Customer Reviews of Alen A350 Air Purifier
Customer Review: breath free
Summary: 5 Stars
After much research and wasted money on air filters that simply did not work, I have found an air filter which I am satisfied with and could afford. Even the replacement filters were reasonably priced compaired to the others.
I was discouraged when most of the top rated air purifications systems I was looking at were priced out of my price range; $700 and above, then I happened upon the Aleon and was pleasantly surprised.It was reasonably priced and had an eviormentally friendly ionizer option,features I was looking for.
The Aleon filter when set on 2 creates white noise which even my noise sensative partner can tolerate. I wake up able to breath, feeling refreshed, a first for me. And my partner had to agree that even he was breathing easier in the morning.
I am very satisfied.
Customer Review: Good product, bad packaging
Summary: 4 Stars
We were quite dissatisfied when we first received the product as the device was lacking the 'factory-fresh' look. The box looked used and was opened, the cord wasn't coiled and was crushed between the device and the styrofoam packaing. And there was dirt and dried-hardened crud on the surface. Fortunately, the dirt and crud were removable.
After having some exchanges with customer service, who guaranteed it was neither used, nor refurbished, we decided to keep it.
As for the device itself, we have been using it for a few weeks now and have been quite happy with it.
I do recommend this product but i can't give it 5 stars because of the poor packaging.
Customer Review: This one actually works
Summary: 5 Stars
After having tried other air purifier models I have finally found something that helps with our allergies. It's amazing to see how dirty the filter is when it is time to change the filters - kind of like when you empty a vacuum cleaner bag. It's hard to believe there is so much stuff in the air. I have found it much easier to replace the filter every 6 months than having to clean a filter weekly. The unit is a bit loud on the highest fan speed setting and found it works best to run it on speed 3 or 4 before I go to sleep and then lower it to speed 1 or 2. On the lower fan speed settings it sounds more like white noise and after a couple days of running the unit I forgot it was on.Customer Review: A good buy
Summary: 4 Stars
It definitely removes odor from the air in my studio apartment, which is about 450 square feet. It is particularly effective with the "Ionizer" turned on. However, I only use this feature occasionally (e.g., right after cooking fish), as I worry about potential adverse health effects. I don't know whether such concern is truly warranted, but after the debacle with Sharper Image's purifiers, better safe than sorry.
The only drawback I can think of is the cost of replacement filters. That said, given that the machine is cleaning the air in your living space, something's got to handle the dirt/dust/germs, thus the price for a new filter is hardly a deal-breaker.
Customer Review: effective and a good value
Summary: 5 Stars
The only caveat is that I've had it for but a month. That said, it's still as quiet (low speed) as I need. Additional speeds are noisy. Keeping the filter clean is easy- after I figured out how to access it. Which brings me to one small issue. The instruction book is an after-thought at best. Good illustrations to accompany the too brief text would improve things. Perhaps their site could be more thorough in providing info. However, it is worth noting that the few questions I had, were answered quickly and completely. Time will tell, particularly regarding the quietness that it currently exhibits, but so far it's a very effective unit. It delivers as promised.
