believed previous report that said the Honeywell brand of pre-filter dont shed. Simple to replace original filter, competitive price to other retailers. Air purifier has made a huge difference in allergy suffering! Average Rating:  |

Honeywell HHT-011 Compact Air Purifier with Permanent HEPA FilterReviewsWhen I leave this on I notice a noticeable reduction of visible dust in my room but it doesn't entirely get rid of it all. But hey, at this price point, it works... Also, I didn't really notice any reduction of allergies, it seems to only get rid of the dust in my room. The filter seems to do a good job. It is not nearly as quiet as some reviewers mention, the sound is quite audible at night, but not irritatingly so. The ionizer switch lights up just as much as the built-in "night light." Ionizers are known to create ozone (see Consumer Reports.) The manual says not to use the ionizer if you suffer from asthma. Put all these together and it sounds like the ionizer is not completely safe. I recommend not using the ionizer when the room is occupied, or only for short periods of time. If it has been on for an extended period of time, let fresh air into the room before spending some time in the room. This small air cleaner is best for very small areas. It sits atop my cat's litter box located in the bathroom and does an adequate job of controlling litter box odors between changes. It can also be mounted on a wall if you don't have a place for it to sit. Replacement filters are relatively expensive at $42.00. It's fairly quiet on low and has strong airflow. I think it's a too noisy and too small for the average bedroom. Permanent filter doesn't really mean permanent however. Permanent filters do become clogged over time and simply must be replaced. It's a decent little unit for very small areas.......recommended!!!! Looks cute. Loud. and my place needs cleaning... nothing in the filter after 2 weeks of running. Blah! this thing is pretty quiet, on high setting it just kinda fades into the background and it does it's job. awesome deal for the price. Average Rating: |

Helps Remove/ Captures Up to 99% of Airborne/ Microscopic Particles Such as*: Tobacco smokePet danderMold sporesDust Pollen* (from the air that passes through the filter). Overall particle reduction depends on many factors including the amount of air processed, the pollutant type, and the pollutant's introduction rate into the environment... |

Hamilton Beach 04383 True Air Allergen-Reducing Air CleanerReviewsI received this very quickly. Some people said it was loud and they must have really sensitive ears. I can't hear crap when it is on low, the only time I hear it is if it is on high and it is just a relaxing, low sound like a fan. If you really want one for a room and don't have a lot of money this thing is great. People who gave it bad reviews don't know how to use it correctly and have pussy ears. I got this in the midst of the ragweed season and have it on most of the time. It definitely helps banish the allergens since I am allergic to ragweed, mold and dust, among other things. It is super quiet on the low "Whisperclean" setting and simply soft quiet white noise on higher settings. There's even a "Quickclean" setting for more severe times: and this is the high speed. There is no ionizer, but I have no problem in not having one. The best part is that one does not need to buy filters. Just vacuum the permanent filter every 3-6 months. It can be set upright as a tower as well as horizontally and it has four adhesive feet with soft material on the outside that can be put on the unit for the horizontal position so it won't scratch furniture. There is a base for the "tower" position that can be easily removed if you place it horizontally. Very ergonomic and an excellent investment. They were really thinking when they designed this. I wanted this for my bedroom. It was even more quiet than I expected. I've bought a few air cleaners over the past couple years and this one is the most quiet. On whisper setting I could barely hear it at all. It doesn't get much louder on medium setting. I like that I don't have to buy filters and can just use the vacuum when it's time to clean the filter. So far it works as advertised and I am happy with it. I am purchasing a second one for my son's room. I ordered this air cleaner for my room in Iraq. It's very dusty here and I thought maybe it would help. 18 days after ordering I recieved an E-mail informing me that the order was canceled because of "lack of availability from the supplier". When I ordered the item, "IN STOCK" was prominently displayed on each page as I navigated through ordering. This is the second time I've had trouble getting an item. If you are ordering air products (cleaners, allergen control, etc...) I recommend some of the other sites. I've used amazon in the past and have had no issues with them until now. They seem to have little control over these products. I could have ordered elsewhere 18 days ago. good looking air purifier and seems to be working fine. the permanent air filter is a major plus. others might consider it loud, but i can't sleep without it on now.

Eva-dry EDV-E-500 Renewable Wireless Mini DehumidiferReviewsKeeps the safe nice and dry never a problem with dampness just recharge them by plugging them in when the crystal balls go clear wait for them to be blue again about 24 hours is what I leave them for and they are ready to go back to work. One piece of advice when you plug them in if you have multiple units keep them apart. They do get hot and if they are close together there combined heat will melt there plastic housings. I learned this the hard way. I don't blame the product for this as I knew they get hot to purge the moisture in the crystals and I was careless. It is a great product for any kind of safe large or small. I live in a 400 sq. ft. cottage. thought this would be perfect. Nope. The description says it doesn't need recharging for 60 days, but I end up having to plug it in every week or so. Probably best for walk-in closet sized rooms. After about a week, the scented insert was scented-no-more. The instructions for the E-500 are vague, but I eventually figured out how to use the hook through the power prongs. One thing that is really confusing, and I think the cause of some 1 star reviews is the status window. The instructions say when the beads are blue, they are ready to absorb moisture, and when they are pink, they are at full capacity and need recharging. The status window where you view the beads is dark blue, and if you don't look closely, the beads will always look blue. If you can tell your eyes to ignore the blue background, you can see the true color of the beads. I think mine were pink for weeks before I discovered they were pink. Other than those two issues, this is a good product and works well. Like other reviewers have noted, you cannot just plug this into a wall outlet to recharge it. You need to plug it into a power strip so the plug goes downward into the outlet and the power strip can support the weight of the E500. It should recharge in a place where it can release the absorbed moisture. I recharge mine in the garage. I bought this to fit into a walk in closet and then in a safe. The walk in closet was a little to big for this little guy although it did work just not enough. it's perfect for the safe. Plugging it in is easy. After about half a day it is not hydrated and I can put it back to do its job. I'm actually going to buy 2 for the walk in closet. It's easy to read and easy to discharge. I bought two of this items to place in my bathroom and garage. They do not seem working at all :( Average Rating: |

Vicks Personal Steam InhalerReviewsAfter using it the first time, tiny blood vessels appeared on my cheeks. Looks like it will be permanent damage. Afterwards, I've used it with the face a few inches away from the plastic and it didn't produce any effects on my nasal congestion (from allergies). I had better results with the Neti pot. This is a great little steamer. I suffer from chronic sinus headaches, and often, steam is the only thing that will get rid of them. You do have to be careful not to put your face on the mask, as the steam is too hot. But overall, great product. Small, and gets the job done! I bought this inhaler during spring allergy season. I am a singer and had a performance in June. My allergies were bad, and I was coughing, had lots of phlegm, and the coughing was irritating my throat. This inhaler was very easy to use, and was extremely helpful in helping me expectorate. It is great and inexpensive! STEAMS UP QUICKLY....RELEAVES CONGESTION....BREATHE BETTER....CLEAR CONVERSATION....QUICK DELIVERY FROM AMAZON AND MY BEST PRICE The steam generation is a bit weak. I would've preferred at least the option of generating more steam. Average Rating: |

For cold, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, and allergy sufferers, this personal steam inhaler restores sufficient moisture to the lungs and respiratory tract. The patented plastic hood is contoured to cradle the face comfortably and directs warm moist air right into the nose and throat to temporarily relieve nasal, sinus, and chest congestion... |

WBM 7-Inch Tall Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt LampReviewsThe lamp I received was white w/ black filaments running through the white. The unit flickers off and on when disturbed. I replaced the enclosed bulb with a GE 25 watt chandelier, and made sure it was seated, and still get the flicker if the lamp is touched. I have two other salt lamps that came in the colors promised, one yellow, one pink/orange, but they came from other distributors. The primary reason I give this item such a low rating is obviously that the color was not as described, and the wiring seems faulty. Because I am using it only as a night light I don't have a major complaint about the problems, but if I had purchased it as a display piece I would have sent it back. I have ordeded this item and did not have tooo much hope on this product.When i received the produt i felt soo happy.The packaging was enough to protect the lamp form mishandelling it.The light was enough to fill my bed room during nights.The colour was soo relaxing and soothing.Totally i was happy for the price i got it and i feel it is totally worth buying.My husband was so excited seeing the lamp in our bed room. Ordered two of these, and based on reviews, was ready for problems, but lo and behold they arrived in perfect condition. I love them - they did exactly what I wanted in the space I had for them. Am going to order one more. I ordered 3 of these on 7/25/2010 and was very pleased with both the packaging and the quality of the lamps themselves. The three salt crystals varied in color from a lighter white to a nice apricot to a deep red, this is to be expected with a a natural products. The crystals were all large and intact - I experienced none of the shipping damage noted by others. I was very pleased with the price I paid for the lamps and have given them as gifts. received two salt lamps from amazon today. can't decide which one to keep and which to give as a gift. both were well wrapped and beautiful. after ordering, i saw one in a local store, it was rough and ugly. i was worried.i am so surprised and delighted today, they are gorgeous!

If you are like most other Americans, when it comes to purchasing an air purifier, you may make the decision to purchase one and then go right out and buy one. Although it is nice to get a product when you want it, often right away, there are disadvantages to doing so. Essentially, you may be purchasing a product that is poor in quality. Without the proper amount of research, you will never know.
As mentioned above, it is important that you examine the quality of an air purifier before purchasing it. You can easily do this online. A large number of online websites allow internet users to comment, rate, or write reviews on a product that they have purchased. These products also include air purifiers. If you know of anyone who uses an air purifier in their home, you may also want to think about asking them for suggestions. Feedback from those who own the same product is the best way to learn about the quality of it.
In addition to the quality of the product, it is also important that you examine the size of the air purifier you are interested in buying. When it comes to the size of an air purifier, you do not necessarily need to focus on the size of the actual machine, but you should focus on the size of the space that it is designed for. With cheaper, low-cost air purifiers, you will find that they only tend to treat the air in small rooms. These rooms commonly have a square footage of about 250-350 feet. If you are looking to treat the air inside a larger room, you may need to spend more money on a larger air purifier.
It is also important to consider the cost of an air purifier. Many individuals, regrettably, make a mistake when doing this. That mistake is believing that the purchase price is the only cost that they need to worry about. While there are some air purifiers that are filter-less, not all are. Many of these air purifiers, the ones that require filters, need to have their filters changed every so often. This can be as little as once every couple of years or as much as a couple of months. It is important that you keep the cost of replacement parts, including filters, in mind. When doing this, you may find that an otherwise low-cost air purifier turns into one that is too expensive for you to afford.
Since, in many cases, air purifiers are considered expensive, you are advised to look for air purifiers that come with warranties. In most cases, you will find that many air purifiers have a manufacturer’s warranty. That warranty typically tends to last about a year. If you are spending more than $400 on an air purifier, you may want to think about getting an extended warranty. If you purchase your next air purifier from a retail store, you may need to pay for the warranty. Despite possibly having to pay for an extended warranty, you will find that it is worth the cost. Should anything happen to your expensive air purifier, a warranty would, in most cases, prevent you from being out of luck.
The above mentioned points are just a few of the many that you need to take into consideration, when buying an air purifier. As previously mentioned, an air purifier can be a large purchase. That is why you are advised to fully research and examine all aspects of that purchase before making a final decision. It is the only way to make sure that you are not wasting your money.
