I bought this air purifier 6 months ago to put in a closet where we keep our kitty litter. Before I got the purifier, despite frequent cleaning, the cat box would periodically make the whole closet and the room it was attached to smell like kitty excrement. Not fun. I was skeptical about buying this (how could something so small make the smells go away?), but it’s SPECTACULAR. It has totally eliminated the kitty litter smells. I’m currently buying another one to go next to my child’s diaper pail. This device totally blew away my expectations.

One very small thing: the purifier buzzes softly when it purifies (it goes in bursts, so it’s not constant), so if those kinds of noises irritate you, you probably shouldn’t put it where you can hear it. We can’t ever hear it in our closet, but out in the open, it might be more noticeable.

Surprisingly good at keeping my closet fresh.

Cons:

- uses uncommon batteries that i never have around the house

- has a dc plug, but it is too short to reach any outlet

I have been looking for a closet air purifier for my walkin closet for quite a while. This really fits the bill, is compact and seems to be doing an excellent job.

After 2 months of use, am still undecided. Maybe it’s the application? We’ve hung in a cat-box closet in a tiny NYC apartment. Seemed to mitigate odors? But then, we’ve also been experimented with different litter formulations. Sorry, insufficient info so far.

I had bought these (maybe not this brand) at Sharper Image years ago. They worked for 5 or 6 years. One of these that I recently purchased is still going, but the other one is very loud (squealing) so can not be used. The one that is still working does not have the strength to do the closet, so it isn’t as strong as the Sharper Image brand. (on the other hand, Sharper Image doesn’t sell them anymore, which is why I went looking) If they work these are wonderful, leaving the closet smelling very clean. I lost the info on my order so don’t know the specific store and can’t return I assume. That was my mistake.
