My parents got me one of these units for Christmas, since I have asthma and allergies and so had asked for an air purifier. My first impression was it looks small and cheap; therefore, I am quite surprised researching now to discover it to be the price that it is. I kept checking the unit periodically to see whether it needed cleaned, like if it's working, then stuff is supposed to collect that is supposed to be periodically cleaned - nothing was ever needing cleaned, and now I have one of the worst cases of bronchitis that I've had in several years. I'm junking it, and today bought a higher quality, much better, double filtration unit at Menard's, on sale for $29. I can now tell a noticeable difference. I would not recommend the Bell Howell air purifier to anyone. It's way overpriced and plainly stated, it does nothing to purify the air.

I would not recommend buying this piece of junk to anyone.

I received one as a give about 2 years back and it worked for all of maybe a month. It has a little 2 inch fan (almost looks like a computer fan!) that pulls air in through the back vents past the tiny little collection grid that never had anything stuck to it. The fan failed after about a month and turned the unit into a useless piece of trash.

Do not buy.

It helped with the amount of dust in my room. I could breath better thru my nose at night after I started using it.
