I like the purifier. But, why isn't this thin piece of flimsy metal included with the $550 product for which it is intended?

Amazon keeps listing it as something I should review so here it is:
This is a bracket. It holds the purifier to the wall. It is a little lame they charge for a simple bent piece of metal. It does what it should as the purifier has yet to fall off the wall.

I've had this thing running for a couple of days now, and it does work very well. I checked it using a green laser pointer, which brightly illuminates tiny particles in the air along the length of the beam. When moved across the output vent of the MinusA2 the beam becomes almost invisible, so I have no doubts it's doing it's job.

It is very quiet on the low settings, though I wouldn't go so far as to call it silent, there is a quiet steady tone emitted but it's not too bothersome unless you're close to it. I would certainly prefer if it were only the white noise of the air movement that was audible, though.

Edit:
As part of my review I had previously mentioned the fact that this purifier was taking a disliking to my humidifier. I've done some further research and testing and found that it was the fault of my humidifier. It turns out that ultrasonic humidifiers inject a really nasty volume of particulate matter into the air while they run and so the MinusA2 was constantly having to filter it. This, again, was easily verifiable with my green laser pointer. I've switched to warm mist humidifiers (that simply boil/evaporate the water) and no more issues, the two live happily side-by-side.

So: DO NOT use an ultrasonic humidifier in conjunction with this purifier. In fact, based on the volume of particles they throw into the air, I'd seriously recommend against ultrasonic humidifiers in general.

I've had the MinusA2 running steady for weeks now and it's still doing it's job extremely well.

This is just a cheap piece of metal plate, pretty thin and feels flimsy. It's also not very wide, I wasn't able to find 2 studs that were close enough to properly mount this and when I screwed it onto a single stud with the center 2 holes, the sides bend away from the wall a bit when the Rabbit Air is hung. I had to improvise and screw the plate onto a 5-ply piece of wood and then mounted the wood+plate onto a single stud. Seems secure now...

The product does what it is supposed to do, but I'm giving the company one star for not including this cheap strip of metal with all of their purifiers. It is beyond ridiculous to charge people an additional $10 to hang their expensive filters on a damn wall.

It's a little disappointing to pay over $500 for a product which costs $75 a year to maintain and is advertised as being something you can hang up on the wall, but you have to pay $10 for that feature....not to mention, it's just a flimsy, cheap piece of metal. Seriously? Besides that, Rabbit Air is amazing with excellent customer service - but this is a rip-off.

Well, our air purifier hasn't fallen off the wall, nor is it wobbly or unstable. Not much to say: it's a piece of metal that does it's job exactly as it's supposed to.

Attractive unit. I presently have it on an end table in my finished basement. It is certainly quiet and appears to be well constructed. Is it doing what it's supposed to do? I'm not sure how to tell, exactly, except to check the filters after it's been running a while.
