I prefer this one because I had both of these and the Germ Guardian was a whole lot better for my home! We have a real big dust problem being by a oil drill rig and allergies since we do live out in the country and hands down the Germ Guardian has cut my dust down a whole lot more than the Honeywell did! I also love the UV-C light technology on this as well. With kids always coming and going at our home sometimes they come in sick well it use to make us sick after they left but with this UV-C I can honestly tell you we have not been sick since we've bought these! They work great compared to the Honeywell and even compared to several other brands I have tried in the past! My son has bad allergies so he use to be always red eyes, sniffling and itchy but since I bought a second one and put it in his room it covers a good amount of space so his allergies aren't nearly as bad as what they were before! I hope this helps you out into making the decision on what to use and buy for your home! Good luck!

It'll save you money from the Honeywell in a couple of years b/c the filters need less changing and it uses much less electricity. It's also quieter and has an air-freshening ionizer that the Honeywell doesn't, in addition to the HEPA.

The proxxon is quieter then the competition that I have used but I haven't used the one you mention. Also, you mention cordless...there is a big difference between cordless and A/C corded units.

Yes, this is the case. One can buy the PreMax PreFilter for $69 from the IQAir Website. Go there and save!http://www.iqair.com/support/replacementfilters

We ordered the Professional, but received the everyday model. We reordered and the same unit came, so we just returned the unit. Sorry, but I have no answer for you as to compare of the two.

As far as I can understand, the only difference is in the number of speed settings. PRO has 4, PLUS has 3.

It's for one filter but it can last a long time, depends on its use and where you have it. I have had other air purifiers, less expensive, and did not have the same relief as I do with the IQ air, so the price has been worth it.

Very different products. One is the professional line (designer) and the other is more of the home product. The pro line seems more robust, the battery last longer, and is much closer to the regular corded models. That's the one I would go with.

By purchasing the Plus model you will get the V5 filter included in the box. The plus model only costs $50 more than the non-Plus model, but purchasing the V5 filter separately will cost you $99. So I think it's a relative bargain to get the first V5 filter for only $50. The V5 filter is one of the main differentiators between the IQAir unit and lower priced Asian units from Whirlpool, Sharp and Winix, which only offer very minimal protection against odor and chemicals. The V5 filter should last at least two years, maybe longer if you don't smoke or have a lot of pets. I would not spend close to $900 on an air purifier and then eliminate one of the most valuable filters in the unit to save $50.

I am not sure what the difference is either, but they are priced the same on Hoover's website. I'm using the Pet Plus because I have dogs, but I got a small bottle of the professional with my machine, and can't tell much difference between the two. Hoover also markets a 2X Plus Professional, which claims to be twice as strong,but is cheaper. I'm agreeing with the other poster that it may just be marketing. Sorry, that's probably not much help. I would probably go with the best price, though.

I run mine in the bedrooms just at night. It knocks down the particulate level to a good air quality level quickly, so if I'm not in the bedroom, I see no reason to run it. I have an air quality monitor to measure that, so it's objective. We have a different brand of air purifier (IQ Air Health Pro Plus) in our main living space, and that one is on a low to medium setting almost all day. I turn it off or way down at night and rev it up to high if we have poor outdoor air quality or if I can see that the air quality in the house is poor via the monitor. Life if much better since I got two of these Honeywells and the IQ Air. I run mine in the bedrooms just at night.

I have used both but to be fair this one is larger than the HEPA versions I've used in the past. That said we have allergies and mild asthma and two dogs and a cat to which we have allergies. The symptoms are not evident when the purifier is on and no asthma attacks evident. The maintenance is easier and less expensive. I am very happy.

I love my Honeywell humidifieir. I had spent almost 200 on an Air O Swiss one and wish I would have ordered this one first. It did the whole apartment. I would order the filters when you put in order.

I've used both and they clean equally well, in my opinion. However, the Pet Plus seems to have more deodorizer- a stronger scent, which I liked.

I don't have the gold, but I've researched it and they both seem like top-flight machines. My Pro is fantastic and I have a blast with it. It boils down to what you're looking for and how detailed a machine you want. The Pro is very detail oriented. The Gold, from what I've seen of people using it, is a very focused, get in and go machine. Not the answer you were hoping for, I'm sure, but it's the best I've got. This is a great hobby and however you may start you will find the right machine for your needs over time.
