Hamilton Beach Air Purifier For Home With 2 TrueAir EverLasting Reusable Filters For Medium Rooms Up To 827

I bought this for an outdoor aviary to help keep the feather dust down. It works great! The filters are easy to access and clean. I clean them on a weekly basis, because of the environment. If they were in the house I would probably clean them once a month or so. Super quiet too on medium! Read more

These are great and fairly quiet. It’s a good size to fit in the corner of a room. I still notice some dust but overall seems to work well. Read more

Note - I use this in my kitchen because I don't really cook. People who cook a lot should NOT use this in the kitchen, according to the instruction manual. I have a cat, and that means cleaning the litter box and throwing away wet food cans. I take my garbage out daily, but I have a crazy sensitive nose and hate the smell of garbage. So I use this air purifier next to the garbage can in my kitchen. It's small and sits on the floor next to the can. I rarely, if ever, smell the garbage can. I run it on low and you can hear it a tiny bit, but it's barely noticeable to me. I have another large air purifier from this company next to the litter box too, and it works so well I wanted a smaller version for the kitchen. I like that one of the filters can be cleaned and reused because that cuts down on waste. This is a very nice unit for a smaller space! Read more

I have had this now for more than 7 months. I ordered the 'accompanying' filters with it to make sure I had some as this was replacing one I had for more than 10 years. Turned out although recommended, they were not the correct size and were for the old model which they don't make anymore. With some reading from the instruction booklet, it was noted that these filters are designed to be cleaned, and that there is a light that will come on when that is in fact needed. So good there. So this is a much bigger unit with filters on both sides. The air vents out of the top, which okay - works and I guess is good. I liked the side vent because I placed this on the table by my bed and had the fan blow towards the bed. This new unit has a high pitched whine to it which is awful at night. The other unit also acted for me as a noise machine so that I did not hear my hubs snoring and was not constantly woken all night with it. Because this new unit has the whine, and not the fan noise it really is quite annoying on its own. I have placed it on the floor and the sound is more muffled at least. The fan itself does me no good blowing to the ceiling. But this is not the worst of it - there are no knobs for on or off, no switch. Only flat buttons on the top in the center of the air circulator that are 'heat' activated from your fingers. It worked well for the first week and ever since I have to fight, pressing and literally rubbing my fingers on the sheet to heat it up enough to trigger the on button, and in the morning short of throwing it off a cliff I have to sit there and press and press and press and eventually it shuts off, but it I do it to rapidly, it starts right back up. I suppose as of this morning I will just be pulling the plug, then only having to fight to turn the darned thing on at night. The fact that this cost 125 dollars at the time I can tell you that it is not worth the hassle, the noise or the money. Read more

So far I'm like this air purifier. I haven't had it long enough to see how much dust it pulls in. But here's what I do know.. This system is set up so you can clean the filters, instead of replacing! (It shows to just use a vacuum.) That will save us a lot of money, not having to buy filters. There will be a light that comes on when it's time to clean the filters. Easy. Says once a year. We have a lot of in house foot traffic making dust. It'll be interesting if we need to do that more often. Then there's carbon filters that do need to be replaced more often. I haven't priced those out yet. It has 3 speeds. Low doesn't feel like it's working, it's so quite. We put it on medium to start. There was so much air flow that it felt like windows were open on a breezy day! Cool, full room air moving. Drafty. So we moved it down to low speed. That medium speed seems like it'll be great having it on during the warmer days of summer. It pulls the air in on both sides, which is where the filters are. The top is where the air is pushed back out. There's 4 vents that face each direction. So it's moving the air everywhere. It really circulated the air in the room. This room has a 10' ceiling. It seems very powerful and a good design. (Compared to others we have.) There's also a timer. We leave ours on 24/7. The cord was long enough for us to place it where we wanted it. We're glad to have this Hamilton Beach money saving air filter system. Really does seem like they put a good system together with this unit. UPDATE: We've had ours running for 3 months now. A flashing light went on. It was not the "vacuum the filter" light. It was change the filter light. I vacuumed the black carbon filter in hopes the light would go out. It did not. The white filters didn't look "dirty". There maybe dust in where I can't see it. But I've seen dirtier filters. So I don't know why the lights on for replacement. We've had it running on low 24/7 for just 3 months. Now I'm looking to buy new filters and can not find them! Read more
