Honeywell FC37A1064 Replacement Electronic Cell

This is an exact replacement, as you would expect. What I didn't expect was how bad my old filters were. Now that I see the nice shiny new one I realize the olds ones must oxidize or get some kind of deposits on them even with regular cleaning. My air cleaner takes two of these and it didn't seem right to put the new shiny one in there with the other old one so I ordered a second one. Oh and luckily they package these pretty good as the box was partially crushed but the filter inside was ok.

AirTech 2000 Plug & Clean UV-c Air Purifier

I would give this product 5 stars if the filters were availble. I have had this air purifier in my office for nearly two years now and have been searching for replacement filters. If anyone knows where to purchase them, please provide info. I have written to the company and received no response. I believe it works well and would like to continue using it but I have basically had to remove and wash the two filters that came with the product. The only other option I have is to unplug it and throw it out. I truly hope there are filters out there and that the company did not plan on everyone throwing these into the land fill after 1 year!! The UV light also needs to be replaced.

NewAir AC-10100H Ultra Compact 10,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

Upon receiving this product it was found to be mechanically defective and had to be returned. The company "NewAir" does not respond to warranty requests, you have to go through the seller "Air & Water". Upon receiving my replacement and inspecting the new unit, I found they weren't the same unit. The replacement was the correct unit, but the original unit was not only defective, but the wrong model.

I used this unit for approx. 7 weeks and was so dissappointed in its performance that I have since boxed it up and stuck it in a closet and truely regret my purchase. It is a 10,000 BTU A/C rated for 325 sq. ft. I purchased it to cool a 240 sq. ft. room that reaches temperatures as high as 97 degrees when it is 105-109 outside (southeast TX). My goal was to use this unit to cool the room to 85 degrees. The air temperature produced by this unit is barely cold and was incapable of cooling the room to even 90 degrees. After approx. 70 mins of operation the unit's compressor turns off because it begins to overheat. It remains off for 20-30 mins and in that time the room heats again. Overall, the unit was only capable of cooling the room by 2-5 degrees lower than it would get without air conditioning, depending on how sunny it is.

If I could go back in time and stop myself from buying this product, I would.

Lysol Neutra Air Sanitizing Spray 10 fl oz

I wanted to try this to see if it would do more than try to cover up an odor. I was Very happy it works!!!!! It does more than leave you with the nasty odor & a funky smell from a spray that just mingles & hangs there with the odor you are trying to get rid of. It works very well in the restroom as well. Love IT! Need to some for every room.

Steelex D3615 Replacement Filter

Used this filter on couple of sheetrock/tile demo jobs and there was no dust on customers furniture in adjacent rooms. Happy clients make me happy :-). Would highly recommend. Vacuumed filter and good as new!

Water Filter Purifier Faucet European Style Brushed Nickel

After shopping around for water taps, this was by far the most affordable one that had the styling we were after. After using it for a few months, I'm quite pleased with it. Be aware, however, that it is not made of solid metal while the exterior is metal, the "guts" are made of plastic and the spigot neck feels a little flimsy.

That being said, I'm pleased and would buy this again.

Update 10/2012:

The tap seems to be holding up well after about a year of daily use. Valve mechanism continues to operate smoothly without leaks.

20x25x5-Nordic MERV 12 Replacement A/C Furnace Air Filters

Until now, all of the replacement filters I've purchased online have been individually wrapped in plastic. This was nice in that it kept contaminants away. The filters shipped my this manufacturer are NOT individually wrapped so, if you want to store them for any length of time, you'll need to place them in a large, plastic garbage bag or keep them in the original shipping box. I know times are tough and we all want to save a few dollars, but quality doesn't end at the factory floor. It continues to the customer's house.

NuTone S97017646 Fan B-Unit Motor

Avoid this low quality product. It is difficult to install with parts that BARELY fit and "pop" out of place. This all before you turn on the fan. Once you do and the motor does run so it earns one star prepare for a fan no more quiet than a 57 Chevy or a jet engine on take off. Every loose fitting part rattles and the whole assembly seems to rely on the decorative grille to hold it in place. Cant begin to say how disappointed.

Smoke Buddy - Personal Air Filter/ Purifier Brand New

So I bought this thing for 22 bucks not thinking it was going to do much. But it actually worked out great. My gf and I live in an apartment and we tend to get nervous when we toke up, especially wen it's just the two of us. This smokebuddy filters all the smoke great. I even tested it, once person smoked, the other tried to smell the smoke as the other were blowing into the buddy, does this make sense haha. My only problem was I used it probably every other day for the last month and the filter is clogged up already. Must be 300+ uses, but I wish it could do a little more for the price. Maybe they should do a brita filter thing, buy the cartridge then the filters can be bought separate, then recharged to 100% when replaced. Idk, sounds genius to me. Good product though none-the-less.

GE Air Purifier HEPA Filter Kit

This filter fits General Electric AFHC21AM air purifier.

The filter from Abt through Amazon is shipped with a sealed blue cardboard retail box labeled "GE" and "true HEPA". The filter is also labeled. Your nose can feel the difference in air quality within 15 minutes of using this filter.

A "true HEPA" filter must remove at least 99.97% of particles 0.3 micron (millionth of a meter) or bigger. This includes almost all bacteria. If you receive a generic version of the filter, make sure the box says "true HEPA", and not "HEPA-like", "HEPA type" or "like HEPA". It is much much cheaper to replace filters than your lungs. Many people die while waiting for lung transplant. The

inferior filters allow much of bacteria to pass through. They are not worth the saving.

Eureka 161D6 Stick Broom Vacuum

This is a great little vacuum, especially for the price (substantially cheaper than many of the other stick brooms). It's the same basic technology as Dustbuster-type cordless hand vacs, and is actually shaped like one but with a wide floor nozzle and a long handle. However, being corded, it's quite a bit more powerful than the cordless vacs, and has proven quite up to the tasks we use it for (most often, vacuuming the crud off the floor around the baby's high chair). Don't expect this to replace your main house vacuum, but it's a great spot vac to keep handy in those rooms that need a *lot* of vacuuming; we'll probably buy one or two more to stash around the house.

WEB WCHARG Filter Charger

This filter charger spray makes your HVAC air return filters trap a vast range of air carried particles. Use a MERV 8 filter and spray it lightly on both sides. Your air ducts and your HVAC system will remain clean and mold/dust free. And so will all the air in your home. Just remember to change the air return filters every three months. Your air vectored allergies will be seriously reduced.

RSVP 4.5 Quart Square Bamboo Compost Pail

The fist time I tried to pickup the plastic insert/bucket the handle pulled off and now continuously does so. The bamboo is coming apart at the seems. Not what I would expect for $50. This compost pail would not be a bad deal if it were $20, but for almost $50 the quality just isn't there. I'm thinking about retuning it.

Hoover Windtunnel Max Multi-Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum

The UH70600 upright vacuum creates some serious force that almost carries it to a 5-star rating.

I'll start by simply stating that I really like this vacuum. Everything about the unit is well laid-out, with useful attachments and perks everywhere. I only had one issue with the unit, but I'll get to that later. First, the vacuum does its job well. I've had a series of sub-hundred dollar vacuums, both bag and bagless for my whole life. I used my usual vacuum for a thorough cleaning of my house 2 days before I received the Hoover UH70600. Once I received the Hoover, I fired it up and vacuumed the whole house again. I don't have any pets or extraneous sources of dust, but after using my usual vacuum just 48 hours ago the Hoover sucked up an amazing 66% full canister of dirt and dust. I was shocked that the UH70600 picked up so much more dirt than my old vacuum did (and kinda grossed out at my old vacuum's weak performance). So if you're using a sub-hundred dollar vacuum I can fully say with confidence that this Hoover will definitely do a noticeably better job cleaning your house. Now, I've never used a Dyson, or an extra expensive vacuum before, but for the price here on Amazon, you're getting good cleaning value with the UH70600.

As far as attachments go, they're great. The upholstery attachment effectively cleaned my couch, and the dusting brush is outstanding for sucking up the dirt on stairs. All of the attachments have a permanent resting spot on the unit itself. A minor complaint is that the extension wand rests on the left side of the vacuum and the crevice tool has to loosely fit inside the extension wand. It remains in the extension wand during normal vacuuming, but when the extension wand is in use, you're forced to leave the crevice tool on the floor. The hose that emanates from the vacuum for attachment use is made of a heavy duty, slinky, rubber-like material. It has some heft to it and seems impressively durable. It's not cheap plastic. The power cord is slightly longer than the cords on my previous vacuums, and I welcomed the extra mobility that it affords. I do love the auto-retract feature of the power cord. It retracts quickly, but not so fast that you feel like you have to dodge a sharp whip coming back towards you.

I have noticed that people have complained about the belt drive on this unit. I cannot confirm nor deny that problem as I only have bare floors and relatively low carpet. I left my vacuum on the second lowest setting and didn't have any problems, nor did I smell any burning rubber. If you do have higher carpet, though, there is a handy footswitch that you can hit on the bottom of the vacuum that stops the brush drive and allows you to only use suction to clean your carpet. As I stated before, this Hoover does generate great suction, but I'm not sure if that alone will be enough to clean a thick, high carpet.

So where does the UH70600 lose a star? Unfortunately, it's when you finish vacuuming and have to empty the trash. Detaching the dirt canister is easy enough, but opening the dirt chamber over the garbage is a royal pain. There is a release lever located towards the bottom of the canister, but when pressed, the door fails to open. My canister was over 66% full, but there wasn't enough weight in there to open the door. I doubt a full canister will open from just gravity either. Further complicating the matter is that there isn't a convenient place to grab onto the bottom door and rip it open. As a result you're stuck doing this dance of holding onto the canister with your legs, using a hand to hold the release lever, and using your other hand to try and pry the door open. Once you finally rip it open with excessive force, it causes some dust to fly upwards and creates a bit of a mess. I've learned to manage it since my first adventure opening it, but still, I have to dock it a star just because of this. I tried to open the door on a unit in the store, and had the same problem. Some other more expensive models have a neat button that you push down and it forces the door to open downwards...it's far more effective.

Overall, though, the Hoover UH70600 is a great value for cleaning your house. Once you graduate beyond a 1-bedroom apartment, and if you don't want to drop several hundred on a vacuum, I would recommend this unit. Just be prepared to dance with the dirt door quite a bit.

UPDATE

I've been using the vacuum for several months now. After wearing it out, I'd say the door opens 75% of the time on it's own now. I guess it just takes time to break it in, so long term, it's not as big of an issue as I originally thought. The new development, however, is that a LOT of dust/dirt gets trapped in the bottom brush area. There is a transparent acrylic plastic covering, so you can see the dust. In the instructions it shows you how to take apart the brush head and clean it out. It's not the worst thing in the world, but it fills up with a lot of dust quick and seems to affect your vacuum's efficiency until you clean it.

2nd UPDATE

I've been using the vacuum for well over a year now and have received several comments on my review, so I thought I would summarize my reply comments here. The waste door now opens every time for me, so while it likely will be a problem initially, I can say with confidence that it shouldn't be a long term issue if you do indeed purchase this vacuum. The filter seems to build up a lot of dust quickly, but hey, I guess that's what it's supposed to do, right? It's not too bad to rinse out the spongy, disk-shaped filter, but it does take 2-3 days to completely dry. If you vacuum again after only 1 day of drying you'll wind up with a moist, caked-on layer of dirt/dust on the filter. I really do hate how much dust and hair get caught in the brush head area, though. You can clean it out, but you have to loosen two red sliders underneath the main brush head and then pry open the two main plastic components to get at the globs of dust. It's gross and I find myself doing it after 3-4 serious vacuuming sessions. I have recently tried out another ~$150-179 vacuum, and after using this Hoover, it is really tough to go back to a vacuum that doesn't have a retractable cord now. The retractable cord can get a little stuck sometimes, but if you yank it and loosen it a bit, you can get it to retract smoothly again. But, man...that annoying dust accumulation in the brush head area still knocks this otherwise 5-star vacuum down to 4-stars.

Holmes HM1230 Cool Mist Humidifier

I spent a lot of time in the store looking over humidifiers, and finally decided on the Holmes. I like the design and features. The good point is it works very well at humidifying a small room. The bad is that it is VERY noisy. There's no way you could have it on high it sounds like a jet engine. On low it is still quite loud. I have it in my son's room, and the white noise actually helps him sleep, but I would never be able to have it in my own room. If the noise isn't an issue, then this is a great humidifier, but I believe most people would prefer a quieter unit.

24x24x5 (23.75x23.75x4.38) MERV 10 Honeywell Grill Filter

I have ordered this item twice through amazon, since we have to place our AC filter every couple years. This size was very difficult to find, and I am so glad amazon has it!

Sebo Canister Vacuums

I hate to vacuum and for years used lower-priced models, which I found noisy and awkward to use. Then I tested the Sebo K2 and was instantly hooked. Its powerful suction gets the job done quickly and it's highly efficient, but what I love most about it is its ease of operation and quietness. It's so quiet my cat doesn't even wake up. The best way I can describe it is think of a Rolls Royce compared to a Lada. Who knows? I might even start to like vacuuming........The only reason I haven't given this dream machine 5 stars is because after all, it is pricey and you should get what you pay for and I think the power cord's a bit too short

Frigidaire FRA082AT7 8,000 BTU Window-Mounted Compact Room Air Conditioner

Just recieved the unit today. Installing the top bar on it was odd, and more difficult than it needed to be, the screws didn't seem to grip to the main unit. Otherwise installation was easy. When you look through the louvers you can see light through the back of the unit, which doesn't seem right to me. And you can see the styrofoam that lines the unit quite well both through the louvers and through the back. So thats where they saved some $$. With the styrofoam exposed like that I don't think I'd leave the unit in the window to brave a New York winter. It also doesn't appear to be airtight. It does get the room cool. The fan speeds are high, higher and blastoff. Not really a 'low' option, and its not quiet but I like white noise when I sleep anyway.

My next unit will have to have a remote though, and a digital temperature guage which this does not have. But that's for a richer time and a better economy. Until then, this one will work fine.

Orange Tko 16 fl oz Liquid

I bought this stuff 7 years ago at a convention center after being pitched the product....had my doubts, but remembered that I had some ink print transfer on my leather seats in the back seat of my car from a box sitting on the light leather in the heat. I had tried everything to get it off and nothing worked. I asked the guy if he could give me a sample and that if it cleaned it off, I would buy it. So hesitantly I took the little sample and a toothbrush to my backseat and low and behold...it took every last bit of it up, so I bought it! It ended up sittin in the cleaning product cabinet for like 5 years after that as I had moved and forgot all about it and all the uses. Anyway, years later I had bought a dress off of Ebay for my daughter, which came with a big wet/grease type of spot on the back and when I contacted the seller about it, she apologized and said that she had a drycleaning company and had she seen it she would have treated it. She said that she would take it back, but asked if I had any orange cleaner and I remembered the Orange TKO I had bought. She said if I applied it, it would look worse at first, but after one more washing it would take it out. I tried it and it magically took the whole spot out! Since then it is my main laundry staple! I love this stuff and swear by it for anything that a bleach pen cannot be used on and then some! It has taken dark bleeding from other clothing on light clothing,by applying it directly to the area and then soaking it in some warm water with some detergent overnight! It has taken out printer ink my husband got on his dress slacks, the same way. ANything that I have had lost hope with it has cleaned up. LOVE THIS STUFF and have reccommended it to anyone and everyone and no I don't work for or know who owns it! It is my main spot treatment and has worked on everything where other products only lightened them.....and I have tried them all after 3 kids! I haven't really used it for other things to this point because I am saving it for all my many clothing messes from my children....AND my spill happy husband! :D THis bottle is a clothing miracle spot remover and I SWEAR BY IT! YOU WILL LOVE IT FOR GREASE SPOTS, INK SPOTS, GRASS, BLOOD, FOOD STAINS, BABY SPILLS, CLOTHING BLEEDING, and anything else you can think of! BTW-it has never ruined anything or any type of fabric I have put it on either. If you have lost hope in something that you *THINK* is ruined, try this Orange TKO....I bet it will work!

Eureka Filter Air Canister Vacuum

Had been looking for a canister vacuum for sometime and settled on the Eureka Filter Air Canister. Have been surprised at how it performs in carpet and with all the different attachments on tile and in the car. Quiet, flexible, it reduces cleaning time significantly (especially for under the beds). The only minor complaint is that the carry handle is a little on the small side which is a problem for using on stairs.

Eye-Vac EVPRO Professional Touchless Stationary Vacuum

Because I have mostly hard floors, I purchased two of these for my home. So far they are living up to their claims. I have no small children or cats, so I leave mine set on automatic mode, which makes them even more convenient to use. The motor is very powerful and leaves no debris to be picked up. The only thing I don't like is that the dog hair and dirt all clings to the filter instead of falling down to the bottom of the dirt reservoir. Much of it gets stuck between the vanes of the filter, so I can't just dump out the dirt. I have to remove the filter, hold it over the trash can, and brush all the junk off it the best I can. This is unacceptable for a couple of reasons. First, it's a pain in the neck. More important, because these HEPA filters do not get replaced, it is a real problem that they get so dirty and clogged so fast. To alleviate this problem I wrapped a used dryer sheet around the filter and secured it with rubber bands. Now when it gets covered with stuff, I can peel it off and replace it without having to clean and wash the filter every time.

Update: I have turned off the automatic feature on one of these because my husband said he heard it come on two times during the night! Only explanation I can think of is that a spider set it off. :)

Update No. 2: The dryer sheet thing isn't all that easy either, so I purchased two spare filters. Now I brush the dirt out of the filter and wash it when it's time. I put it aside to dry and put one of the spares in the EyeVac. Seems to be working OK.

HAPF-30 Holmes HEPA Aftermarket Replacement Filter

I have two Holmes HAP240 air cleaners, and these after-market versions fit as well as the originals did, and for less money! They're probably greener too, because they're cardboard, not plastic.

Reading through customer reviews, I found a great tip. You can make your filters last at least twice as long by wrapping the filter with a Swiffer dry cloth (for the Swiffer Sweeper). Put the Swiffer cloth on the intake side of the filter and fold the edges around the filter. This gives you a cheap pre-filter that makes the filter last a lot longer, and fit more tightly so that dust doesn't get dragged in the edges. Then every couple of weeks, change the cloth!

NewAir AF321 Portable Evaporative Swamp Air Cooler

Room cools a 15 x 20 ft. room plus attached bathroom nicely. I am in a fairly dry desert climate and it is cheaper and more effective than A/C.

Need to refill every day or two with a couple gallons of H2O and it also has an ICE TRAY you can add ice cubes to that helps cool a little more.

Will buy another if the need arises.
