    Be very careful of purchasing Ionizing air purifiers. Especially if you have allergies or asthma. There are only 2 that are recommend by Consumer Reports and any other website articles I've read. They are the Friedrich C-90A and Whirlpool 45030{+1}.

    I personally would like to try the Friedrich, but I've had problems with my lungs in the past when I've been around other ionizers.

    I don't think it's worth it to buy any of these units because they're less expensive. Being exposed to too much ozone is not healthy.

    I read the same articles, which is why I decided to go with the Fredreich. Actually, the room sized Ionic breeze ($399+shipping) is more than what I paid for the Fredreich ($292 with shipping.) Even the midi size Ionic Breeze is a bit more expensive ($299.) Granted, I'm comparing new to used, but that doesn't matter to me, as long as the unit works well. I've also noticed that the dust buildup in the room has ben reduced to almost nothing. Colorado is really dry so there is a lot of dust in the air.
