Alen A375UV works as advertised!

Excellent product, works very well with tobacco smoke and cooking odors. Just set it to automatic, it is silent most of the time but will automatically adjust if it detects smoke or odor. Worth the money.
It works & the cost is right.

Reviewer: Guy with sneezey wife, Florida
I have been looking at and searching for a decent air purifying unit for at least 3 years, I find the cost runs way to high and the looks of the unit definitely wasn't designed by anyone with designing taste! And even though the germicidal UV light should be completely hidden from view most of the air filtering UV units I have looked at had obvious glowing of the eye damaging UV lighting.
Now for my review of this item,

The looks-acceptable.
Noise level-acceptable on low speed during sleeping.
Controls and adjusting-My wife has no problems working it! (Now that says a lot!)
The Glowing of the UV lights-Almost literally impossible to see!
Does it work?-my wife thinks Claritin cured her of her allergies. It took about 6 to 8 weeks letting it run 24-7 but it will clean up the impurities in the house and before you know it your not sneezing! Well it worked for me wife.
Would I buy another unit-Yes if needed.
The cost- acceptable
My only problem with it is "How would I know if one of the UV germicidal lights go out?"
I'm the type of person that probably never give out 5 stars to nothing, but I will give out 9.5 out of a 10 point scale for this item.
Not what I expected

Not what I've expected for almost $500. I got it three days ago. It produces ozone smell. On auto mode it can wake you up in the middle of the night because it suddently decides to go full speed. It's not programmable, so you cannot set it up to be turned on two hours before bed time for example like my other ones. Instructions are incomplete and difficult to match with the buttons on the purifier. If the smell doesn't go away, the purifier goes back. I have two other different brand purifiers, I have to admit that they are nosier, but don't smell.
Expensive box, cheap contents.

Reviewer: S. Vaughan, Chicago, IL
We bought this filter for our new apartment after several weeks of feeling terrible (congestion, puffy watery eyes, feeling tired, coughing, etc.) because we knew there was some sort of non-hazardous mold and dust combo at the root of it. This puppy looked like it'd do the trick, and for 6 days, we felt awesome. It worked very well! But on day seven the rotator inside this thing literally fell off the axle and ceased to work any longer. We were unable to fix it ourselves, and we found that once we opened up the packaging, we owned it. No returns were permitted, but we were allowed to pay for S+H back to the manufacturer for them to fix it. [...] The problem I have with this item is that the price is six times our cheap filters', and Alen's ghetto manufacturer hotline and inability to provide us with a new, working filter, indicates it shouldn't be worth this much.

UPDATE: Alan (the manufacturer) never called us back after we left 5 messages. We threw our $600 filter into landfil.
Too expensive, and replacement filters are expensive...BUT...

Reviewer: ivorycassiopeia,
OK, so it costs a lot of money. They say you should replace the HEPA/Carbon A375 UV filter every 6 months (for $49 each). That's a bit excessive. However, the filter is pretty quiet at high speed (which I leave it on all day and all night long because my dust/dust mite allergies are THE WORST). I have one in my bedroom and one in my living room that run constantly on high speed. I have no idea whether the UV lights do anything or not, but I will try anything to help reduce my allergies. It is easy on the eyes and has a nice display, and it doesn't take up too much room. I also did research when I bought these (about 7 months ago) and they scored highly in air filter tests. If they were less expensive, I would definitely recommend them.
