Individual Room Air Purifiers

If you were to perform a standard internet search for air purifiers, you would likely return a number of different results. Those results would likely include a number of different air purifiers that are currently available for sale. While all of these air purifiers may vary, in one way or another, many have something in common. That tends to be the amount of space which the air purifier can successfully clean.
Online, you can find a wide variety of different air purifiers, as mentioned above. While some of these air purifiers are designed for the whole house, you will find that most are not. Instead, most air purifiers are designed only to handle a small, but reasonable about of space. It is not uncommon to find air purifiers that can work in rooms with 200 square feet, 250 square feet, 300 square feet, or even 350 square feet. It is possible to find air purifiers that work in spaces larger or smaller than the above mentioned square footages, but they tend to be the norm.

WBM 8-Inch Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt Lamp with Bulb and Cord WBM 8-Inch Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt Lamp with Bulb and Cord

Reviews

I thought the lamp was pretty cool. It's different and it looks interesting. Great piece for any room. It has a nice glow to it. On a more disgusting note, my whole family licked it. It tasted like salt. :)

I must admit to thinking the pictures were retouched. However, when I plugged it in I was pleasantly surprised to find that the lamp is even prettier than shown. Since it is chunk of rock salt, irregularly shaped, some areas are thicker than others resulting in deeper oranges. The glow is quite lovely and reminds me of lava. When off, it is salmon pink with shades of white to dark-pink. My lamp is about 11" tall and about 18" around. It is not crumbly or flaky. The wooden base is sturdy and doesn't look cheap. I plan to purchase more salt lamps for my bedroom and study because they are so pretty. At this price, and with free shipping, it is quite a bargain.

I moved into my new apartment and had the worst allergies. I was taking medicine but I was still waking up every morning with a lot of mucous in my sinuses/throat/everywhere. So a friend told me about her salt crystal lamp and how it had helped her so I went ahead and bought this. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now and no more allergies! This think is amazing! I was skeptical at first especially since it's electric but even after a couple days of use I noticed a huge improvement.

The lamp I got is beautiful, with an aromatic glow. I plugged it in about three minutes ago and my room already has a more relaxed feel and mood. I recommend this high-quality product to anyone who likes nature.

This is a really nice and original lamp, creates a beautiful atmosphere with his soft redish light. It's very well done and natural. (so natural that it cries salty tears when it's on long time, nothing to worry about, it's caracteristique of the product and it won't spoil your furniture)

This humidifier is actually being used at a local animal shelter in one of their isolation rooms. The cats in that room are all sick. It helps them breath better & it seems they are getting better just a little faster.

This is an excellent humidifier. It has one added advantage - two smaller than usual reservoirs make it easier to refill for those of us who are getting more seasoned - older that is.

The product is as described. It puts out quite a bit of steam which I need living in Las Vegas because it is so dry here. It helps my breathing and gives my skin moisture. It's a great product. I love the two tanks and the ease of use.

Last month I purchased another unit that ran out of water in the middle of the night. This one does NOT have that problem. Even on the highest setting it's running about a day and a half! Beautiful. The 'on' light is way too bright but a piece of black tape fixed that. You can't see any light from the germ light (that's good). It does it's germ killing on the water before it hits the hot plate. I'm not sure how needed this is considering it's generating steam but 'perhaps' (I don't really know) it may reduce the gunk amount in the cleanup. It came with 3 mineral pads that simply lay on a hot plate (use just 1 pad). Note they are the 'small' round pads. I see two sizes on Amazon. No other light comes from the unit. Gurgling isn't as bad as some other units I've tried but there is no way around a bit of gurgling. The TWO water side tanks can both be filled or just one. Lifting one tank off the unit while the other is full causes NO problems, water doesn't gush out. It is big so check the size. The only 'cons' are the way too bright on light (easy fix, tape) and when empty the plastic tanks can easily fall while moving the unit. They don't 'lock' in place and are quite light when empty. I haven't tried a lower steam setting but there is a constantly variable control for steam (not just low and high). So far I love the unit and I let it run all night!

I could not understand why my electric bill was as high this winter as they were during last summer when I used my central A/C. When I unplugged the humidifier, my bill dropped right back in line. It costs about $40-$50 a month to run it here on Cape Cod.

Keeps 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 :(

After 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!

The steam generation is a bit weak. I would've preferred at least the option of generating more steam.

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...

I purchased this for my duaghter who is in ninth grade to help her with her asthma. You know how all the girls wear so much perfume and air freshners are sparyed everywhere. She wears it faithfully in school and out at friends house. Recently she went to a party where they had a fire burning int eh fireplace. Her comment was she never would have been able to breathe if she did not have it! It saved her from a severe astham attack! She also finds it helpful in the car when we get stuck behind exhaust!

I work in a smoky environment. I was never able to work more than three days in a row due to an asthmatic reaction to the smoke. The day I got this, I never had any problems due to smoke at work again. I can work as many days in a row as I want. Also, a side effect of its use that I have noticed is that I don't get sick anymore due to work. This purifier kills airborne viruses and and bacteria. I used to get sick a lot because my work has so many different people entering from around the world- but no more. It is also good for my allergies when I visit a friend's house with a cat. If I am having a sneazing or watery eye reaction, I'm cleared up soon after I turn this on. I use this religiously. It is one of my most favorite belongings.

I have chemical sensitivities, and this works fairly well. Some things get through, especially if they're pretty strong, but overall I'd highly recommend it. I would also highly recommend getting the rechargable batteries and charger to go with it - the batteries can be REALLY expensive. It can be worn around the neck, or clipped inside a shirt pocket (if the top of the pocket is left open), and is discreet, especially if inside a pocket.

This is our third personal air purifier by this company, we use two and one died. It works at least as well as the other two did. I use it on airplanes to reduce the risk of picking up the recirculating germs and I use it extensively in New Orleans where I lead workgroups every couple of months for rebuilding. In New Orleans I wear it in buildings with a residue of mold smell - and sleep with it clipped to my pillow. The device that died had a plug in option and inexpensive batteries. This one has an extremely expensive battery and no plug in options. It will be fine for plane trips - I just used it on a 12 hour trip to Africa - but I don't know if I could afford to run it most of the time, as I used to in New Orleans. CAUTION: flip it over your shoulder when drinking liquids so they don't accidently drip down into it and short it out.

Passing a smoker's coat hung in the hall or walking past an office where a smoker comes in from the street can end my workday. My headaches get so bad I sometimes have to call my wife to pick me up once I get a snootfull of a smoker. The Wein AS150mm is a literal lifesaver. I clip it to my tie or even put it into my shirt pocket with the magnetic clip and it is strong enough to keep me protected while I am indoors. It takes a pretty expensive photo battery to run but one lasts about 2 weeks if I run it all the time at work. I don't have any proof of it being a germ fighter but I feel much better about being on planes with people who sneeze. There isn't any hassle going through security. TSA has seen enough of these to recognize them. Once outdoors it just doesn't have enough zip to keep smoke from blowing from across the street, around the corner or even out of a car window 20 feet away. At $99 it is a bargain that keeps me safe from the smell of smoke and smokers.

I have had this filter on my desk for over a year now. I work in the mulching industry and dust is a HUGE issue for my allergies. I find it unobstructive, quiet and extremely efficient. I have to change the filter about every two months but I feel that is to be expected in my situation due to the very poor air quality. I choses this filter because of it's simple design. With dust, pollen, mold, etc in our office bldg (very old facility!) and no overall filtration system outside the air conditioning, this little filter really does the trick! In my situation, I felt the fewer moving parts the better - I knew it would be getting a serious workout! I leave this on 24/7 and am extrememly happy with the air quality in my office. I wish the filters were either less expensive or could be packaged in bulk qty at a discount...I do burn 'em up! But better a disposable filter than my lungs! Great job BlueAir! Thanks.

just got this for my bedroom, but it definitely does make a loud noise, i doubt i will be able to sleep with it on.. also, bigger than i thought and was sent the wrong color!

I have a problem with sneezing all day at work. Ever since I started using the Airpod (about an arms lenght from my face), my sneezing fits have subsided. CON: It is bigger than it should be I think. The filter area looks like a box of kleenex attached, looks cheap. It is very noisy. I am not sure but I think it generates HEAT? Which I hate! this office is stuffy enough now I flip on something to help me breathe but it makes it feel stuffy?

I see the price of this is dropping like a rock. I bought it a week ago and paid $45. It's now $37. Save your money. Go to your nearest "big box" store and buy the cheapest HEPA filter air cleaner they have (you can usually get them for about $20-25). It will be better than this. You have to move some air to make a HEPA filter work. And the fan on this unit is NOT powerful enough. This unit has an electrostatic ionizer, but unlike most of the other cheap units, you can't turn it off. That's not a feature, that's a bug. I bought this because it fits perfectly on the shelf by my bed. But there's this annoying bright blue LED light on the front of this that can't be shut off and it's so bright you can see it with your eyes closed. I had to put something in front of the light to sleep.

This is a surprisingly powerful filter. We weren't expecting much for the size and price. In fact, we meant to give it as a present. It's easy to carry, but you have to be careful with the filter itself, as it protrudes from the fan, and is made of cardboard. It crushes and tears easily. I brought it with me to a chain smoking household. In just a few hours, there was a noticeable difference in odor between the bedroom and the rest of the house. $17 per a piece of cardboard (the replacement filter) is a bit expensive, so I give this four stars.

Since individual room air purifiers only clean the air in a limited amount of space, you may be wondering whether or not they are worth the buy. Honestly, it all depends on how much of your home’s air you would like to have cleaned. If you have a room where smoking takes place or where you pets tend to reside, you may be able to make due with an individual room air purifier. However, if smoking takes place throughout your whole house or if your pets roam throughout your home, freely, you may want to think about purchasing a whole house air purifier.

As with all other products, individual room air purifiers come in a wide variety of different sizes, shapes, and styles. This also means that they will likely come in a wide variety of different prices. It is not uncommon to find individual room air purifiers that sell for as little as fifty dollars, but as high as one thousand dollars. Honestly, the cost of an individual room air purifier will all depend on the quality of the product. See, in most cases, you will find that the better performing air purifiers tend to cost the most money. Despite the increase in costs, you may find that they are actually a better value.

Before purchasing an individual room air purifier, you may want to measure the space inside that room. This will help to ensure that you purchase an air purifier that can effectively clean the air inside your room. Purchasing an air purifier with a maximum square footage that is smaller than the size of your room may make it so the air purifier cannot do its job, at least the correct way. When examining the square footage of the room, in which you would like the air purifier to be, it is also important that you think about whether or not a door is on that room. When using an air purifier, having the door to the room closed will often produce better results.

If you are interested in purchasing an individual room air purifier for your bedroom, the living room, your home office, or your child’s room, you should easily be able to find a reasonably priced make and model. You can find these air purifiers by visiting one of your local retail stores, as well as by shopping online.
