 Smells like you're standing on a mountian! May 28, 2008
By Book Junky
"Jess"
I bought one of these about a year and 1/2 ago b/c it was cheaper then Sharper Images but was doubtful it would work well or for very long b/c it was cheaper.
I placed it in my bedroom when I got home from work and let it work it's magic, SILENT magic...it is really quiet!, while I sat in the living room. About 45 minutes later I decided to go check and make sure everything was going as it should. I turned the corner and the smell of fresh cool air hit me. It was SO nice! The only way I could describe the air is to say is smelled like mountain top air with a water fall near by. That's how fresh and clean it smelled.
Now, I'm thinking, "OK, it smells good, but is it really working?" I push a button and pull out the filter, yes, it's THAT easy, and I can see little fuzzies of cat hair (I have two) and dust (I have a lot) clinging to the filter! WOW! It actually was cleaning the air!
I promptly went out and bought them for every room in my house and I couldn't be happier.
There is one thing it does that some my consider bad but I like it. When the metal, re-usable filter is dirty and can't hold anymore, the unit tends to make a rattling sound when you turn it on. Nothing loud but once you wipe off the filter, and it really is easy to clean, it doesn't make the noise anymore.
I will always have these, or this brand, in my house. I run all four of my every night when I go to bed and I've had them for about a year and 1/2 and and they are still going strong! I love them!!!

 So far, so good Jan 27, 2010
By smart consumer
I needed something to get rid of the musty smell from a very humid autumn here. Ordered after Christmas, but took about 10-days to get here (coming from west coast to the east, reason for delay?). Anyway, it works well and has pretty much eliminated the mustiness from the furniture in the living room. Have had it for a few weeks now. The only thing is during the warranty period, should it stop working, I have to box it up and pay for shipping, insurance, etc., AND send $20 for shipping back to me. I think that is a little excessive. If it stops working, I'll probably just put the money toward something else. But, so far, so good!

Awesome. Lasts for a little over a year. Nov 06, 2008

Made the air smell great. Cleaned out the dust I'm allergic to. Broke after about a year and a few months.

good product, good price Dec 01, 2009
By C. Skodelica
Bought one of these to help with allergies after trying TWO sharper image purifiers that quit in less than a year. This one is not as silent but does the job just as well. It fell over and started to rattle but once we jostled it a little it was OK. The dust it picks up is evident when you clean the unit but bottom line - the sniffling and sneezing (with a bird in the room at that) has virtually stopped.

Works well for pet odor Nov 09, 2009
By Tim Gulley
I purchased this item specifically because I have two cats, and even with regular litter box maintenance, I'm pretty conscious of the smell. I hate being one of THOSE people, so something had to be done. After trying a couple other cheaper products, I came across this one, and all I can say is that it works perfectly.
I use it in combination with one of those Glade plug-ins, and I swear it's like the cats were never here. Oh sure, I can't let the litter box go for forever either, but this product has by far taken care of the normal daily smell of the litter box.
I highly recommend it to any fellow pet lovers, and while you're at it, I'd suggest getting one of these too Glade PlugIns Scented Oil Fan with 2 Extra Outlets, Clean Linen , 1 kit
Finally, I will just add that this product is far from silent, but it's certainly no louder than you would expect out of a normal house fan.
If you ask me, I give it two thumbs up!
UPDATE:
As others have commented, this product lasted about a year. It's still going, but the blower motor is really loud and annoying now. I've contacted the company regarding purchasing another blower motor, but in the process, I discovered that you can get this same product directly from their website for literally HALF the price you can here! It's $32.99 there, $64.99 here. Granted, you wouldn't have Amazon's stellar customer service, but I have to admit, I feel a bit ripped off after discovering this huge price difference.
Despite it all, it is still a great product. I'll keep everyone updated on any information I get back from them regarding replacing the fan (as opposed to buying a whole new unit).
UPDATE #2:
The company completely replaced the entire unit for a $15 shipping charge, which seems more than fair.
