SPT AC-7013 Magic Clean Air Cleaner with Photo-Catalytic Oxidation Device and Ionizer



Sent Mine Back
I wanted a PCO air purifier to have in my office, but this was too rinkydink for my tastes. I has four light-emitting diodes, one in each corner. I've seen small PCO filters that were made for use in a car that used LEDS, but for the space this fan takes up, I think it is way under lit. It seemed to add more odor to the room from its own off-gassing than it cleared up. I ran it for about two hours. It was very quiet on low speed at first, but then it started making a scraping/bearing noise. I sent it back and will try the NanoBreeze next. I don't have anything against Sunpentown. I have a humidifier and a portable air conditioner from them that I am very happy with. The PCO fan was unacceptable.

Expensive fan
I like the design of this product. It is able to swivel from side to side and tilt up and down. It also runs pretty quiet even on high. It comes with an extra long cord. That is about as much positive as I can say about it. I was hoping to clear out some of the musty mildew smell I was greeted with upon moving to my new place. It has made no noticeable difference in the air quality of my apartment. I purchased one for a friend with my order, and he didn't pick his up for a few weeks. So I was running two of these units side by side for a while and still noticed no improvement in air quality. He placed his in a room with a litter box and it seemed to spread the odor around instead of eliminating it. The LED's used to light the grid are very dim. It seems to me that the photo oxidation and ion production is very minimal.
