Good but not clear about safety of ionizer August 30, 2010
Y. Rendu
The filter seems to do a good job. It is not nearly as quiet as some reviewers mention, the sound is quite audible at night, but not irritatingly so.
The ionizer switch lights up just as much as the built-in "night light." Ionizers are known to create ozone (see Consumer Reports.) The manual says not to use the ionizer if you suffer from asthma. Put all these together and it sounds like the ionizer is not completely safe. I recommend not using the ionizer when the room is occupied, or only for short periods of time. If it has been on for an extended period of time, let fresh air into the room before spending some time in the room.

This small air cleaner is best for very small areas. It sits atop my cat's litter box located in the bathroom and does an adequate job of controlling litter box odors between changes. It can also be mounted on a wall if you don't have a place for it to sit. Replacement filters are relatively expensive at $42.00. It's fairly quiet on low and has strong airflow. I think it's a too noisy and too small for the average bedroom. Permanent filter doesn't really mean permanent however. Permanent filters do become clogged over time and simply must be replaced. It's a decent little unit for very small areas.......recommended!!!!
 Not so much! August 28, 2010

I was going to wait awhile and review after I'd used the product a little longer, but based on my initial impression, I'm pretty disappointed with it. The unit looks fine and seems reasonably sturdy, but it's quite noisy, even at the lowest setting, and the fan emits a shrill whirring sound that does not seem like white noise to me. It's impossible to ignore it. It sounds like an airplane. Maybe the problem for me is it seems to be generating sound at a different frequency from the lower level hum of the air conditioner and computer in the room ( so the various fan noises are not harmonically 'in sync". ) It has a much higher pitch than my last air purifier, which I loved, but was discontinued. I still have that one, but can no longer find filters for it, so I only use it for white noise and as a fan. Worse yet, after using the Honeywell for a few hours (without the ionizer turned on and the door closed), the room actually started to smell terrible. I dont know if this equipment requires a 'break in period' to air out the harsh (chemical/smoke) smell of the filter, but it was a very unpleasant and irritating -- hardly what one wants in an air "purifier"! As for the noise -- on high it is much too loud - on low, I had to turn it off so I could watch tv and then get some sleep. My trusty old (Amcor HEPA tower) filter provided a steady unobtrusive low-pitched hum, a cool breeze, and genuine HEPA filtration and ionizer that made the air feel "good." This unit blows air out of the top, so if you want it to act like a fan with air aimed horizontally , you have to flip it on its side (which , on a positive note, also takes up a bit less room on the end table). Even in that position, though, with the output aimed strategically, it doesn't seem to be circulating much air, especially given the intensity of the fan. I'm willing to give it a try, so will leave it running while away from home today and will see if things improve noticeably. The room air was definitely worse with it on than with it off last night, and while this morning the chemical emissions were less noticeable, the air quality in the room had not improved noticeably. No dust seems to have been collected while the unit was on. I dont know if this is the way they ALL are, if this will improve after a 'break in period', or if this particular unit has a problem, but at this point I can't recommend it and probably will not keep it. To be fair, I'll give it a few days and report back and revise my review if the situation improves.
Update: After almost a week I finally opted to return the unit. It made absolutely no difference in the air quality of the small bedroom (though, the noxious smell that emanated from it when I first used it abated after about two days), there was very little air circulating, despite the really loud fan, and no visible dust was collected. It was pretty obvious that this was doing nothing for the quality of the room air and it was so annoying when on, I had to turn it off at night . (I should probably add that I am accustomed to using a filter on the bedside table, but I moved it across the room, and it was still too loud.) I decided to shop for another option rather than just tolerating this one. On the plus side, kudos to Amazon for making the return easy. Their customer service is top notch, and I really appreciate it.
