Spinoff Does anyone have the Sharper Image Air Purifier?

Is it worth the money? I've heard they're great, but they're so expensive. Any thoughts? Is ti worth getting the one that also kills germs?

I have a small HEPA unit, but it doens't tell you when the filter is full and I just get frustrated and don't use it.

If it is the sharper image one that you have, maybe you want to sell it?

Re: Spinoff Does anyone have the Sharper Image Air Purifier?

I have done a ton of research on air purifiers! I tried another purifier called Ionic Pro which is a cheaper version of the Sharper Image one. It worked great, but I returned it after reading very negative things about it. Every report, such as consumer reports, etc., said it is not good because it emits ozone? into the air which is not good to breathe in. It says that it could make asthma worse for some people. I would look for reviews before purchasing it. I figured my son is only two, I didn't need to hurt his poor little lungs with a purifier that lets out ozone. I have read that purifiers with hepa filters are better for catching allergens. Definitely do some research. And when you decide what to purchase go to amazon.com, they are much cheaper than what is in stores, and as of last week it was free shipping on purifiers. Good luck.

Re: Spinoff Does anyone have the Sharper Image Air Purifier?

Well my allergy doctor a few years ago told me to run out and buy on that minute....he also told me I had to move out of my mom's house because she has cats...

Since they're what, $400, I couldn't run out and buy one. I'm going to look into the reviews. Hopefully I'll be able to afford one when I start working...

I have them, and they are great. I read too about the ozone thing and my doctor said it has to be in a small room and you can smell it too if it is emitting it. they are made for wide open rooms not for small quarters. but they work awesome!!! easy clean up too!

We have one and it's so worth it. Once you get it, you'd not be disappointed. And one of the best things is that if anything ever goes wrong with it, you can bring it back to the store and they will give you a new one, no questions asked. In the event, that the one you have is not available, and they have a newer model, you just have to pay whatever difference it is. Like if the new model is $450 and the one you got was $400, you'd only have to pay $50.

They don't all emit ozone, do they?

What kind fo range do they have? For it to work, would I keep my bedroom door closed (small room), or would it work with the door open, on 3 rooms?

I think it's worth it. We have one in every room. I have 3 dogs, and a cat, you can't smell anything in the house.

the new ones dont emit ozone so they say. Im not sure of the exact range it may be listed in its description but you def dont want to keep the door closed, I have it in the landing upstairs for our 3 bedrooms and then 1 downstairs in our living room. all in open areas. wait till you see how much dust it collects!!!!!!

Do you have the one with the UV light that kills germs or whatever?

How often do you have to clean it?
