Does it get rid of kitchen smoke...that's what I need. My kitchen doesn't have an exhaust fan and every time I cook it smokes up the house.

Yes it does. I don't have an exhaust fan either, so this takes care of it. Diana D.

We set ours on a cutting board, on the stove, under the exhaust hood, while we use it indoors. It is not smokeless. :>)

Very little smoke leaks out. With my vent hood running, I never noticed a smoky smell in the house and it didn't set off the smoke alarm. The amount of smoke that leaks is about the same as a recently snuffed out candle.

No. However if you don't have any kind of ventilation (recirculating or outside) if you cook smokey/smelly things your house will get smokey and smell. That is true of any range.

It could produce a lot of smoke if allowed to really heat up, but as a cook I heat to the point of light smoke then add the food, so using it inside without a vent isn't an issue.

No, roasted bean exhaust and smoke goes out of the unit directly. You will need to run it below your range exhaust, outside, or near an open window.

I think you might have a defective unit. I really don't do much to clean mine and there is very little smoke unless it's the type of pizza thatyou are cooking. My pizzas are pretty plain gf with not a lot on them. I'm sorry that I can't tell you more. (too much oil maybe?

I think that it would not eliminate all the smells rising from cooking on the stove. It will eliminate some smells going up the vent and touching the filtered area.

I do just fine with no window. The window probably gets moist or foggy with the smoke anyways. As long as the the temp is good.

Smoke detectors: Yes, but it takes ALOT of smoke to cause that, have fans circulating air in the room and it will help it keep from building up. No to the sticky residue, that mostly depends upon the solution you are using. Stick with the recommended fog and you should be fine, same for food.

We have a wood stove that is smoky. I would say that the results are variable depending on how active the source of smoke is. It eliminate smoky smells very well, but can be overwhelmed if there is a lot of smoke. Sometimes it is better to open the door.

This is true. We have had the smoker for about 6 years. We open our garage door and set the Bradley just inside the opening, out of the wind. Then the garage smells like smoked meat when we are done. We don't mind, but others may.

I really can't help on this. We don't have a smoke issue. And we are really happy with the 9500. Effectively NO dust build up, occasionally the yellow and only once the red lights came on indicating odor or dust. The unit is quiet and effective. Both have Plazmawave.

I get plenty of smoke without the smoke generator. There is a nice smoke ring on all the meats, so far. An add on shelf that collapses or is easily removed would be a nice feature.

If you meant "bad" smoking smell, I would say "yes" it works to eradicate smoking smell from the air. My father smokes and unless I'm right in his presence when he's doing it, I don't smell it. I would say "yes." In general, yes, it works well for that. Pet smells, too, by the way. I have a dog, it doesn't smell in her room. Cuts down on the dust all through the (small) house. I'm glad I invested in one!

I recently moved mine from one side of the room to another, into a corner of my living room that seems to harbor cigarette smoke. I did not do this intentionally, I was actually trying to Feng Shui my apartment and needed an earth element there, so I was absolutely shocked when it made such a drastic difference! I smoke in the dining side of my dining/living room combo and watch tv from the aforementioned corner. It DEFINITELY has an impact on the air quality there! I'm on this page because I'm thinking of getting another for my bedroom so I can breathe cleaner air as I sleep.

Thanks everyone for you comments. I have a carbon monoxide detector right out from my stove. We have also installed a fan over top of the unit. I guess it can't burn the fumes fast enough like gordyh was talking. If it gets worse will have a teck check it out. Again I would like to thank you all. Didn't think I would get a reply.
