It was an excellent choice.

It was an excellent choice. The highest fan setting is not too loud and becomes white backgound noise soon after running the unit. The other fan seetings are very quiet. It a a large unit but then again it cleans a large area. I would purchase it again and reccommend to others

Recently moved into an apartment

Recently moved into an apartment and could smell cigarette odor from other apartments at certain times. Tried one other brand of air purifier and had to send it back for a refund. We tried the Alen BreathSmart Hepa Air Purifier at double the price. It works, and we don’t smell the cigarettes anymore. It was well worth the price, and can’t dream of living here without it.

Allergy Relief at last!
on February 8, 2016
Posted by: KDkids
Our home is over 100 yrs. old. I’m guessing that our duct work is at least 60-70 yrs old. We have lived here 35 yrs. and I know that the duct work has never been cleaned out any more than what I can reach with a vacuum hose. Although they are cleaned a few times a year our carpeting and drapes are over 25 yr. old. We have always had at least one resident cat and one dog and many children, our own, grand kids and I run a home daycare. Although I keep the house reasonably clean these are all cause for dust allergens a flow.
We decided to purchase an air purifier because I have allergies that I have learned to ignore but one of our married daughters has developed terrible allergies the past few years. Her house is carpet, pet and air scent freshener free. No more real Christmas tree for her. .Problem was that every time that she came to visit our home she was miserable the entire stay with congestion, watery eyes and runny nose.
I did a great deal of research on air purifiers. Some I found to be much cheaper, some more expensive, some not so great reviews and others sounded somewhat comparable in reviews but the one that always stood out as the best quality and value in all reviews was the Alen Breathe Smart Fit50 Air Purifier.
We purchased it through Bed Bath and Beyond in a white finish. We set it up in about 5 min. on a side table in the living room a few days before my daughter and her family arrived for the Christmas holidays. It was set on the auto setting and along with a fresh furnace filter as we have always done almost monthly for 36 yrs. The first few days the BreatheSmart ran on high speed continuously but even at that the noise was so minimal that no one noticed unless right next to it. It did not look obvious in the room. Eventually it automatically went to a lower speed.
My daughter and her family spent a week with us. My daughter was so grateful. She felt so much better during her visit -allergy relief that she didn't even have to take her allergy pills except when she spend a day at another relatives home. Even her husband who is very particular commented that the air seemed noticeably fresher (maybe no old house smell). To have that visit go off without the usual discomfort and complaining was worth every penny spent on the air purifier.
It is now February, I feel that we have had this machine long enough to give it a fair evaluation. I have never turned the machine off. It is set on automatic and runs on low most of the time and we don't even notice it operating. Operating cost have not been noticeable. The Alen Breathe Smart Fit50 Air Purifier has been a good purchase for us and I would recommend it to anyone

Before we ordered our air

Before we ordered our air purifiers, I felt like I had to sneeze all the time and often woke up stuffy. Now I can breathe easier and wake up without any nasal problems.

Works well. We can now smoke in the house without having it smell like smoke. Allergies do not bother me as much any more.

I bought 3. I can tell a big difference-especially in the bedroom.

on January 11, 2016
Posted by: Joseph L.
My only complaint is that the turbo mode is fairly loud. To keep our place clean we end up setting it one speed lower and leaving it run. A great improvement would be the ability to set the max speed that auto will go to. Then we could use auto on a slower speed for noise and still have the unit slow down when higher speed not needed.
The same controls could still be used you would just set maximum speed you wanted it at then press auto instead of auto completely taking over.

This air filter looks good,

This air filter looks good, works well, and sounds nice. Many alternatives don't do at least one of the 3. We run ours a full speed and find the sound it makes to be very pleasing - kind of like a good white noise generator.
