Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell 50250-S 99.97% Pure HEPA Round Air Purifier
Customer Review: PERFECT AIR PURIFIER!!! AND HAS PERMANENT HEPA FILTER!
Summary: 5 Stars
Folks, don't waste your time with those Ionizers that I found can actually worsen allergy symptoms by releasing the chemical ozone. I do my research & this baby went straight into my family room & started working immediately. And I don't see the amount of dust floating through the air anymore. Don't let the "N" suffix on the model # confuse you... That just means it has the permanent HEPA filter, but you will get that with the regular 50250 as well, as long as it hasn't been sitting on a shelf for a few years. Mine did NOT have the "N", but I got the new model from Amazon. These folks know what they are doing!
The piano only has a small layer of dust after a week, but we used to dust every couple of days before adding this Honeywell unit. Just keep your doors closed as much as possible & let this beauty run on high all the time. DONE!

Customer Review: Excellent for reducing smoke odors
Summary: 5 Stars
When my boyfriend moved into a new apartment, he found out too late that the people below him smoke heavily and continuously. My eyes would water and burn and the smell was awful - it stuck to my clothes, hair and stuff. I desperately read tons of reviews on air purifiers and ultimately chose this one. It has made a huge difference! It has reduced the smoke odors dramatically. Other people have complained that it is noisy - and it is. But we turn it down to the lowest setting when we are watching t.v. or listening to music. Otherwise we leave it on high and it is no worse than all the other noise that comes with living in the city. In fact, it acts as white noise to drown out a lot of the street noise. His apartment is probably about 600 sq ft. This air purifier worked great for most of it, but we did end up needing a smaller extra one for the bedroom so we could run it with the door closed at night.Customer Review: Works, it makes noise, but that's how you move lots of air!
Summary: 5 Stars
This unit is amazing for yanking dust and such out of the air and making it go away. I'm not inclined to complain about the noise it makes, because the only way this thing can live up to its claim of being able to recirculate the air in a large room 6 times per hour is to move a *lot* of air, over a *large* space, and do it *fast*. Outside of a ceiling fan (which is a lot bigger) there is simply no other way to do it than with a blower that you're going to hear.
One reviewer said it sounded like a floor blower (or something like that). Well, it blows at an upward diagonal, but in terms of air volume it may come close. It has to, to get the whole room to circulate back to the unit and get sucked in. Want your room's air cleaned for *real*? Grab one of these. I used a Honeywell 13500 for over 10 years before it finally died and the 50250 took its place. No regrets.
Customer Review: Excellent for Dust and Dander
Summary: 5 Stars
Owned for 2 months.
So, I am not an expert on purification systems, but if you'd like to hear my layman opinion keep reading.
I have bad dust allergies to dust, not "bad dust" but bad "dust allergies" so any old dust really.
I also have two chinchillas that like to take "dust" baths (the dust is really a type of volcanic ash)
I bought this purifier after reading tons of reviews about it's value for the price, when I first turned it on I discovered why.
My allergies were 80% better in two days. I am not saying they miraculously went away, because they didn't, but they got a whole lot better.
It is moderately loud, but not terribly and i never had problems sleeping.
BOTTOM LINE: IT HELPS PULL DUST OUT OF THE AIR, AND ALLEVIATES SOME DUST/DANDER ALLERGIES.
I bought it for $170, and at that price it's worth the investment.
Customer Review: THROW OUT THE PILLS !
Summary: 5 Stars
After receiving my Honeywell 50250 (which DOES come with the PERMANENT HEPA filter), I put it on "High" and let it run, in my carpeted 266 sq. ft. bedroom, with the door shut. I slept that night on the sofa in my tiled-floor living room, downstairs. The next evening I noticed a significant change in the air quality in the bedroom. I changed the setting from "High" to "Low" (less noise) and slept in the bedroom.
Results: no more cervical pillow and/or nasal strips needed to help keep my airway open when I sleep. No more need for Singulair,Zyrtek,Wal-Dryl and Vick's nasal inhaler. I simnply did not experience the hacking cough
that didn't allow me to sleep at night.
Summary: Item works great, best bang for the buck. Large and noisy ? Nothing you can't handle in exchange for a good night's sleep !!
Buy it !
