" ...  Super easy assembly, price is reasonable, our air quality is much better, less dust and smells go bye bye. ... We've notice the air breathes fresher with less dust.  ...  "

" ...  The instructions said, you can use the black brush attachment from your vacuum to vacuum off the pre filter. ... So, I used the black brush attachment and lightly vacuumed the charcoal filter and then took the charcoal filter outside and beat it a couple of times against a porch post and more dust came out of it. ... I can honestly say dust in the living room and the girls room has gone down a lot.  ...  "

" ...  The 5300-2 comes with 3 spare charcoal filters (in addition to the one charcoal filter in the filter pack), while the 5500-2 comes with no spare charcoal filters, only the one in the filter pack ... The HEPA filter in the 2 units is slightly different, the 5300-2 filter seems to be slightly thicker and has a lip around its circumference to hold the opaque mesh charcoal filter, while the 5500-2 HEPA filter has no lip in order to accommodate the thicker frame of its charcoal filter.  ...  "
