GermGuardian - Table Top UV Sanitizer and Deodorizer Air Purifier - Onyx black

Definitely helps with odors. Not sure if it kills bacteria and viruses as there is no way to test for it. It is quiet and looks good on our countertop.

So I find it really hard to review air purifiers because unfortunately I think it is based on your interpretation of it's effectiveness. I can say that it makes a little noise nothing too distracting. In the beginning it had a subtle odor so I'd say if you do purchase it to let it run in a room separate from where you'd like it to be just to let it operate for a bit until that's gone. It doesn't require a filter which is a huge plus. We really struggle with sickness in my house during the winter and since I put it in it seems to have reduced it but like I said that could because my kids aren't getting sick or because it's working kind of hard to say. So in closing if you believe that these things work I think it's a fine product and if not then I don't think any of these reviews are going to convince you. Therefore I'm rating it average but I would definitely say it's worth a shot.

Bought it because i have very bad allergies and asthma combined. From when i plugged it in maybe a few minutes after you notice the difference.

Love my germ guardian! I bought three of them and gave them away as gifts. This sanitizer works quickly and quietly to rid my room of annoying food smells, and restore clean air smell. I have four dogs and this deodorizer makes a huge difference!

I was not sure about pulling the trigger on this product but the reviews convinced me. I am so glad I listened to the reviews as I could not agree more. This product works and does what it's supposed to.

This Germ guardian has made a great difference in our air quality! You see, we have 3 dogs in our house and it has helped out greatly. I am going to buy one for upstairs also. Even if we did not have dogs I would have one or 3 in my house. Great product Best Buy!

It's not especially quiet but it works really well. I put it in my animal room with my cat's litter box, a Guinea pig, a gecko and multiple aquariums and there's very little smell.

I have had this for 6 months. I have had UV sanitizer/ionizers for a dog kennel before- the thousand dollar ones. I got this one for a 17x20 bedroom, with vaulted ceiling. I did not expect it to do the job, but to give me an idea for what would be needed. I was surprised to make it through winter and spring with no major illness(and I work with the public in a capacity where I meet hundreds of people per day). I have an Air Genius downstairs and this is up. This unit is maintenance free. Just plug and go. It is quiet to me. The new odor is gone, and other odors do not last long. Do not use this with aroma therapy diffusers- this makes it pointless. Scented candles too. Enjoy one or the other. On the other hand, if you get a candle or scent smell you can’t stand, just turn this on. Cord is long enough for a normal sized room. Reaches the top of a tallboy.
