Product Description 2- SpeedsFeaturing Quick CleanFor all OdorsContinuous cleaning action
Amazon.com Review Equipped with a quiet fan to draw in foul air and expel clean air, this appliance reduces odors near their source, making it useful in bathrooms and the kitchen and for pets (keep it near the cat's litter box) and tobacco smoke. The on/off switch permits either normal speed or QuickClean speed for fast results. An indicator light shows the unit is operating, and a month-to-month dial serves as a filter-change reminder. The unit comes with an all-purpose carbon filter. Replacement filters are available separately, as are specialty filters for pets, tobacco, and diapers. The expected one-month filter life is with the unit running continuously; if it's turned on only occasionally, the filter should last for up to four months. The top snaps open for easy filter replacement. The unit plugs into a wall socket and works best within 6 feet of an odor source. It measures 6-3/4 inches wide, 8-1/4 inches high, and 3-1/2 inches deep and carries a two-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

I use this product to get rid of the smoking odor in our living room. It works! If you hold a cigarette near it, you can see it sucking all the smoke. I also like the feature where the tiny light on top turns red to indicate that its time to change the filter. I have had this for almost 2 years now and its still going strong. Highly recommended!

I have owned the HB 04271R True Air now for about a month and it functions as advertised. I use it in a adesignated area about the size of a medium sized bathroom with a tobacco replacement filter. The designated area is my "smoke room". Before I installed it my roomate would constantly complain about the tobacco odor in the air. Now the complains have stopped. I plan to continue using this until I quit smoking.
My Apartment has No Smell! May 19, 2008 Sharre Lotfollahi (Los Angeles, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I live in a one-bedroom apartment with 2 small dogs and a turtle. Needless to say, sometimes there would be less-than-pleasant odors coming from my apartment. Since I've been using this plug-in, I don't smell anything when I come home. That's great! My only complaint is that you can hear the fan, even on whisper mode. But, really, it's not a big deal.
Works OK for the price January 1, 2008 SerenityNow (San Diego, CA United States)
I am on my second unit now. The first one lasted about two years running continuously before it died. I was pretty happy with it for use by the cat box. Cat litter dust does clog the filter pretty quickly, but I just vacuum the dust off occasionally. I am very disappointed with the second one though, it is much louder than the first one. Some of the reviewers compare the loudness to that of a computer fan. The 'whisper mode' on mine is much louder than any computer that I own. For this reason I am hoping that it breaks soon so I can try another brand. Although if Amazon still has them on sale for $12, I may just get another one and hope that it is quiet like the first one I had. It is worth taking the risk at that price.

This item is way too large. Far more than I expected for a plug in.
