Editorial Review:
There's a significant difference when you use the Vornado AQS35 to clean the air in your room. Vornado's exclusive Vortex Action circulates and cleans the air in the room quickly, efficiently, and thoroughly. Distinctively styledGraystone finish leaves a small footprint so you can fit the AQS35 almost anywhere Supported by Vornado's 5-year warranty Color - Greystone
By continuously circulating a room's air through two filters, this portable air cleaner removes smoke, pollen, dust, animal dander, dust mites, molds, bacteria, viruses, and odors. Invaluable for those who suffer from allergies or asthma, the cleaner contains a true HEPA filter that is at least 99.97 percent effective at trapping extremely tiny particles--and actually gets better with use, as captured particles catch other particles. A prefilter reduces odors. The cleaner measures 22 by 13-3/4 by 10 inches and, because the air exits upward, can be placed behind furniture. Recommended for rooms up to 405 square feet, the cleaner has five speeds for different-size rooms, a quick-clean speed to filter a room's air within minutes, and a dirty-filter indicator. The HEPA filter lasts two to four years, the prefilter three months. (Two extra prefilters are included.) Filter replacement is simple: Lift off front, unhook elastic straps, remove prefilter and/or HEPA filter, position new filter(s), and hook up the straps. --Fred Brack

Purchased 12/05, melted and burned 4/07:
Loved the unit until the day 2 weeks ago where the motor stopped working on the lowest setting, melted the unit down and caught fire. Needless to say, it got tossed out and we purchased something different this time. Love our Vornado fans though...
Works great!:
This works so well, I am very impressed. It removed smoke from my house very quickly. The fan is loud, but then, at its highest setting it cleans out a 400 sq. ft. space, so, for that, you need a strong fan. I bought this hoping to clear out the smoke that came from improper use of our fireplace. If you have ever smelled smoke that has come back in from the fireplace, you know how badly it lingers. After two days it was all gone. And that was not even a constant 48 hours, so this really does the trick. I... more info
Not Pretty-but Nice:
This purifier works well and I am gratified and disgusted by the amount of thick dust that accumulates on the pre-filter. I have been changing these about once a month. We live on a noisy block in Manhattan and it does double duty as a sleep machine for us. I give it four stars because it is ugly and though nicely portable seems a bit cheap with the rubber band holders. I had an Enviracaire before and would recommend this over the Honeywell.
Amazing:
This well-built, powerful, well-designed filter does exactly what it claims to do. We live in an apartment in Manhattan and the kitchen lacks proper ventilation so any kind of cooking creates odors which linger for days or which requires the window being opened, a Vornado fan being used to draw in fresh air and opening the front door to create a draft, sending the aromas into the hallway and sharing them with all our next door neighbours. Less than ideal. Now we start to grill or cook, turn the AQS35 on... more info
