It is small wonder that when a well-designed air purifier wends its way to most online sites and claims to re-circulate cleaner air in fuss-free fashion, many consumers – most of them allergy sufferers — become a rapt audience.

Considering that these new electronic devices seem to be aesthetically suited for most modern contemporary homes today, and given their touted benefits of reducing irritants and other airborne allergens that cause a host of respiratory diseases and impaired overall well-being, the new wave of electronic air cleaners have generated much consumer interest.
A typical air purifier works by magnetically attracting airborne particles like house dust and other pollutants into its metal dust collection plates. Any homemaker will find the maintenance cleaning that follows (wiping the plates clean) a practically easy routine.  When particulates and residues from air sucked in for re-circulation accumulate in the metal dust collection plates after weeks of continuous use, the air purifier may produce a buzzing sound, signaling cleaning time. To wipe the metal dust collection plates clean, you can use a damp cloth. The plates will then have to be dried and re-inserted back in place.
One innovation that promises to clear a room (supposedly up to 500 square feet) of dust & other allergens is the compact Sharper Image Ionic Breeze Tabletop. Its features and specifications sound promising especially for consumers looking to avert the most toxic pitfalls when it comes to furnishing, refurbishing and remodeling their homes.
Ideal for small living spaces, the Ionic Breeze Tabletop air purifier is bruited as a quiet appliance. Moreover, consumers will find that the device has no disposable filters that continually need to be replaced. The product can be easily propped up. It does away with the additional accessories that most people end up purchasing to complement their newly bought appliances or electronic gadgetry. The Tabletop version of the Ionic Breeze line, retailing for around $200, offers two silent air-cleaning speeds to deal with dust and other allergans which are the culprits for a variety of illnesses.
The tabletop version of the Ionic Breeze Air Purifier line is suitable for one’s den or master’s bedroom with a study. It likewise holds an appeal for dormitories as well as corporate boardrooms. This tabletop version actually has two silent air-cleaning speeds.
Probably the critical chink in the armor of Sharper Image, the company which retails the Ionic Breeze line, is being the thumbs-down by the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology for being incapable of cleaning and enhancing air quality. When not cleaned well following constant use, the inner plates are unable to harness their capability to attract more dust particles.
