Vicks Advanced Soothing Vapors Waterless Vaporizer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We purchased this for our baby's room when she was teething and having trouble sleeping at night. The plug-in itself is great because you can adjust the intensity of the aroma; you can also insert one VapoPad or two, which further controls the intensity. It also has a soft green night light.
The VapoPad has very soothing aromatic vapors: Rosemary Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, and Lavendar Oil. These aromas are all ideal for calming, relaxation, and sleeping. The unit comes with four VapoPads. You can purchase refills when you have used all of them: Vicks Soothing Vapors Replacement Pads.
My husband loves it so much we purchased one for our room!
*It should be noted that this particular Vicks product is not for congestion, but rather for soothing and comfort.

Homedics BRT-150 Brethe Air Revitalizer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If the price of the unit and scent accessories was lower I would have given five stars.
The supplied scents do a good job of 'freshening' (actually scenting) the air throughout most of my 1500 square foot house.
The fan noise is noticeable, I usually run it five or ten minutes at a time to achieve the same effect as spraying an aerosol air freshener. The blue lights in the tank are good for a 'mood' effect and can be switched off if desired. If you just want to 'tune out' for a few, this thing is excellent. My spouse smokes cigarettes several times a day and the BRT-150 does a good job of covering up the odor from a cigarette.
I would not say that this unit is a humidifier. It will run for three or four hours continuously and maybe only use a cup of water. I would also not call this unit an air cleaner as such. It is an effective air freshener. The air coming out just smells and feels good.
I, honestly, purchased the BRT-150 so that I could disburse essential oils without having to use heat, nebulizers just seem way too strange and complicated to me.
My wife thought the citrus scent was a little overpowering so I experimented a little and came up with a fairly good recipe for using essential (fragrance) oils. My recipe will only freshen up the air in the room it is in, not the whole house (I don't know how they get that strong of a scent from the supplied material).
I borrowed/modified this from a perfumers recipe for making a spray-able air freshener with essential oils.
1/4 teaspoon Polysorbate 80 (an emulsifier derived from natural oils). You can get this from a soap maker's supply store.
30-60 drops essential oils, some oils are stronger, experiment for the best amount for your choice. I used 30 drops of pine needle oil and that worked fine for me.
1 tablespoon of cheap vodka (for low smell alcohol). This is optional but I found the oil's scent was more intense with it.
Mix the ingredients with a few ounces of water and add to the water to the freshener's filled tank. You will see the familiar white bloom in the water as you add this mixture.
Have fun!
Ken

WBM 7-Inch Tall Aroma Therapy Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt Lamp with Lavender Oil Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i ordered 2 of these
1 came with no oil
the other the bulb blew out in 15 min
when it worked it seemed ok, the second one seems fine so far
build on both of them is medium quality
too bad there is not an option to buy higher quality salt lamps on amazon
another thing to keep in mind is the brochure with it says the lamp sweats and will ruin furniture if not put on a coaster or plate, i wish they sold some kind of holder for it or made it where the bottom would catch any moisture, that would seem to make sense, i plan to find some black plates or something similar to put them on, but that is kind of hassle
update
i ordered another one which was stupid of me, all 3 of these the bulbs quit within a week, and the cord just quit on the last one that is not a month old
this company has serious quality control problems, i would buy a different brand

Bring divine harmony to any room with this beautiful salt crystal lamp. Its therapeutic glow of orange hues infuses a natural calm bringing the mind and body to a gradual sense of tranquility and well being. Experience it for yourself, but wait this is not the only reason to have a salt crystal lamp. This lamp is scientifically proven to work like an air purifier and is often called-nature's air purifier. When the lamp is lit, it emits negative ions that fight against positively charged particles that cause us to feel stuffy and sluggish. (Allergens; smoke; dander; pollens and other air pollutants). It clears the air and naturally dilutes odors so that we can breathe easier. People with asthma often find it helpful in reducing their symptoms and many medical practitioners recommend using these lamps to help relieve depression and fatigue. The heat of the bulb will also diffuse the aroma from the essential oil. A few drops of essential oil is enough to fill your room with a great scent designed to reduce anxiety and enhance energy. Made of salt crystals, from deep within the himalayan mountains, home to the world's purest and most colorful salt. It is hand carved to preserve its natural beauty and attached to a neem base. It is almost maintenance free and is very easy to clean. Just wipe off the outside surface with a damp sponge and dry off with a paper towel. You can change the color of the bulb to give a different hue to the lighting area. You can keep the lamp lit for as long as you like and the longer you keep it on, the better the emission of negative ions. Place this lamp in your child's room and watch him fall asleep with gentle ease or put it next to your computer and feel your stress dissipate as the negative ions counteract the electromagnetic fields bouncing off the computer. You can put it in your tv room, or your office. It really doesn't matter which room you choose, it is totally up to you where you want to place this unique gift of nature.

Homedics Brethe Air Revitalizer Solution Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I liked my Homedics Breathe, but I was turned off by the fragrances that came with the unit. Having spent a lot of $$$ in humidifiers/ozone/air purifiers & co., I decided to test the use of this relatively inexpensive machine, using a different fragrance (even if the instructions specifically forbid this). Worst case scenario, I figured, I've thrown $50 down the drain (surely not for the last time!)
I found that you can pour in just a teaspoon or so of Mrs. Meyer's Ironing spray (love their smells), fill the tank up with water as usual and...
BOOM! Just kidding...
My Homedics has worked just fine for a month, now. A full size bottle of Mrs. Meyer's ironing spray is way cheaper than the Homedics refill... and you can't beat the smells of geranium, basil, lavender or lemon verbena. Try it yourself, but I warn you... I said to use the ironing spray which is a liquid, non-foaming solution. Other products, especially essential oils won't work or may clog your machine.
Once you try this, you'll be excited at the prospect of using the Homedics without being hooked to the purchase of so-so fragrances that are way too expensive, and not that enjoyable (according to my husband's nose!)
There, problem solved, my husband's nose is now finally satisfied!

Harmony House's Three-in-One Air Purifier, Humidifier and Air Freshener Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We got one of these and three of the other air purifier -- the one that is topped with a green leaf. The plastic bottoms are interchangeable even though they are austensibly different products from different manufacturers -- one from Thermax and one from Harmony House.
We traded in our HEPA Silent Comfort air purifier because it is noisy and, while it works, doesn't cleanse the air sufficiently of cigarette smoke. We bought two of these to try in our 3,500 square foot house and immediately decided to buy two more. It's remarkably quiet and sitting two yards from a person smoking, I can't smell the cigarette.
In addition to a reduction in allergy symptoms -- red eyes and runny noses, we've noticed the increase in humidity has reduced the natural dryness that comes from living in the desert. We're still waiting,wondering and hoping we'll notice a reduction in the need to dust. It seems logical that these air purifiers would also trap the desert dust from the air.
This is a great product and we're very glad we tried it.
New Information:
We've had the purifiers almost a month. We noticed buildup under the hood from the water. It isn't easy to clean because the top -- the area where all the electronics are -- doesn't come apart. There doesn't appear any easy way to clean the hard water spots.
I wrote to the manufacture to ask if there a way to disassemble the purifier to clean the top.

Thermax Mini Max (Large) Water Based Air Purifier/Air Freshener Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought one of these, and have had it running for two weeks now. Here is what you should know. First of all, it was fairly loud out of the box. But over the course of the first week, as the motor broke in, it became a little quieter each day. I was worried that it wasn't doing anything at first, because it really doesn't move much air. But it definately picks up a lot of crud out of the air. The 'clean' water will often become VERY cloudy over the course of 24 hours. The 'smell' addetives they include are not as critical as they make it sound. It cleans the air just fine with plain water. However, if I have company coming over, I may add a drop of the blue stuff just to help freshen up the room a little more.
I finally understand the weakness of a water-based air cleaner compared to the other types. The other ones you can just setup in some corner, and forget about it for weeks. That is not the case with this machine. Because water evaporates, you need to pay attention to this thing every day. Currently, the water goes down from the MAX line to the MIN line in about 24 hours, so I have to add or replace the water every day. I am also worried that this machine will not live very long. It seems cheaply constructed, and I am concerned it might stop working after a few months.
I bought it for a room in my house that honestly does not smell very good. I have tried cleaning it thoroughly, but that doesnt fix the problem. The smell does seem to have diminished quite a bit over these past two weeks that I have been running this machine.
I do recommend this to anyone who is looking for a low budget air cleaner, but with the understanding that you need to keep an eye on it's water level every day. Otherwise, don't bother buying it. It will not do you any good if all the water evaporates.
UPDATE July 2010: I have had this air cleaner running for about half a year now. It is still running. Although the noise level went down at first, it never comes close to being 'quiet'.
NEVER just add water to it. Always dump the water and put fresh water in. How this machine works is it sucks water up the small hole at the bottom of the spindle, and sprays it out the holes at the top of the spindle. The gunk it cleans out of the air will build up inside of the spindle. Eventually these dark clumps will break off and you will see them floating around inside the water, and they can plug up these small holes. You can reduce this problem by putting fresh water in each day insetad of adding water to dirty water.
Cleaning: The Spindle does NOT come apart, so cleaning the crud out isn't easy. I wouldn't recommend adding bleach or some other cleaning agent to the water. You wouldn't want poisonous stuff being spread into the air. I just do my best to clean the crud out of the spindle by blowing into the holes with an air compressor, or sticking small objects into the holes, like toothpicks or twist ties. It's not perfect, but thats about the best you can do without using chemicals.
