Customer Review: Quiet effective air cleaner, tips for use of sensors!
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't have much to add to all the other reviews, this air cleaner is the best of all those I have tried. It moves more air than the other brands I tried, while making a lot less noise. I leave it on the 2nd fan setting at night and I find the low noise a pleasant white noise. On night/silent mode I can barely hear it at all, and it is right beside the bed on my side.
I purchased this the same day I got a new mattress. I have allergies and asthma, mostly to pollen and outdoor allergens - however this has been an unbearable year for me with the worst pollen season ever. I have been meaning to buy a HEPA filter but could not bring myself to spend the money, but finally when we bought the new mattress I knew that the "new mattress smell" from off gassing chemicals would not only aggravate my allergies, but also be bad for our health.
So I bought the smallest model, since the main difference is the power of the fan, and I intend to set it on high when not in the room and a lower setting manually when I am sleeping. I read the manual and found out that when it is first plugged in, the unit sets its sensors to a "baseline" in your home. All readings in the future are relative to this baseline. Since we had just unpacked a brand new, smelly mattress beside it, the filter was setting its sensors to a very high baseline. Therefore I manually set the fan to max and left it running all day.
When we returned home the smell from the new mattress was much diminished. Obviously the air filter can only remove the VOCs as they enter the air, and over the next week or so the mattress continued to off-gas but the air filter kept the smell from accumulating in the room.
During that entire time, the chemical and dust sensors stayed at the bottom or rarely went up to "1". that did not surprise me since the baseline was set when the machine was set up in a very "dirty" air room.
After a week of running the filter on high when we were out and on the second setting at night, I unplugged the machine for 15 seconds and plugged it back in as advised in the manual to re-set the sensors to the new cleaner baseline. Now, the sensors are very sensitive, when I make the bed, the dust sensor kicks up and often the chemical sensor too, since the mattress is still only a month old there are whiffs of new mattress smells. When I sprayed some shower cleaner (a nontoxic cleaner but contains a scent) in the bathroom - in the next room, the chemical sensor picked up to max. When I cleaned the cat litter box, the dust sensor picked up even though the litter I use is the most expensive dust free kind.
It seems like a lot of the bad reviews are complaining that the machine does not sense their dirty air. If people would read the manual they would find out about this baseline setting and know that all they need to do is set the filter manually to max for a few days to clean the air, then unplug the machine for 15 seconds and plug it back in, the sensors will reset to the new cleaner air and from then on be more sensitive if you want to use the automatic settings.
The only CON I can find about this machine is that described by others - the display is way too bright and can't be turned off at night. Since most of us will use this in the bedroom for allergies, it is a huge oversight that they do not allow the display to be turned off. I hope that future models will implement this option. For now, I have to tape cardboard over the display.

Description of Rabbit Air BioGS (model 421A - covers 600 sq. ft.) High Quality Ultra-Quiet Air Purifier - Low Maintenance - Washable Filters!
The Rabbit Air BioGS removes a wide variety of allergens and contaminants from the air, including dust, pollens, dander, odors, mold, and chemical vapors. Its HEPA filter traps and destroys a host of common allergens, such as pet dander, dust mites, and pollen. Each filter can last up to three years, based on 12 hours of daily operation, and won't create secondary pollution like conventional HEPA air cleaners. Our Signature HEPA filter traps airborne allergens and contaminants down to 0.3 microns in size 99.97 percent of the time and also includes a medium filter to boost efficiency and increase HEPA filter lifespan. The BioGS features a permanent pre-filter to help eliminate large airborne particles as well as a washable Charcoal Based Activated Carbon Filter for odor and chemical absorption. With its energy efficient design, the BioGS is safe and inexpensive to operate, emitting no ozone and only consuming 33 watts at turbo speed and seven watts at silent speed. The BioGS also features an inverter control and auto air quality monitoring, which means the unit can operate at five different speeds and it won't run at a higher speed than necessary. Ideal for home or small office use, this air purifier covers up to 600 square feet, based on two air changes per hour. It's also completely silent at low speed, and creates a minimum amount of distracting noises.HEPA Air Purifiers
