Customer Review: First impression of unit after two hours of use
Summary: 3 Stars
I'm starting to get paranoid and am wondering just how many of these reviews are genuine. One thing that put me over the edge when comparing this unit to the Blueair 203 was that this unit has a five year warranty. One reviewer of a Blueair unit said that the box for his unit (Blueair 403) said a ten year warranty but that the documentation inside said one year. That makes NO sense to me now that I think of it and now I'm wondering if that Blueair reviewer was reimbursed in some manner.
Only one other reviewer of the Rabbit Air model 421A mentioned the outgassing from the unit (plasic/ VOC) type smell when you first turn it on. That's out of dozens of reviews. (I'm hoping it will diminish over time on my unit) ....
This unit is made in China but it does not say so on the Box (sneaky). It does say so on the unit. The 203 and 250E Blueair units are also made in China. The more expensive units are assembled in Illinois I gather.
People who submit fake reviews deserve to be put at the 500 yard radius of an atomic bomb test.
Customer Review: Amazing unit
Summary: 5 Stars
All I can say is I'm extremely pleased with this unit.
I got the Anti-Flu HEPA filter for it which is one of the largest HEPA filters I have ever seen.
Watching the sensors operate is educational. We learned a lot about air quality just by watching the sensors. We use it in a dance studio where a lot of people are doing a lot of breathing. A woman walking past with heavy perfume set off the odor filter.
Simply shaking a blanket near the thing set its particle sensor on overload for a good 10 minutes.
It's very sensitive and very good, the difference in air quality
is very noticeable and seems to help a bit with people who cat allergies...maybe the cat dander is getting sucked in?
As a funny little aside - my wife likes to light incense in the bedroom some nights and we forgot we had it running. The machine went on high alert, both sensors went up to red level and it successfully removed both the odor and the smoke of the incense...much to our chagrin.
This is a good machine to have.
Customer Review: Very Good good for smoker households
Summary: 4 Stars
I just recently moved in with a relative who is a smoker and we ordered this for the living room. I am very allergic to cigarette smoke and the smell really disgusts me so I was willing to pay extra money for a good purifier. I was not disappointed, although the first day I didn't see that much of a difference and I started to think I had made a mistake. By the second day I guess it had filtered all of the air a few times and the smoke smell was greatly reduced. With cigarette smells, you sort of have to really vacuum the carpet, launder linen and wipe down the walls because it clings to everything but the air purifier made it so much better. The unit is rather big so make sure you have space for it. I ran it on high for the first 3 days and then put it on auto and I find it worked very well. At times I turn it on high when my relative smokes in their bedroom and it eventually "eats" up the smoke smell that wafts out the closed door. Also in Auto mode if someone burns something or lights incense, it ramps up on its own. A very good air purifier.Customer Review: The best
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a bit skeptical about this humidifier thinking nothing is this good. But, because of all the rave reviews I bought it. It has definitely lived up to all the great reviews. It's very "high-tech". It's both an air purifier and odor remover. There are several options, the pollen mode, ionizer on and off, night mode (virtually no sound), fan mode (1-4) and the auto mode. I bought the 788 sq ft capacity model and placed it upstairs (800 sq. ft) where I do all my cooking and where everybody hangs out. No cooking smell anymore. Dust has definitely been reduced. I really really like the auto mode because it doesn't waste electricity. It kicks in when it needs to (read the booklet on how to set it at baseline). When I move it to the kids' room, I turn the fan full blast for an hour until the air and odor indicator appears "clean" then I switch to auto mode. This is necessary to let the humidifier know what is clean and the auto mode is based on those readings. I'm buying another one for downstairs.Customer Review: Great Air Purifier - Filter Change Can Jeopardize Warranty
Summary: 4 Stars
The Biofresh is an excellent air cleaner and I think will become as popular as the Sharp Plasmacluster unit. I do not know if the Biofresh actually cleans a 600 sq ft area as claimed but in average sized rooms it is quite effective. Air quality smells cleaner and allergies have much improved. With 4 dogs and living off of a rural dirt (dust!!!) road this is unit excels in improving our air quality inside. Be sure to read the 5 year warranty. The warranty states that if you do not change the filter (Biofresh filter only) every 18 months (no, not every 3 years as filter life is advertised) then the warranty is null & void. I probably won't have to worry about this since there is so much dust and dog in our house we will need to change within the limitations stated in the warranty. I think this limitation is an important little piece of information left out of the product information specs for those of you thinking no filter expense for 3 years. With that in mind I gave this unit a 4 star rating .
