5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Electrolux Oxygen Ultra Air Cleaner, EL500AZ (Kitchen)
No one's reviewed this unit yet? It surprises me. I really like it. It has lowered the overall odor in my home and completely eliminated the pungent odor from daily hookah smoking from my dining and sitting room in about a month running on auto-mode. The 5 speeds it has goes from a soft soft whisper up to a bit of a roar and the amount of air it moves is noticeable too. I've been using it for a nearly 2 months now and believe it's very effective. I have a chronic low level sinus issue where stuff in the air can really bother them and many times don't breathe well at night and wake up very fuzzy-headed, but in the first week of having the 2 different Electrolux purifiers in the house I wake up feeling alert and clear-headed now. I certainly didn't expect that! There are so many fake air purifiers out there and I did some homework on the technologies to weed out the fakes and reading reviews to weed out the ones with issues.
I researched and shopped around for the best purifier at a reasonable cost and this is it in my opinion. I'm a senior electronics technician of over 25 years by occupation in the fields of medical and telecom equipment and good at understanding how technologies whether electrical or mechanical works. I'm very skeptical about the claims they all make and there are so many of these too good to be true purifiers that work by magic or seem to be really leading edge sophisticated technology that's not so much. Honestly when I started educating myself on air purifiers it got confusing. I spent many hours over a month or so looking at all the different makes and trying to eek all the science out of each one. These Electrolux units I think are solid and clean the air with a simple 3 stage process instead of 6 to 9 steps and the extra maintenance and cost that would entail to do maybe as well as this one. I think that this unit does as well or better as some of the ones that go for $500 or more. This Electrolux is well worth the money if you have a larger area with it's ability to move a lot of air and it's CADR specs are impressively higher than some of these high priced things that rate half as good and do little more than a walk-in closet. Between the HEPA filter and the PlasmaWave ionizer it scrubs the air of everything and it's cool how it senses when the air needs more cleaning and steps the fan speed up to clean more and gives an indication on a 5 segment display. Mostly I just leave it in auto mode and it adjusts as needed to the air quality. The air in the house is not only dust free as in I never see anything floating in the air through the sunlight or a lamp, but the overall odor that the place had has been much neutralized. It does a great job of eliminating cooking odor even if I don't use the kitchen range exhaust fan. I've figured out that these Electrolux units are built on the same chassis as the Winix 5300, Sharp Plasmacluster, and possibly the Rabbit BioGS. Seriously go look them up and tell me they aren't based on the same unit! But all have wildy varying ratings and prices and the brute performance and low price of theElectrolux makes it for me the cream at the top. I can't think of anything to ding it on; the quality seems very good and the construction is solid. It's very good so it gets a 5 star. I'll revisit this review later and update it from a longer term perspective. I also have the EL490A that I use upstairs. It's a lower CADR rating but still higher than most, does about 80 sq ft less area and half the price. My overall impression with that unit is the same as this one; superb! It's been over a year now and I still like it as well as the day I got it. The overall odor of the house is much more neutral than it was since it sucks the odor out of everything in the place and the amount of dust throughout the house is noticeably lower!

This review is from: Electrolux Oxygen Ultra Air Cleaner, EL500AZ (Kitchen)
I have terrible allergies to animal dander and we have a houseful of dogs and cats. Since giving up our furry family members is not an option, I decided to look into an air purifier. After extensive research, I chose the Electrolux air cleaner and I'm glad I did. It works like a charm and I am particularly happy with the Energy Star rating. We also have a very "gassy" dog and now I don't have to choke on his daily additions to the air pollution problem either. At those times, the Electrolux automatically jumps into a higher fan speed and takes care of the stench before it even reaches my nose. YEAH! So not only am I taking far less allergy medication, but I will not have to kick out my husband and his gas factory of a dog. Plus, we have several cats. One of the litter boxes is right here in my office. (I move the Electrolux to whatever room I'm in, the office during the day, bedroom at night.) I hear the fan speed increase before I even know there is a cat in the litter box. I don't smell anything! So now, I can sleep all night and not wake up feeling like my sinuses are packed with concrete and I can breathe freely all day...with no odors. No itchy eyes! No constant sneezing! Most definitely would recommend the Electrolux Oxygen Ultra Air Cleaner to anyone with animals in the house.
