Sharper Image Ionic Breeze GP SI730 Air Purifier

Pros: cleans the air pretty well, helps some allergies, silent, no filters
Cons: expensive, use carefully

When we were married my wife's two small dogs, one is a Pekingese and the other about the same size, came with her. Turned out that I am somewhat allergic to them. My eyes would burn and lungs would get congested. On December 30th we purchased the ...

Pros: Odor elimination, noiseless, takes 2 minutes to clean
Cons: A bit on the ugly side, but nobody makes a "cool" filter.

A little background to understand how much I appreciate this little honey of an air cleaner. I moved to Cleveland 4 years ago and found the best apartment anyone has heard of. 3,000 sq ft, 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and 3 extra closets with ...

Pros: Silent (most of the time), no filters, cheap to operate
Cons: Produces ozone as a byproduct, noisey in humid atmosphere, problems with power supply

I've owned several incarnations of the ionic breeze units produced by the Sharper Image. Their earlier versions of this product, while functional, were not made of sturdy enough stuff to survive constant daily use. This, their latest model, seems to ...

Pros: Effective at reducing allergens Silent operation No filters to maintain
Cons: High initial cost Bulky appearance

I've been using the Ionic Breeze GP for about 5 weeks now. The unit is in my bedroom and it collects a surprising amount of dust and allergens. I can happily report that my allergies are much better since installing the IB. And this during a spring with ...

Pros: Blissfully silent! Effective at scrubbing allergens from the air. Easy cleaning. No filters to buy.
Cons: So far none that I can think of.

I've had my Ionic Breeze GP for about a week now and it has made a tremendous difference in my allergies. My allergies are to pollens, especially ragweed, plus dust and animal dander. Though I have no pets and use a filtered window screen, I generally ...

Pros: Looks great, no filter, quiet and great warranty
Cons: Expensive, need to keep it on all the time, some hate the smell

I've owned various versions of ionic breeze. From the original, then upgraded to quadra, then to gp, and the other to gp professional. You've read many things about this thing and as my ex-fiance owned a cat and I had really bad allergies I can tell ...

Pros: Silent, no replacement filters, energy efficient, easy and cheap to maintain, and it works.
Cons: Way overpriced but can be bought for under $200. I still have to dust!

I bought 2 of these on-line refurbished 4 months ago for about $175 each including shipping. I was surprised to receive 2 units that were completely indistinguishable from new. This truly has been a "best buy" for me. I sure am glad I didn't settle and ...

Pros: Quiet. Space efficient. Kills germs and bacteria. Easy maintenance. Economical in the long run.
Cons: Must clean immediately if burning candles. Or turn it off while candles are lit.

I think it works great. No fans making noise or any kind of electrical buzzing. You can really see all the dirt and dust it collects in just a week. I also noticed that the dust that doesn't pass through the air cleaner simply drops straight down. ...

Pros: Quiet, unobtrusive, highly effective in killing germs. An absolute must for pet owners!
Cons: The initial cost was quite a setback ($900 for both units including warranty).

I would have never considered buying this purifier if it were not for my fiancee who had developed an allergy to our four rabbits. They have full run of the apartment and the central air is always full of rabbit hair and other irritants. We bought ...

Pros: Collects dirt from air, kills viruses and germs with UV light, relatively quiet usually
Cons: Initially Expensive for new units, Can be loud when too much dirt collected inside

Well, this year I spent quite a bit of money buying air purifiers to help relieve my allergies. I've tried Hunter HEPA unit but the expense of constantly buying new HEPA filters every 1 to 3 months became extremely expensive in a short period of time. ...

Pros: Quiet, does as advertised, low maintenance
Cons: High initial cost

Like you I had seen the commercials for the Ionic Breeze and thought "yeah, right". I work on a cruise ship and thus I have to take over the cabin from the departing person. When I first moved in I noticed a very strong smell of cigarettes and B.O. ...

Pros: Silent, works as advertised, good customer service
Cons: Durability problems, initially expensive

Introduction All Sharper Image Ionic Breeze products function in the same way: Air is drawn into the unit by electrostatic charge, dust particles are attracted to charged metal plates and stay inside the unit, and cleaner air comes out on the ...

Pros: Quiet operation, sleek design, color choices, no cost to operate.
Cons: expensive (at first), may (or may not) create unhealthy ozone

PLEASE NOTE: I have changed my mind about this product. Yes, it has worked well for me. I see the "gunk" collected on the collection grid and love the fact that it's not in my lungs. BUT, recently, I have read articles about the unhealthful ...

Pros: It absolutely works as advertised!
Cons: Can be noisy when it needs cleaning.

Just purchased my Ionic Breeze GP from their reconditioned online store which means I got the identical unit for half the price and STILL has the full 5-year warrantee. The unit looked brand new and although I'm a heavy smoker, it seemed to clear the air ...

Pros: Silent, Eliminates Odors, Nice Looking Design
Cons: Possibly Harmful to your Health, Ineffective wrt Dust, Expensive

I don't write many reviews, because I don't really have the time and I'm not usually passionate about a particular product. However, after trying this air purifier and being disappointed, I decided to do some investigating on the subject of air ...
