I live in a 650 sq ft apartment and this purifier has been perfect for the price. I have a Pomeranian who has breathing problems and sheds a lot. I have asthma and air quality has a greater impact on me than ever before. The pictures speak for themselves. Great little unit. The apartment’s odors were immediately and continually neutralized.

What Customers Say

I have a semi-finished basement, I changed it to my man’s cave. The wife always said that there was a musty smell in the basement. After confirming that there is no leakage, no groundwater, etc., I purchased an air freshener. That’s no use. So I researched an air purifier and bought this. I am very satisfied with it. I ran on High for a few days with the UV light on. After a few hours, I noticed that the air had become “lighter” and it smelled better. After running at high speed for a few days, the smell completely disappeared. I turned it off, went downstairs, and the smell completely disappeared. Now I may open it every two days. Drive it up high when I’m there, then turn it off. In terms of price, this thing does a good job of cleaning the air.

What Customers Say

Love this product! This is the perfect solution for my litter box! I have had an ionizer in the past, but I don’t like the smell it leaves… Obviously fresh air is not my thing, haha. The product can eliminate peculiar smell without leaving any odor. I tried scented plug-ins (not very economical), it can only cover up the smell, but it smells like “shitrus”…not pretty. Even my cat likes it! I like that it is a simple plug-in that does not require a footprint. I bought two, and the other was in the seldom-used living room in front of the house. Now I don’t worry that guests (or myself) will be overcome by the “smell of the day” when they walk into the front door. The fan’s noise is so small that you won’t even notice it. It’s kind of like the hum of your refrigerator, you’re used to it! I highly recommend this product and I am glad to find it!

If you put it on the table, it will continuously improve the air quality. Special reward: The design of AC4100 is very attractive.

Plastic smell.. It has lasted about 3 to 4 nights.

What Customers Say

I live in a 500 square foot apartment in San Diego. This building is more than 100 years old, so I have a mold problem, and it always smells like an “old apartment”. I tried my best to get rid of the odor. I often open the windows and turn on the fan to keep the air circulating, but every time I go home, I still smell that stale smell. I bought this for my room, hoping it will help eliminate the smell and also collect mold spores. I left for a two-week trip and let the purifier run when I left. When I got home, there was a noticeable difference, and the smell was reduced by a ton! I like it so far!

The Not-So-Good

Keep the air fresh. Not super, but the fan helps to move the air.
It’s louder than expected, it sounds like a portable fan-not particularly loud

What Customers Say

I admit that I doubt whether this will really have any effect on the smell of the trash can. To our surprise and happiness, it works. We have a litter box in the closet in the hall. There is a socket in the closet, and this is where we put this light. If you are close to it, you can hear the hum of the motor, but it is not part of the house where we spend a lot of time, so this is not a big problem for us at all-if you are considering plugging it into the kitchen or home In the middle of the activity room, I find this annoying. If this helps provide context, it must be lower than the low volume on a white noise machine. Anyway, we are regular cleaners of the trash bin, but it still seems to always smell bad. Within a few hours of inserting this thing…there has been a difference. There is no smell. After a week or two-there is still no smell. We asked people to come over and ask them, and they agreed-there was no smell. I highly recommend this device!

Germ Guardian True HEPA Filter Air Purifier with UV Light Sanitizer, AC5350B

AC5350B is a stylish, space-saving air purifier that is often ranked as one of the best GermGuardian air purifiers.

With its 4-stage air purification process, the device can ensure almost 99% cleaning efficiency of bacteria and dirt. However, it strongly relies on HEPA and UV-C light technology, which means that in the long run, you will have to perform some maintenance services. The air purifier has the following advantages. The use of a HEPA filter ensures that all visible or invisible dirt particles can be effectively cleaned in just a few hours. On the other hand, the combination of UV-C light technology gives you confidence that you will almost never be affected by viruses, bacteria and organelles that cause common diseases. Use activated carbon filters to eliminate odors and common household gas types. After all, charcoal or activated carbon is the best tool to eliminate smoke and odors, because it is essentially non-porous, so it can bind to tiny gas molecules. The combined use of multiple cleaning systems greatly improves the efficiency of the equipment. After all, it has a cadr rating of 100+ for removing dirt, smoke, and dust pollen.

The Good

Lightweight and beautiful-with the appearance and compactness of its entertainment equipment, you can easily use this equipment to decorate your office or living room because it can remove dirt and pollen for you.
Equipped with 4 packs of carbon filters, longer service life
Simple to use and easy to maintain
Thanks to the additional carbon filter, it requires almost no maintenance
Suitable for medium-sized rooms, preferably 234 square feet.

The Not-So-Good

The design of the purifier is to suck in dirty air from the back and blow it out from both sides. However, due to poor vent design, it feels like the purified air is actually flowing backwards.Now suppose I want to put the purifier in the corner of the room, it will only circulate the air in that small corner!
The HEPA filter needs to be replaced regularly, perhaps every eight months.
Additional function
It has five speed settings, some of which make the device run silently. However, the faster the speed setting, the louder the noise of the device.

What Customers Say

Great product, I have 2 internal dogs, 4 children, and there is a lot of dirt in the backyard. Our 2 year old is allergic to her skin (scabby). Sometimes when working in our home gym, when I breathe heavily, I can see dust particles floating in the air, and then besides feeling bad, I think my mood is worse. We have a smaller version, the price is about half the price, which is good, but too small for the outside of the bedroom. This incident changed our children’s allergies. The air not only felt better, but also smelled clean.

What Customers Say

I like three fan settings. If you don’t want to listen, the first one is very quiet. The second one is very soft. I usually use that one because kids love it. The third very smooth white noise I used during my nap. Several children did not sleep during the nap time, but the sound quickly knocked them down! I put it under the changing table where the diaper trash is. I like that it completely eliminates the traces of diaper smell. All I have to do is to insert it. Very satisfied with the purchase.

Need to clean it often

What Customers Say

As a mother of 3 children and two dogs, my husband and I have always wanted to ensure that our indoor air quality is good. We learned from a friend that the air purifier produced by Germ Guardian is very good. When looking at all their options, we knew we needed HEPA filtering. There is also an air purifier, which can also eliminate odors. There is only a small space in our home for it-we found this air purifier to be very suitable. The size is right and still has all the functions we hope to improve the air quality of the home. Easy-to-use controls are available out of the box. After several nights of running, we have noticed that the air around our house has improved. Highly recommend and completely satisfied!

What Customers Say

I received my AC9200WCA a few days ago and I have fallen in love with it! ! I have tried several air purifiers at home, and this is the most powerful device I have ever experienced. I live in an old house with carpet, so the bedroom upstairs starts to feel (and smell) musty; I need a quick solution to combat mold growth and my family’s seasonal allergies and my son’s asthma. One night with this device, the air in the room is completely different-more breathable, lighter, fresher and cleaner. The musty smell is completely unnoticeable. It’s surprisingly quiet in size and creating powerful, so you don’t need to run 24-7 hours uninterruptedly to feel the significant difference in air quality. I would recommend this air purifier to anyone-it is worth every penny! !

Frequently Asked Questions about GermGuardian Air Purifier

Is GermGuardian a good air purifier?

As a classic air purifier, GermGuardian is not the best brand. For example, Blueair and Coway air purifiers have higher cadr ratings.

However, GermGuardian has a feature that most air purifier brands cannot provide: UV-C filters. According to reports, UV-C light has a bactericidal effect, and the purpose of using this GermGuardian filter is to eliminate bacteria. Namely bacteria and certain viruses.

In this sense, GermGuardian has indeed created a pretty good air purifier.

Can the GermGuardian filter be washed with water?

GermGuardian filters are not washable. Most of the filters in the air purifier (including those used by GermGuardian equipment) cannot be cleaned.

For example, it is well known that true HEPA filters are not washable and need to be replaced regularly once, twice, or even three times a year.

However, the main GermGuardian UV-C filter does not need to be cleaned. This is a permanent filter. This means that you do not have to incur additional costs for replacing the filter, which is always an advantage.

After reading the GermGuardian air purifier reviews above, the only other step you should probably do is to re-evaluate the air purification needs of your home and decide which model is best for you. After all, there may not be other models of air purifiers that have as efficient air purification systems as those made by GermGuardian. These devices ensure that all types of air pollutants are properly treated, regardless of their size or notoriety.
