Review: Works Beautifully - We purchased one of these on sale in
the hope it would help moderate the severity of pollen season in
upstate NY and the dander generated by two large labradors. It
has a nice, clean look and small foot print, which we feel is
important. The HEPA filter was shipped inside it in a bag that
needs to be removed but doing so was incredibly quick and easy to
do. Twist the top a quarter turn and place to one side. Lift out
the filter, remove the bag, lower the filter back in using the
two tabs provided on it for that purpose, lift the lid back on
and quarter twist to close. It takes 2 mins. Then its' plug-in,
turn on and choose ""Auto" or a fan speed using the touch
sensitive panel on top. You can control it from your iphone if
you're into that but it certainly isn't necessary. The first
thing we noticed is how quiet it is. Effectively soundless in
sleep mode and at fan speed 1. Barely noticeable at fan speed 2,
unless you're right next to it, noticeable at fan speed 3 when
you are in the same room as it but not obnoxious. Noticeably
louder at fan speed 4 which should be considered a 'Turbo" mode.
Then we noticed the impact of running it - vastly reduced
swelling of the eyes and sinuses of those suffering from hay
fever and a significant reduction in the doggy smell of our
labradors. It works really well. We have taken advantage of the
ability to control this by iPhone to set a schedule where it
automatically runs in sleep mode (low, continuous fan) from 10pm
to 5am. Then at fan speed 2 from 5am to 5:30am, ramping up to fan
speed 3 from 5:30am to 8am before switching to auto from 8am to
10pm. Because of the relatively severe allergies suffered by a
couple of our family members the P2.5 micron threshold is set to
2 ug per meter cubed and this filter has been able to attain that
incredibly low level with that schedule within a few hours of all
windows and doors to the outside being closed to the 1800 sq. ft
area it services. At this point we have an oasis for our hay
fever sufferers to return to each evening and it's made an
incredible difference to their comfort. Do they still take
Claritin or Allegra during pollen season? Yes, we've found it
necessary to deal with the pollen at work and in the garden. Are
they doing better than they were before we got this filter? Yes,
the continuously swollen and itchy, weeping eyes are gone. The
inflamed nasal passages are gone. Their sleep deprivation is
gone. Their quality of life has improved dramatically. We had no
idea how dramatic an impact adding a quality, appropriately sized
HEPA filtration system would have. This unit is rated for
something like 3000 sq. ft. We're using to control air quality in
a 1800 sq.f.t open plan area and its doing a great job of that
without having to run the fan at high speed for prolonged periods
of time. We've had this for several weeks now and experienced 1st
hand how well it can deal with really terrible air quality when
the smoke from the fires in Quebec blew into NY. Opening the door
to come into the house with the shopping during the worst of it
briefly dropped the air quality from a PM2.5 of 001 to as high as
a PM2.5 of 185 within 12 feet of the door. This was then quickly
reduced to a PM2.5 of less than 20 in an hour and back to 001 in
about 2 hours after the door was closed. The outside airs PM2.5
was apparently North of 300 at this time (sources accuweather and
the news), the air was literally a hazy brown like smog and this
filter was able to detect it, automatically adjust its fan speed
to clear it and maintain perfect air quality in the house. Does
it work? Absolutely, quietly and brilliantly. Would we buy this
again? Yes, in fact we have so that we can control the air
quality for one of our allergy sufferers in another area where
they have to spend prolonged periods of time. That one's been in
place for about 3 weeks and has done exactly what we hoped it
would do - improve the quality of life at work in a 7000 sq.ft.
open plan office area. Now this is well beyond the manufacturers
claimed coverage for a unit and it looks like they're right based
on who's apparently benefiting and who isn't but here's the
important point. The benefits to the workforce have been so
noticeable to management they're now considering upgrading the
offices HVAC system to include HEPA filtration. I think that
speaks volumes.
Review: Excellent Purifier - I don't often write reviews but in
this case I wanted to as the unit met my expectations.The
purifier (Core 600S) comes as advertised. The filter is enclosed
in a plastic bag, which must be removed before turning on the
unit. The instructions are clear and easy to follow to open the
top of the purifier, and replace the filter once the bag has been
removed from around it. The unit is very quiet when in "Auto"
mode, if you manually adjust the fan speed to max, it becomes
noisy, but not unbearably so. I generally only use the max speed
if I notice the reading on the screen going high, and then slip
it back on auto once things are under control. The unit is app
controlled with speed control, scheduling, power and filter life
details all available therein. From the moment I purchased this
and turned it on, I noticed a drastic improvement in the air
quality in my home. My wife and I are both sinus sufferers, and
since I've bought this, she no longer walks through the house
sneezing during days of high Sahara dust and smoke, and I no
longer wake up with watery eyes. The unit is very efficient and
works to keep my entire home clean. I have this unit in my living
room and doors of adjacent rooms are kept open during the day and
the purifier easily manages to keep the air quality in an
excellent state throughout all of them. The unit is easy to
clean. I wipe the outside with a soft cloth and vacuum the base
on the inside to pick up any heavier/larger pieces of dust that
accumulates under the filter. I purchased it at the beginning of
July, and am now in line for my first filter replacement after
about 6 months, and no dip in performance. The filters are a
little on the expensive side, but I'm happy with the performance
of the purifier and don't mind paying the price to ensure the
same quality in my breathing air. I hope this was helpful to
someone out there.
