My wife requested that we purchase this air filter to reduce allergens and dust in our (partially-built) home's air. I was skeptical about the unit due to the cost and several reviews (at various vendors) citing noise and poor fan bearing performance; appealing to me was the size, shape, and ability to wall-mount it. So, with a little goading from her, we decided to accept the risk and try it out.
It is an impressive little unit! We run it on setting 2, which moves quite a bit of air in near-silence, when we are home. Settings 3 and 4 are fairly loud, but I think that is unavoidable given the massive amount of airflow these settings generate versus the size of the unit. The unit is now in constant use (again, almost exclusively at setting 2 with the ionizer active) for over three weeks without any change in performance, so I expect we will not have any problems with it in the short run.

Must buy for allergy sufferers.,

I suffer from seasonal allergies. We put this unit in our bedroom and switch it on low speed (you hardly know it is running) for about three hours when retiring. I am experiencing an amazing improvement in sleep quality because my breathing is improved and I don't wake up sneezing every few hours. I highly recommend this model for people with allergies.

It might be very powerful but very noisy. I could not stand it so I returned it to vendor.
