I can breathe!
Rating by : J. Garner,
My only gripe is that I waited so long to get one of these. Three stars for myself on that one.
I've got dogs. Two nasty, lovable dogs who shed their body weight in hair and dander approximately every twenty minutes. So my house, despite my best efforts, is pretty dusty all the time. Throw that in with pollen season, and it's just hard to breathe sometimes. Every night, from about February to May, for as long as I can remember, I have to sleep sitting up if I want to get any sleep at all. This is no way to go through life, but all the pills and NyQuils and whatever else haven't helped me a bit, so I was resigned to only getting seven months of decent sleep every year. Then I bought this, and it's changed everything for the better.
Firstly, and most obviously: I can breathe at night. And not just the one-nostril-works-and-I'm-glad-to-have-that-much that I might have lucked out and gotten every once in a while before, but full-on two nostrils like nature intended breathing. It's those little things that you take for granted that you miss the most when they're gone. When I look at the filters and see just how much stankum this thing is catching, that I had been inhaling before, I get a little ill. Just being able to breathe at night is worth the price of admission. But that's not all.
Everything in the bedroom isn't covered with an inch of dust after two days anymore. Not that anyone ever sees the bedroom but my wife and I, but still. Not much will make you think you're reliving the Dust Bowl like a film of dust over everything in sight, all the time. This has helped tremendously. It won't save you from ever having to dust again, but it won't have to be an everyday task anymore. So that's been nice.
I keep it in the bedroom and it does a really good job in there, and it's a decent-sized room, roughly 18x20 with ten-foot ceilings. With the ceiling fan running as well, it seems like all the air gets circulated through rather than just having a pocket of clean air right around the air cleaner. With it running at night, it's sort of a white noise machine too - not too loud, but loud enough to drown out little noises. And that's running in "normal" mode, setting #2. The "sleep" setting, #1, doesn't seem to be quite enough in my bedroom.
When I first got it, for the first week or so, it emitted a pretty strong ozone smell when it was running. That was pretty annoying, but it stopped doing that soon enough, and now the air is delightfully odor-free. And that's without using the included charcoal odor-eliminating filter, which you might use if you had a cat or were in the cheese-making business or something. I don't know. I wish I could get another one of these and run it in the rest of the house, but the floorplan is open and there's just too much air volume for one of these to work out there. But I'm still pleased with its performance in the bedroom (that's what she said) and highly recommend it.

Honeywell AirGenius4 Air Cleaner/Odor Reducer, HFD310
This is my third air cleaner that I have added to my household in the last year.
At this point, I know what features I really prefer and find helpful.
I appreciate the timer feature and use it daily and I consider it a must for all future purchases. It's so convenient to just set the timer after you turn it on and not have to worry about turning it off before bed or if it's in my bedroom turning it off after I get up in the morning. This unit has settings for 2, 4 and 8 hours. My other air cleaner has a 24 hour timer which I prefer. I run my cleaners longer than 8 hours.
With this unit the air cleaner oscillates which I think is the most important and the best feature. It is the first and only air cleaner I have seen with this feature. I think it really helps clean/distribute/deodorize the air better and faster and at this time I feel it is a feature I won't do without in future purchases.
Aside from the energy star rating I also like the quietness of the unit. This has a sleep mode that is extremely quiet, you can barely tell it's on. There are also the general, allergen and max modes. They get slightly louder as the levels go up but I think even at the highest setting it is rather quiet.
The Honeywell AirGenius 4 measures about as wide as my other air cleaners but for some reason it looks wider. With all it does though, I can easily overlook the appearance. (The control panel and width is almost 8 inches across)
A feature of this unit is that it also comes with an odor filter. This is in addition to the washable foam pre-filter but you cannot use this in combination with the odor reducing pre-filter. I really wish I could use both at the same time. The odor filter you throw out when it needs replacing.
Overall, I totally love the oscillating feature and the fact that this does a larger room (250sq.ft) which is perfect for my house because my kitchen opens in the living room area. The Honeywell AirGenius does a fantastic job of cleaning, deodorizing and distributing the air that I plan on getting one for my daughter's room.
There is a 2 pack odor reducing pre-filter on Honeywell's site for 19.95. The other filters are permanent because they are washable which will add up to quite a savings!
Works very well

I really like this Honeywell AirGenius4 Air. I have been using a much smaller, much noisier air cleaner with little success in my massage room. The smaller cleaner needed constant air filter cleaning and after just a few months the red light indicator came on and has never turned off no matter how many filter cleanings I do. I think the small size is just not conducive for the amount of sheet dust in my room. This Honeywell AirGenius4 is much quieter and has more cleaning power. I use it on General Cleaning, but will use the Allergen Reducer when spring comes. I don't have any issues with odor, so I can't really say whether it reduces the odors dramatically, but the dust from the constant changing of sheets has always been a problem and this machine works extremely well at reducing the dust. It feels crisper/cleaner in my room now and I feel like I can breathe so much better with this on. I am very pleased with this product.
