Spear & Jackson 38065 Air Purifier with HEPA & Carbon Filters, Air Cleaner for Allergies, Pollen, Pets, Dust, Smokers; Ionizer & Timer Function

Edit: Nearly 2 years later, with daily use, my air purifier is still working really well. I change the filters every 4-6 months. I no longer need sinus treatments , and antihistamines and inhaler only at peak pollen times of the year. Still highly recommended; has been a health game-changer for me.——————————————————-I’ve had mine a month now, but noticed an improvement on the very first night I used it.I suffer with seasonal allergies that cause allergic asthma, requiring a recovery inhaler. I suspect house dust also affects me, particularly in my bedroom, despite thorough vacuuming and anti-allergen bedding. I would cough for a couple of hours when I laid down, whistle when I breathed and frequently needed my recovery inhaler before bed. I had to start the day with antihistamines as would start coughing as soon as I woke up. My sinuses were also always painful, I often had cold symptoms and I would often wake up in the night, coughing.The first night I used the air purifier, I noticed an immediate reduction in coughing. I don’t think with allergies you can really attribute that to a placibo effect. It has worked consistently since purchase, and on some days I don’t need antihistamines until I go out. I haven’t needed my sinus spray at all for the last couple of weeks. I use it before bed, and start it in the morning as I get up and get ready. It has made a huge different to both my health and my sleep quality.There are a few useful features: the sleep mode is acceptably quiet, producing a restful hum like white noise. The timer means you can set it to 1/2/4/8 hours and it reliably switches itself off. There is a negative ion function and different strengths of air flow. The only two criticisms I have of it are that it blows cool air, which is very pleasant in the warm weather but might need the unit to be positioned further away in the winter. Also, that the timer switches the appliance off with a beep, which might disturb very light sleepers.Unlike older reviews, the replacement filters are available and were easily purchased from the Silentnight Amazon store. Their price is acceptable for 6 months of use, making this a cost-effective way for allergy sufferers to improve their health, in my opinion.Based on my own experiences, I would highly recommend this product, and have in fact already recommended it to family members with seasonal allergies. It’s a fair price, has really worked for me and I would not hesitate buy it again should this one wear out.

Excellent. I have the device in the lounge and it seems to really help with seasonal hay fever. It is quiet and non-intrusive although I'm not sure that I could actually sleep with it in a bedroom - not that I've tried! The other benefit is that the charcoal filter and/or ioniser seems to be quite effective at removing smells (like doggy smells) leaving the room with a fresh feel. The filters are not overly expensive to replace. The only slight downside I have found is that the unit turns itself off after approximately 12 hours so it can't be left running continuously. Highly recommend.

Easy to use and nice design.Powerful fan . The sleep function is hardly quieter or different than the previous setting. To say this is quiet is really misleading. If you live and sleep in a city or noisy area with road noise etc you probably won't notice it. However - it's a fan ! And it is as loud as my cooling fan we use during heatwaves and hotel air conditioning units .I do feel it is helping my allergies a little during tree pollen seasons so I'm preserving with it .

This air purifier is brilliant. I suffer dust allergy. It has sat by my bed the last 2 nights, and it feels like I've got fresh air in the room. I've used it in the lounge too, & no more sneezes! I wished I'd got one years ago. I say 5 stars and mean it.

1. We are used to having fans or devices on which make a noise all day and overnight (listen to ambient sounds also) - so if you're not like that, this fan DOES make noise at sleep mode, but it's like a slow well built fan level of noise rather than a turbine! The noise makes it perfect for us.2. I bought this when we got our new dog - have lived with dogs for years, but wanted to make sure the house had a lower level of dust/dander etc.3. It seems to perform very well in our downstairs space and makes the space smell clean and crisp. I leave it on full mode with the ion option on. Time will tell if it reduces dirt and picks up airborne particles.4. HEPA filter and carbon filter easy to install but remember to open it up and remove the plastic covers! (Basically follow the instructions!)5. It hasn't overheated yet, nor appears warm to touch at all.6. Left it on overnight without any issues.7. The HEPA filter, the manual estimates, should last about 6 months - and there are apparently ways to clean these yourself.The long and short is that this probably does the job of a lot more expensive HEPA filters. I place the intake vent at the direction of the door so that any air coming into the room would be filtered (in theory anyway).I would say that the room feels less musty and dusty just from a couple of days use. Low power consumption also.
