I bought this item through Amazon. If you sit next to it you can tell by the smell that it's working slightly. But, it isn't real abundant and it wears out quickly. It's not as powerful as they claim. I would have bought a different cleaner and actually am looking for a different one to replace this one. I need something stronger. My room is only 10 X 10 that it is in...hardly can tell it works.
I purchased two of the Ionic Breeze Professionals with the added ultraviolet bulb that help to kill bacteria. Based on the amount of black gunk that collects on the metal grids each time I clean it, it must be working. I have read the Consumer Reports that it emits unhealthy ozone and the air does have that after a thunderstome smell, but I have not experienced any breathing problems. My wife is a very heavy smoker (unfortunately) and I think these units are removing a lot of the tobacco smell and particulates. Some reviews say the ozone emitted is so low, it isn't really a concern anyway. Not sure who is right. I have found that the low odor water based Goof Off in the orange spray bottle cleans the black gunk right off the grids. Spray on, let it sit for a minute, wipe off with paper towels, rinse off with water and be sure all parts are completely dry before re-assembling and turning the unit on again.
I've had my unit for a year now. Yes, it does work. All you need to do is look at the blades and see that it collects alot of dark black particles out of the air that you would be breathing into your body. I also have a Bionaire filter cleaner that does not work nearly as well and is alot noisier. The only negative to the Ionic Breeze is the ESD it gives off that affects any electronic products nearby. Keep it away from stereos, tv's, computers etc. I think I damaged by DSL modem by placing the IB next to it.
I really should have looked up people's reviews prior to purchasing this unit. Mine just stopped working. I cleaned out the inside with air, I've been cleaning the insert all along and it just stopped! What a waste of money. Haven't tried to talk to Sharper Image about it yet but I'm not hopeful.
Mine picks up a lot of dust. I have to clean it every few days. The blades turns completely black. You must buy it with the ozone guard, otherwise it will be unhealthy. One great thing the unit does is get rid of bad smell. Once I forgot to open the fireplace vent when i lit the fire and smoke filled the house. I used it suck up all the dust and the smell. I was able to get back in my place to sleep that night without breathing problem. Of course i also needed to vacuum and clean all the surfaces. I think this unit is only helpful. The most important thing is to vacuum your carpet and to clean your house often.
