Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell 17000 HEPA QuietCare Air Cleaner
Customer Review: Not that loud
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't know what all the fuss is over this air purifier being 'too loud'. Yes, it's not as quiet as the term 'QuietCare' would have you believe, but really it just sounds like a regular fan. It quickly becomes background noise and you forget about it. As for whether or not it works - I can just say that subjectively the air smells better and I've been less congested since I bought it. Placebo vs. it actually working? I don't know.
The only complaint I have is that it says everywhere that it has a permanent filter - 'never needs changing'. But it does have a 'prefilter' that needs changing every few months. So it's really not that 'permanent', is it?
Overall, though, I like this product and plan on buying another one for my kid's room.
Customer Review: Good Air Cleaner
Summary: 4 Stars
I have allergy based sinus and asthma problems. Within a day or two of the filter running in our bedroom (with the door closed) I noticed I was sleeping much more soundly. I also wake up much less congested and more well rested. To me that speaks to the efficacy of these filters. As others have mentioned the filter can be loud on the high and medium settings. I like to run the filter on high when I'm not in the room and then keep it on low while I sleep. I would buy this filter again.Customer Review: preschool teacher
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently discovered that I have severe dust mite allergies. I found this on amazon and noticed good reviews so I purchased it. Everything everyone said about it is true. I notice less dust in the room, it feels cleaner somehow, and I wake up with less eye irritation. The only bummer is that it is fairly loud on the highest setting and it makes the room a little colder. If I could afford it though, I would purchase it for other rooms despite the noise and cold.Customer Review: Seems to work well.
Summary: 4 Stars
But honestly, how would you know it was making a difference? I bought it for my child's allergies, which seem to have subsided. But I don't know if that's because of the change of seasons; her growing older; my renewed efforts to vacuum and dust; new organic sheets; this air cleaner; or all or none of the above.
At any rate, I figured it couldn't hurt. And the white noise is nice if you have trouble sleeping.
Customer Review: It works!
Summary: 4 Stars
My allergies are slightly better, but not completely gone from the clean air this HEPA filter produces. I can tell the air is cleaner and carries less cat hair, dust, mold, etc, so this is a good thing. It isn't very quiet, you can hear the filter, even on low. Overall I am glad we got this filter, it may be big and clunky, but it works.
