 Incredibly QuietOct 06, 2010
By Spike
First off I am amazed at how quiet it is. It is only loud on the highest setting, and even that is bearable, it is similar to running a box fan on high. However, as soon as you switch to the next setting down, it is much quieter, about the sound of a low fan or in some cases the sound AC makes when running - I think this is a great setting still good air flow but much too quiet to disturb anyone. The next two settings down, I literally CANNOT HEAR AT ALL! Specifically the next one down, I can only hear if I put my ear up close to it, and the lowest setting, "HEPA silent" I had to feel the airflow to be sure it was running. This is great, compared to my other air purifier (Honeywell 50250N) it is much quieter - it's second highest speed setting is as or more quiet than the lowest setting on my Honeywell, and it is also designed to cover a larger area and has a special filter option for filtering smoke.
I've only just bought it and ran it one day, so I can't say yet for sure how well it will filter the air, but so far it seems to be doing a good job, the air smells fresher and I haven't noticed the occasional smoke order - I'll be able to tell better when it gets colder and the people in the apartment below me and around me smoke more indoors. The reason I got it was particularly to deal with the chain-smoking idiots who live below and around me - whenever it gets cold they pretty much smoke constantly inside their apartment, and all the smoke seems to get filtered by the apartment building design into my apartment. I may update this review after I've used the purifier for a few months.

Very pleased with the resultsOct 01, 2010
By Go Penguins
Wow. I am shocked to say the results were within 2 hours. Current apartment has black mold. Asthma has been horrible wherever I go.. always using an inhaler and constant sneezing, head congestion, chest congestion, not sleeping, missing work, etc. I do have allergies and sinus issues, but... they were controllable and I was rarely using my inhaler until they started ripping the black mold out of the wall / drywall. I bought this to help until I move in a few weeks. I changed my mind about putting it in the current apartment (didn't want the mold in the new air filter). So I took it to the new place. Remember, no matter where I went, my asthma has been an issue (work, shopping, family). I cranked the Blueair on Max. After 2 hours I sat on the floor to unpack a few boxes. I was noticing my breathing was deeper, not shallow from my upper chest, but from my diaphram. I laid on the floor. I could breathe! It was effortless and not a struggle. No wonder I have been so exhausted.. it had become a struggle to breathe regardless where I was. I worked in the new apt for about 6 hrs. NEVER used my inhaler. Went back to current apt... used the inhaler within 2 hours. ?!?! Until I could FINALLY breathe normally, I didn't realize how this had crept up and was getting worse. Honestly I could cry. Because of the Blueair, I will be suing my apartment building. $400 is nothing to sneeze at (!), and money is very tight, but it is so worth feeling better.
It is loud on max speed, but it was not annoying to me. On low speed, I could barely hear it. So I'm sure the sound isn't anything to keep me up at night.

 seems to work wellApr 10, 2011
By CJ
I originally purchased the whirlpool air purifier ap51030k which is highly recommended by users and Consumer Reports, but it was just too loud even on its lowest setting. It does seem to work well, but it vibrates and has a stiff breeze even on its lowest setting. After more than a week I still could not get used to the noise. In the morning I would wake up and wonder what the sound was even though it is another room. The whirlpool model is more attractive than the blue air and offers more extras (filter replacement light, etc...). But, the blue air model is nearly silent even on the next to lowest level. I leave it on the next to lowest level all the time except for when everyone is out of the house then I turn it on high for several hours. The high setting is extremely loud. Overall, it seems to work well, but I can't say that I notice any difference in air quality for certain. I burn wood to heat my house (via an insert) which is the main reason I purchased the purifier. I am concerned over the ash in the air and the high level of dust. I hope it is helping. There does seem to be less dust, but is it a statistically significant difference-??? It is pretty industrial looking, but I am glad I purchased it.
If you are considering this model and the whirlpool model I would buy this one if you are noise sensitive and the whirlpool model if you are not.

Blueair 503 Hepa works great - Amazon purchaseMay 19, 2010
By Nadine Findley
I purchased this about 1 year ago. We're remodeling the house so there is lots of dust. I run this for about 1 to 3 hours at night at the highest speed. Consumer's Reports says that it cleaned the air better if you run this at the highest speed. I seem to sleep better at night if I run this before bedtime. It's loud so I never run it when I'm trying to sleep. I have less allergies when I use the Blueair 503. I also find that it's easier to buy products from Amazon because if there is a problem, Amazon will take care of it.

 Good system but filters cost 2 muchJul 07, 2011
By Silver_diamond2077
i've had mine for 4 years and got to say it's a wonderful system well made . it's just the price of the filters is way to high . I'm always trying to make them last longer then the 6 months because I can't afford $450 for the system + $160 a year for the filters. the makers of this system must be swimming in a pool full of gold being they don't only make allot on the unit but the over priced filters you are forced to buy 2 times a year .
