Cheap Air Purifiers

I'm on my third one already
I have 2 of these units and they seem to work well but I've had quite a few problems. I've already had 4 of them break down on me and Rabbit Air did replace them under warranty but they are very difficult to work with and I've spent about 0.00 on shipping to return their defective units. I guess my last straw with Rabbit Air was when the last time I sent defective units back they failed to mention that they were moving and told me to ship the units to their old address so Fedex Ground ended up charging extra to reroute the units. To sum it up, they work well when they work but if you have trouble good luck!
I see in some of these reviews that they paid return shipping. I asked them several times to pay for return shipping and they refused.

Really works. I wish I could afford more
I have tried several air cleaners throughout the years, Sharp, Oreck, Hunter, Honeywell, Delonghi and have never been too impressed. All that changed with my Rabbit Air. I love this machine.

When I bought this unit I was serious about getting a good air cleaner. I compared this and several others and came down to choosing between this and a blueAIR unit. After looking at filter costs for the blueAIR I decided to take a gamble on the slightly less widely known Rabbit Air. I have not been disappointed.

It is quiet and after a month or two of use, dust and odors have greatly improved. The design is smart, with minimal electrical use, and a clever pre-filter arrangement that extends the life and freshness of the main filters resulting in low filter costs. As others have mentioned, the dust/odor sensors are questionable. Sometimes it seems to react to dust or odor, but other times it seems to be reacting to ghosts!

I am actually up to three of these units now, but need another for another area. My only complaint is that these units are pricey, but like they say, you get what you pay for. When you add up the filter costs for other models this one comes out ahead within two years even against the cheap units you can find on the shelves at Wal-Mart.

excellent air cleaner
I have two bluair cleaners and though they are good and top rated, they are huge and not attractive so remain in basement, out of the way, locations. These Rabbit Air cleaners not only do an excellent job of keeping the air fresh, they increase the cleaning process when they detect allergens or contaminants in the air. This allows one to know what is coming in that needs to be cleaned so one can sometimes track down a source and eliminate or reduce that source. It is very easy to clean with the washable filters and one can see if one is getting a considerable amount of dust or certain other elements that might be in the air. Cleaning the sensor with vacuum is also easy. I do not know how long the sensor lasts, at some point this might need to be replaced and I have not found any indicator that lets one know how long that might be. However as an air cleaner it is quiet even in the highest setting, not silent but definitely not too noisy. In normal mode it is silent and it does have a night time mode, special mode in allergy seasons to specifically detect allergens, and a clean mountain air mode. If this is in a kitchen or area one knows has high debris or bad air to clean, set it to super mode and it works full force until the air is clean, then turns itself down to normal mode which is silent but still working.

I have used the Sharper Image Ionizer and others but this is far superior though must admit bigger so not invisible in place. Still it is superior. In winter I use this in combination with Venta air washers to humidify the air and have two air cleaners working. this and the Venta. In summer Venta puts too much humidity in the air for my region so only the Rabbit Air and the BioGS does seem to reduce the germs in the air. Often when I have guests with flu I tend to get it as well but with this, I do not get it. Additionally, during flu season when I come in having slight symptoms of flu and remain in the room with the BioGS, my symptoms are gone by morning so they do not just keep circulating in the air for me to continue to contaminate myself with the germs.

Best of breed for certain.

RabbitAir BioGS NOT WORTH THE $$$
SAVE YOUR MONEY!! DOES NOT WORK AS DESCRIBED! I bought this air purifier about 6 months ago because my son has asthma. Read many reviews all raving about the product. All the reviews made great claims- a lot of money but worth it because it improved air quality so much. Some reviewers said they had asthma and since getting this purifier their symptoms have greatly improved. Other people mentioned how many pets they had and how the air purifier was able to keep up with the hair, dust and odor. So I decided to spend the extra money and get what I thought was going to be an exceptional air purifier and I COULD NOT BE MORE DISAPPOINTED. I only have one dog and it can't keep up with that. WE HAVE HARDLY SEEN ANY IMPROVEMENT IN AIR QUALITY, DUST ETC. We probably could have bought an air purifier for less than half the price and gotten the same results. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! Rabbit Air BioGS (model 582A - covers 780 sq. ft.) Ultra-Quiet Air Purifier w/ Germicidal Sterilization - Low Maintenance - Washable Filters!, Chrome Silver

great!
i've had many air purifiers before and I'm most satisfied with this one. I've heard about Rabbit Air many times before I knew I was going to get a good product. I got the 780 sq feet one and it does the job of 2 rooms really well. We have smokers in the house in a designated area and it does a fabulous job taking out the odor through the whole apartment. I take comfort in knowing that it will eliminate odor as well as allergens and bacteria in the air as we have an older cat so it's good for pets too. The only peeve I have is that it's pretty much on the big size, but due to its sleek design it's not too big a deal. It is not super thin as I expected but still, sexy and nice looking.
