Very reasonable cost.. "I bought two".
It moves air very silently on low and medium to high settings moves a large volume of air and has a very soft and pleasant breeze too.
It can handle frequent door openings as some ion models cannot handle introduction of new "unclean" air into the room without taking a fair amount of time to "reclean" the room.
This handles a large amount of air very quickly when on high and gives off a cool refreshing breeze with a fresh smell.
The Photo catalyst technology is state of the art and the UV technology is great for those who worry about live viruses and bacteria spreading through the family. No filters to replace, but merely vacuum and no blades to replace.
The UV light recommended for killing germs and you have a choice for optional use. If used constantly for about 2 years, the manual recommends replacing to maintain maximum killing power against germs.
For 100 bucks, you can't beat the coverage and "attack on 3 fronts" technologies to keep your room allergen free.
If your room takes allot of abuse from animals, fans, open doors etc.. get this.
If you prefer total silence all the time, I recommend the ION Turbo, but remember its drawbacks as mentioned above.
I don't like the idea of "finding" replacement filters and paying for them as some other models require.... nor do I want to replace blades as the ION turbo requires after about 2 years. |
Works as claimed - maybe better.

A few nights ago I came home to find the neighbor in the apartment below mine cooking out. All of the smoke kept blowing into my apartment. My neighbor in the apartment just south of mine smokes, and somehow the smell of cigarettes makes it into my apartment as well. I came home after a long day, and I could not breathe in my own apartment. I ran out and purchased this air purifier. Within minutes, the air in my apartment cleared up. It was like having a new window that opened up to fresh air. I am simply amazed. Odors are gone. As an added bonus, this moves quite a bit of air too, and quietly. It's nice having a cool breeze of fresh clean air.
This unit also has a very handy handle built into the top rear of the unit, which makes moving it around very easy. |
Definitely an air pruifier to buy

| I bought this air filter about 3 months ago and it has done a fantastic job. I am a seasonal allergy sufferer and a smoker. Yes, I smoke in the house. This air filter does a great job in my 12x17 living room with a hallway and kitchen exposure. When I start feeling my sinuses clog up from all the pollen on the way home from work, I just turn this machine on medium and in less than an hour, my symptoms are relieved. I like the uv light to kill the germs as the surrounding suburban city governments are using it to purify their water systems with success. Yes, it works well removing the smoke from the air but the down side is the HEPA filter will be stained and the company says it does not detract from the performance and it hasnt. That is why I give it 4 stars instead of 5. It is somewhat noisy on the high setting but any of the air filters are. On low setting, there is hardly a whisper. I have the product in the living room pointing towards the hallway where the air conditioner filters are and I have found the air in the hallway, kitchen and back bedrooms to be batter than without. |
Needed warranty service

I hope I just got a rare bad one, but my unit purchased 6 months ago now sounds like a lawn mower. It gets louder as I increase the speed to medium and high. I keep it running 24/7 and I suspect the ball bearings in the fan motor are worn out.
I called Therapure's customer service center to file a warranty claim and they offered to replace my unit, but they want me to pay $29.95 for a shipping and handling fee. That's 1/3 of the price I paid for the new unit 6 months ago and I'm not willing to pay another 30% of the price for them to replace my unit.
Just a warning, if you ever need warranty service.
