AHAM Certified- Clean Air Delivery Rate ( verified by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers to meet strict room air cleaning standards.

Room size: small (up to 80 sq.ft) 5 air changes per hour**, medium (up to 149 sq.ft) 2.8 air changes per hour, large (up to 300 sq.ft) 1 air changes per hour.

** base on AHAM CADR Certification, when operated at the high fan speed setting. Air circulation depends on many factors, such as room size and configuration, and there is no guarantee that all of the air in a room will pass through the filter. Air changes per hour are based on AHAM CADR number x 60 minutes divided by the listed room size (volume) assuming an 8 ft. ceiling.

Compact size is ideal for the: nursery, bedrooms, kitchen or den.

Can be used on a table, counter, floor or used upright on a nightstand.

Can be on Horizontal or Vertical position

Extremely Effective Air Cleaning: 99% Efficient, Permanent HepaClean(tm) Filter, 3 Cleaning Power Selections, Optional on/ off Ionizer, Electronic Filter Clean Indicator, Illuminated Control Panel.

AHAM Certified Clean Air Delivery Rate ~ Certified Rating

From air cleaner to air cleaner, compare the CADR number. First, look at suggested room size. Then refer to the tobacco smoke, dust and pollen Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) numbers. The higher the numbers, the faster the unit filters the air.

This air cleaner is suggested for use in a single closed room up to 85 square feet.

Room size ratings conform to the AHAM Certification Program criteria of 80% smoke reduction. Higher Clean Air Delivery Rates provide improved performance in all room sizes. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in rooms where all doors and windows are closed.

Tobacco Smoke: 55

Dust: 55

Pollen: 65

These values represent performance that can be expected within the first 72 hours of operation

 "MinusA2 review" 2009-05-06
By Julie M. Peterson (Ashland, MA USA)
Shipping was super fast and customer service is wonderful at Rabbit Air. I can notice a little difference when I wake up as far as air purification goes but nothing dramatic for me anyway.

 "Pet Allergy Solution, Quiet & Efficient, Solid Air Purifier" 2008-12-31
By Paul Newton
I have bought almost a dozen air purifiers over the last decade to help with cat allergies that I have. They have ranged from those made from the Hunter, Honeywell, Bionaire, etc. These were all intermediate units, ranging in price from $150 - $250 with HEPA filter technology. I don't have any cats, but if someone comes into the house that has a cat, the dander irritation to my eyes is detectable in minutes and can last for days after that individual has left. All of the air purifiers that I have used have "worked" to some degree, but they have two major drawbacks -- noise and energy consumption. I was drawn to the Rabbit Air MinusA2 by the use of its Brushless Direct Current Motor, which does have the potential to be more frugal with power than a traditional AC motor. In addition, the marketing for the Rabbit Air promotes leaving the Air Purifiers on 24 hours, something I am reluctant to do with past systems because of the noise and electricity bills.



I bought the Rabbit Air MinusA2 hoping the extra cost could give me a final solution to the endless purchase of lesser systems. The Air Minus system is made of quality material and the design in which it draws air from the periphery of the front cover is quite attractive. (Not a typical radiator design) I chose the pet allergy custom filter for my specific needs and installation of the filter set and start of operation was a snap in about 15 minutes. The system was indeed quiet with the only the highest two settings making significant background noise. In normal operation I set the system to the middle (3) setting. The noise at this setting is barely noticeable. Since I did not want to wait months to see my utility bill or stand outside and watch my meter, I bought a power meter (P3 International P4460 Kill A Watt EZ Electricity Usage Monitor) thru Amazon and made a check. At the lowest setting, the Rabbit Air MinusA2 used 7 Watts and at the middle setting used only 14 Watts; the highest turbo setting came in at 46 Watts. This electrical usage is as advertised and makes the Rabbit Air MinusA2 a system I can leave on 24 hrs and still use less electricity than my older systems. I have since bought a second system for the upstairs of the house. I have them set at the middle setting during the day and run them in sleep mode during the night. I clean the pre-filter about once a month with a hand vacuum. The mood light is bright and I usually leave it off. There is an air quality sensor that changes the speed of the purifier based on the particles it detects. At first, I thought this was a gimmick, but if you are dusting or vacuuming, and stirring up dust, the sensor detects that added particles and steps up the system to a higher mode to clear the air. This air sensor system is quite sensitive and is a very good gauge on the air quality in the house.



In summary, the low power consumption more than makes up for the higher initial cost. I save on average $20 - $25/month/system in electricity costs over the older systems, etc. The low noise operation allows me to keep the system on at night with no disturbance and provides better air as I sleep. As far as the systems ability to clear the air, if I have a significant intrusion of cat dander brought in by friends or family, it usually takes 24 - 48 hours to clear the air back to normal - which is what I would expect for a typical 3-4 bedroom house. The dust accumulation in the house has been reduced and the overall air quality in the house seems better. I have had the systems just over a year at this point and am planning to get new filter sets. There has been no noticeable reduction in system performance at 1 year and I hope that continues.



Pros:

Energy Efficient (7- 14 Watts at settings of 1 and 3) Energy Star

Attractive Design, Easy to Move Around

Ultra Low Noise (particularly at settings of 1 - 3)

Air Quality Sensor (Automatically increases speed in response to added particles)

Good Air Clearance

Selectable Filters: Pet Allergy, Germ Defense, Toxin Absorber

Good Documentation



Cons:

Higher acquisition cost

Filter Costs are high but comparable to the older HEPA systems

 "Excellent air purifier" 2008-12-22
By Joyce Hoffman (New York, NY)
Keeps it promises. Quiet, effective but expensive. I needed to lower pet allergy symptoms and it seems to be working quite well. Also, pet odors have been eliminated.

If it is economical regarding filter changes, then I will be 100% satisfied but as it is new, I don't know what the future financial obligations will be.

 "Salvation has been found" 2008-12-07
By Toddias (Worcester, MA, USA)
My review is more of a personal story than a technical review as you can find all of the tech info about this product elsewhere. I am sure there our other folks out there who will be able to relate to what I relay below and I have not seen other reviews (of almost any air purifying product) like it, so I though that I would chime in...



My fiance has asthma and suffers from severe allergies - both seasonal and pet related. We have 3 dogs and she has suffered for years with asthma flair-ups because of them - to the point where she was constantly miserable, could not breath, and would need to take 2-3 doses of albuterol per day just to cope. Bedtime was especially difficult and it was extremely rare for her to not need the medication then.



We tried everything...doctor visits, allergy medications of all sorts, moving our bedroom to every room in the house...putting filters on our fans and A/C...leaving the windows closed or open...using a variety of (less expensive) air purifiers - both HEPA and Ionic. Nothing worked and she was in constant misery.



Enter the Minus A2. I was out of ideas and doing my Amazon homework about air purifiers, once again, when I came across this unit. It was expensive but I decided to spend the money and try it out. I could always return it.



It arrived quickly and well-packaged. In fact, everything about this product says "quality". I set it up and ran it (I opted for the Pet Allergy extra filter) for a few hours that night while she was at work. As soon as she entered the living room she noticed the improvement in the air quality. We moved it upstairs and, lo and behold, she did not need to use her medication for the fist night in months! For 2 weeks now we have moved it between downstairs during the day and upstairs at night and she has only had to use the pump 1 time - and that was after she cleaned the house for 4 hours one day. This product has been truly amazing. I really thought she would never find comfort in our house again but things are so much better now and it has made everything about our time in the house better.



We have yet to try it out in full allergy season but I will be buying another one before then so the whole house can be covered all the time. This was literally a saving grace type of product for us and I could not recommend it highly enough. I cannot guarantee it will work as well for others as it did for us, but we are highly satisfied.



Just as an aside...we tend to run the product on medium or higher speed. It makes a bit of noise but we like the white noise at night for sleeping so we leave it set there. I cannot vouch for how well it filters on the lower speed but the Low/silent speeds are very quiet indeed - if that is what you need. The lights on it are bright but we turn off the mood light and face the unit towards a wall to deflect the power light. I am a light sleeper but the added light does not bother me.



I hope this helps and we highly recommend this unit.

 "I should have returned it." 2008-07-25
By Duhkgeorge (Florida)
I purchased this about three months ago. My first impression out of the box was "oh hey, it's white!" I'm sure some, or most, of you will go "DUH!" but I had been looking at the other Rabbits and they were all silver so stupid me assumed this was silver. The mood light generally runs blue or you can switch the color, but the plain whiteness makes me not want to display this. Maybe I'm being picky but I really didn't/don't like the look.



It has the ability to mount to a wall or can rest on the floor. The mood light can actually be turned off (YES!!!) unless you want to use it as a night light.



Now to the important part... the filtering. I snagged the Toxin filter style because I assume that apartments always have toxins. According to the reading, they mine don't. (It has a light that is supposed to tell you when the air is polluted).



I have allergies and I didn't notice a BIT of difference with my allergies between having this and not. I was still sniffling and sneezing during my entire allergy setting. According to the air filter, there was nothing in the air. I took it off of automatic and put it on high manually and I still didn't notice a difference.



My purpose of purchase was to get out the allergies and this filter has not done a bit of good. Occasionally when I clean in the bathroom or cook something a little to well done, the sensor will turn red, but mostly it's a healthy blue (which means nothing in the air folks).



This device did not meet my expectations and for the price, I really can not see any value. I noticed no reduction of allergies even after showering and changing clothes. I believe I could have received the same quality by purchasing (2) cheap $[...] air purifiers at a wallmart or costco or something and still saved $[...]. If I'm paying out that much money, I expect some results.



Moving away from the product and to the company: I ordered and received the product within about three days and it came packaged well and in good condition. I just with the product had come close to my expectations.



Note... I accidentally hit two stars. Amazon isn't letting me edit it to one star. Obviously I see no value in this product so pretend it's a one star.

 "Decent " 2009-01-19
By Krystal Ng (bay area, ca)


This unit was bigger than I expected it to be, and not as quiet as I thought it would be either. It's not loud, but on medium to high settings you can clearly hear the motor going, I can only sleep easily with it on the lowest setting.



As for clearing the air, it does that decently well. Doesn't do too much as far as trapping dust, but it does remove a lot of airborne allergens. I noticed a week after buying this that I breathed a bit easier and my sinuses were more clear in my room than it was outside or in other people's houses.



For the price, it works well enough. You can probably buy a better one at a more expensive price.

 "Ionizer" 2008-09-10
By annie
My bf and I bought this air filter specifically for the fact we both have asthma and wanted a nice air filter that not only cleaned the air, but would not create ozone. No where in the reviews did it say that it was an ionizer so we bought it. We had it on for one night, it did a great job cleaning the air and was quiet but when I went to go break down the packaging, I noticed teeny tiny print on the bottom of the box that said: warning: includes ionizer that produces ozone. do not use if you have asthma.



We were both quite upset that we didn't see this warning on Amazon before we bought it. Had to return it! False advertising!

 "Warning: Deceptive product description, No HEPA, Yes Ionizer" 2008-09-07
By T. Deckert
I reviewed dozens of air purifiers in the search for the best, low-price one with a HEPA filter that did not use Ionizing technology (which appears to be especially risky for people with asthma). I purchased the Honeywell HFD-110 Quietclean Tower thinking I had found the perfect match...



...that is until the package arrived and the fine print on the box said that this was a "HEPA-Type" filter (ie. NOT a HEPA filter, which means not certified to the high standard of a HEPA filter). When you look at the filter up close it looks nothing like the HEPA filters I have seen (not dense at all, quite the opposite).



To make matters worse the HFD-110 IS an Ionizing air purifier (and you cannot turn this feature off), contrary to the Manufacturer's Description which would have you believe otherwise, "Compared to ionic air purifiers, the filter from the HFD-110 captures 12 times more pollutants..."



Look, I think this would otherwise be a decent Ionizing, Generic-Filter Air Purifier if it was presented honestly in the manufacturer's description.



Considering that I was COMPLETELY MISLEAD into buying exactly what I did not want, I will think twice before ever buying a Honeywell product again!

 "Ahhhhh!!" 2008-07-01
By M. Hudson (S.F. CA)
I noticed a difference right away! I have a small studio apartment and once I plugged this into the wall, my air was really clean within hours. I noticed a huge difference with my allergies. I also have a cat so the usual 'cat smell' that can linger was gone. I have friends that are severly allergic to cats, so I tested it out with them. I had the machine on high for about two hours, then invited them over. They had no symptoms in the 3 hours they were there! I definitely recommend this product to anyone that has allergies, or just wishes to breath cleaner, fresher air!

 "Okay for the price" 2008-06-24
By R. Burgess (Houston, TX United States)
I bought the Quietclean Tower a couple months ago. I like it except for the fact that it is not "quiet" at all. I can sleep with it all night only on the lowest setting. It seems to clean the air well but DOES have a ionizer which I do not remember seeing on the ad. It acts like a fan, which I like as it moves air very well. Other than the sound I think it is a good air cleaner. It captures lots of dust and the filters are easy to clean.

 "99% perfect" 2009-01-06
By Jeffrey the Barak
I will echo all of the positive reviews seen here and add some extra information.



Reading the various reviews, people may be worried if they are finding the right model in the stores, and if the model inside has the lifetime HEPA filter or not. The box may say permanent or it may say something else, with a sticker that says "permanent filter inside". This is all you need to know. I don't think it's even possible to find inventory that still contains the replaceable filter.



As a torture test, we put our unit in the kitchen when we roasted greasy chickens over the 2008 holidays. This usually stinks out our apartment for a week, and it still did. It was too much greasy smoke for the Honeywell. Worse yet, after moving the unit back to the office, there was a roast chicken scent for another 5 or 6 days. I was about to replace the one month-old carbon pre-filter, but then it finally wore off and now the unit seems as fresh as new.



But roast chickens aside, the difference in air quality in the office and bedroom (we move this unit around daily from home to office) is very impressive. Dust is down, chemical odors are gone, (I sell glue and solvents), and the computers are staying clean. (When we had an ionic breeze, the electronics would attract more dirt, and the air would be dusty, now the air is clean and so is the equipment).



I did so much research before buying this and I am very happy I chose this unit. I run it on low for about 16 hours a day, occasionally on high after making the bed in the morning, and only turn it off at night (for silence).



I'm considering getting a second one, but then its so easy to move...



___________

Update: March 11th 2009, used every day since December 11th (3 months) and still working perfectly and very effective, without any filter change or vacuuming. The only odd thing is that the filter indicator lights seem unchanged so maybe they don't work. I don't know, but I will try to wait another three months before changing the pre-filter and vacuuming the permanent HEPA filter.

 "works great but loud" 2008-03-12
By B. Bruner (Spring, TX)
I just want to say if you want clean air. Get one of these. Very loud on the high setting but after a day or two it becomes white noise and you would not even notice. I am about to buy another one for the bedroom.

 "not sure" 2008-01-20
By Sophie (Kandahar Afghanistan)
I'm not too sure what to say...is it bad? no...is it great? no. I bought this to help purify the air in my office here in Afghanistan. Let's just say to start that is no easy task!! The unit seems to be functioning well enough but it's a little on the loud side and it really drops the temperature in a room. It has not had any issues and seems to be working...as I said, the air here is terrible to begin with so it's hard to say if it's really making a dent. I'd like to think it is.

 "sick wife" 2009-07-15
By Edward J. Graff (naples, fl)
In just 3 weeks my wife's allergy attacks have almost subsided entirely. In addition I am getting a better night's sleep as she has stopped snoreing. We have purchased similair products before but this is the best by far.

 "seems to work pretty well" 2009-06-24
By Brian Nowak (vermont)
It is somewhat large, but it seems to work really well. quiet mode is really really quiet. essentially, from what i gather, the fan works on a minimum air flow system. so the more clogged up the filter becomes, the more the fan works to maintain the air flow, once it gets to a certain point, it lets you know you have to replace it.



in between replacing filters i've used tissue paper over the air intake, it seems to work pretty well, not as well, but good enough.



large, but worth it i think, the way it spits out air helps keep the room circulating, just makes it nicer all around.



i give it 4 because if your loaded, i'm sure there's something better, but for the average joe, its good. i've had mine for over three years now, running almost the whole time without issue.

 "Does not work as reviewers stated." 2009-05-25
By Gracie Hazy (Glendale, CA)
I don't know why they say that this is a good air purifier when in fact I do not see any dirt on the filter. Maybe I got a lemon or a unit that doesn't work. I am using this unit for more than two months but whenever I inspect the filter I don't see any dust trapped on it. Are those bogus reviewer or not...you decide.

 "The one to get!" 2009-05-03
By Jeremiah D. Jester (Seattle, WA United States)
This is an all around great air purifier. I live in a turn of the century home with wood floors. Prior to owning the Filtrete, dust and dog hair covered our main floor. However, within days after starting the unit we had about a 90% drop in dust, dander and dog hair. I have the FAP02 model as well and plan to get another FAP03 for our basement soon.

 "I think I'm in love with this filter" 2009-02-21
By C. Orford
We got this filter to solve my fiance's cat allergy problems. Every day, I lift up the filter door and this thing has managed to suck down about a full cat worth of hair, let alone keeping any dander from floating around in the air. It's sort of amazing just how much power this fan has to pull in dust, fuzz, and in the case that happened yesterday, an entire ball of tape the cat was playing with. I'm very impressed, it's totally taken care of allergy problems and is also keeping dust bunnies from forming! And it's super easy to clean and looks nice too!

Great air filter that produces a noticeable difference in air quality. I lived in an older apartment and developed allergic reactions to dust/mold in the building. After trying allergy medications with no results, I opted for this air filter. Within the first day of running it, my sneezing stopped completely.

 "Good Air Purifier for the Price" 2008-03-16
By T. Williams
It doesn't explicitly state it in the product description, but the Air Purifier comes with a permanent HEPA filter and one pre-filter. The pre-filter is supposed to be changed every three months and the HEPA filter is supposed to be vacuum cleaned every six months. The pre-filters cost between $10 and $15. I've only had it running for several says and the pre-filter is already covered with dust, so it's really doing what it's supposed to be doing. What's more is that the air is so clean and crisp. The instructions say that you should run the air purifier 24 hours a day, but I think that's a huge waste of energy and only run it when I'm in the room, which seems to work just fine. It does make a lot of noise, but it's white noise, like a window air conditioner or a box fan. I almost didn't buy it because of I was afraid the noise would keep me up at night, but was pleasantly surprised that the white noise helps me sleep more soundly through the night.

 "Honeywell 50100 Enviracaire Air Purifier" 2007-02-06
By N. Svendsen (Urbana, IL United States)
I own two of these air filters and I love them. These air filters do an excellent job of cleaning the air in relatively short order and I keep these air filters in the bedrooms for clean air sleeping. I recently moved into a older house that has dirty HVAC ducting and while I am slowly cleaning those ducts out I needed a temporary fix. Additionally, I own a dog that sheds a lot and I have a child with severe allergies. Additionally, I am also an allergy sufferer (mold and cats). After doing extensive research on air filters, I decided to go with this Honeywell 50100 HEPA filter. There are a couple of reasons for decision. 1) The overall cost of this filter is the lowest (unit + replacement filters) I found at the time. I bought the unit for around $80. The average HEPA filter replacement is around $20. 2) The second reason I bought this unit is that I like noise. This is not one of those whisper quiet HEPA filters and that is OK by me. I am a big fan of white noise (after all I have two kids that like to get up early and make noise). This unit on its lowest setting is fairly quiet. However, the medium setting is loud and the high setting sounds like a jet passing overhead. Most of the time I have the unit set on medium. This is loud enough to drown out the garbage man picking up trash at 4 am. I have been happy with Honeywell products in the past and this is no exception. I also own a larger Honeywell HEPA filter that uses the same filter type as these units so I buy them in bulk. These filters also use a prefilter that goes around the outside of the HEPA filter. Using this filter extends the life of the HEPA filter tremendously. I vacuum the prefilter every couple of months or so. I recommend this filter to anyone who appreciates a well made decently priced HEPA filtration unit and doesn't mind a bit of noise.

 "Good Circulation, loud & does not remove odor" 2009-07-18
By M. Beauford (Chicago, IL USA)
We bought this air purifier for our sons room which is over a crawl space. The idea was to circulate the air & remove some of the musty odor. 1)the purifier vibrates the floor, causing increased noise, 2) the musty odor has not decreased,the air does not feel/smell crisp, 3)if you turn the machine off or unplug it the filter clean sensor resets itself, as if you put a new filter in. Which is not good, that means you have no idea how dirty the filter is.

 "Replaces fan by bed for much cleaner air." 2009-06-05
By C. Potgeter
I sleep with a fan on.

I always have. Even a small fan on low, enough to make some white noise, and make a gentle breeze. Been doing this since I was a wee tyke.

I've used many fans over the years, but the one thing they all had in common was they all got dust on the blades quite bad, and much sooner than you'd think, because they ran all night.



I had a honeywell 11520 purifier to help me with asthma and allergies.

It helped, but it wasn't a night and day difference.

Enter the 17005.

I have mine sitting on it's side, pointing at my pillow, on low 24/7.

A quiet gentle breeze of fresh air, no dust to clean off the blades, just replace the pre-filter when it gets dirty, and vacuum out the outside of the filter.

I sleep better, the dust is much reduced, I sleep in a 'bubble' of clean air.

If you use a fan when you sleep, try using this instead. You will throw your fan in the trash.

(Also, I wake up able to see clearly right away, no need to rub my eyes in order for them to focus right away.)

You will honestly feel better when you wake up and you don't need a big noisy unit, because you're running it on low speed, right where you need the fresh air.



Try it!

 "nice product - really nice price!" 2009-04-13

This product pretty much lived up to its description EXCEPT some reviews had said it has a lifetime filter. The owner's manual says the filter will need to be replaced every 1-3 years; so that's kind of a disappointment. And this product is not very quiet on high; but we sleep with a box fan on anyway at night to muffle noises, so that was fine with us. All-in-all, we were pleased. And the price was the best one I found online.

I have bought 3 different air purifiers ranging from small rooms to large. This product is good for medium sized rooms and although it is loud on medium or high settings, it does the job well and has a permanent true hepa filter. The price I just saw on Amazon here was a good $50 less (Target $125)than what you can get at retail, so I must say - I would have bought it here had I known.
