Pros: Highly effective on both dust/pollen etc and odors!
Cons: Too noisy on the high mode for use while in the same room.
Summary: “Every breath you take, every move you make…” With apologies to Sting I thought that his old hit would be a great way to introduce the Oreck Super 8 Professional Air Purifier. There is a virtually endless array of different air ... read more

Pros: Good customer service
Cons: Hard to clean, doesnt meet up to claims, very loud.
Summary: OK so I see on TV. It will reduce allergens and cigarette smoke which I emmeditally thought. Hey I could get that for my aunt. She smokes and this will clean the air in her home. So I tell her about it and she buys it from oreck and when we got it we saw ... read more

Pros: Looks nice, low speed fan is quiet.
Cons: Ineffective dust collection, most passes thru unit, high fan speed is loud.
Summary: In summary: a big let down. I have a lot of dust in the house (dog) that I expected to at least significantly reduce. No such luck, filtration is ineffective. The only way I can get it to collect any dust at all is to spray the pre-filter (plastic ... read more

Pros: Your air will feel cleaner and fresher. " Silent " mode really is silent.
Cons: High speed is a bit noisy, but medium and silent are fine.
Summary: I am a born skeptic, but thought buying this was worth a try as my daughter and husband suffer from allergies. Bought two from the website - (hey, the electric broom that was a " free " gift really is handy!) After the first night of having one run ... read more

Pros: I feel like it must be doing something to the air, it is so loud.
Cons: It is loud. So loud. It is also impossible to clean.
Summary: I am sitting in my living room with my Oreck XL Air7 table top, with the technology that supposedly keeps air in submarines clean. I have it on 3 power, which is full power, and I can barely hear myself think. This machine has a high pitched windy ... read more

Pros: Small, light, requires no replaceable elements.
Cons: Expensive, and difficult to gauge the effectiveness of.
Summary: I bought the Oreck after comparing prices and reading reviews of a number of unit. I was attracted to the price, and the fact that I wouldn't have to keep buying filters. Performance: When I first bought the unit, the air in the house did seem a lot ... read more

Pros: Cleans the air, no expensive filters to purchase, and runs silently at the lowest setting.
Cons: Expensive
Summary: Before I purchased my Oreck purifier, like most of you, I had seen it numerous times on television. Did it really do as Mr. Oreck claimed? I broke down and purchased one and was satisfied with Oreck's 90 day risk free trial. They will even refund the ... read more

Pros: Great for odor control
Cons: too expensive for it doing only odor control
Summary: I purchased 3 of these air cleaners for my home over a month ago, in hopes of helping me with dust and allergens. This product claims to do all of this and more, such as household pollutants and odors. After a month of use, I was amazed at how fresh my ... read more

Pros: It works! Plus it deoderizes and is easy to clean. Scent is great.
Cons: Med/High setting is not silent, but not really that noisey.
Summary: This if for the Oreck XL Professional Air Purifier (Model Air8B-II). I'm one of those prone to positive ions - I know because I work in a lab with a lot of electrical equipment and my sinuses start acting up and I get sleepy (tea and coffee helps a ... read more

Pros: Handsome unit. Oreck has treated us well with other products we've purchased.
Cons: See above review.
Summary: I've used two of the units for the past two months. Other purifiers I've tried have been FAR to noisy to use in my home theater and bedrooms, so I thought I'd try the Super 8 after hearing the info-mercial adds claiming the virtues of the "silent ... read more

Pros: Really moves the air, -ions.
Cons: noisy, pretty positive it is producing ozone.
Summary: Ya so I've been watching those commercials about Oreck's air purifier. It seems pretty cool. It has the ionic breeze technology to clean the air with metal plates, and what really caught my eye was it produces negative ions. I had been doing lots of ... read more

Pros: Highest cleaning rating, silent operations, portable, low-cost filters, best warranty.
Cons: No built-in timer.
Summary: This review is based on a couple months of continuous use of this product. I will try to compare several aspects of this unit to other air cleaners that I have used in the past. I have also reviewed the Oreck AIR4000 and found great success with the ... read more

Pros: Can't think of any
Cons: Do not attract the particles as well as advertised. poor performance.
Summary: I am extremely disappointed in the performance of the two units that I purchased for near $500. The bedroom TV screen attracts more dust and airborne particles than these units do. I have had them for nearly a year and have periodically check the

Pros: The air does smell better for the first 48 hours you own the machine.
Cons: Does not clean the air at all, expensive, breaks after warranty expires.
Summary: I purchased two of these units and am very unhappy. These units do not work as advertised. I tried them for over 3 years and their "collection cell" does not filter the air at all. The luvers directing "clean" air out of the unit are always filty.

Pros: none
Cons: as discribed in the review
Summary: While I must admit it does catch some dirt, the amount was was not anything significant. The machine will also start sparking as soon as it catches anything. Worst part is that in a short period of time both my purifiers have failing motors that are

Pros: Does clean the air. But so does a good 3M furnance filter.
Cons: Ozone generating that can cause lung cancer. Poorly made. Loud in "silent" mode. Expensive.
Summary: I liked the idea when I purchased 3 of these for our home. But now it's only been a 1.5 years of owning them and two of them are already either making loud rattling noises or won't power up on the silent setting. Additionally, the EPA is now stating that

Pros: Virtually silent, easy to clean with Oreck spray, continuous operation and low energy consumption.
Cons: A bit pricey...but less expensive on eBay.
Summary: With several cats and a history of sick house (mold and bacteria), we were searching for a unit to clean our air. We first tried the Ionic Breeze, but found it ineffective. Then we tried the risk-free offer of Oreck. What a huge difference!!! Not only

Pros: Unit is compact
Cons: Expensive
Noisy
Ineffective
Not that easy to clean
Summary: I bought and used an Oreck XL AIR8 for a year. I had this thing sitting right on my computer desk. The computer got just as dusty as usual, which I thought odd, since the Oreck has a pre-filter and a carbon filter. This means that dust goes right thru
