Carleen picked out this air purifier a couple weeks before Christmas. I really liked the design of it but she liked that the air freshener could go straight into the machine itself. On the plus side they aren't that expensive. On the downside they don't last terribly long even with the scent control on a relatively low level. However, over the last month t his air purifier has done its job, I just need someone to remind me to check the filter.

I am loving my Febreze Air Purifier. Whenever my room feels stale I simply turn it on to get the air feeling fresh again. We have two cats so it helps with with keeping our house fresh in spite of having them. The only thing I wasn't 100% fond of is the scent of the air freshener. I am not sure what scent it was but it smelled like baby powder to me so not the best smell but still smells clean at least. I received this product free for testing purposes. All opinions are 100% honest and my own.

    I'm very happy to be writing this review of Febreze Tower Air Purifier. I have a seven year old daughter who has asthma and allergies and one of her triggers is dust. We have tried many other air purifiers and they work for a day or so and I don't see any differnce. Immediately I can not only see a differnce in how much dust is in my home but I can smell it! My daughters allergies have been so much better since using this. My home smells fantastic. I wasn't sure how strong the scent would be and I didn't want it to be over powering but it is a very light scent but it's enough to know it's there. It does have a scent dial where you can turn it to the level you desire. Set up was super easy! We also have a new puppy in our home and everyone knows a puppy can be stinky! It came with I febreeze scent cartridge and two hepa filters which are easy to insert. It has buttons to remind you when you need to replace filter and scent which is an added plus. There are three settings, when you have it on low it's very quite which is nice,I can keep it going in my daughters room at night and it doesn't disturb her sleep. I have been using it for three weeks now and so far I am very impressed ! It works wonders ! The on,y thing I can foresee is having to buy two filters and a cartridge at a time to refill might be expensive but that's the only downside. I did receive this item at a free or discounted price for the purpose of the review. Options are one hundred percent my own and I do not guarantee a positive review.

      We were looking for an air filter when we received the Febreze Air Purifier. We have a high traffic home, live near a busy street and our area has experienced a large number of wild fires. Here is what I like: Air freshener with adjustable levels of scent or scent cartridge can be removed completely. Easily accessible air filters. Adjustable power levels for the air purifier. There are three settings to the power level. The lowest level we can barely hear and has a small bit of air flow. As you turn up the purifier it does get louder and there is more air movement. I will continue to use it and I highly recommend it. I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

        I have been using my Febreze HEPA-Type Mini Tower Air Purifier for about three (3) weeks and I love it. Prior to using this air purifier, our air was filled with dust particles and other allergens that had us pretty much sneezing our heads off. Also living in an apartment, our kitchen, dining room and living room are all one big space. This made it difficult to contain the sometimes unpleasant smells that can come with cooking and our kitchen trashcan. However, this air purifier has been great at getting rid of those odors. Also, we are sneezing a lot less than we used to. It feels great knowing that we are breathing in fresher, cleaner air now. While this product is virtually soundless on when used on the low (level 1) setting, my one complaint about this product is that it can be a bit noisy is used on medium (level 2 or ll) and definitely if used on high (level 3 or lll). Otherwise I don't have any issues with this product and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, easy to use and easy to store, but still packs a powerful punch air purifier. Disclosure: I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

          I have had this for about a week now and I noticed the difference on the first day! I love that there is not a "scent" that comes out. It just eats up odors. I was so skeptical at first. I have a toddler, a cat, and a grown man with me in a 30 year old 1000 sq ft apartment. The sink builds! But this guy did the trick! It can be noisy but it is just that peaceful fan noise. Additional Notes: This product is sold in 3 different sizes and the tower model is also available in graphite grey. I received this product free for testing purposes

            I have been using this product for a few weeks now and I do notice a difference in the quality of my hair. I was excited to receive the tower because I have a dog and a cat...and feel that no matter how many candles/sprays I use, you can still very much smell cat/dog odor in my home. We live in an open concept home, that doesn't allow for hiding the cat's litter box very well, so unfortunately it's in a closet right in our living room. So I set this tower up next to that closet to freshen the large area that is open between our kitchen and living room. I noticed a difference almost immediately (an hour or two) after turning it on. The cat's litter box odor was almost nonexistent...I was so happy. The only thing I would want is for the scent to be more powerful (or offer more than 2 scent options) and that the fan rotate as we have space and I feel like it only blows towards the center of the room. Overall, a great product and simple to use! *I received this product free for testing purposes

              Surprisingly Effective!
              I have a really smelly old dog. We've been trying to get him to stop smelling so bad: allergy meds, baths... nothing seems to work. I hate how my living room smells. So when I opened up the Febreeze Tower Air Purifier, I was kind of skeptical that it would help at all. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that when I had it on, I did not notice the awful stinky dog smell! So I think that's a pretty good testimony as to its effectiveness. It's also pretty quiet on the low or medium setting. The high setting is more noticeable, and it blows more air, like a fan, from the front. Not sure if during the chilly winter months I'd want a fan on in the room! Overall though I'm very pleased with this air purifier! Please note: I received this product free for testing purposes.

              I love this air purifier
              I was given this item to test and review. The tower was light and easy to set up. I placed it in my bedroom. I have three dogs and it doesn't take much for it to smell. I placed the Febreze cartridge in and selected the amount of scent and unwrapped the two filters. After one hour, I noticed the air was clearer and the scent was light, not overwhelming. After three hours the dog smell was totally gone. After foujr days the filters were slightly dirty. I was able to rinse them off. I highly recommend this product.

              Efficient and Quiet
              This air purifier works great and is not too loud which is what I love. I have a 1 year old and want clean air in my home to reduce allergens. I have used it for about a week now and love the difference it has made for my family. There are 3 levels; low, medium and high. There is also a scent dial to turn up the scent control. It was so easy to set up, the scent cartridge is small and just pops right into the top. I am getting a puppy in the near future so I am so happy I have this purifier for pet dander and odors. I received this product complimentary for testing purposes. I would highly recommend this tower air purifier.

              Cleans air, use with/without scent
              I received a bigger version of this Febreze HEPA-type tower air purifier (FHT190) to review for free and have been using it for a week. At first, I was concerned that it takes in air and then blows out cold air. I realized it's just gotten cooler here in Ohio and that was the air in the room -- cold. The control panel has three cleaning settings, so I set it to the second to avoid the cold air blowing out. The purifier comes with a scent cartridge and two filters that I just needed to unwrap and put in place. The filters are replaceable dual-action HEPA-type ones with built-in activated carbon pre-filter. The air goes in and is freshened, taking out scents like our old-1957-house smell, strong cooking odors, as well as pet dander and other allergens. (I have a Chihuahua-Beagle mix and he sheds. Don't tell him.) It makes a quiet almost white noise sound that I am used to because I sleep with a sound machine. Because I am prone to migraines, I was concerned about one trigger: scent. The scent portion though is completely adjustable, so I can turn it up or down. No problem. So far, I am enjoying the air purifier and noticed that I am sneezing less, have less congestion, and our house smells nice. Note: This product is sold in 3 different sizes and the tower model is also available in graphite grey.

              Pretty good air purifier
              I received this product free for testing purposes. All opinions are my own and were formed through personal testing. Your results may vary from mine. I especially like the Febreze® Air Purifier because it uses Febreze scent cartridges that last up to a month, although they aren’t strong enough. At least not to me. And I have the dial turned all the way up. I was hoping that when I use the scent cartridge that it would really throw the scent into the room but I’m not getting that. In fact, I don’t smell it at all unless I get right down next to the machine. I pulled the cover off and inserted it like instructed but… nothing. I may have just gotten one that isn’t very strong but so far, no fragrance. I’ll try another one and see how it does. If it doesn’t throw the scent then I’ll chalk that up to one negative. The air purifier, on the other hand, is spectacular! It uses two HEPA filters that are supposed to be good for up to 4 months.. The air purifier pulls the dirty air in through the back, through the filters, and pushes it out the front. It is pretty powerful too. On high, it’s pretty loud and feels like a nice, cold fan. It actually made the room pretty cool! On medium or low, it is perfect. There are two dials on the top. One lets you adjust the fan and the other lets you adjust the fragrance cartridge. There are also two reset buttons. The HEPA filters are good for up to 4 months and the fragrance cartridge for one month. When you first turn it on it begins counting down that length of time. When you replace them you can push the reset button to begin a new countdown. I noticed right away that cooking odors weren’t as strong. (onions and garlic) I’ve been using the slow cooker which permeates the entire house. With the Febreze® Air Purifier I haven’t noticed the lingering scent of food odors. I also haven’t noticed the smell of the cat and dog. I do try to keep their odors at bay but, you know, they sometimes stink things up, regardless. I haven’t noticed it as much lately. Overall, I'd say this is a pretty good air purifier.

                Breathing Easier!
                I received this air purifier for free in exchange for my review after testing. We all suffer from allergies, so I set up this air purifier in the main living area of our home. I also put it beside the boys' shoe box, to take care of unwanted odors! I can definitely tell a difference if it is on or off. The air just smells better and is easier to breathe when the air purifier has been running. The setup and operation is fairly straightforward and easy. Just make sure to full unpack it and remove all plastic. You can add a scent cartridge, or not, it's up to you. Adjust the scent intensity as well as the air cleaning intensity. This air purifier isn't LOUD, but it does make a subtle white noise. It would be great for sleeping!

                      I bought 2, 1 for a bedroom, and 1 for the living room. They work really well, helped with our allergy problems. Only thing is that the scent pads do not put out any scent from either 1, at least it filters the air.

                      I got this as a gift in exchange for my honest review. I really like the look of the tower and it really moves air around. The only thing I am not sold on is the use of the Febreze scent stick. I mean, once the air is purified through the filter, why do you need to add a scent to it that probably also adds impurities right back into the air? It smells nice, but sort of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

                          I really like this air purifier from febreze. It makes office smell nice and I find it feels easier to breathe in that room than it does in the other rooms of my home. The machine does sound like a low fan running but it's not bothersome at all. You can customize how much scent you want it to release, as well. I have been running this every day for several weeks now and I haven't had my usual sniffles so I assume it's working by filtering the air. I was sent this product free for evaluation purposes.

                            Our bedroom always has a dog smell since we had three. This product works amazingly well. Light scent, runs very quietly, and we don't have to run it all day for it to remove daily odors. I rec d this product complimentary for review.

                              Receiving Febreze's Tower Hepa Air Purifier complimentary to review is one of the best things to happen to me and my household. Upon opening, I found the setup for this purifier to be absolutely seamless. It was swift and simple and we were up and running in no time. The fresh linen scent is such a breath of fresh air. I love walking into my house and smelling it. The air has been noticeably lighter since using this product. My children and I had a persistent cough for several months and it has just about cleared up entirely for all three of us. We have two dogs and this is the perfect combatant to all things furry and dandered. I can't wait to see how this continues to help in the future.

                                Great product with pets
                                We have 2 dogs that shed a lot and sleep in our bedroom. We set up our Febreze air purifier in our bedroom and it has made a huge difference. There is less of a dog smell and less accumulation of dust and dander from the dogs. I was also very impressed with how quiet the air purifier is. I am a light sleeper and was concerned the noise would bother me but I didn't even notice it. I like the 3 levels too. The air purifier can also still be used without the febreze strips (though the strips provide a nice fragrance). Note: I received this product free for testing purposes.

                                    I really like that it just runs and keeps the air in my house clean without being very loud. I honestly don't even notice it is on. The scent feature is really nice and it helps the house stay fresh, even with 2 dogs. I do wish the scent filter lasted a bit longer since I run the scent on low but other than that, i would recommend this product! I received this product free for testing and review purposes.
