  Simple isn't always a bad thing

  The Pure Zone air purifier is must for anyone with allergies and breathing problems. The provided hepa filter with UV lighting insures that not only pet dander and allergies get filtered but also virus's and bacteria as well. This air purifier is probably one the most simplistic designs and sets up that i have seen. Out of the box you get the main unit and filter and that's about it. There were no instructions packed with the box but that's simply because you really don't need one. Once plugged in you really only have a few opotions as to what you can do. You have your on/off button with filter indicator light, fan speed button to switch between three speeds, UV-C button (which basically means rather or not you want the UV light running, and a sleep timer button which allows you to switch between three different time modes ( 2hr,4hr,8hr). This unit is designed realistically to be placed in a bedroom and not a large open space like a kitchen or living room. Main reason being is the size of the unit. It comes in about the size of a small plant or large book. So does the purifier actually do what its intended to? I truly believe it does. I say this due to the fact i noticed im getting much better sleep after placing this unit in my bedroom. Im waking up feeling less congested and more refreshed. I have two large dogs and there is pet hair everywhere. It's on the floor, the chair and the mattress. I feel like this caused me to wake up most mornings feeling like my nasal passage ways were so congested and irritated as a result of all the pet hair. Since using the purifier for the last week i can honestly say i feel like im getting a better nights sleep while waking up feeling i can breathe. The low fan speed noise means that i can run the unit all night long on the medium setting while not being kept up by the fan motor. And even at the highest setting the fan does get loud however it is never overwhelming and in fact Pure Zone does such a good job at damping the motor that the fan noise at high speed acts as perfect white noise. Air purifiers are one of those things that's really gonna come down to personal perspective. Everyone's experience is going to differ but the ultimate goal is to have the same end result, which is cleaner air. We add filters to purify our drinking water so why not do the same for the air we breathe? For me i truly believe this unit has helped purifier my bedroom air resulting in a better nights sleep. The unit does a fantastic job at staying quiet as well as keeping the light low so that you can sleep at night. This unit is simplistic in the way of you simply picking a spot, plugging it in and forgetting it. There are no apps to download and no wi-fi to link it to which makes it perfect if you are one of those technology challenged people. In a busy world sometimes i don't have time or feel like linking it up to apps and wi-fi and then dial in all my settings and so on and so forth. The simplicity of this unit really had me impress as all i had to do was plug it in, turn it on and let the unit do the rest. For me i highly recommend this unit if you are looking to purify a small room such as bedroom or office.

  Compact but helps keep your indoors clean...

  • Tech Insider Network Member

  Indoor air quality in many homes is said to be many times WORSE than the air outdoors, even if you are pretty diligent about keeping your home clean. It’s become more important than ever to have something in your home that helps to clean the gunk out of the air that otherwise your nose would be taking in. The Pure Enrichment Purzone air purifier is one of those types of devices. This model is rated for rooms up to 200 square feet (rooms approximately up to 14x15 feet). It’s relatively small at around 12 inches tall and barely under 11 inches wide, so it can sit on a tabletop with no problem. Air is taken in via two slot areas on the front, passes through the multi-stage filter, and filtered air comes out into your room from the top. The filter consists of a prefilter, an activated carbon filter, and then a “true HEPA” filter. Now, HEPAs come in varying degrees of effectiveness – this one is rated to remove particles as small as .3 microns from the air. This includes dust, pet dander, pollen, mold spores, certain VOCs… basically, things that irritate your lungs and sinuses and make you sneeze. It’s important to note that viruses are .1 microns (smaller) so this doesn’t really remove viruses (that requires a medical-grade HEPA filter), however, the Purzone does include a UV-C light as well, which at least according to claims, will help to make certain germ uglies inert. On top of the sanitizer is a control panel with the air output grill surrounding it. Controls include power, a timer so you can have it automatically shut off at 2,4, or 8 hours, the UV-C light on/off button, and low, medium, and high output settings. An indicator will let you know when it’s time to change the filter, which can vary from 3 to 6 months in my past experience depending on how dirty your air is – pet owners or those in highly polluted areas can expect to change it more, while those in less polluted settings, less. It uses around 60 watts of power. I found the low and medium settings to be pretty quiet and appropriate for my bedroom when I’m sleeping. High (level 3) bumps up the air flow and noise somewhat, and was a bit too loud for me at night, but I let a friend try it out and they said high was ok for them, so your preferences will vary. I use it on medium (level 2) throughout the day. If you have no other air purifiers in your home, personally I would suggest having at least two like the Purzone – one in your main living area, and one in your bedroom, to make any real impact. Of course, more if your budget allows or if you have a larger home. The manufacturer includes a very good 5 year warranty with these, so you shouldn’t have to worry about longer term holding up. I recommend the Purzone 200 because it’s not too large and bulky, and based on previous experience with a very similar model that uses the exact same filter, I have no doubt that this one will do what it advertises for the space it’s rated for as well over time as I use it more. Filters are only around $20(ish) or less, so the cost-use of these isn’t as high as many other models out there, too. The quality of the air you’re breathing indoors is highly important, so it’s important to use something like this to help keep it filtered. Thumbs up!

  Small, quiet and great for allergies

  The Pure Enrichment PureZone 3-in-1 true HEPA filter air purifier is great for people like me who suffer from allergies and have an appreciation and need for air clean of allergens. It is small enough to fit in a tight space and for small rooms or offices up to 200 square feet. I live in a valley area filled with trees I am allergic to year-round. We have air purifiers all throughout our house and wanted one for my office at work as well to help alleviate allergens while I am there five days a week. This model happened to be the perfect size for my office and fits nicely either on my desk or on the floor. On the top of the purifier you have push button options for three speeds, an option to turn the UV light on/off and a timer which also comes in handy when I am not in the office. The highest fan speed is quiet enough in a small office to not be too much of a distraction. The 3-in-1 filter consists of a pre-filter, a carbon filter to filter any smells, and a true HEPA filter to rid the air of dust and allergens. I have been happy with the investment so far and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a small air purifier for their home or office.
