Review on Winix 5500 2 Purifier PlasmaWave Reducing by Wendy Savold

The reason I bought this air purifier was my mother. She has severe allergies and to make matters worse we just rescued a cat. I am willing to try anything to reduce my mother's allergies. I first went to Costco looking for a Dyson Pure Cool air purifier. They didn't sell it anymore, but they had the Winix C535. I bought it because I was desperate. I brought it home, pulled it out of the box and removed the plastic cover on the filters. That's all. Turned it on and it cycled through air quality colors within a minute and started cleaning. My wife noticed that the air quality improved a few hours after I installed the unit. She said it got cleaner and cleaner. I've also noticed that my mother's allergic reactions have reduced, but not completely. I then bought a 5500-2 from Revain. From what I can see it's the same as the C535, but it could have a more powerful fan (judging by the sound) and one of the filters is washable. Also, both have remote controls and the built-in controls are the same. The front cover has a different design. I placed the 5500-2 in my living room and the C535 next to my patio door. We currently have many fires 20 miles from here. If you go outside, smoke can be felt. When Mom opened the patio door, both cleaning ladies lit up red. He noticed a change in air quality. That being said, from what I've read, it's best to keep doors and windows closed when using cleaning products in general so they don't have to work too hard filtering from the outside. air together with the room air. My mother still has allergies but I feel the air is better than before and that's the main thing for me. I also combine cleaners with the Dyson Animal 2. I vacuum at least once a day but I try twice. We have carpeted floors and sheds and dust like to collect there. I give this product 5 stars for air quality improvement and ease of use. It is a lightweight device that can be easily moved. Keep it running at full speed all day, every day. Filters have not yet been cleaned or changed. Test the effectiveness of the air purifier with the Temtop LKC-10005+ and it still makes the air much cleaner. The manual says the pre-filter on the C535 needs to be cleaned every 14 days, so I accepted that on the 5500 too (see for yourself). ).
