Pros: My lungs feel like a teenager again

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: What you can't see will hurt you! Clean your air! Your lungs will thank you for a long long time.

Review: About a year and half ago I developed breathing problems. I was short of breath and my nose was always stuffed up no matter what time of year it was and I had a very painful dry cough all of the time. I went to a doctor, actually several doctors, who...

Pros: Not nosy, easy to clean, runs great

Cons: Cold air blows out of it, which is too cold in the winter

The Bottom Line: Definitely a great humidifier for small to medium room

Review: I have 2 of these units for twins' rooms. I bougth them at target for around 120 each. I did so much research on this site first and decided I wanted a good name, a life-long hepa filter, and something not too noisy. This was after I had bought a hunter ...

Pros: Immediate Noticeable Air Improvement

Cons: Somewhat Large

Review: Our doctor recommended this model and we found it at a great price at Costco. He said it would not only clean our air, but it would also reduce our Northern California humidity indoors. He was right!

I used to wake up with a runny nose most...

Pros: Works great, filters out pollen, dust, molds, and pet dander.

Cons: Expensive HEPA filter replacement at $70.

The Bottom Line: Very effective for cleaning air of allergens, worth the price to be able to breathe again.

Review: Well, with allergy season just around the corner, I decided it was time to look into one of these air purifiers. Not only am I allergic to pollen, but I’m also sensitive to dust and somewhat allergic to our beloved cat. It was more money than I wanted...

Pros: Works Excellent! Easy to Use!

Cons: None known

The Bottom Line: I've been using this air cleaner for well over a year now without any problems. It's still a honey of a air cleaner!!

Review: I am updating this review (originally written Oct. 2000) because this little air cleaner has been running for over a year now without any problems! It's still quiet and effective.

My doctor told me to buy it! After numerous sinus infections...

Pros: Quiet and inconspicuous

Cons: none

Review: My wife suffers from allergies, and before we bought the Honeywell model 17000 air cleaner, she would go for weeks having trouble sleeping because of the coughing and sneezing.

The night we "installed" the air cleaner, she got a...

Pros: Highly efficient, cleans the air, great for allergies.

Cons: No cons, great machine.

Review: I own 2 of the Honeywell Hepa filter machines. I highly recommend these machines for anyone suffering from allergies. And they reduce dust in the air so you don't have to clean your home as often. I hardly ever open the windows in my apartment ...

Pros: Portable, permanent HEPA filter, helped my evening stuffiness

Cons: Pre-filter needs to be replaced, too loud on medium & high speeds

The Bottom Line: Helps clean the air in our bedroom so I am not congested, makes room smell cleaner

Review: Seasonal allergies have affected me since I was 18 years old.  Luckily, I have them mostly under control by taking 2000 mg of a supplement called MSM daily.  However, I have noticed this year, although I feel good during the day, I have been ...

Pros: Ease of use and filter change. Low price, reasonably quiet at low speed.

Cons: Filter changing (but all HEPA units need this)

The Bottom Line: Cost effective HEPA air cleaner. Filters easily found. Fairly quiet. No problems here.

Review: The Honeywell 17000 is our second Honeywell HEPA cleaner. The other worked fine over 4 or 5 years. My wife has intermittent allergies and a HEPA cleaner seems to help during bad times. We do not use the cleaner every day. We use it when my wife senses...

Pros: quiet on a low speed, freshens air, reduces dog/pet dander

Cons: loud on medium and high, a fairly large machine

Review: A year ago, my husband and I adopted a dog from the local animal shelter. A week later, I began waking up in the middle of the night coughing uncontrollably and feeling out of breath. I went to the doctor who said it was probably a result of the dog and...
