How does this compare to Honeywell AirGenius5 Air Cleaner/Odor Reducer, HFD320?

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!

Yes! I bought this air purifier because there is a lot of dust in my apt. and had to take care of someone's cat for 5 months. I was sneezing and sniffling for a few weeks after the cat moved in. Air purifier made a huge difference! I turned it on 12 hours at a time. I usually give it a few hours rest and then turn it back on again. I am seriously thinking about buying a second one for the bedroom. I think turning it off a few hours helped with the filters. I used it for a year before the filter light started to blink.

We bought two of the Fellowes air purifiers (the 200 and 100 models) specifically because we learned our toddler had a minor cat allergy and we hoped it could help. Completely anecdotal evidence, but I really like it and think they have been working well. I would definitely recommend the 200 over the 100 (better airflow design, actually more compact/smaller, quieter on lowest setting yet stronger fan on higher settings).We also bought a robotic vacuum to clean everyday to try to help with the dander, and I think that has been a really big help as well. Good luck!

I think it does well on odors, but my alen 350 does better. This is quieter tho, so I prefer it for my bedroom. Haven't tried it on car fumes.

Hi Steven: I have a unit here in my shop - on the packing it says it captures VOCs. I know the unit comes with two permanent, washable filters - the prefilter can be replaced with their - but the user manual seems to suggest you should buy their optional odor and gas reducing prefilter ($20 for a 3 month filter) if you want to filter VOCs - the manual says: "The Honeywell optional pre-filter is compatible with all AirGenius models. Its design compliments the ifD filter by trapping larger particles, reducing odours and removing harmful gases and volatile organic compounds from the air that passes through the filter. For maximum efficiency, change the pre-filter every 3 months." Now I cant tell from the literature if this filter traps all VOCs or specifically if it traps acetone or ABS plastics. You might want to check out this info on the honeywell web page - http://www.airgenius.ca/air-purifiers/air-purifier-features/ - you can find the manual here - http://www.airgenius.ca/air-purifiers/customer-support/owner-manuals/ - info about the odor reducing filter is here - http://www.airgenius.ca/air-purifiers/buy-honeywell-air-purifiers/honeywell-odour-gas-reducing-prefilter-2-pack-hrf-k2c-deedCAN/ - or you can call the honeywell customer help line at 1-800-477-0457 Hope that helps - good luck!

Greetings, do a search on Amazon for: ASIN #B002XJHGA8. I recommend the Honeywell brand filter over the generic one.

How is this product vs Airfree Onix 3000 Ozone Free Home Air Purifier. I want something that will work and not have to really replace filters. mainly need it for the pet hair and dust in the rooms.

The 4930 cost more, is 5" smaller, and the controls are arranged differently. Other than that, I don't see much of a difference in the two. If you are looking for a model that will circulate the air in the room with some efficiency, keep it cool, and has simple to understand buttons, the cheaper of the two will work for you. I use mine in my masterbed room and that's a good 11' x 19'. Mine has kept my room well cooled during the hot summer months and keeps it cool. It works best in an area on the floor that it won't get knocked over by rowdy kids or out of control pets. Though my cats bumped me into mine and I knocked my over and no damage done. Works perfectly like the day I bought it. You just don't want to knock over any fan no matter what and place it on a firm level surface for best stability. Just my words of wisdom there, or call it the voice of experience. Save the extra cash and go for the model #4443 I'm sure you won't be terribly disappointed with the purchase.

If you go to www.air-purifier-power.com there are detailed reviews of both.

The same model in a different color says 300 square feet, and also has a more detailed description. IONIC AIR PURIFIER HF200 300sq feet (XJ2000) Brand: Heaven Fresh It's also four dollars cheaper and a dollar less on shipping - a five dollar savings if you don't need the fake wood-grain color cabinet.

Honeywell is a good brand but be careful you aren't looking at old models that are hard to get filters for.

The biggest difference is the size/design of the systems and the cost/life expectancy of the replacement filters. The Coway AP-1012GH is for 256 sq ft and has a CADR (clean air delivery rate) of 165. The carbon odor filter is suppose to be changed every year and the HEPA filter every 3 years. The Coway AP-1512HH is for 326 sq ft. and has a CADR of 210. The carbon odor filter is suppose to be changed every 6 months and the HEPA filter every year.

Unfortunately I was unable to find the Honeywell #7 filters. The The Filtrete™ Dust and Pollen Reduction Filter attracts and captures large allergens like dust particles from the air passing through the filter. Carries a 600 Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) and lasts up to 3 months.

Filters last different times depending on which one. Yes they are expensive. The most expensive is the main HyperHEPA filter which is around $200 and it lasts the longest. The PreMax is about $125 and lasts the shortest. The V5 is optional-it just absorbs odors-and lasts in the middle somewhere I think, it is around $100. The length the filters last is kind of governed by the unit itself. If you have it on more often, it will use it up faster. If you have it on higher speed, it will use up the life faster. You can scroll through the display for remaining hours on each filter. There is no stopping you from using filters longer or resetting the filter life at any time if you want to, but I always replace the filters according to the unit telling me to. To give an idea of life, I think the HyperHEPA will start out around 4000 hrs. Looking at mine right now, it shows the PreMax at 599 hrs, V5 at 2057hrs and HyperHEPA at 1599 hrs. It ABSOLUTELY has helped me sleeping and not waking up with a stuffy nose every morning. I would buy it again even if it was 3x the price. One tip is they make a prefilter prefilter called the PF40 (I know it sounds redundant but bear with me) which is for really dusty conditions. You can put the prefilter screen on the bottom at the air intake and this will pretty much double the life of the actual pre-filter. You can then change the filter screen as the kit comes with I think 5 of them and reset your pre-filter timer.

No knowledge of the Honeywell...the Lasko does what I wanted and oscillates and has a filter of sorts if you want. Sounds like white noise during the night but is good to block out noise. Great for the price.

If u are capable of removing and replacing robots, I'm not rel impressed with the smell removal, if smell is a big issue for u look elsewhere. I hear with some of these cheap filters the carbon gets settled and creates channels that allow unfiltered air to be expelled out of your room.
