Homedics 5-in-1 UV-C Air Purifier - 360-Degree HEPA Filter for 170 Sq Ft Air Purifiers for Bedroom and

I created a "smoke room" in my home and wanted the room to remain as clear of smoke smell as possible. I ordered this product based on the other reviews. It came packaged nicely. There was no damage to the product. It was ready to use out of the box. I turned the unit on high before beginning to smoke. It was a little loud but tolerable. After smoking I set the timer to 4 hours. When I came back into the room, I could barely smell the smoke. I leave it on most times (with the fan on low) so that the air is continuously being cleaned. When I come in to smoke, I turn it on high and then set the timer to 6 hours. I don't have to worry about it until I turn it on before bed so that it is cleaning constantly. Read more

This air purifier has made all the difference for my sleep. I have allergies that have kept me from sleeping but with this air purifier, I have experienced a huge reduction of allergy attacks. This air purifier was very easy to set up and runs VERY quietly. I am glad I got it. Read more

A friend told me it was amazing to have one of these at home. I mostly use it in my room and allergies and headaches have gone away. When cleaning it every weekend I can realize how much dust and fur it collects even tho I sweep everyday. It also makes the room feel fresh since the air is constantly circulating (keep doors closed) Read more

During the lockdown we did an extended cleaning in our apartment and discovered to our horror a large patch of mold behind a corner cabinet in the bedroom. After a deep cleaning of the corner and a removal of the cabinet, we knew that mold spores must be in the room and could re-establish itself unless, besides more cleaning, they were filtered out of the air. Also we didn’t have the room for a large filter. This air purifier is a reasonable size and a reasonable price. The UV in this unit is advertised to kill mold spores besides other airborne pathogens such as viruses. So far it’s been three months and no mold has returned. Since the mold probably established itself over the winter, we’ll see the real results by next year. Regarding the other attributes of this unit, we have had a number of air purifiers over the years and this one is probably the most basic: Noise) It’s not loud at the lowest setting but other air purifiers that cost more are quieter. We can sleep thru the lowest setting, the next speed gets too loud for us at night. Other air purifiers are also too loud at the next setting as well. Settings) This purifier has very basic settings. The off timer works perfectly but you must start it yourself every day. Unlike other purifiers, this doesn’t have a built in air quality sensor. We miss and don’t miss the air quality sensor. The Coway air purifiers for example have a Eco mode that shuts the purifier off if it doesn’t detect dust or smells. That’s a great feature for even less noise at night but you are at the mercy of what the manufacturer thinks is a bad smell, the Coway people don’t like cooking smells where the Sharp people don’t like body odors so the purifiers often go full speed loudly when automatically set off. It’s nice to have a purifier that doesn’t do this. Light) The blue setting button lights are not overly bright unlike other air purifiers, you can sleep with them on, however the night light on this unit is rather bright for a small bedroom. Ionizer) We don’t detect an ozone smell from this unlike the Coway which sometimes makes an ozone smell. Efficiency) We haven’t had this long enough to make a solid judgement but it does reduce pollen enough for me that I can tell the difference between it being on or off this past spring. Overall, we can recommend this purifier. Read more

I bought this air purifier because I was starting to have congestion and throat irritaiton from all the wildfire smoke this year, it made a noticeable difference the first time I used it. I wasn't having to constantly drink water to talk in meetings and my throat no longer hurt at the end of the day. The air in my office smells cleaner than the rest of the house, and it's quiet enough that I never had to turn it off to hear others on zoom. I ended up buying a second one for my bedroom, highly recommend! Read more

I’ve had this for a couple of weeks now and I’m very happy with this product. I’ve noticed a big change in the air quality of my room. Prior to this product I noticed a lot of dust particles floating in the air (seen in my live security camera). Now I only see a few occasionally. The noise level is quite low. I use the third highest fan level. It’s like a fan on low. I recommend this product. Read more
