Ridgid WD1450 14-Gallon 6-Horsepower Wet/Dry Vacuum Review

Ridgid WD1450 14-Gallon 6-Horsepower Wet/Dry Vacuum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This vac hits just about every mark right on the nose for me.
PROS:
It has a ton of suction power (as long as you keep the filter relatively clean).
It has a large diameter hose that can suck up large chunks.
Well thought-out attachments. I didn't think I would, but I've used all of them for different applications, and found all to be very useful.
It is very quiet for how powerful it is.
Great carrying handle, and easy to use snap-locks to take the lid off and put it back on.
Long cord, long hose, quite portable.
Great casters, very stable.
CONS:
Just one, but it's nasty: The output blower blows with incredible force on the opposite side of the suction input. Some form of this is to be expected to a certain extent, as the air that is sucked in has to be pushed back out in some way with equal force; I've just seen other designs that manage this much better. This design pushes with equal force out of a hole equal in diameter to the input hole, horizontally out the opposite side. Like I said, the force is great. It is like a leaf-blower. This design is supposedly set up this way so that one could hook the hose up to the output hole and do things like blow leaves... but if you're not blowing leaves, you blow dust, dirt, debris, and other unwanted things out into the air to fly off and settle somewhere else. A nightmare for, say, cleaning up drywall dust after hanging, taping and sanding drywall -- by turning on the vac, you are effectively distributing all the dust on the output side out into the rest of the house.
Don't get me wrong; the suction is amazing, and what you suck up is sufficiently filtered and deposited into the base... It's just that anything that happens to be on the wrong side of the vac will be lifted up off the ground and spread off into the distance. The only way I've found to avoid this is to aim the output hole out a door and be mindful not to tug the vac in too far while cleaning. Seems like a serious nuisance to me.
Are most shop vacs designed this way? I guess I've only seen one other brand's design, which came out the top and somehow spread the "impedance" of the air so that it exited gently out of a vent that ran 360 degrees around the motor, instead of being concentrated into a tight, forceful air jet shooting out of one side.
Overall I really like the vac. It's the most powerful of any I've ever used and has really worked well for all the things I've used it for. I just have to pay close attention to where that exit port is and make sure it won't cause any problems.

Holmes HEPA Type Air Purifier Review

Holmes HEPA Type Air Purifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Don't buy Holmes® HEPA type Tower Air Purifier - HAP422B-U. The only virtues are superficial: the towers look elegant and take up little space. And OK in the summer it acts as a cooling fan. I don't know that it does any more than a fan.
However it came with little instructions, with no pictures, diagrams or any real explanations. Right now I am scouring the net for an 800 number. The filter is almost impossible to change. The door has to be forced open to near breaking; and while you're lining it up to close it back, three of the items keep slipping out of place. Putting it on the floor to do this doesn't help because it rolls around. I'm still not sure the door is completely shut.
I can't find any numbers to call, no online instructions, and I can't get the red change filter light to turn off now that I've changed the filter. The ion light is cool but there's no instructions as to when and how to use it.
The production must have been outsourced to China, and no translaters were hired.

The description says "Genuine Honeywell Part." It is not.

The filter being sold here has a white base and top, and white mesh on the sides. It smells bad, too, like adhesive.
The filter being sold here, according to the information contained in the box is actually an RPS product, Model E295.

Shop-Vac 9034000 Gore CleanStream Replacement Cartridge Filter Review

Shop-Vac 9034000 Gore CleanStream Replacement Cartridge Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'd suggest the cheaper, standard dry-only HEPA filter in place of this one, unless you occasionally suck up damp stuff or small amounts of liquid. This filter is not a good choice for wet applications. I also find that this filter is no easier to clean than any other reuseable cartridge filter. It's rinseable but that sounds better than it works in practice.
If you are faced with sucking up gallons of liquid, this filter doesn't work well. Unless the liquid is very clean, the filter clogs every few minutes. If I'm picking up a lot of liquid, I swap the good ol' foam sleeve back on.
This filter does work well for dry pickup. No more dusty exhaust, a huge improvement over the standard disc filters. However, it's no better than the standard HEPA filter in this regard.
Someone once suggested using an old-fashioned disc filter over the HEPA filter if you use it as a dust collector in a wood shop. I find this to be a very good combination. The disc filter takes out the bigger particles of sawdust, leaving the HEPA to do what it does best -- filter the very fine stuff. Otherwise, you will find yourself cleaning the HEPA a lot. Maybe you lose some suction with the two filters in place, but I really haven't noticed. The disc / HEPA combo would probably be nice for drywall debris and other stuff that has both big chuncks and fine dust.

High Performance FilterContains 1 Filter Lasts up to 3 Months 2200 Performance RatingFiltrete® Elite Allergen Reduction filters provide an easy way to help reduce airborne allergens in your home. They capture large airborne particles from the air that passes through them, including dust, pollen, and mold spores. They also trap microscopic allergens, such as pet dander, smoke, smog, and particles that can carry bacteria, viruses and odors.The difference is in the Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR) and Air Flow Balance. How We Measure Filtrete Filter Performance: Filtrete air cleaning filters are electrostatically charged to attract and capture particles from the air that passes through the filter. Each Filtrete filter has a Microparticle Performance Rating (MPR). This rating measures a filter's ability to capture particles between 0.3 and 1.0 microns. The higher the MPR, the more efficient the filter is at capturing these tiny particles.How Clean is Your Indoor Air and Water? Many people would be surprised to learn that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says that indoor air can be two to five times worse than the air outside. In fact, the EPA identifies indoor air contamination as one of the top five environmental risks to public health.Air and water quality can vary according to a number of factors. For example, today's energy-efficient homes provide better insulation than ever before, but often at the expense of air exchange. As a result, moisture may build up, creating a breeding ground for things like bacteria, fungi, and mold. And even the best municipal water systems can fail to remove chlorine taste and odor, as well as sediment and parasitic cysts in drinking water. Filtrete™ Home Filtration Products empower you to help improve your indoor air and water quality. We are making a difference in maintaining healthier home environments.

Honeywell Enviracaire HEPA Air Purifier, Model 50250 1 ea Review

Honeywell Enviracaire HEPA Air Purifier, Model 50250 1 ea
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I will echo all of the positive reviews seen here and add some extra information.
Reading the various reviews, people may be worried if they are finding the right model in the stores, and if the model inside has the lifetime HEPA filter or not. The box may say permanent or it may say something else, with a sticker that says "permanent filter inside". This is all you need to know. I don't think it's even possible to find inventory that still contains the replaceable filter.
As a torture test, we put our unit in the kitchen when we roasted greasy chickens over the 2008 holidays. This usually stinks out our apartment for a week, and it still did. It was too much greasy smoke for the Honeywell. Worse yet, after moving the unit back to the office, there was a roast chicken scent for another 5 or 6 days. I was about to replace the one month-old carbon pre-filter, but then it finally wore off and now the unit seems as fresh as new.
But roast chickens aside, the difference in air quality in the office and bedroom (we move this unit around daily from home to office) is very impressive. Dust is down, chemical odors are gone, (I sell glue and solvents), and the computers are staying clean. (When we had an ionic breeze, the electronics would attract more dirt, and the air would be dusty, now the air is clean and so is the equipment).
I did so much research before buying this and I am very happy I chose this unit. I run it on low for about 16 hours a day, occasionally on high after making the bed in the morning, and only turn it off at night (for silence).
I'm considering getting a second one, but then its so easy to move...
___________
Update: March 11th 2009, used every day since December 11th (3 months) and still working perfectly and very effective, without any filter change or vacuuming. The only odd thing is that the filter indicator lights seem unchanged so maybe they don't work. I don't know, but I will try to wait another three months before changing the pre-filter and vacuuming the permanent HEPA filter.

HolmesĀ® HAP242-UC HEPA-type Desktop Air Purifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've owned mine for about 5 years, and I love it. I was surprised to see so many negative comments from other reviewers. If I may add my two cents to the discussion:
* This machine works great as an air purifier for small/medium bedrooms. It is designed to remove dust and other allergens from the air, and it does so quite well in my opinion. It's not meant to clean the air in the whole house. It's not meant to remove strong odors like stinky pets, dirty diapers, etc. That's what an odor eliminator is for. (I use a Hamilton Beach 04271R TrueAir Plug-Mount Odor Eliminator next to the litter box, and I can't complain.) An odor eliminator contains a carbon filter than neutralizes bad smells. A HEPA air purifier contains a filter of thickly folded fibrous paper that strains tiny particles out of the air. The two devices have completely different purposes and methods.
* Yes, you do have to replace the filter periodically. I run my unit continuously on the low setting and have to replace the filter about once a year. Target usually sells them in two-packs or three-packs for a good price.
* It needs to be wiped down with a damp cloth every couple of weeks because the outer casing gathers dust and lint. In my experience it does NOT, as other users have commented, get filthy. I supposed it might if you never cleaned it. The fact that it attracts dust means it's working.
* It's almost silent on the low setting. Medium is audible but not intrusive. The high setting is almost as loud as a dust buster. I've found the low setting to be sufficient for small bedrooms.
I hope this helps.

I am quite surprised by the fact that I was shipped ONE filter. The item description lead me to believe that this item was in a 3-pack. (Perhaps when it said Item Package Quantity: 3) So after the initial shock of realizing that my $60 went to purchase ONE filter instead of THREE I was quite annoyed.
The only reason I purchased this was because I thought it was a great price, it turns out it absolutely wasn't. Now, aside from that the filter is fine and as described. I chose not to return it because I didn't want to waste the money on shipping, and my old filter was getting quite dirty.
The filter is a hunter brand replacement, not a knock-off brand. (which at this point I would've preferred actually at the $60 price)
If you are reading this and do not see the "Item Package Quantity: 3" on the page and are wondering what in the world I am talking about then just know that the item description was probably fixed.

Miele Style G/N HyClean Vacuum Cleaner Bags: 4 Bags + 1 Super Air Clean Filter + 1 PreMotor Filter Review

Miele Style G/N HyClean Vacuum Cleaner Bags: 4 Bags + 1 Super Air Clean Filter + 1 PreMotor Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently purchased a Miele Capricorn, and they use the style G/N bags.
I'm quite impressed with the Miele bags. I'm used to having to deal with paper vacuum bags, the kind that have a cardboard flange which has to be pushed onto a stem or hose in the bag compartment: the kind of bag that always seems to have dirt sifting out of it when it's time to install a fresh bag.
It's a pleasure to use Miele vacuum bags. They're made of a nonwoven fabric which is lined with aluminum foiled plastic, and they have a plastic flange that neatly snaps into a holder. It's impossible to install them incorrectly because of some thoughtfully-designed arrow guides. Once the bag is snapped into place and the door of the bag compartment is lowered, the vacuum hose automatically inserts into the Miele vacuum bag.
When it's time to change the bag, all I have to do is hold the bag by two little tabs at the top of the flange, and lift it up out of the holder. A plastic tab rolls down over the opening in the bag, automatically sealing the bag for disposal.
Someone put a lot of thought into the design of these bags and it shows!

Cons:
-fully effective for rooms 110 square feet or smaller
-noise level (at low it is slightly noticable, on medium you have to turn up the tv a few notches, on high it sounds like a fan or air conditioner on full blast)
For the price, it does a terrific job in smaller rooms with the only drawback being the noise (which on low is very bearable). I leave it on high all day while I'm at work, switch to medium in the evening and low at night and it does the trick.
