Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Holmes HEPA-Type Air Purifier - Small (HAP242-UC)

Customer Review: I'm going to see if I get rid of my paper piles...
Summary: 5 Stars

Papers & books breakdown, ask any bookstore in the mall. Next, let's talk about the (2) types of dirt...outside & people. Then, there's all the chemi-kills your house is built out of, the mold, and the chemicals it takes to clean it. The Environmental Protection Agency says inside pollution is 2 to 5 times worse than outside. Monitors are dust collectors. PC's suck in dust all day. Electronics act like a huge magnet pulling in yuck from all sides of the room, and then you sit your face by it for hours at a time...dust is a problem.

So, you can spend half a grand and get some ozone poisoning if you like, to kill off everything in the house. Just take out a loan and buy a Sharper Image stick cleaner. They work. The reason they don't use a fan is because the ions push the air around.

However, for the rest of us...Holmes has a good solution. HEPA filtration was like nuclear submarine quality about a decade ago. No one had this because we couldn't afford it. Today, these little units start at just under thirty bucks. I got the HAP2400, and somehow filled the pre-filter face in less than 15 days. But, I don't know how...my room was clean! I'm reading smoke, pet, molds, but I don't have these problems. That's when I learned about the magnets in the computers, and the normal level of junk in the air. I think I read that 90% of your time is spent at home. If you saw the stuff I pulled down, why wouldn't you get one of these? I feel like I just vacuumed the air. Replacement filers only run about ten bucks, and they last 3-4 months.

Negative side:
- I read that small particles out the back of the unit don't wash off easy if you don't replace the filter on a normal basis.
- I'm not big on negative ions because I don't know enough about them. Hippes back in the 70's like them, most vegitarians dig them, many tree huggers have them, and I bet Leonardo DeCaprio has them in his wardrobe some place. j/k. But, I'd like to know more about them.

(I'm going to see if I get rid of my paper piles, if that helps...dust is N-Asty!)
