Summary: Honeywell HFD-130 Air Purifier
Comment: I was pleasantly surprised to find that this air purifier actually works well. I had always been skeptical as to the efficiency of air purifiers, but after using this one for a month or so, I am sure that they work as advertised...or at least this one does, which is surprising considering the relatively low price. I used to often wake up in the morning with a headache or bad nasal congestion, but since running this air purifier, I have been waking up with no headache and a clear nose. I am also satisfied with the low noise level of the purifier. Even when on the highest setting it makes less noise than my year old air conditioner (which doesn't make that much noise). I cannot really imagine this air purifier being any better, not that I have any other air purifiers to compare it to, but this one does everything it says it will, everything I wanted it to do.

Summary: Works well, but needed to "outgas" before using
Comment: I bought this to use at work, in an old and very dusty 14 story building. It has worked well and reduced asthma and allergy symptoms there for me. I've cleaned lots of nasty dust out of the filter three times now since I've had it. You do have to let the filter dry overnight if you wash it with water, but I just wash it at the end of the day, set it on paper towels to dry, and put it back in the next morning. I love that I don't have to shell out 125 dollars for a full set of replacement filters like I did for my round HEPA filter.
I run it on medium, and that is quiet enough not to disturb the people in the next cubes. They did object to having it on high, saying that was too loud. It creates static in my phone if I get too close to it; so it's in the part of my cube away from my chair.
It has helped tremendously with getting irritating particles out of the air at work, but I don't find it can filter out any solvents or VOCs like perfumes, cleaning sprays, etc. It only clears particles. But then the filters that do clear solvents and airbone chemicals cost more in the range of 1,000 dollars.
The only problem I had with it was the strong "black plastic" smell when I first bought it. I ran it for about five weeks in an unused area of my house before that chemical-ish smell went away. After that smell wore off it was great. Just be aware that if you are chemically sensitive, along with sensitive to particles, that you might have to let it air out for a few weeks before using it in your living or working space.

Summary: Defective product
Comment: I am on deployment in Kabul, Afghanistan and needed an air purifier. There is a lot of smog here and many of us have been sick. Since you wouldn't send to an APO address, it had to be shipped to my husband, who, in turn, shipped it straight to me. I just received it last night, March 5th, and it would not even turn on.
I have already put it in the mail according to your directions, but I feel you should ship it directly to me - at the APO address I have provided. If I hadn't needed this, I would not have ordered it. I might change my rating if it is shipped straight to me and it WORKS!

Summary: Works Great
Comment: This air filtration system works great but the ABS surface gets dirty easily... Don't expect it to look pretty... Buy the unit in black..

To rid a room of unhealthy or irritating airborne particles such as dust, smoke, and mold, an air purifier can be indispensable. Manufacturer of a wide assortment of air treatment products, Honeywell combines HEPA and IFD (intense field dielectric) filtration methods in this germicidal electronic tower for effective cleansing. Energy-Star certified, the 60-watt purifier removes up to 99.97 percent of a room's air impurities for better breathing. The air purifier best suits rooms 200 square feet in size. The user selects from the three operation speeds for purification or takes advantage of the 12-hour programmable timer. Air circulates silently through the machine up to four times an hour without any disruption to the room's natural air flow. The purifier traps impurities via filtration and ionization, releasing clean air into the room. While the IFD filter never need be replaced, the purifier illuminates an indicator light when cleaning is necessary. Users clean the filter by rinsing half a dozen times a year or they might choose to vacuum the IFD filter to clear debris. As with all electric appliances, read all information prior to using the purifier. The air purifier measures 19.37 by 15.39 by 14.21 inches and weighs 12.9 pounds. --Jessica Reuling
