Immediate difference, better mornings
on August 13, 2014
Posted by: Eileen306
Little about me // Most of my life I did not have allergies and even while playing golf or going out to a park, it would be nothing more than a sneeze here or there. But in the last 2 years, I found myself waking up most mornings having to sneeze, blow my nose and feeling really stuffy. This started becoming the norm and there were even times when at night I would become so stuffed up that I wouldn't be able to sleep. My co-workers would often ask me if I was sick but I told them other than being stuffed up I felt fine and accepted this is how I would be. Another reason I wanted to give the FIT50 a try is because I generally have a weaker immune system, poor sleep and thought air quality could help with this.
Enter FIT50 // Just a week into using the FIT50 in my bedroom, I remember it suddenly hitting me that I had noticeably less sneezing, needing to blow my nose and overall was a lot less stuffed up in the mornings. I've been using the FIT50 for two weeks now (2-4 hours daily) and no longer have the feeling of being congested in the mornings and do not have frustrations sleeping due to stuffiness. With better air quality, I wake up free of the above mentioned symptoms and overall just knowing I have better quality makes me just feel better. The device sounds like a smooth running fan, I find it kind of soothing!
I always thought air purifiers were for people who had severe allergies, asthma, had pets or were just scared of germs. Having been relieved of my morning "routine" if you will, I realize that a little change can make a big difference in my quality of life. Thanks FIT50.

Excellent, efficient, and high quality air cleaner,
on September 2, 2014
Posted by: Mark
My wife and I purchased the Allen BreatheSmart HEPA Air Purifier in January of 2014 and the results were amazing. We noticed there was no dust on our TV stand or on the top of our appliances. We both suffer from allergies and within two weeks our allergies significantly decreased. We were able to breathe easier and with less red puffy eyes. We placed the air cleaner near the intake of our air conditioner and when I went to replace the filter 60 days later, it had very little dust on it. We liked the Breathesmart so much that we just purchased the Alen BreatheSmart FIT50 HEPA Air Purifier as well. The Air cleaners are both quit when on high and I did notice any change in my electric bill.

Very good air purifiers. Well

Very good air purifiers. Well constructed. I have noticed an improvement in my home air quality. Not as quiet on speed 1 as I thought it would be. The chemicals and cooking odors filter does help with cooking odors - however, don't expect immediate results. It at least takes an hour or more in my experience.

Nice looking unit
on July 14, 2014
Posted by: Suzie
This unit has a sleek, very modern look to it and looks great in any room I put it in. I liked the way you can tell how bad the "particles" are in the room and when they are good again. I have never had an air purifier before this one and was surprised to hear how quiet it actually was. It was light weight and actually really easy to move around from room to room. I would definently recommend this product and have enjoyed the one I have.

BreathSmart FIT50
on July 27, 2014
Posted by: Anonymous
Having purchased a high quality room air purifier in the past, I was confident that a HEPA based system from a respected manufacturer would positively impact on the indoor air quality in our home. A lifelong allergy sufferer, I am hypersensitive to keeping up with clean pillow cases and creating a low dust environment - but those efforts yield minimal benefits.
No matter what we try, every night we hear our eight-year-old daughter over the baby monitor struggling mightily with the allergy laden air of South Texas… snorting, snoring, tossing and turning.
After only a few nights with the BreathSmart Fit 50 we have seen a dramatic reduction in sleep time allergy symptoms from our daughter. The downstream affect of sleeping more soundly will SURELY have a positive impact on her days as well. I was nervous about introducing ambient light and noise into my daughter’s sleep environment. After testing in our bedroom, we realized that the Fit 50 purrs like a kitten and the lights turn off completely if you choose.
Lastly, the product is well engineered and intuitive. Top tier fit and finish. Kudos to the designers.

Breathesmart Fit50
on June 24, 2014
Posted by: AJ
Not too asthetically pleasing but that's probably not why one would get an air filter, and has a very strong output.
I used mainly the automatic setting. The owners manual says that the three colors are red, yellow, and blue. Mine are dark pink, light pink, and blue. That's a bit of a discrepancy. I also notice that it spends most of the time in the middle setting (moderate particles detected#. It takes a lot of time to actually stay in the blue setting #minimum particles detected). It fluctuates a lot between settings and sometimes it's hard to tell if it's sensor capabilities are always accurate, but I have no reason to believe that they're not working, it's just a new feature. It's hard to imagine that indoor air quality could be that bad.
It's simple to use and easy to understand. I have 3 Alen filters now and have never had any problems with them.

Great Product
on July 23, 2014

When I first received the Breathesmart Fit50 I was doubtful that it would do anything.
After a couple weeks of using it, I've noticed an incredible difference in the air quality of my home and so has my wife. I have severe allergies and asthma and thus am sensitive to dust, pollen, and all things in the air. Within the first week or so, I've noticed that I'm not sneezing as much or waking up with congestion, which has been every morning for the past 20 years.
To my wife's excitement, my snoring has decreased, due to better breathing, and she says I'm less cranky because I can breathe better. She keeps on taking it into the kitchen when she cooks because she says it helps with odors too. Yesterday, she was excited that she didn't have to dust this week because all the dust seems to be gone. Whatever makes her happy must be good.
My daughter now wants one in her room because she says her allergies are lessened when she's in the living room (where we placed the air purifier during the day).
Another good thing about this air purifier is the air flow. It brings cool air into the room and is much quieter than my fan.
We will most likely invest in several of these in the near future for each room.

Love it!
on July 6, 2014
Posted by: JL
I have four dogs and this works wonderfully in purifying the air and eliminating pet odor. I love it that it isnt bulky. It's a classy white color, slim and compact. It was super easy to put together and very user friendly. It's loud on the higher settings, but the noise doesnt bother me since i leave it in the living room and only use it in the day time.
I got it primarily for pet odor, but i noticed that when we had our cook-out inside the house over the 4th of july weekend (it was too hot outside), it actually helped with all the cooking odors as well. Well worth the money. i am a super happy user! Highly recommend!
