Hamilton Beach TrueAir Room Air Freshener Odor Eliminator with 3 Carbon Filters + Green Mountain Scent Cartridge for Common Household-Tobacco, Pet, Bathroom & Trash, White (04532GM)

Small, effective, quiet and somewhat expensive over the long run
If you’re looking for an air circulator/purifier/deodorizer thats small in size, quiet and inexpensive to buy, I’m pleased with this one. Its about 8″ tall and 7″ on the sides, has two speeds on top, air goes in three of the four sides and out the fourth. Each of those 3 intakes has a flat air filter with charcoal powder in it, they’re keyed to fit so pay attention to which way you put them in by comparing the notch on the filter with the notch inside the filter drawer. There is a small container of febreze similar to the ones that go into the home febreze ‘holders’, clear plastic with the oil inside. You insert that and a bump inside the filter holder pokes a hole in it.On either speed its pretty quiet and makes a gentle ‘white noise’ whirring. It uses a “squirrel cage” type fan that moves a good bit of air without a lot of sound. Even on high its a pleasant sound that you could easily sleep through and might even mask other noises.As with any ‘air purifier’, the problem is getting the dust and stuff that needs filtering to the filter. Thats a problem because most particles are heavy and sink shortly after becoming airborn, or are so light they stay up and away from the filter. So I wouldnt expect a cleaner room or relief from a significant allergy problem by using this or most any other air filtration device. What it does do is make the room you put it in smell better and it’ll certainly filter out some allergens and dust that pass through it. The charcoal and febreze definitely reduce odors. I’ve tried this out in the ‘cat room’ that has our cat boxes and feeding area. A blindfolded person would have no problems locating our cat room my smell alone, but after about 2 hours the cat room smelled no more. I also tried it in a 3 car garage that has a couple of cars, lawn care gear, the furnace and water heater, plus a bunch of other stuff. It usually smells like musty rubber, gasoline, wet grass and vaguely of dog poop since I pick plenty of that up on the mowers when I’m cutting the grass. After having this little cube running on LOW overnight, all I could smell walking around was dry particle board in our cabinets. If you’ve ever walked into a brand new house thats being built, thats the smell…clean, dry, wood sawdust kind of smell.It did that with just the charcoal, I havent put the febreze packet in yet.The downside and expense with this filter is it taking 3 filter pads and a febreze unit probably once every month or so. Most of your large room size models can go a few months without a change but the filters can be $50+. These are less expensive but charcoal only lasts so long. I may look for someone selling sheets of the filtration material and try cutting some to fit, see if I can keep the costs down.But awesome little filter to put in the animal area, the kids rooms that never get cleaned, the garage/shop, next to a smoker or anywhere else theres a smell.
