I couldn't possibly disagree more with the one reviewer who gave only one star and a horrible review.
FIRST OF ALL I first purchased from Amazon the HONEYWELL COMPACT AIR PURIFIER (MODEL # HHT-011). I liked it and wanted to buy another one. I then saw this Vics model that looked EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE ONE SITTING IN FRONT OF MY COMPUTER.
I took the risk for the MUCH LOWER PRICE and ordered the Vicks model. TURNS OUT THEY ARE REALLY TRULY EXACTLY THE SAME/IDENTICAL PRODUCT ... with only 2 Differences.
1. The little inverted triangular decorative plastic tab was colored blue/green to match the Vicks brand, while the Honeywell was the same color as the off white unit.
2. The 'art work' and colors on the cardboard box were totally different, the exactly the same size/shape/type as the more expensive Honeywell. The smaller closeup pictures and descriptions on the sides WERE EXACTLY THE SAME.
ANYWAY ... I would actually only give the unit a 4 star rating overall that would apply to the Honeywell and Vicks units equally. I have terrible allergies that come and go and it is hard to tell how much good they purifiers actually do for me. But READ THE REVIEWS FOR THE HONEYWELL model and base your decision on that ... if you are considering this purchase.
btw I just ordered 2 (two) more of the Vicks units today to add to my current 2 ... one for each room.

I leave this unit running constantly and it seems to work fine. I have owned it for about a year now and it is still going strong. I smoke in the room where it is utilized and it does seem to cut down on the smoky smell. Its a good unit for the price.Best Deals for Vicks Nursery TableTop Air Purifier
Please, please, if you do decide to purchase this product, be aware of my experience. *If you hear an unexplainable faint clicking noise, check the inside of the device by removing the filter cover (in a dark area, of course) for defective wiring that causes audible sparks.*I was going to put this in my infant son's room, but instead wanted to test it in a hallway beforehand. For a couple of days I would hear a faint clicking sound but dismissed it. Finally, one night I discovered it was this purifier that was sparking consistently, creating the clicking noise.
I understand this may have been a fluke. But certaintly, you wouldn't want anything in your house to be sparking around your CHILD, especially while you are all ASLEEP. What would happen if someone were to touch the insides with wet hands while it was plugged in?! Well, I didn't want to find out, so I returned it promptly.
Honest reviews on Vicks Nursery TableTop Air Purifier
I have had this product running 24 hours a day for over 2 years in my sons room with no issues. Once a month I clean the unit and replace the filters as needed. I can't believe how much dust it cleans out of the air. With 2 large breed, long haired dogs I put this little filter through a lot.It is not very loud and caused no disruption in my son sleep. Definitely worth it, there's a lot of clean in that little machine.
