Honeywell HFD-135 Permanent IFD UV Antibacterial Air Purifier Reviews
(1) I didn’t want to think it helped right away, but it did! I felt like all I heard from my Doctor was, allergies, allergies, allergies! I decided finally it was time to get a good air purifier for my home. I did not want to get a cheapy, so I browsed around until I found one that did it all.
I put my Air Purifier in the Living Room where I spend most of my relaxation time, spent 2-3 hours in the room, and the next day I felt pretty amazing.
In nearly 24 hours, I noticed a dramatic difference in the way I breathe, and the dark circles under my eyes from chronic sinusitis started to disappear. The dark circles made me look tired and sickly.
I continued to use it over a few more days and I am very happy with it and it’s results.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who suffers from year round allergies, or even a seasonal allergy sufferer that just can’t figure out “What else should I clean?” “What else is there to get rid of?” It is worth it!!
(2) I love this product! My husband and I both have allergies and asthma, and 2 small dogs. We have the filter in our bedroom and I could tell a difference right away. We own two other Honeywell filters as well and this is my favorite one by far because there is no expensive filters to buy. For those of you who think this product is loud, you haven’t had many air purifiers. It’s not extreamly quiet but this one rates as one of the quietest even when on high!
(3) I got the Honeywell HFD135 one year ago for my studio apartment in New York City, shared by two people and a cat. The apartment faces a street and has no central air-conditioning. We also cook in the kitchen. The improvement in the air quality was amazing in the first few days after the purifier was installed. The air felt “clean”. Just like tasting bottled water (after)against chlorinated tap water(before), the difference was evident.
The filter has reduced the smell from the cat litter. My allergy symptom to pollen was reduced in the spring time. The air intake on the bottom of the unit traps a layer of cat hair and dust that can be vacuumed away. The effectiveness of the UV lamp cannot be seen, and it was manually switched off anyway. The fan noise can be heard at night even at low setting, but I understand the filter won’t work without sufficient air flow. For people who are very sensitive to noise, this can be a problem. But for people like me living in NYC, the street noise is much louder so I don’t mind the filter at all.
The IFD filter can be easily cleaned periodically by either vacuuming, or rinsing in water and dry. The only problem is that after a few months of use, dust began to gather around the bottom area of the unit as well as on the fan. The fan grills cannot be removed, so these places are not easily accessible and regular vacuum cannot reach. When the bottom air intake is blocked, the filter would become much less effective.
The air purifier works really well. The only flaw that I can tell over time is the difficult cleaning above and below the central filter. Still five stars for the improvement of the air quality.
