    Wanted an air purifier that could be moved from room to room easily. This model is compact and very easy to move. It also puts out cool air so we have used it on hot days to cool a room, or an individual, down. First two speeds are very quiet and third is quite noisy so we only use it when not in the room.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersThe only reason I did not give this five stars is because the filters are expensive. This is a great air purifier and looks good in the living room. It arrived well packaged with easy directions and set up. Does a great job and is not too loud. Even at the higher fan speed, it is not bothersome – more like white noise. I am really happy with this purchase.

    I use to wake up in the middle of the night coughing up mucus or coughing in general.

    I no longer do this anymore. I thought it was just something I had to live with forever & didn’t know something so simple like an air purifier would help.

    The air is more crisp & less dusty. I love this brand. Easy to clean & not expensive to replace the filters when needed.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our Userswas looking for one that wasn’t too large since my space is small and this fits perfectly for our home. I have this set up near my daughter’s playpen and it makes me feel good knowing she is breathing in clean air. I love that it is so quiet, not very loud at all and does not take up a lot of space.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our UsersI previously purchased one of these for the home theater in my home. As it got closer to winter and the air became dryer, and our Border Collie began to shed more growing in her winter coat I decided to buy a second one of these for the living room.

    The difference between the home theater room and the living room in the amount of dog hair we were seeing was a huge difference. The main floor where this second unit sits has more square footage than the basement area where the home theater is so I noticed that running it on medium (like in the basement) isn’t as effective as the first unit is in the smaller area.

    Running it on high does the job, but the fan on high is much louder than on medium.

    It does a great job and I know from the purchase of the first unit that the filters last a long time if you remember to clean the pre filters once a month. This is in a home with two long hair dogs.

    I purchased the higher rated filters for smoke assuming that they would help more with the dog hair. So far it seems like my hunch was right.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersWorks wonders!! Had a dust problem in our bedroom, could dust everyday, dust back the next day due to dryer being vented improperly. This totally keeps every bit of dust off the furniture! Have got the vent problem taken of. Would buy it again and highly recommend to friends and family. This item was recommended to me by a friend.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersIt does clean the air. It’s small-sits on a table top. The timer choices are 2,4,or 8 hours. I wish it could be set to stay on. Or at least 12 hours. Otherwise I’m satisfied with it. Very easy to use and I live in a very dusty area with a concrete plant just a couple miles away. And we’ve had the Sahara dust, pollen and God knows what else in the air. This stopped not only my cough but also my little Maltese seems to be doing better with his allergies.
    I would recommend this product.

    For this unit and assembly and tried it out. Fan wouldn’t turn. Turns out during fabrication, they forgot to remove a little piece of tape to keep it from spinning. After taking it apart (not hard to do) and removing the tape, it worked as expected. Easy fix luckily.

    Likes: very quiet in general unless on full on. But to be expected as it really gets the air circulating and definitely clears up a dusty room or odpurous room quicky. We leave this unit on in my child’s room 24/7. It really helps with removing the dirty diaper smell and find it helps her sleep during heavy pollen seasons. We’ve also noticed less mold growth on windows when condensation occurs. The HEPA filters seem to do a great job (yes there are 2 of them, 1 for each intake). The child lock is very handy too.

    Dislikes: very minor dislike is dimming lights on this unit isn’t complete. There is still a green light on and even though it isn’t bright, I would still like to have it go off. Also, to use any functions, you have to press that green light to reveal the controls. It would be nice to have it turn off like a smartphone screen and then when you touch the units control panel, it lights up.

    If it came fully working, I’d give 5 stars as I shouldn’t have to fix it. I could’ve returned it and it probably would’ve ended up in landfill while I wait for another one (lose-lose).

    Golden Review Award: 28 From Our UsersI just got the 2 pack and put one in my living room and one in my bedroom. The 2 pack was perfect for my 750 sq ft apartment. Not only does it purify well, it also blows out cooler air so it doubles down as a fan. My bedroom was a few degrees cooler after leaving it on the medium setting for an hour. I originally got this to minimize allergies from the cats and pollen for my husband, but was impressed with odor control too. I have one near the kitty litter box and I normally smell my cat’s poop if I don’t scoop it right away, but it was minimized with the purifier on. It’s still there, but not as noticeable. Some tips for maximizing your air purifier benefits:
    1. Have 1 in each room with closed doors & windows
    2. Keep away from kitchen or bathroom (high smoke & humidity is bad for air purifiers)
    3. Place the purifiers on an elevated space, like on a table or stand. The elevation helps it come into contact with circulating air better. For the same reason, avoid putting it in a corner next to walls. You won’t get the best results.
    4. Once a month, remove the 2 filters & vacuum each one with a brush attachment.
    5. Replace filters 2x-3x/year (as instructed in the manual).

    This is probably OK for smaller rooms and wish I had bought the more powerful set. My grandson has asthma and Allergies and I wanted a really good one for his bedroom. His BD approximately 11’X11′ but the ceiling is really high so it takes longer to circulate and purify the air. The unit it self seem well made and would fit in with most any decor.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThis air purifier was significantly less expensive than the one recommended to me so I bought the two-pack. The first night I used it I noticed a big difference in my sleep. I had less congestion and fell asleep much quicker. The medium setting provided a nice level of white noise, and the unit is sleek and attractive without taking up too much space. I had to leave the bedroom door cracked so my pets could come and go, but even with that it still worked well. The next morning I tried the other unit in my open concept kitchen and turned the fan on high, since it was a bigger space to clear. The high setting is quite noisy and scared the cats! It also blows cold air directly onto anyone sitting in its path, but I can put up with that if it’s doing its job. I assumed it was. Overall, I believe it was a good choice and a quality product.

    I bought this a few months ago and it said frequently bought together and replacement filters were there. So I bought the replacement filters and I’ve come to actually replace them and these filter are way too big? I’m unsure where to get the right filters from and annoyed I wasted money on the wrong ones which I was prompted to do!

    This dang unit doesn’t tell you when your filters are bad! I hate it. My Hone**ell tower is so good at reminding me it’s time to replace filters. I had filters in this Medify forever expecting it to tell me when they needed to be replaced. Lol Obviously user error, but this sht isn’t cheap, add a filter function!
    I have a noise machine in my bedroom, but my husband loves this for the same, in the living room. His snore room The sound is calming. The fan blows pretty good too. Any time someone is sick we crank this up and leave it running for days.

    It seems to catch a lot of dust by the look of the filters, but for some reason there is always dust around it too. On top, and on the furniture beside it. But the air in my living room seems fresher.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersWe live in a big city so air purifiers to help reduce air particles / dust are important. We also have 2 cats and 2 kids and a good friend with a cat allergy so need something that works well. We bought this unit for our living/dining/kitchen area which is just about 1000sf. Out of the box, this unit was super easy to get started and immediately began clearing the air – the sun was shining through the window so we could literally see the dust flow towards the unit’s 2 filters!
    Here are the PROS IMO:
    1. Filters are super easy to clean and change – the covers easily pinch to pull off (though would not be easy for a small kid to do) and the filers have a tab to pull out. I vacuum the layer of dust that collect on the outside of the filter, then change every 6-12 months). The outer cover can also easily be cleaned with plain soap and water since it is 100% removable.
    2. Sound / speeds – there are 3 speeds on this unit. The first level is almost totally silent yet you can still feel a slight breeze from the output. the second is what I would describe as a light fan sound. The third speed is definitely louder and output stronger so we use it when cooking / cleaning or need to purify the entire room quickly for guests. What I do like about the 3rd setting is that it creates a good “white noise” for sleeping and drowns out “city noise” and other background noise.
    3. Portable – this unit is light weight and easy to carry from room to room. We transfer it to the kids rooms when they have friends over then back to the kitchen area when cooking, then to the bedroom at night.
    4. Cost – this was less expensive than many other comparable units that cover large rooms
    5. Style – this has a nice, clean, modern style that can blend into any room.

    CONS
    well, none yet! If there was an additional feature I would like to see it would be a sensor of just how clean the air is.

    I highly recommend this unit!

    Golden Review Award: 38 From Our UsersMy older air purifier (different manufacturer) had failed and, after a few months, I detected the air quality in the house was suffering. The Medify MA-25 was rated the best quality model of its size in an independent comparison I found online. While slightly more expensive than others of similar size, I chose this model because the quality of construction and cleaning effectiveness were rated the highest. After a few weeks, I am very satisfied with the performance of the unit, so much so that I went back and purchased a second unit for use in other rooms. Selection of fan speeds and shut-off timer are good, and work well. Removal of odours (e.g. cooking smells, pet smells) was also immediate due to the carbon filter. The room air seems “fresher” and allergic effects on sinuses have bee significantly reduced. I like the clean and compact design, and the ease of changing filters on each side of the unit. My only criticism is that the third (high) fan speed is fairly noisy if you remain in the room. At the second speed, the low noise is almost unnoticeable. I like the units very much and would recommend them for rooms of 1000 sq ft or less.
    My biggest criticism is of Amazon and its pricing. When I went to reorder the second unit, the price for the white model had increased by $80. So, I ordered the black model at the original price. One week after the black model arrived, the Amazon price for the black model had returned to its original level. That’s not a big issue for me, although I would have ordered both units in white, by why the pricing trickery?

    Golden Review Award: 61 From Our UsersI have been thrilled with how well these work. We bought the two pack for the downstairs of our house (downstairs is probably about 1500 sqft). We put one in the front room and one in our living room, actually right on top of our dog’s crate. Every morning when I would open the curtains in my home, there would be particles everywhere. Not anymore. Now, there is nothing floating around. I keep them running on high most of the time. We have two cats and a german shepherd, there is not fur flying around at all. We purchased these four months ago and just this morning I noticed that the filter needs to be cleaned, I check it every week when I dust it. The one in the front room still has a lot of life left in the filter. So, I would say the 3-4 month lifetime on the filters that is stated is very accurate. This was a wise purchase, if you are looking for a great filter for your home, this is it!

    Comes with a complete set of filters (two), although I initially installed them wrong-way around. White side (not grey side) of the filters should show when installed.
    Regardless, it ran just great with the filters installed backwards, and it also runs just great when properly assembled. Presumably, the filtration is better or more long-lasting when done correctly. Well. Details.
    I forget what I paid for this thing. I don’t care — it’s great. There are three speeds. Slow is just BARELY audible when I’m next to it and there’s nothing else going one. Fast is noisy and moves enough air to make it noticeably cooler in here (small apartment).
    I’m going to order a set of filters for standby. I might update this if I find that the filters for some reason seem unduly short-lived. If I do NOT update this, you may conclude that I never saw fit to edit this five-star review.

    As soon as Medify found out about the clicking they worked with me to troubleshoot the issue. The product was determined defective and they sent me a pre-paid UPS return shipping label and then sent me a new one. I had it within the week and it works like a dream!
    It is quiet, cleans the air of odor and particles, and unobtrusive. The one thing that would make it perfect is if, when I turned it off, the on button didn’t continuously flash. Fortunately, I don’t need it for my bedroom where the flashing would disrupt my sleep.

    Initial Review:
    After unwrapping the air purifier and first turning it on, I was surprised to hear a clicking sound. I don’t know if it is the fan or some other mechanism, but I’m concerned it could mean something inside the unit is not attached properly. Sometimes the clicking goes away, but it always comes back.
    Otherwise, it does what it is supposed to do and I’m glad to have it in my home.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersOverall: decent overly-adverrised air purifier that is a bit expensive for what you get. There are 2 filters (you use both at once) and the unit manages to move a lot of air. It doesn’t not come with an “eco” mode that auto-adjusts fan settings based on an air quality detector that some many other purifiers in its price range has. The filters are also more expensive than for other similar purifiers. I say it’s over-advertised because it was one of the first units to talk about “medical grade H13” filters, etc but really many other units of similar size and function also have the same grade of filters. In other words nothing that really makes it more special or worth the price given there’s no eco/auto mode. -1 star

    Noise level: very quiet on low settings. I never notice it’s there.
    Timer function: works. I wish it were more programmable, but that’s ok.
    Maneuverability: icons are simple and intuitive. Nothing special or terribly wrong here. The nice cube-like size makes it fit nicely on a table.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersOur son has a significant allergy to dust mites so we’ve been doing everything we can to keep his room clean. This device has been a great help. It is not very large, it is quiet* and you can tell the difference from when it has been running or not. The controls are easy to use.

    The unit has a timer, but it works like a sleep timer–e.g. run for 30 minutes. The device would much improved if it had an option to run 20 minutes an hour or an hour a day or something. Something to set and forget about, and it’ll just work.

    Alternately, an option to run until air quality hits a certain threshold then start again when air quality gets above that threshold. Like a dehumidifier that runs whenever is needed to keep humidity below XX%.

    * Within a few days of receiving our unit, it developed a slight rattle. It isn’t lout and you wouldn’t notice except on the lowest setting. The company suggested some things to try with the filters and device, but the rattle seems to be coming from the fan. They offered to replace it, but we’ve pitched the packaging and it is really a big hassle for such a little rattle. I’ll keep this post updated on whether the rattle becomes worse or not.

    Golden Review Award: 16 From Our UsersThis is my second air filtration purchase this year. I saw it used at my dentists office – because of COVID she purchased for each dental room. I got to see it firsthand before I purchased so that was helpful. I prefer the Medify over the Revital air because of its features. It has a timer setting which I like as well as a three speed fan plus unlike the Revital it also blows air through the circle vents which is really nice. It also has a dimmer light that shuts off the “on” button lighting. I purchased it early July and have to mention that it’s due for a filter change in 2 months but I’ve used it every night in my bedroom as a filter but to also drown out some outside noise. I use the medium speed fan for this. My house is not overly dusty and I don’t have pets and I don’t burn scented anything in the same room so someone with more traffic and wall to wall may not get 2 months worth. I also put it upon a writing desk that I have and it’s compact enough that it doesn’t take up too much room.

    Medify Medical Filtration Air Purifier
    When I placed an order, there was a notification that this item will take longer to be delivered. I received it a few days earlier that the expected delivery date – wonderful! I turn it in the kitchen after cooking. The cooking smell was gone. But the main reason for this purchase is help clean the air in house due to the smell of smoke of the fires – which about an hour or so away. We kept our Windows & doors for days, but we can smell the smoke throughout the house. I ran this on low speed and can only barely hear a hum. On another note, I turned the fan speed to the highest setting (there is also a medium speed). The sound is louder but it is more of an even fan sound, like air blowing. I can fall asleep with this on.
    Timer works just fine & turns off silently that I forgot I set the timer on. There is a child lock on top with the other functions, but I don’t need to use it. Lastly, the function buttons need a light touch. It feels touching a digital screen but it isn’t. Overall, it is a pricey purchase but worth it. (After previously purchasing 2 other brand air purifier & replacing it 2 twice before it is a year old. ) I could smell the difference with the Medify.
    July 2022 – update. I run this air purifier quite a bit. It still functions normally. On this specific model, there is no indicator to change out the filter. Since I bought it, I changed the filter out probably 1 yr to 1.5 years. I should have checked the filters sooner. There are two filters in one order: one for the front panel and for the back panel of the unit. Lastly, I suggest not to put the air purifier unit flushed against the wall, but away from the wall. I still recommend this air purifier.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersWith the COVID-19 pandemic in motion, anyone with an office should highly consider getting an air purifier such as this one. My office is about 500 sq feet. The first day I got this I turned it on full blast and left my office for about 30-40 minutes. When I returned, the air quality was greatly improved – so I knew this thing was working properly. I usually now keep it at the middle fan speed and keep it running during business hours. Even regardless of the pandemic it is a good idea to keep you and your employees breathing good air. You wouldn’t want to drink dirty water all day, so why breathe dirty air? Make sure you clean and replace filters as directed.

    For the price, you most likely will not fine something of better quality. The next quality step up will run you into a few hundred dollars.

    If you have an office larger then 500 sq feet this may not do the trick. This product is perfect for a small office, bed-room, living-room, or really any small-ish area someone will be spending time in and potentially interacting with others.

    Couldn’t afford another IQ system at almost $1k, so researched and found this unit. Was concerned the size may not work in the area used, but it is effective. 3 fan speeds are very nice. Super quick and easy to assemble. Nice control displays on the top – easy to see and operate, but not too bright. Has removed both the smell from the fireplace and other smell that was a problem. Am very pleased with this purchase. Because of the size, I found it very easy to position it where needed. I actually have it on the bottom shelf of a tall, decorative stand (used for displaying plants). This raised it about 10″ off the floor, which I think helps. The improvement has been most noticeable. We are no longer hit with the smells when entering this room. The air smells clean . Not too noisy, but the noise level will increase with the higher fan speed. We keep the unit running non stop. Don’t even notice the sound unless the room has no other sounds. Sound is white noise, which is comforting for some. Yes, we recommend!

    Golden Review Award: 21 From Our UsersOK. So I am a air purifier snob. I have owned 4 Blueair 400 series purifiers and 4 Blueair 200 series purifiers. I still have all of them except for 1 of the 400’s (which sadly died after 2 replacements and 5 years). I also have 5 winix (and winix style) purifiers. One is a Kenmore I bought 12 years ago, but they all take the same winix standard HEPA Filters.

    Anyways, point is, I know and love my HEPA purifiers. I have 1 in every room, closet and crawl space running on low at 24/7. I was looking for cheaper replacement filters for my 400 series blueairs and I saw that H13 HEPA products are available now. After some research I decided to give this MA-25 a chance.

    My initial impression when the box arrived was, unimpressed. I spent $160 and the box was tiny. Like desktop humidifier tiny. It was weighed next to nothing. Needless to say I thought I may have made a mistake. Regardless I unpacked everything, glanced over the paperwork, and plugged it in, in my garage. I already have a winix purifier running in there, but I rehabbed a mold problem in there last month and I wanted to run the new H13 filter along side the winix to make sure any and all particles were captured.

    The purifier seemed about half size compared to the winix, but when I turned it on and put it on High, the airflow seemed to exceed that of the much larger winix air purifier. So…… if the filter is truly a super HEPA filter, the purifier itself is tiny and light weight, and the air flow is higher than I guess its a proper upgrade from my $150-$250 winix air purifiers.

    My only concern is that it feels flimsy. and the HEPA filters are really really small and thin. I wont remove stars for concerns that haven’t happened yet. As of right now I am hopeful. If you read this review 5 years from now and I haven’t updated it with a horror story then I guess it all worked out.

    2 year update: I still have the air filter and its still running strong. I have no reservations about my purchase and will buy another the next time Im in the market for an air purifier.

    My husband agreed years ago to foster guinea pigs with me, because I had them as a child and love the sweet little things. All was well for a few years, but about two years ago he started developing allergies to them. Now he deals with sneezing and a plugged nose on the daily. I’ve tried cleaning the cage more often, putting them in another room, putting the hay into a closed container… No dice. I did get an air purifier for our bedroom and it definitely helped, but I realized I needed something for the living room. The problem is that my living room is HUGE – 20 ft x 20 ft! All the air purifiers I looked at were for something smaller. I was so happy when I found this one!

    It works like a charm. It’s stupid easy to set up: take it out of the box, plug it in, turn it on, adjust fan speed. Done. I also like that it has the option to set it on a timer to turn off. Best of all – it WORKS. In just a couple days I have noticed a huge difference in the amount of dust motes floating in the air, and my husband’s breathing feels SO much better. On the lower settings it’s practically silent, but the highest setting is very minor and quickly fades into the background. If you’re on the fence – do it! This is a purchase I am super happy with and would gladly buy again!

    Golden Review Award: 115 From Our UsersI was surprised that such a small air filter had such a high rating and was designed for such a large space but once I received it I turned it on and the little bit of odor that was in the house from the 2 cats was taken care of almost immediately even on its lowest setting. It is virtually silent on its lowest setting. It is an incredibly powerful fan on its highest setting. I was glad to see that the touchscreen had a child lock display so my cats can’t change the settings on it when I leave it on if they decide to mess with it. The only real complaint that I have about this particular device is that the power light flashes constantly when it’s off. I don’t see any reason for this extra use of power especially when it has a timer that you can set to have it automatically turn off. I imagine that it’s probably so that you can turn it on even in the dark but it’s kind of a needless feature. I mean seriously who is going to turn on an air filter in a dark room? Other than that it has been excellent. I have asthma and allergies and two cats so this is exactly what I needed to be able to help me breathe a little bit better. Definitely worth the money especially because the filters are so easy to take in and out. I was really excited to see that as long as you submit your filter changes every four months to this company they actually have a lifetime warranty on this product that comes in the box for you with all the information that you need to take care of the filter changes. Honestly I think the only people who would review a product like this poorly are people who either got a damaged product due to shipping or manufacturing issues or somebody who didn’t pay attention when ordering. It does say that it includes “two sets” of filters which is a little unclear. Because the unit takes two filters I figured it was probably a skirt around what would be considered “false advertising.” I was right. Do not expect to get an extra SET of filters with this device. It comes with the 2 filter set to put in the device initially. It does not come with a spare. Quite frankly though, I didn’t expect it to have another set to begin with, and if you do expect to have another set, I have one particular turn of phrase for you: you get what you pay for. This was a good price for an air filter. You shouldn’t be expecting an extra set of filters for this price. Most air filters are over $200 if they’re good ones. If you are willing to pay the extra $40 with this, then you can order another set of filters with it very easily. Now, the reason I added this to my review is because I actually saw people complain about this issue, but its exactly what you should expect.

    I’ve never had an air purifier. I picked this one after much research. I have 5 dogs and a cat. I end up with dust on everything and I know it’s going on our lungs too.
    I placed this in our living room which is open to our dining room. My entire downstairs/house is quite open. I know this says it works best in a closed room but I am very pleased with it! It is silent on level 1 and barely noticible on level 2. We have it on level 2 when we are watching TV or talking in that room. We move it up to level 3 if we are just sitting in the room or when we aren’t in the room. It does act like a fan so you may need to think about which direction you point it in, especially on level 3! I typically dust my living room once a week but I have to wipe dust off the backs of our leather couches almost daily. I’m happy to say it has been one week since I dusted and the couches barely have anything on them! Upon looking I can see dust on the outside of the filters. I will vacuum it off today. I am so pleased with my purchase that I’m going to get a 2 pack for our bedrooms!
