Holmes Air Purifier
The previous reviews of this product are pretty accurate.The issue of the rattling fan is true (I have proven to myself that it is the fan - my first guess is the use of sleeve instead of ball bearings, and the fan may be a bit underpowered to draw the air through the HEPA filters). Right out of the box it didn't have the rattling sound, but after just about 10 hours of running, there it was. Because of this, I would agree that putting it right in a bedroom would not be the thing to do. I don't have it right in the bedroom, and I do have a white noise generator on the headboard, so I don't notice that little rattling noise at night; and during the day it makes no difference to me anyway since I can't really hear it unless I am within about 10 feet of the unit.I like the ability to turn the ionizer on and off. I use the medium speed setting of the fan, as the high setting does result in noticeably higher fan noise (the rattling seems to stay at about the same...
BUYER BEWARE of Ionizer!!
Do NOT purchase a Holmes product with an ionizer. In fine print in their manual it says, "Note: It is important to replace the main filter at the recommended intervals. Using the ionizer in conjuction with dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the air purifier and being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture or other household objects. These dirty particles may prove very difficult to remove."Well let me tell you, we had replaced our filter when stated and still had dirty particles omitted in the air from the ionizer. It was so fine at first we didn't notice. When we noticed our daughter's room was covered in black soot and we have over $2000 in damages. The company made us send everything in and said we would hear back from the lab in 4-6 weeks. After getting the run around for nearly two months, they are denying our claim and will send us a new air purifier. Nevermind or never mentioned or never received even a sorry for the inconvience this has caused. We...
Loud but works
I purchased this air purifier when my infant son began having serious outdoor allergies. I found a huge improvement in him after using this purifier in his room and through out our small apartment at the time. It is pretty loud (even the lowest setting is pretty loud) But I have had no problems with the loudness since it is in his room only and works great as "white noise" for children. It also works great to drown out outside noise from his bedroom at night time. The light is very bright, so I've covered it with tape from time to time.

Defective Unit
I had this unit in black matte installed by a licensed plumber at the beginning of April (2010). Within 4 weeks the water coming out of the faucet was foamy and had a bad chemical smell. It got better the longer the water ran. But each time the tap was turned on it happened again. We stopped drinking the water from the faucet and called Kohler. They were very courteous, but seemed unaware of any such problem. The technician thought it might be a faulty hose, so they sent a free hose replacement kit to us about 2 weeks later. We installed the replacement hose, but the problem persisted. I spoke to Kohler again, and this time they seemed very aware of the problem and said they were going to send us a complete new fixture. They were not willing to discuss the source of the problem, except to say they were well aware of it and that the new faucet was "re-manufactured" and would solve the problem. Let's hope so. Otherwise, the fixture is great looking and performs well - just...
Excellent faucet
I purchased this faucet as a replacement for an existing one with a separate sprayer. I wanted to put in a water filter system and needed the sprayer hole. This was very easy to install and came with everything we needed. The quality is much better than the original. I was a bit worried about how the integrated sprayer would retract back into the faucet, but it does so easily and stays put. I did have a slight drip from the spray holes when I was on the regular water stream, but realized that I wasn't pushing the flip switch hard enough. Now there's no drip. I highly recommend this product.
Great faucet!
We bought this faucet in vibrant stainless to replace an 8yr. old Moen pullout faucet that was rusting and leaking badly about 1 month ago and have been very happy with the Kohler. Installation was very easy, well designed and took only 2 hours, compared to the effort required to remove the old faucet.I've only been using the faucet for a few weeks but it has been working well. I like the way the setting of the control that switches between "normal" and spray operation stays in the setting you left it in, so you can spray using very little water. The downside is the faucet can splatter a bit in spray mode due to the high arch of the faucet, so I try to leave it in "normal" mode.We also bought the matching accessories with this faucet, K-1895 soap dispenser and K-9111 air gap cover, and love the overall look! Since all 4 sink holes are filled (2 for the faucet, 1 for dispenser and 1 for the air gap), you don't require a sink hole cover.

Health-Pro Plus Air Purifier Review

Source: Air Purifiers Consumer Reports

I researched air purifiers for about a week before buying two IQAir units, one with the odor filter (Pro-Plus), and one without (Pro) to help with allergies and asthma symptoms that my family suffers from. The unpacked units were sparkling new and clean, with an inspection page that detailed the performance actual performance for my unit at each of the five individual speeds. These are sturdy units that are somewhat heavy, but come with a convenient handle recessed on the top, as well caster wheels (which are optional to install) to roll the unit if you need to move it periodically. After 1 month of use, this IQAir unit earns my highest recommendation. The manual recommends clearance of at least 12 inches on all sides for optimal performance, so keep this...
