Summary: Amazing!
Comment: This works great for getting rid of odors!! I put it in my kitchen and it totally got rid of the odors from my trash can and it really does a good job of getting rid of cooking smells. Also took out the smell from the litter box near by. I'm going to get another one for the other end of my house, since it doesn't cover a huge area.....

Summary: Where has this product been all my life?
Comment: Ok, I have owned this little guy for a little over a week now and cant comment on its longevity, but... it certainly seems to work well. I am a pack a day smoker and like clockwork I catch any cold my significant other gets within a day or two. She came down with something last week when I bought this plug in unit and she is now finally starting to get over her cold or whatever. I have yet to get sick! I am sure there could be other reasons for this but let me assure you that a robust immune system is not one of them! :)
Some people complain about these units.. saying there is low airflow through them. I'll let you in on a little secret.. it takes some time in contact with light to kill germs in the air. If the air moved too fast the germs would not have enough contact time with the light to die. Put the unit in an area where the air moves around it. Perhaps near a door or in a room with a ceiling fan that normally runs. If you put it in the corner of a room with dead air.. its going to purify the heck out of that corner.. :)
I placed the unit on a kill-a-watt meter tonight and it registered a constant draw of 9 watts. Thats pretty great as far as air purifiers are concerned. I have electronics that draw more than that when they are off. Costco has them 2 for $67 and Lowes has them for $39 ea (then you find one of the MANY coupons for Lowes like $10 off a $25 purchase.. exc).
The technology behind the units is a little questionable and I was not able to find links to the documented evidence of their effectiveness. They claim Harvard did test this product.. hope thats true but I would like to see the source of that claim posted somewhere. UV-C bulbs have been around for a long time, but for some reason they are just now showing up in this kind of a product with no real description as to why that is.
The bulbs only last one year and I cant find replacements locally (yet) so minus one star for that.. otherwise.. good job. Hope its for real. I went back to Lowes today to get another one and they were sold out.

Summary: Best air purifier
Comment: This is one of the best air sanitizers i have ever had. No filters to replace since its just a bulb. I sleep much better during the night, and the air is much cleaner. And to those non-believers about air purifiers and sanitizers, it works. Take my word for it. So far no nasal problems and i feel fresh when i wake up.

Summary: UV Air Sanitizer
Comment: I was curious if this air sanitizer would really work and I have to say I'm very happy with it. I have it plugged in about four feet away from two litter boxes and it really does the job! You can't smell the litter boxes until you get right up to them. This is a great product and I recommend it highly.

Editorial Reviews:

Germ Guardian UV-C PLUG-IN Air Sanitizer effectively utilizes Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) technology to kill airborne germs in the home or office. A whisper-quiet but powerful fan pulls viruses into the germ-killing chamber where the germ-laden air is bombarded with ultraviolet-C light and 99.9% of viruses, bacteria and mold spores are destroyed. Then the sanitizer circulates clean air back into the room. This unit is great for stopping the spread of airborne germs and kills odors. Great for small spaces such as bathrooms and bedrooms.
