A good, solid air filter that lasts a long time
By PT Cruiser
I bought the Austin Healthmate Jr. about 2 years ago for a dusty area and have been happy with it. The three things I like best about it are that you don't have to buy filters very often because you can vacuum the outside of the filter and that it's relatively quiet. The other thing is that it takes air in on all four sides and blows the filtered air out through the top area. It seems to do a good job of filtering the air. It's more energy efficient than air purifiers I've used in the past and it has 3 speeds which is nice.If you use it in really dusty conditions like mine, you can replace the pre-filter more often than the big filter. I've found this type of material that I could cut to fit at a local hardware store. You get a pre-filter with it. You have to take it apart to replace the pre-filter and filters, but it isn't difficult. You can turn off the machine and vacuum it from the outside and that seems to help the filters last longer. Of course, you'll want to use a vacuum cleaner with a hepa filter or you defeat the purpose. I replace mine about once a year, but I think the average person could go much longer.The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I don't really have any way of measuring how good of a job it really does, only that it seems to do a good job in terms of allergies, odors, etc. There are so many air filters out there and so many claims, that it's hard to sort them out. But if I had to buy a filter for another room, I would probably buy this brand again.

Best air filter ever
By P. Radloff
We've used the Austin Air Healthmate Jr. for over six years. The unit is quiet and dependable. Austin Air recommends changing the filter at least every five years. We purchased our replacement filter from Amazon at a very reasonable price, which was much less expensive than our local allergy store.

Best Air Filter on the Market!
By Ruth B. Kaplan
I bought three Austin Air Healthmates almost a decade ago, to help deal with my many inhalant allergies. Two Jr models and one full sized one. I put the full sized one in the living room where I exercise and watch TV, one in the bedroom, and one in my home office. When I remodeled a garage for a home office, installing paneling, vinyl flooring, dropped ceiling, and more, I put the Healthmate Jr in the room while finishing construction was still underway. I never walked in and smelled the classic "plastic" smells that are quite common with new vinyl flooring, plastic coated paneling, or polystyrene ceiling tiles. I have seen my allergy symptoms decrease, especially when I stay indoors during peak pollen days. I also don't have half the dust my friends have in their houses. I recommend the Healthmate for anyone with hay fever or allergies, and especially for those who work at home or for retired folks. The filters only have to be replaced every five years, and cost less than the cheap air filter machines with filters that have to be replaced monthly.
