 Better than its manufacturer!Sep 07, 2009
By Leslie J. Quinn
We purchased this to try to address moisquitos getting into our cabin and bothering us at night. It picked up quite a few, although they still bothered us as well. But out of the box, the black light didn't work. As the text stated it was a new type, I didn't know how bright it should be. Called the 800 number and left a message. After a couple of days, opened it up and found the bulb wasn't plugged in, so plugged it in and then the light worked as well as the fan. The light and the fan takes some getting used to if you're trying to sleep in the same room with them, which we were. But three months later, I'm still waiting for Flowtron to call me back and address the question I had left with them. So the unit is OK, but the company isn't much on customer service (at least to this customer!).

Not very effectiveJul 27, 2010
By Tyler Durden
I own both the Flowtron BK80D and this "Galaxie" model. The reason I bought this unit was to avoid creating more noise (BK80D makes zapping noise). It does succeed in trapping small flying insects, just not enough. I see the "swarm" of insects around it, so the blacklight and octenol must be effective at drawing them in. I suspect the failure is the fan isn't strong enough to suck them in (evidence is little moths able to fly in/out and around it without getting trapped). I am ecstatic with the Flowtron BK80D - its a lean mean killing machine in comparison (piles and piles of insects fall to the ground). This unit barely got a handful after 2 months of continuous operation (and diligent octenol replacement). Sorry Flowtron, but this one is a miss!
Pros:
Quiet operation
Easy to clean
Cons:
Not very effective at sucking insects in

 Simply not workingMay 18, 2010
By George Nevis
We were eaten alive by mosquitoes while in the same room the lamp was on. Have been using it for a month now and didnt catch a single mosquito. Total waste of money.

FragileJul 31, 2011
By William Lewis Angus
"William Lewis Angus"
This unit captured hundreds or thousands of gnats, which I do not think the "zappers" do. But, when I emptied the trap and then tried to reinstall the trap, the steel rod onto which the thumb screw fastens broke the plastic into which it was attached by a screw. Must return and decide if I want a refund or replacement. I think the problem is a design flaw. Too bad, because the gnats were really being reduced.
