" ...  Hard to tell how much cleaner the air I breathed actually was but probably worth the peace of mind of actually trying to prevent hardcore lung damage whilst sitting in a a bubble of smoky cancer air.  ...  "

" ...  The best thing is auto speed setting whereby it switches to faster mode in case air needs more cleaning. ... Very quiet for the sq feet cleaning it does.  ...  "

" ...  I like the fact that it's lightweight and ejects the clean air VERTICALLY (going up). ... Most 'HEPA' purifiers are specified in terms of their ability to clean up particles with sizes 3 microns or greater, while the "PM 2.5" threat (particles 2.5 microns and under) is not specifically addressed in the spec.  ...  "
