Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell 50250 99.97% Pure HEPA Round Air PurifierCustomer Review: Excellent for reducing smoke odors Summary: 5 Stars
When my boyfriend moved into a new apartment, he found out too late that the people below him smoke heavily and continuously. My eyes would water and burn and the smell was awful - it stuck to my clothes, hair and stuff. I desperately read tons of reviews on air purifiers and ultimately chose this one. It has made a huge difference! It has reduced the smoke odors dramatically. Other people have complained that it is noisy - and it is. But we turn it down to the lowest setting when we are watching t.v. or listening to music. Otherwise we leave it on high and it is no worse than all the other noise that comes with living in the city. In fact, it acts as white noise to drown out a lot of the street noise. His apartment is probably about 600 sq ft. This air purifier worked great for most of it, but we did end up needing a smaller extra one for the bedroom so we could run it with the door closed at night.
Customer Review: Extremely Satisfied! Summary: 5 Stars
I have to say I am extremely satisfied with this product! I felt like I was constantly chasing dust. I finish dusting and the last table I dusted needs dusting again! I try to air out the house, clean the blinds, wash the curtains, beat out the couch pillows, even getting up on the mattresses with a hepa vacuum cleaner and vacuuming the mattresses between changing sheets. I vacuum about every other day. I have done everything I can think of to curb the dust! We have lived in our home for 12 years. My husband does HVAC and I have been hoping our unit would kick the bucket so he could put in a whole house electrostatic filter which is about $600 just to help the problem. (It actually goes into the ductwork.) I went to a friends home and they had a free standing air cleaner and they were talking about no dust. I got on Amazon and researched the selection and ended up with this one. I am completely amazed! The dust in my home has finally met it's match! I was thinking it isn't that loud and couldn't figure out what some of the reviews were referring to when I realized for the first week, I had the machine on the lower setting. It is pretty loud but I don't care because it works! And we turn it off when we have company or we are watching a movie. One review said it is heavy but I carry it from room to room with no problems with the handle on the top. I took the carbon filter off after the first week and beat it out outside to start fresh. I am very happy and will probably not need the whole house filter after this! I also thought I read in a few reviews that the hepa filter needed to be replaced every three years. On the box though, the filter is referred to as lifetime and specifically states there is no need to replace it. If it starts getting too hard to clean, I priced it at around $60.
Customer Review: Extremly Loud Summary: 1 Stars
It took all but a minute to figure out that this unit is just too loud on the lowest setting. This unit might work great in a room that you do not use, but what's the point in that? You could also just turn the unit on when you are not in the room or when you leave the house altogether, but that's a pain and a purifier is best left on all the time. I eventually got the Blue air 201 series and at the highest setting it is quieter than this unit on the lowest! I really can't figure out why anyone could stand keeping this unit.
Customer Review: FABULOUS - Working perfectly after 3 years Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this 3 years ago and have had it plugged in and running almost all the time. It continues to work perfectly. The large circular filter only needs vacuuming every couple of months and the outer filter you change every three months. It takes an amazing amount of junk out of the air. It sits in my bedroom so it also provides a 'white-noise' background that is soothing. This unit is not ultra quiet but that's OK because it cleans the air so well. This unit is the real deal and not a light weight piece of junk. We love it.
Customer Review: Fabulous air filter! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for one reason: to help clean cat allergens out of the air so the ManBeast's allergies wouldn't be so bad. It has done a fabulous job at that. Bonus: it also takes care of litter box odors. If you've got mild to moderate cat allergies, and want to keep your cat, I really highly recommend getting something like this.
