No and no. The smell comes back after a while especially on hot days and it smells very harshly of baby powder.

It will take the smoke Smell away. But it is not a fresh scent in my opinion. Will not make it smell Normal for a little while and you have to open your windows To let the fresh air in.

No. It is strictly an odor remover for the air....and it works great!!! Try Fabreeze for fabrics. It actually works too!

i think just the smell. but if you read the label of this product it should tell you what it does.most i think it says that it reduces harmful bacterias and chemicals but not remove. again,pls double check the label about what it claims. regards

It doesn't smell the best, but its not bad. I've used other solutions and they all have some type of smell. Would'nt want to smell it all day, but its ok for the short time you're using it.

It did at first a bit. But it calmed down. It may still smell if you put your head in the 'locker' sections and breath. If you set fire to the thing, then it is sure to smell. But be careful that you don't burn down your home in the process.

I received mine as a gift just yesterday. Very strong smell like I had just painted the entire bedroom. This was after the mattress had sat for 2 days to expand in another room in the house. I am hoping that someone can seriously tell me this odor goes away.

Some odors are harder to remove than others and stale [cigarette?] smoke is one of the hardest to eliminate but you're definitely on the right track! What really works to eliminate odors is the ozone emitting component of this air purifier and forget about charcoal and HEPA filtration. That said, this particular unit would probably do the job for you but it does not produce as much ozone as some of the other air purifiers which strictly rely on ozone to eliminate odors. I would go with one of the "ozone only" air purifiers; run it on high in UNOCCUPIED areas and moving it from room to room until the entire house has been treated. You might find you will need to re-treat some areas but depending on the length of time you run the purifier, it will eventually eliminate 100% of the odor - usually after one "treatment".

It goes away after some time. Ours no longer smells but it was a few months time before that happened. If you have a garage you could place it in to air it out for awhile or place it outside if you live in a warmer weather state.

I live in a non-smoking environment, but I do notice that there are still odors with this air purifier on. This isn't the most effective air purifier out there. So, don't expect too much from it.

unfortunately, no. this isn't an air freshner but a personal purifier. I'll tell you what it does help with. My co-worker is a HEAVY smoker and when she comes back from her smoke break, this purifier helps me to not smell the tobacco that lingers on her. It helps when someone wears too much perfume too.

I don't believe it will make the smell disappear. It will cover it up for a while.

I quit smoking a few years ago. If I did, I would smoke outside. The odor meter seems sensitive when I cook, so I think it would spike up, I'm not sure about deodorizing the air though. I think it would clean it of some particles, but perhaps not eliminate how stinky cig smoke is. I heard the Vapor cigs don't stink. Overall I like the product for pet dander and dust. The fan noise is soothing...The machine would be better than no machine if I/someone was smoking indoors. I hope you don't have loved ones who don't smoke living in your house or pets. Sorry to be a ninny. Maybe you're smoking fish: yes, I betcha after a while it would help with the smoked fish odor. I quit smoking a few years ago. If I did, I would smoke outside.

In my experience, no ionizer can FULLY eliminate that kind of smoke (I am also extremely sensitive to it). However, if the smoke smell is very fresh, it might help quite a bit to clear it up and prevent it from becoming permanent, although it may not fully take care of it. If you are trying to remove the odor from an item or a piece of furniture that has had long-term exposure, it will give only minor relief, although it can help a little under those circumstances. Depending on what you are trying to air out, you might benefit more fully from a full-sized ionizer, although this personal unit comes in handy in areas where you need it to be very portable, and/or you are unable to connect to AC power. (I like having both, according to the needs and circumstances of the moment.)

We are lucky to have none of those close by and our IQ Air is too new to tell. Our friends had a marihuana smoker next door. The IQ Air not only filtered out the smell, they had to change the filter only after 18 months.

It does. I have a neighbor that smokes...if I smell it I turn the fan to high and the smell goes away quickly. I used to be a heavy smoker, If you or a family member is a smoker I would keep it running all the time on medium or high, it would help a lot with keeping the smell out of upholstery, furniture clothes etc. have not tested this though.

We don't smoke, but it isn't meant to eliminate odors. Yes, the fan is definitely audible (but not distracting) and gets louder the higher you turn it up. It doesn't bother me when I sleep because it is "white" noise.

Yes it will although depending on what your smoking or vaping ;) there shouldn't be much smell at all. I however love mine and it works just as well as u think vape or no vape
