5.0 out of 5 stars
Very happy,
This review is from: Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000C Air Purifier (Health and Beauty)
Had my 'c' model for a bit now and I am very happy, the bedroom is definitely clearer and I am waking up much more refreshed and less congested. The unit is well built and quiet. I researched the difference between the 'c' and 'e' model and found they are identical except the 'c' has an added feature which is an ionizer booster control. The 'c' was only slightly higher in price, less than ten bucks, and I liked that feature so I chose the 'c' model. I shopped around on the internet and found the price range was large, with this price from Amazon being in the middle, I actually found the unit for 108 and it arrived in 2 days! Shop around a bit and you will save even more. Looks like Amazon has the edge on the replacement filter and UV lamp though- but they are designed to only be replaced yearly with everyday use.

Nice purifier. Priced well. Read before you listen to low scores.,

This review is from: Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000C Air Purifier (Health and Beauty)
I purchased both the C and D models. The D model supposedly has a slightly beefier fan. I had read the reviews and noted a low score review that talked about not having enough airflow to even hold a paper at the inlet. Note that this product ships with the filter in place. The filter must be removed and a piece of cardboard removed from it. If you don't do that, of course it won't pass air. I say that because I performed the "see if the suction can hold the paper" test and it did just fine.
That said, any purifier review is going to be somewhat subjective unless you test it under labratory conditions. I have no idea how well this unit cleans the air except to make these factual notes: 1. After a month of use (C model) in our bedroom (and we keep a clean house), I looked at the air filter and it was coated with dust. I suppose this is a good thing. I plan to vaccum the dust off to extend the filter life. But it proves it does something. Our bedroom is quite large (20x15). 2. We have a finished downstairs where our chocolate lab stays (about 20x20). My wife immediately noticed that the "pet smell" was gone (using the D model). That alone was good enough for her. This purifier has hepa, carbon, UV, and ozone purification methods. I can attest to the fact that the ozone is definately distinguishable by smell when it is turned up high. It almost smells like the air around a chlorinated pool. You can set the level if you don't want so much ozone, or shut it off completely. The one test I have not tried is to see if it removes the smokey smell from our fireplace. We get a pungent smell, especially when it rains and the rain combines with the creosote in the fireplace. If it removes this odor, it will be a definite winner in my book and I'll raise the rank to 5 stars. The last test will be how it does during pollen season. I have allergies and one test will be to see how it does during heavy pollination, though it would need to be in a room without open windows I would think. What the specifications for this product do not tell you is how much air is circulated through this per hour. That would be important information and is available for the BlueAir purifier. I was considering the BlueAir, $800 model (with $150 filter replacements). It could be that this would be a far better choice, but at a $700 difference, the Surround Air seems to do the job...and you could buy 8 of them at the same price! With much cheaper filters. Summary: In my opinion, this is a thumbs-up for rooms up to about 400 sq feet. For bigger spaces, you might consider multiple units (?) before going for that hugely expensive purifier. It's worth a try for under $100! (last I checked it was $98 on Amazon for the C model).

This review is from: Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000C Air Purifier (Health and Beauty)
Great value for the money, this unit is nice and compact. For the amount of square footage that it covers, this air purifier takes up very little space compared to what's out there in the market. It also comes w/ an option for UV light and ionizer that you can choose to turn on/off.
