 Honeywell 18155 Air Purifier November 16, 2009
R. Whitmire (Papillion, Nebraska United States)
My Wife said I needed something in my man cave to clean the air. So I bought the Honeywell 18155 air purifier. It really does a good job. I keep it running 24/7 and my wife and daughter says it does a very good job of cleaning the air in the entire basement. About 1000 square feet down here. It is very quite and so far very effective. It fits very well under a coffee table in the center of the room. We are glad its here.
 Helped my allergies November 12, 2009
R. Roll (Northern, CA United States)
I received this air purifier yesterday and as others have reported they noticed an overnight improvement in their allergies. I seem to have developed a sensitivity to mold, which many homes and apartments have here in San Francisco due to the moist air. My doctor recommended an air purifier. This unit dramatically made a difference overnight in my allergies and I highly recommend it. It is the size of a small ottoman and is supposed to be placed 3 Feet from the wall or furniture for optimum functionality. Some people have felt that it was noisy. When the unit was on high I did notice that I had to turn up the volume slightly on the TV. Although, I just placed the unit on the medium speed and it was quieter. It's not noisy and is about the same as having a fan running, like if you had a small air conditioner. In fact the sound is quite soothing and is of a "white" noise type, so it blocks out other noise. Overall, we noticed that the air in the room is cleaner. I also like that you can vacuum the Hepa filter to clean it and that there are replacement carbon pre-filters.
Large but Effective November 1, 2009
Love Keeping it Simple (Boston, MA)
We purchased the Honeywell 18155 for our living room after buying the 17000 for our bedroom, and seeing the benefits it provided to my allergic husband's symptoms. This product is highly effective in purifying our living room atmosphere (a room about 17'x22'). In our urban condo, we deal with pollution, pollen, and cat dander. This air purifier is surprisingly quiet, has 3 speed settings, and has a permanent HEPA filter which we clean out using our HEPA rated vacuum cleaner - - saving us money on replacement filters.
I won't lie. The thing is really big. Our home is only 850 sq. ft. and I am amazed that I willingly dedicate the square footage to this thing that it demands. It's about the size of a low nightstand, or one of those Gatorade containers you see at NFL games on TV that they dump over the coach's head :) Also, it isn't completely silent - - but the noise is not at all intrusive. I actually think it's quieter than our Honeywell 17000. In my research, I read that for an effective air purifier I think you have to put up with a decent-sized unit. For the benefits it provides, we don't mind the sound or the size.
We leave the unit on 24/7 on "Low," and once a week after I thoroughly vacuum and clean our home, I run it on "high" for about 2 hours.
Overall, I recommend this product to allergy sufferers, provided you're fully aware of its size and mild noise. For the price, it's a very effective unit - - and if you want something equally effective but smaller, you're talking about hundreds of dollars more in price.
 Poor Quality November 1, 2009

This unit powered itself off after only running a few minutes after I received it, and would never come back on. I emailed the customer service department and I did receive a prompt and courteous reply. But the unit had to be returned and I did not repurchase.
 Anything but silent October 22, 2009

Probably an effective and efficient air cleaner. Too soon to know for sure.
But it is noisy. Silent setting is anything but. Seller tries hard but not
there yet.
