Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell Long-Life Pure HEPA QuietCare Air Purifier, 17000
Customer Review: Don't bother.
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this machine and was very disappointed. It is loud, bulky and does not do a good job filtering the air. I would recommend getting a really good vacuum (we have the yellow Dyson and it does a wonderful job) and just going over your floors and surfaces everyday if you want to cut down on dust and pet hair.Customer Review: Entirely met my expectations
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this for one week now and it seems to be a quality product that does exactly what it claims to do. I am using one of these in the center of my 1000 sq. ft. house. Of course, that is beyond this products effective range by 5-6 times. No, it does not filter the whole house, but it is effective enough that I plan to purchase one or two additional larger units to add filtering capacity in different rooms.
I recommend this product matched to room size. This units capacity is 168 sq. ft. It has a convenient handle and can be moved easily from room to room.
It does make noise. However, there are 3 speeds if you need less noise. On a scale of 1-10 10 being loudest, I would rate the three speeds noise as 2 - 4 - 9.
You people that feel a need to disable blue power indicators, have you tried to black tape over it? The light from this nit is insignificant anyway.
Customer Review: Everything I hoped for

I've had this product for about 3 years and am very pleased. The noise level is fine for me. We keep it on low and have no trouble listening to the TV. It also provides some nice white noise for sleeping.I change the carbon prefilter every 2 months and it is amazing how much dust is on it. I buy cheap replacement carbon filters at Lowes. The HEPA filter I changed once (after 2 years). These are pricey, but with the amount of dust this thing takes out of the air, I knew it was a good investment.
Filters are easy to change, machine itself is easy to clean, and it does a great job.
Customer Review: Exactly what I wanted!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this because I owned this model for about 10 years and loved it. After 10 years the motor appears to have blown out when our electricity went off and on, one day during a storm.
I noticed from a review on here that they said they didn't get a pre-filter when they ordered this model. So I ordered one separately. But then my 17000 Honeywell arrived in the mail 4 days after ordering and the pre filter was inside the box. I pulled out filter, stuck on pre filter, plugged in and nothing could've been easier!!!!! And it's so quiet! Actually it's funny because after about 10 years of having this going 24 hrs a day in my bedroom, when it broke and the room didn't have the soft purr of the Honeywell, it was too quiet!!! I like a little white noise to drown out other things like a clock ticking and people walking up the stairs, etc! :-) So I am very happy I bought this model again! I considered other more elaborate models, but I kept reading that they are louder and while I like a little white noise, I don't really want too much. And this is the perfect size for my bedroom. And finally, the air is fresh and I'm not coughing!! Oh, P.S. The one thing I would change on this is that they have a blue light to indicate if you are on high, medium or low. Well, I like it completely dark in my bedroom when I'm sleeping and the light was shining so I had to cover it. But not a huge deal.
Customer Review: Excellent Air Purifier!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Works like a charm, just as the product description made it out to be. Comes with one replacement carbon filter included.
One thing I figured I'd mention is that it may not be as quiet as you're expecting. It's probably quieter than all the other air purifiers in its class, but sometimes at night, even on the low setting, I need to turn it off to get to sleep. Sometimes, though, I fall asleep without even realizing it's still on.
