Look no further!
I suffer from seasonal allergies bad, bad. I also have a major highway 300ft from back door. So I have smog, dust, and debris build up. I figured I’d try an air purifier to see if it would help. I did my research and settled on this one. I’ve had it for 3wks. It’s been running about 75% of the time. And today I checked the filter. I attached the picture. It’s mind blowing how much itchy stuff is on the filter. However, I’ve noticed a significant difference in my health since running the purifier. So much so when I leave out the house my body immediately goes haywire with coughin, sneezing, and itching. I love it so much I bought another unit for my summer home. It was easy to setup. Sleek modern design. Lightweight to carry. The 5 fan settings are great. The higher the fan level the louder the unit. Has a timer that you can program the unit to run up to 7 hours. The UV light gives added comfort that micro organisms will be killed on contact. It doubles as a cooling fan as it keeps my room chilled while on. It also filters odors. I deep fried catfish, and whiting the other night. The unit filtered the air in the house and after an hr after cooking you couldn’t even tell I fried fish. Smell… gone! I highly recommend this anybody!

Litter Box smells GONE! UPDATE!
Pull out of the box, remove plastic protective bag, plug in. Turn on, 4 different fan levels. Simple, Simple, Simple! This is my 2nd purchase. 1st was for the bathroom with the 2 large cat litter boxes. 3 cats. Used to be lots of smells, no fun. Now, stink free, and clay powder being trapped by the pre filter. Not dusty anymore. Cats are happy. People are happy. Worked so well, I bought another for my wife’s sewing room. I guess lots of bolts of fabric come with lots of dust. She’d be stuffy and sneezing. Today will be her first day in the GermGuardian Hepa purifier sewing room. Will report on her reaction. I expect it to be positive. Way to go Germ Guardian. I was skeptical, now I’m not. Day 2 of the dusty sewing room…it’s gone! Not the sewing room…the DUST! Gone! No sneezing or congestion after working in there all day. These things really work! .

8 Years and Still Going
I bought this thing in 2016 when it cost ~$138. It seems to have gone up substantially since then.If you can get this on sale, I highly recommend it as the price I paid for *even then* is still too high. This was also rated for rooms up to 165 square feet (my room just about fills that need); it is now allegedly rated for rooms up to “915 square feet”, yet they said far less for a much bigger unit that they sell. I think that’s a massive lie, and they probably tested it at the highest speed possible, which is insanely inefficient.I’m also very shocked that it’s incredibly overpriced despite the fact that this product is several years old; the age of the product should be reflected in the price.The design of this product has the air shoot out towards its left at an angle, possibly somewhere between the 35 and 45 degree mark. The max fan speed, while noisy, isn’t overwhelming, but it can be an issue at night, which is typical. The display can actually fade over time, and it may not be as legible or bright and clear as the first time you’ve installed it. While the red power light isn’t that bright and is bright enough to not light up your entire room, the garish, tacky UV light indicator should have had a much smaller LED like the power indicator light was, because it completely lights up the room at night and makes it very difficult to sleep. And I noticed that the fan got squeaky roughly about maybe 4 years after I first started using it, which is frankly annoying, but after some consideration even with a customer service agent, I decided it wasn’t worth it. It still works and I’ve gotten used to it by now.Otherwise, the UV bulb I recall lasted only between 2 to 4 years before it completely burnt out for good; replacing the bulb is relatively inexpensive, but the price is still a bit hefty. Even then, properly disposing of it is incredibly difficult, as not many locations are willing to take it from you, so you can’t just take it to some brick-and-mortar store where they’ll take CFL bulbs , but get stingy when you ask them to take your dead germicidal (UV-C) bulb. This is a common problem for every product that uses UV-C lighting specifically to kill certain germs.Even then, I read on either Consumer Reports or another reputable site that germicidal bulbs in terms of removing viruses, bacteria and mould in the air require an extensive period of time to completely sanitise the air in comparison to what air purifiers like this one allows. Therefore, it shows how needless UV bulbs in air purifiers and even furnaces really are; there’s very little to no time available for these bulbs to actually do their intended job, because air moves relatively fast from the prefilter to the egress of the purifier itself.While it still works today, I don’t exactly notice a whole lot in terms of cleanliness of the air, but the filter DOES get rather dirty (but not near-black or dark grey) when I use it 24/7, so I can say that it at least helps *reduce* the amount of dust particles in the air. When I get sick, I’ve used this as high as it can go, and run it all the time and keep the windows shut if it’s too hot or too cold outside.Overall, as I said in the second paragraph of this review: I absolutely recommend it, especially when it’s on sale. It’s not really worth over $100 (US), but it does its job when it can.

No more waking up with stuffed nose and immediately needing to blow my nose
I was a skeptical at first. I do notice a difference in the air quality in the area I’m using it in. I never realized how dusty my house was until I got this. It also seems to help with pet odors and perhaps even my housemates vaping

Works great
Has been running consistently and no issues thus far. On top speed it also helps cools the room.

Did someone call for fresh air?
So the room size isn’t that big so this purifier is just right. Its virtually silent until you turn the wind speed up. Even then its not a crazy loud noise. Its easy to use and build last. It doesn’t take up much power either or at least for us it didn’t. What I am bewildered about it function. Because when you look at it you’d assume the fresh air is going to blow out straight. Instead ot comes out side ways and we have to angle it in such a way in order to get the fresh air on us. I mean don’t get me wrong it works far better than what it exceeded. Its just jarring and not sure if thats intentional or just a flaw. Either way I like it, because I grew up with asthma so this helps keep the air crisp and clean

Works great
Bought for my room, and I love it. Glad I bought it, easy to set up and fairly quiet compared to others I’ve used in years past! But it is large
