Alen Purifier
on September 16, 2017
Posted by: Jeanne C.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just went to my doctor & had to do a regime of allergy pills and shots. But I still had all the symtoms of the allergies. Read all the information on ALL purifiers and this one was suggested, so I bought it instantly. I have 2 Dysons for the 2 small bedrooms but it would never work in the living room. The first time I used the Alen Fit 50 within ten minutes it felt so much cleaner. My husband loves it, he is a Vet and has no legs and when he gets up at 4 am, he told me he turns it on and it can smell the cleaner air. We also have a 110lb. long-haired Shiloh Shepherd as a service dog and no dog smell or anything. I am so HAPPY with this purifier and the quietness of it,and most of all it's total efficiency of purifying the air. LOVE IT!!!!

Quiet, adjusts speeds automatically, pre filter extends filter life

Bought the BreatheSmart Fit50 to use in the hall between two bedrooms. Last spring I ordered the bigger breatheSmart to use in the livingroom and kitchen area. Both units work great. I have an asthma like condition which seems to be improving since installing these units. I have three dogs so there is always a lot of pet hair and dander around, especially with the hot weather we have had lately.

The bunnies can stay!!
on October 8, 2014
Posted by: molson
I have suffered from allergies and asthma since I was a kid so I know how miserable it can be. The past few years my symptoms have been under control with medication and allergy shots. That all came crashing to an end when we learned the bunnies we adopted for our kids needed to be inside the house. I was back to being miserable and on the verge of sending the bunnies back when we decided to get this air filter. I no longer need to take my allergy medication and feel sleepy all day. I cannot put into words how much this has helped, it is amazing. I love how it will adjust cleaning levels depending on the level of pollutants in the air. Needless to say, my kids are happy to be keeping their bunnies.

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.

Efficient, Effective, Quiet
on March 2, 2017

Just purchased my third Alen filter and second FIT50. I am satisfied with each product because removes dust (my main objective) and cleans the air I breathe. FIT50 is so much quieter than the BreatheSmart and seems to filter just as well in a similar space. Price for the unit and replacement filter is quite aggressive, however, it does the job as described and from my perspective, and is worth the cost.

Love the smart fan speed feature! Great balance of performance, features, and low noise levels. Works well against mold and pollen allergies.

I have very strong mold and moderate pollen allergies. I ran this filter in my bedroom so I can have an allergy free place to sleep and I was impressed by its performance. I didn't have any issues in doors with pollen or mold allergies even during the ragweed or heavy rain season where the counts are high outside. My favorite feature about this air filter compared to others is the smart sensor where it automatically adjusts the fan speed based on particles its sensing in the air. I noticed it kicking up into high speed when I ended up stirring up dust from folding laundry, vacuuming, or even light smoke from cooking. This takes the guess work out of knowing when to turn up the fan speed and saves power. I also like how the filter is quiet enough to easily sleep while running, the ionizer doesnt make a buzzing sound like some other brands, has a slim compact footprint, and the clean air diffuses well across the room in the form of a gentle flow. A potential negative may be odor control. I didn’t test the version with carbon filter, but it may be hard to see how much carbon can fit into the slot for the air filter to reside compared against the bulkier brands out there. In terms of air filter longevity and pricing, I haven’t owned it long enough to speak to this yet. In terms of aesthetics, this has the best looking control interface I’ve used. In summary, I’ve used brands from BlueAir, IQ Air, Air Pura, and Sharp and this has been my favorite one so far in terms of balancing noise, performance, and features.

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.

The Breathesmart Fit50 is the best!
on June 23, 2014
Posted by: KitKatZ
The Breathesmart Fit50 is the best! I suffer from allergies and asthma. The purifier significantly reduces the allergens in the air. I love how it automatically adjusts to the changes in air quality. The Fit50 has two air filters. The first one is the Pre-Filter which can be washed or vacuumed. I believe this is a significant change which will help to maintain the purifier's performance. I keep mine in the bedroom. It's so quiet I can't even tell it's on, especially when I turn the lights of the unit off. The Breathesmart Fit50 does a great job and the air is so much cleaner! I would highly recommend it to anyone who suffers from allergies, has pets or is concerned about mold in their home.
