Ivation Ozone Generator Air Purifier, Ionizer & Deodorizer -Purifies Up to 3,500 Sq/Ft -Great for Dust, Pollen, Pets, Smoke & More Cherry

The item arrived quickly, which was very welcome as I was getting over bronchitis at the time and dealing with very poor air quality in my apartment. I read the instructions, inserted the ceramic plate and plugged it in on my kitchen counter for an hour, before moving it to my bedroom (really, though, there was no need to move it since my apartment is fairly small and I just need to keep the doors open). My entire apartment smelled amazing within 3 hours and I slept better that night than I have in years! Needless to say, it also helped speed up my healing process at that point. Now, we have entered allergy season in the Pacific Northwest. Still amazed! I run it most of the time, occasionally turning it off during the day when I am at work. My apartment now constantly smells great and I sleep well EVERY NIGHT. Because I get a rest from all the air pollutants at night and am not breathing in all that pollen and junk, I find I barely need any allergy medication at all. A few sneezes here and there, but no itchy watery eyes, no runny nose, no sneezing fits that leave me breathless, no extra fatigue from my body working so hard to combat all the pollen...I'm really enjoying spring this year without feeling like I have to hide away from the pollen. Now, my body gets a true rest with clean air each night, rather than breathing in all the pollen and particulates 24/7 with no respite. I love this machine! My quality of life has improved dramatically and I am overjoyed by it. I have an older dog with a few health problems and this machine has helped with those odors as well. I rarely use the ozone feature, which is on a separate dial, because it is very powerful. When I do switch it on, I find myself turning it off again after about 15 minutes. It has been really effective using both ionizer and ozone features when pointed at the open cupboard beneath my kitchen sink to deal with mildew smell caused by a slow leak I had a while ago. Note: I don't generally write glowing reviews about stuff. This little gizmo is awesome! No expensive filters. Pleasant looking. Not overly heavy, easy to move around. Amazingly effective.

This works great, the price is very good & it's quick & easy to clean!

This a great product! First few days I used it in my huge basement where the dogs are kenneled (dogs were gone for a week), used in 2 vehicles (one that packrats got in to and stunk it up) and used to freshen up my bedroom that has very old quilts that are 50+ years old. I am 100% happy with this product! Took care of all the smells and freshened everything up. It's been a week or so since I've used it and everything still smells fresh, like new! Would buy again and recommending it to my friends. UPDATE: All the above areas are still odor free. I have had this machine for 3 months. I left it in a large home running for 3 days, and it completely removed the diffuser oregano oil smell from the home. Also left it to run for 3 days in a newly vacant 2 story 4 bedroom rental. The place wreaked of musty B.O and greasy cooking. Both places still smell fresh and clean from the ozone machine. It's working great and 100% satisfied! 🙂

I really wanted to like these units. I purchased one in 2021 and splurged and purchased a second unit less than 12 months later. Shortly after purchasing my 2nd unit, my first one died. I made the mistake of ordering a replacement unit for my first one that died (in 2023) just chalking it up to maybe having the luck of the draw and a defective unit. Well today, another one died. I was contemplating purchasing my 4th one until I realized that I have basically purchased one each year from 2021, 2022 and 2023 when looking back at my Amazon history. If these were substantially cheaper or lasted longer, I would probably consider it, but at this point I think I'll do some more research and send my $150 to another manufacturer and hope for better results. It's a shame, because the cabinet is heavy and solid and they give the illusion of being a quality product, but for some reason the 'internals' don't seem to stand the test of time. Fool me once, shame on you - fool me a 4th time - well not gonna happen.

I should say first that I've had trouble with ozone generators in the past. The first was my own error. I once had an ozone generator (OG) which had been given to me by my father. I liked how it got rid of smells and seemed to freshen the air. So I ran it at full intensity while working in my home office, with the door closed. I'd heard that ozone breaks down into oxygen and thought, for some vague reason, that this meant it would be fine to breathe it. (Not smart, I know.) This was decades ago, before it was widely known that ozone can be problematic. But I still should have done more research before using it without ventilation. After several weeks of doing this, I found abruptly that I couldn't breathe... could not get air into my lungs. I ended up taking a trip by ambulance to the local hospital. They gave me oxygen and I recovered. Based on this (expensive) experience I learned that it really, truly is good to NOT breathe ozone. You might be able to breathe a small amount in without a problem, or think there's not a problem, but if can be dangerous, so it's best to avoid breathing it in, especially in a concentrated dose. Five years ago, I bought a new ozone generator from Amazon. I'd learned by then not to breathe the ozone, but missed the air purifying qualities of the OG I'd owned. I planned to run it when I wasn't home. But the one I bought was terrible. The "ozone" or whatever it was producing smelled like burning plastic. It reeked, and made everything in the room I had tested it with also reek. I actually had to throw a bunch of clothes away, because they stunk so badly. Ozone does have a sharp, acrid smell but it shouldn't smell like toxic waste. Whatever that OG was producing was not pure ozone. I returned it to Amazon. A few months ago, I bought this one. And... it's great. Unlike the weird one I bought five years ago, this one makes real ozone. I recognize the smell. But of course, I don't breathe it. Instead, I put it on sometimes when I'm leaving the house, using a timer so it'll shut off production of ozone an hour before I get back. And I leave a ceiling fan going. That gives the ozone time to dissipate and degrade into oxygen. The house smells fresh and clean, all odors gone, when I get home. I don't know if ozone kills all viruses; I suspect it may; but I know it kills some, and using one (when not home) is a good way to clear them out of the air. The other feature this one has, besides a highly effective ozone generator, is a very potent ionizer. It's on a separate control, so you can use it on its own. As far as I know, it ONLY generated ions, not ozone, when you use that knob. I do use this feature when I'm home, because I'm in wildfire-smoke-country and it helps clean the smoke out of the air. (I also have a Winix air purifier that I usually have going at the same time. Together, they totally clear out the smoke. One funny note: when the Winix is on auto, if I turn on the ionizer on the ozone generator, the Winix detects the ions in the air and comes screeching on to try to get rid of them. So I run them in opposite sides of the house.
