Summary: small, cheap, effective
Comment: I live in a studio apartment with two cats and a cruel cat allergy. Before going to bed I turn it on to low by my bedside and I never have allergy attacks.
It gets a little louder when it's on high but not more than the AC.

Summary: Does the Job
Comment: I ordered two of the TrueAir 04381 Air Cleaners recently. They arrived this week. One of them is in the family room. I dust and vacuum my home regularly but we still needed some extra assistance in our master bedroom and family room. The dust particles could be seen in the late afternoon when the sun beamed through the family room windows. The family room is a large room but I put another Fabreze wall mount air cleaner in another area of the space in addition to the True Air cleaner. That seems to be all that's needed. We have two other UV air cleaners in the house which were more expensive. The two True Air cleaners have done the **best** immediate job of cleaning the air. They are very reasonably priced even with the filter replacements. I will follow the guidelines which recommend changing out the filters every three months. The effort and expense is worth every cent in minimizing colds, flu, and other bacterial menaces. If I find some problem with these after a few months, I will return to this review and report the problems. So far, we're finding these two items really do the job and we're very happy with the product.

Summary: It's not that complex, but it does work to reduce air-born dust.
Comment: I am not sure how fine the particles are that get trapped, but in terms of actual dust in the air ... It really works. In fact, it works so well that the front intake screen has gotten covered with a visible layer of brown dust (which I wipe off).
I never noticed my house being all that 'dusty' ... but given the amount of dust collected in the filter and on the front of the unit, I am sure it is working and doing a lot for my home.

Summary: I could go on and on about how great this is!
Comment: First and foremost, this machine has changed my life. I only use this machine in my bedroom and only operate it at night. In the months that I have owned it, I never wake up with a sore lump in my throat anymore. I never wake up with a stuffy nose. These two things alone would be reason enough to recommend this.
But, the mackdaddy of all reasons is that this machine (while relatively quiet on medium setting) makes it so that I cannot hear my neighbor's dog barking. This has really changed my life! I would have never imagined that I could be this free from the terrorism that was my neighbor's dog barking when I was trying to sleep. There was nothing we could do about it because it was intermittent and the neighbors are never home to silence the dog until late at night. These neighbors are psycho as well and best left to avoid communication altogether.
Now, I even feel fond thoughts toward the dog that I used to lay awake red-eyed, wishing it would keel over. I bought an extra air purifier, just in case mine dies. That is how much I recommend this product.
This thing works for snoring, too! I do not sleep in the same bedroom as my husband because he snores. Now, when we have guests that need my bed, I gladly cough it up and go sleep in the bed with my husband because when I crank this thing on high, I can barely hear a thing! WONDERFUL!
By the way, I only have to change my filter every 4-5 months since I don't operate it that much and I buy mine at Target's brick and mortar store.

Summary: this is a good air filter
Comment: I don't have a lot of problems with allergies, but I was having some problems with dust irritating my sinuses. I started looking around for an air purifier and found that for my problem that I didn't need a really high end type of purifier. This unit is a good little filterer and meets my needs perfectly. If I run it for two days on low the air seems sweeter, cleaner. The difference is obvious. My house is small and so is this unit. I can move it around and I feel that I am getting the results that I had hoped for. On low speed it is quiet enough to sleep with in the room. On medium or high setting the sound level is higher than I would want in the same room with me at night. A side benefit is that it moves the air effectively.
The specifications show that it uses 60 watts, I assume that's on high setting, so on low I think that it must be significantly lower, which is where I use it most. It does seem effective on low. I have already found replacement filters at Target for about $10.00. After about two months use the filter does not seem to be anywhere near the end of it's life cycle.
While this may not be the best choice for people with higher filtration and purifying needs, it is perfect for my situation. I'm glad that I didn't spend more for a unit that is larger and has more features than I really needed. It was delivered quickly for about $50.00 total.
