Advanced Bio-Engineered Fiber Material
The Rabbit Air utilizes a HEPA filter made of the most advanced Bio-Engineer fiber material available. To help you and your family breathe fresher air, the filter not only traps but also destroys common allergens like pet epithelia, dust mites, and pollen--all of which typically accumulate on the filters. Three-Stage Filtration Process
The Rabbit Air operates at four different speeds and uses a three-stage filtration process to eliminate, remove, and destroy many allergens, odors, and germs. The first stage utilizes the pre-filter, which captures large size particles, dust, pet hair, germs, fungus, and mold. It's also sink washable and dishwasher safe, so you don't have to worry about the expense of continually replacing filters. The second stage involves the BioGS HEPA filter, made to last up to three years at 122 hours per day operation. This filter boasts Bio-Fibers that destroy allergens and bacteria captured on it. Additionally, flu prevention coating helps safeguard the your health and the health of your family. Finally, the third stage features the honeycomb charcoal deodorization filter, which is also sink washable and dishwasher safe, requiring no replacement. This filter removes exhaust gas, pet odor, trash odor, chemical substances, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), household odors, and cigarette odor. Flu Prevention Capability
Using this air purifier helps protect your health and the health of your family. The Osaka Public Health Research Center in Japan found that the Rabbit Air's HEPA filter, which is coated with anti-influenza virus agent, effectively lowered the viral transmission of H3N2 influenza virus. Additionally, it is able to trap airborne allergens and contaminants down to 0.3 microns in size 99.97 percent of the time, and features a Nano-Silver pre-filter to help kill airborne bacteria, mold, and viruses. Cutting-Edge Motor Design
The Rabbit Air features a cutting-edge motor design that allows for ultra-quiet operation of only 19 decibels (nearly silent) at low speed, and up to only 49 decibels at high speed. The motor also moves air faster (two air changes per hour) because there is no brush resistance to cause sparks and damaging wear and tear after prolonged use. Because it's so efficient, you can run the Rabbit Air 24 hours a day and still save on your energy bill; this purifier uses only 67 watts at Turbo speed and seven watts in silent mode. Safe and easy to operate, the Rabbit Air emits zero ozone and measures 18.0 x 22.5 x 9.0 inches (WxHxD) and weighs 17 pounds. It also comes with a five-year warranty. What's in the Box
Air purifier, HEPA filter with flu prevention, washable Nano-Silver Pre-filter, washable charcoal-based honeycomb activated carbon filter, remote control, 3V Lithium coin battery, User's Guide, Starter Guide for Filter Installation, and warranty registration card.

 Works Great September 25, 2009

The product is great. I bought another one for the front room. Love it.
 Definitely Makes a Difference in Air Quality September 3, 2009
T. Norton (Huntington Beach, CA)
When I first bought this air purifier I could feel the difference. The air seemed fresh and clean. Now that I've had it a few months, it stills makes a difference, but it doesn't seem to be quite as extreme. I did just clean the filter for the first time about 2.5 months after getting and it and boy, was there a lot of fine fine dust, pet hair and other junk. After reading the directions I noticed I was supposed to clean the 1st filter every month. I tend to put the fan on rather than use the auto function because it seems to clean better. I'm pleased with my purchase though, and overall I feel healthier because of it.
this really works August 6, 2009

This really works. The auto mode is fantastic. Comes on as needed. To put it delicately....when I or my dogs pass gas within seconds the auto mode kicks in a goes to a higher speed. If I come up from my basement, it detects whatever I brought up with me and revs up. It is normally quiet and usually runs at low speed but I am amazed at the sensitivity to what is in the air and with three dogs it does the job. Filters are no problem to clean. I intend to buy another for my bed room since it sits over a crawl space.
VERY GOOD PRODUCT July 30, 2009
Susu (Shippensburg, PA USA)
I have only had the Rabbit Air BioGS 582A for a couple weeks. Very easy to set up, and get operating. I wish the instructions went into more detail about what the different functions are used for [for people like me who do not know the technical lingo]. It seems to be working very well. I have a lot of alergies. Some have said they don't know where to put the remote. There is a molded indention area for the remote on the top of the unit, to the right of the air vent, for this purpose. I am thinking about getting a 2nd one, when I can, for my outer rooms.
Rabbit Air BioGS Model 582A is Very Effective & Well Supported July 12, 2009

Prior to purchasing the Rabbit Air BioGS (model 582A - covers 780 sq. ft.) Ultra-Quiet Air Purifier w/ Germicidal Sterilization - Low Maintenance - Washable Filters!, Metallic Blue, we had stuffy noses and headaches in the morning. This may have been related to installation of an attic and insulation as well as repair of water damage where black mold was growing. We removed the black mold using a bleach water mixture. We then tried an ozonator (Living Air) and electrostatic filters (Sharper Image) over a period of weeks but they did not help. However, the very same night that we put the Rabbit Air BioGS Model 582A in the bedroom, we saw an improvement in our symptoms.
I'm very happy with the product and this review doesn't stop here. I've comfortable that Rabbit Air will continue to support the product based on the experience we had with the first unit which arrived in a box that had been handled roughly. Upon inspecting the package, we found the product damaged and immediately called Rabbit Air. Their customer service answered on the second ring and without transferring me, they were able to ask a few questions and in less than 5 minutes, I was off the phone. A new unit showed up the very next day and the shipper picked up the damaged unit on the same visit! Now that's the definition of excellent customer service!
The product carries a five year warranty and when taking into account that Rabbit Air actually answers the phone with a live person, it really leaves me a confidence that they will be there if we do run into warranty related issues or questions.
Rabbit Air also offers a filter replacement reminder service. This is also a great feature since some of the filters require replacement in 18 months to 3 years. In this period of time, I know that a reminder will be nice although, there is a filter replacement indicator built into the unit.
We would strongly recommend the Rabbit Air BioGS Model 582A to anybody that has a need to reduce odors and dust/pollen/smoke from a room. We are completely satisfied with the company and the product at this point. Bottom line: The product works exactly as the product description implies and it is very well supported.
We've had the Rabbit Air BioGS Model 582A for two months and it performs very well. The unit is in the bedroom and we leave it in automatic mode all the time. The speed automatically changes depending on the amount of dust, pollen or odors in the air. This should lead to the lowest energy cost possible while still keeping the air clean.
While the price tag was a bit high, I think the unit will perform well over the next five or more years and should have the lowest cost of ownership. The pre-filter and the carbon filter can be cleaned (every one to two months for the pre-filter and every 18 to 36 months for the carbon filter). The carbon filter can be cleaned only once and then is supposed to be replaced after it becomes dirty again. The HEPA filter requires changing only once every 36 months. Timers for filter replacement and cleaning are built into the unit and automatic. We expect that it will be cheaper to operate than most others on the market with similar capabilities. Frankly, I'm expecting to get more life from all filters than the manual states because the air in our bedroom is not very dirty so the unit runs at extremely low speed (almost can't hear it!) most of the time.
I'm still baffled that Consumer Reports has not rated this excellent, efficient and very well supported product. I know it is supported well because the first unit was damaged in shipment (dropped hard by UPS). I called Rabbit Air and on the second ring, a live person picked up the phone and within less than 5 minutes arranged to have a new unit shipped. The new unit arrived the very next day and UPS simply picked up the damaged unit at the same time.
