Not a bad air purifier
By R. McAdams
The Fellowes AeraMax 100 Air Purifier is a good little air filter/purifier. I don't like to rate these things without trying them for at least a whole month, so I can report on their long-term usefulness and air quality effectiveness. I am pleased to say that this unit does a very good job of cleaning the air in a room more than 3 times the size it is rated for. There isn't much more to say about an air cleaning unit other than the details, so, here are the pros and cons:

PROS:
-it saves floor space by being tall and sleek
-it is quiet (a little too quiet for me, actually, I like my air purifiers to double as white noise generators)
-it has an automatic air sampling mode (that's what the "AeraMax" does) and will adjust fan speed accordingly
-You can turn OFF their ionization field (which is great, because ionization fields I cannot turn off, are a deal breaker for me, I don't trust that technology)
-it has a built-in carry handle
-the filters fit snugly in the unit, and don't get dislodged when carrying it around the house.

CONS:
-It doesn't come with the full manual, you have to download it from their website. For a unit that costs over fifty dollars (in this case triple that), that is INEXCUSABLE!
-the controls are "touch" controls. I HATE touch controls on anything but a phone or tablet!
-The LED lights for the interface are way too bright to be used in a bedroom at night, and cannot be dimmed or turned off.
-The included ionization field is ON by default, and unless you download the manual, you probably won't figure out that to turn it OFF you hold down the button/touch field for the ionization field for 5 seconds until it beeps (you can turn it on again the same way

Overall, the core job it is supposed to do (clean the air) it does very well. I have tried it in a bedroom overnight in place of our current one, and it worked fine. I have tried it out in the main rooms of the house, and I have tried it in specific situations to clear the air (such as after cooking Italian food, Chinese food, etc.), and it performed fine. It is a good little unit.

4 stars :)

Fellowes AeraMax Air Purifier
By C. A. Boswell
This air purifier by Fellowes lived up to my expectations. The set-up was so straightforward that I didn't even need to open the instruction manual. The vertical design allows the product to fit in small spaces - I have mine in between my sofa and the wall in my living room. The air quality sensor is VERY sensitive and can change the fan speed if you have it set on 'auto'. The light changes from blue to yellow/red every morning when I am making my coffee in the kitchen! It also tends to kick on when I take out the trash. If you are looking for a 'smart' air purifier that switches itself to a higher fan speed when odors are detected, then this is a good choice.

awesome
By Robin Saunders
I would definitely recommend this product. It does my whole home I could tell the difference 15 minuyes after I turned it on. My son has asthma and he has not been coughing like before
