Product Description

Today's need for air purifiers is the result of increased consumer awareness. The need to clean the air from common pollutants such as smoke, dust and fumes is becoming second nature. The increase in respiratory illnesses as well as allergies to airborne particles such as pollen and pet dander are on the rise. Bacteria also present a rising problem that our air purifiers' help reduces. Amcor accomplishes this through the use of advanced technologies like: HEPA Filters; Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) and patented Ionizers.

I recently bought two AMCOR air purifiers, the AM-90, and this purifier, the AM-40. I was impressed with both, AMCOR makes cheap but solid products. Usually good air purifiers run hundreds of dollars but these purifiers get the job done for much less. If your on a budget, and need a dusty basement made breathable (what I used the AM-90 for) it works for that. I used the AM-40 in my bedroom. I did not notice as much of effect as the AM-90, but the filters in the AM-40 did pick up dust, and the air is a little easier to breath in the bedroom. For a big room or a really dusty room, I would spend the extra 50 bucks and get the AM-90.

Just as a side note, I was unable to find the square footage the AM-90 covered until after I bought the product, when I was reading the manual. Its 400 sq feet. The AM-40 is a much smaller purifier, it works for a small to midsize room.

4.0 out of 5 stars Seems to work well, November 23, 2007

We purchased this because we wanted to try an air filter with a permanent filter but not one like the ionic breeze. This little unit seems to work well and it is fairly quiet on the low setting. We clean the filter every 2 weeks and remove a good amount of dust. The unit is in a bedroom and appears to be making a difference in the amount of dust present. We did try the scent cartridge but found it to be over powering and quickly removed it. So, this has been a good filter for the money so far.

We have had these for so many years, I can't remember how long it's been. We run it day and night from the minute we get it. It is in our bedroom and not only is it great for helping clean the air but it filers out unwanted noises. Very nice white noise, we can't sleep without it. Im ordering 2 more, one for the guest room and one as a spare. They are little work horses. When the filter gets dirty, just take it out and give it a good wash, let it dry, put it back in! No having to buy filters!
