Review on GermGuardian AC4100 Sanitizer Allergens Guardian by Leandro Gray

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Updated report - mine burned out in less than a year. Never again.

My bedroom feels and smells better since I installed it. I run day and night I have to buy a few more. I have another air purifier in my room but it didn't do the job as well as this one. Update June 2017: I've been using this air purifier in my bedroom for about a year. At first the blue light only lasted about a month, then it went out. I bought a new light that never worked, very weak wiring and very complicated installation. A few days ago I was sleeping when I heard this weird high pitched noise waking me up. Then he started smelling smoke. It was an air purifier, it smelled of burning. Thank God I was home, or who knows, my whole house could have burned down. I must say that I have had many other less expensive air purifiers that have been in daily use for many years. This one took about 1 and cost 2 times more than the others. It worked well with UV light for the first month, but then it was just a regular air purifier. I will never buy one of these again. Back to the cheaper and much more efficient air purifiers I have at home. Unfortunately I recently bought a larger version of GermGuardian, I hope it doesn't burn through either. I guess I'll have to make sure it's off when I leave the house. I don't want my furry babies to die in a fire.

Pros
  • REDUCES MICROBES: UV light helps kill airborne viruses such as influenza, staph, rhinovirus and works with titanium dioxide to reduce volatile organic compounds. Optional UV lamp provides extra protection from germs and mold spores
Cons
  • Hard to tell
