Customer Reviews:
Good but not clear about safety of ionizer
The filter seems to do a good job. It is not nearly as quiet as some reviewers mention, the sound is quite audible at night, but not irritatingly so.

The ionizer switch lights up just as much as the built-in "night light." Ionizers are known to create ozone (see Consumer Reports.) The manual says not to use the ionizer if you suffer from asthma. Put all these together and it sounds like the ionizer is not completely safe. I recommend not using the ionizer when the room is occupied, or only for short periods of time. If it has been on for an extended period of time, let fresh air into the room before spending some time in the room.

Compact Air Cleaner
This small air cleaner is best for very small areas. It sits atop my cat's litter box located in the bathroom and does an adequate job of controlling litter box odors between changes. It can also be mounted on a wall if you don't have a place for it to sit. Replacement filters are relatively expensive at $42.00. It's fairly quiet on low and has strong airflow. I think it's a too noisy and too small for the average bedroom. Permanent filter doesn't really mean permanent however. Permanent filters do become clogged over time and simply must be replaced. It's a decent little unit for very small areas.......recommended!!!!

Why Is An Air Ionizer Important?

When looking to lower pollution levels in the air, you can use an air ionizer to create the kind of negative ions that will change the polarity of the particles in it. This causes the particles to become too large to stay in the air so they fall harmlessly to the ground.

The air purifying device works with the aid of ionization, which has the ability to remove even the finest of particles. Smoke, smog, viruses, bacteria, smoke, and even chemical fumes - all of these can be caught by an ionizer. The ionizer circulates air throughout the entire building that tackles the pollution in each room.

ionization isn't exactly a versatile piece of technology; it often takes a bit more than just that to bring out the best in a purifier. One of the challenges you may have to face is that the contraption isn't too helpful with particles that have been removed from the air, and often you might need to clean them up by yourself. It is rather impotent against irritating smells. Even certain...
