Ionic Breeze produces high levels of ozone. Ozone is great for blocking UV in the stratosphere but terrible for your lungs. In a small room you can actually smell it. I was surprised it was allowed on the market.

I wouldn't buy this becuase of the name "ionic" breeze. Very few atoms exist as ionic gases in the fre environment, and none of them are necessary for living, all the molecules tend to breath in are non-ionic, and I don't even know if any ions are stable in gaseous form at room temperature. The name just shouts SCAM PRODUCT to me.

This is a good point. My experience is that any product I have ever bought from the Sharper Image has been an overpriced piece of crap.

Dcifr,

As usual, you don't disappoint. It is great that you are getting into high finance. We need more really gullible people involved in corporate America financial transactions!

So, what you're saying is that I should get an ionic breeze, but balance it out through heavy use of aerosol air fresheners? Should make for damn fresh room.

I've used a hepa filter on and off and it always works wonder for me and is alot cheaper. It just uses filters to clean the air instead of all that ionic crap.

i think ozone might have been the really clean "smell" i was smelling as opposed to the cigarettes etc...

i just looked up the order i made last night while intoxicated and there was the product w/ "ozone guard" ... this in and of itself was suspicious. i have just cancelled the order and will likely buy the hepa filter 99.97% of something or other instead.

but before i go on making stupid purchases, matt, as i trust your opinion, what should i get to filter my air?

Better question for Dr. Matt?

Do we really need something to filter our air?

If you'll read that Straight Dope link on the first page, it seems like a good starting point for learning just how much good HEPA filters do as well.
