Does anyone have any experience using this to control/suppress smoking odors? If so, how well would you say it works for that?

This is a beautiful lamp and it creates a really nice atmosphere in the room. When it comes to any kind of odor control, I really don't notice anything. I also heard that it may clear up allergies, which I didn't notice either. But, for esthetic reasons, I would highly recommend it. It's absolutely beautiful.

We cannot Answer this question directly, because, We do not Smoke in this House any Longer. The Quality of the Air with regards to Ion's & Molecules in the Air & Purifying does Seem Better. The Best Solution would be to turn one Small area or a room into a smoke area & begin testing the Product in this One Area or Room. All Smoke REGARDLESS is HARMFUL Period. Smoke coming INTO the Body or Around the Body is very Harmful to the Lungs & Skin of a HUMAN Being. Sincerely, CPT Scott.

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.

i'm not sure. we use this in the shoe closet to neutralize and as well as near pet areas. smoke smell is often absorbed into fabrics of clothes or furniture, i do not believe it could help with that. perhaps an air cleaner that filters the air and circulates cleaner air in the room? we have one and it works well, especially when cooking.

No. It just works. And it does. I bought a car where the previous owner was a smoker and it worked great clearing out the lingering odor.

I honestly don't know. ...We are non-smokers. It's worth a try though! But cigarette smoke gets into eeeeverything...carpet, curtains, furniture, clothes. Thus, it may help with filtering the air a bit but depending on where the smoke smell has accumulated, it may be a losing battle.

It works on cigarette smoke so I think it might work on locker room odor depending on the size of the space. For deep odor cleaning I have heard that OdorBan works well. It believe it has products for surface cleaning.

I am using the fan for woodburning pyrography and it works beautifully. I try to keep the fan as close to the work as possible and it removes quite a bit of the smoke and odor, not all but quite a bit. I used to stink up the whole room, now much less.

It should work quite well. I put one of the packages in my SUV, on the floor next to the driver's seat. I do smoke, but there is much less of an odor in my truck now, after about a month, and I imagine the smell was stronger than what drifts into an apartment. It hasn't had to be set out in the sun to reactivate yet, but so far, I've used it to combat a urine smell from when my cat had a UTI and a few accidents, and then put it in my truck. My daughter says it makes a big difference. Hope that helps!

It works for me. It is like neutralize the smell and make a no smell environment. It does not remove the odor right away.

I've tried it for mild cigarette odor and it worked well. I would imagine it would work for a heavier smoke odor also.

I don't smoke . I've heard others who do say they're happy with it. It has a very effective ozone generator. People in the room I have it in come in my room and their clothes smell as If they had them hanging out doors.

Even good home air cleaners like these are only going to be moderately effective when used in a very smokey environment. They will, to some extent, re-radiate whatever they have been filtering. Tobacco smoke is particularly difficult to remove as it permeates all surfaces and absorbent material like clothing, upholstery, drapes etc.

My husband smokes, and the one that seems to work the best for us is the Odor Elimination filter. It's got yellow packaging.

We used ours last summer driving through areas of smoke from fires in our crew cab pickup. My husband has asthma and is very sensitive to smoke and it worked great. It also works for pet odors or fumes from traffic. We were very pleased with it and the price was good.

2 would work better than one and this would help. For smoke though, I'd recommend Odoban. It's more expensive but more effective for heavy smoke smell.

I sit in a room with my husband while he smokes cigars, and as soon as I turn it on, it eliminates pretty much all of the smoke and the smell, which to me is pretty amazing, Since you are in a whole separate area, I would start it up before the dinner hour and leave it running throughout, then shut it down at closing. I have heard this is what one would use to eliminate cigarette smoke Oder from previously owned cars and it is very successful too!
