Holmes - Air Purifier - Black

I bought this 16 days ago and it works very well. The main complaint a lot of people have about air purifiers is the noise. On high this one is noisy enough that you won’t be able to hear your television. On low it is still noisy but not so loud that you can’t hear TV. I have mine on top of my entertainment center right above my TV, and I do not need to turn the TV up any louder than usual to hear it when the purifier is on low. I have two Labrador retrievers that weigh 100lb and 105 lbs that spend 90% of their time in my room. Because of them there is a lot of dust in my room. Before I got this purifier I had a constant post nasal drip which caused chest congestion which caused me to always be hacking up mucus. This purifier has help to almost completely eliminate my chest congestion. Instead of hacking up mucus all day long it is only a few times a day now and that could be because my walls are covered in dust and need to be cleaned. The purifier comes with 2 aer1 total filters which are supposed to clean the air and eliminate odors but they do not eliminate odors. However you can buy replacement filters specifically for odor elimination or reducing allergens. The only reason I did not give this purifier 5 stars is because the filters are not permanent and I think the ionizer stopped working. When I first turned this on I could smell the ozone created by the ionizer. I only used the ionizer feature on the first day and a week later when I turned the ionizer feature back on I could not smell the ozone form ionizer anymore. I am going to return this purifier and either get one with permanent filters or one that is a true hepa filter because if I am going to have to replace filters I want the best filters available.

The main reason I needed an air purifier is because I live an in apartment complex that still allows smoking within the building. I'm not a smoker myself but the past tenants and the tenant below me smoke. Cigarette smoke permeates through the floors and walls leaving all of my clothes smelling gross! I tried other means of removing the smell without success (i.e., charcoal filters, damp rid...). This unit works great! I'm well pleased with its performance and the reasonable price! It is somewhat noisy, but I don't mind because it provides a "white noise" in my apartment to hide the noises coming from the other units in my building. I hope this review is helpful for you.

I use it in our living room works very well cleans the air in no time

I have two of these. They move a reasonable amount of air, fairly quietly, without any squeaks, vibrations, etc. Filters are easy to find. Always hard to tell if these things are doing what they say (cleaning the air), as we don't have a lot of odors in our new house, just trying to decrease cat dander for company and toxins from new home materials. If I live long, it worked I guess.

The design is very nice and compact in comparison to my old purifier. It is also quite powerful.

As smokers, we've always been mindful of guests in our home and had many rooms to choose air purifiers for. This model is powerful and effective in the larger rooms and it's attractive design made it work even where it is out in the open and can't be hidden or disguised. It's high quality appearance and function was well priced and a real value after considering and comparing many options.

It is the best air purifier I have ever owned. While filtering the dust and dander, it refreshes the air. The room even smells better.

It is a decent air purifier. The only complaints are that it can be noisy and the fan blows out quiet a large amount of air that may cool down the heating level in the winter.
