Pros: efficient, reliable, easy to change filters
Cons: noisy on high, shape/size may be a consideration

I'd been having problems in the past few years with my nose stopping up at night when I slept. I'd wake up with a severely dry mouth from this and it was driving me nuts. During the day I'd be fine. I'd recently inherited my first cat (I already had a...

Cons: None. NONE!

Let Me Start by saying that we live very close to Houston, TX. We are 30 minutes away from the downtown area of the Second (at the moment, it flip flops from 1st to 2nd) most poluted city in the US. So we decided to buy an Air Purifier for that reason...

Pros: Works great on higher settings
Cons: Quite noisy on higher settings
