I use mine in a 10x12 office and enjoy the device. It has several speeds and can run very quietly when needed. Excellent clean air feel and gets rid of odors efficiently.

I put this in the bathroom as a test and noticed there is never any odor.
However, the sucking power on the unit doesn't appear to be very strong. If you put your fingers in front of the intake, you'll probably think it's not even working. (although it will show you it's working if you put a small piece of paper such as a receipt in front of it)
Also, remember this is not true HEPA. It gets 99% of airborne particles, whereas HEPA gets 99.97%. So, if you have 10,000 particles, this will miss 100 of them. True HEPA will only miss 3. I don't know if it matters that much, but, if I was rich, I would probably get a true HEPA with better suction.
For someone on a budget though, this is probably a good starter unit.

I had one of these previously and it was cheaper to buy a new one than new filters, etc., so I just bought another one. It's working great and cleans the air well. I use it at my office and my immediate co-workers and I stay healthier because of it. Thank you Holmes! I LOVE THIS AIR CLEANER - it's quiet & a real work horse.
