Germ Guardian GG1100W 7” Pluggable Small Air Purifier, Small Room Wall Air Sanitizer, Freshens Air, UV-C Light Kills Germs, Reduces Odors from Pets, Cooking, Mold, GermGuardian, 1-Yr Wty (White)

I made a mistake and thought this “air purifier” was a plug-in ozone machine; it is not–it popped up when I searched for ozone machines. I have rented ozone machines in the past and they are amazing for removing odors (e.g. cat urine). An effective ozone machine leaves the room smelling a bit like pool chlorine. I searched for an ozone machine online and among the results was this, “air purifier.” It never claimed to be an ozone machine, but I thought it was so it was my fault entirely. It was a great price and I even bought two. I was excited to receive them, plug them in, and smell the results. No results. That’s when I figured out this item is really just a small, plug-in fan. The fan (about the size of a laptop fan) pulls in air, runs the air over a supposed UV light, and exhausts the purported clean air. As far as I can tell, it’s a fan with a blue light inside, nothing more. It doesn’t make the room smell better, it doesn’t get rid of smells, and is as effective as my iMac fan in improving air quality. Again, my mistake for buying it (actually buying two), but I would not buy it again. I guess you could say, the product…stinks.
