How does this model compare to the larger Hamilton Beach TrueAir Compact Pet Air Purifier model for removing litter box odors?

I'm not sure as I've only had the plug in smaller version. But there is a noticeable difference when I use the filter as oppose to not using it

I don't think it works very well at all. It is very noisy. Mine is plugged in just about in the littet box. It does not do very well with these odors.

Pet air is much better. No contest. But this one plugs right into the wall, so that's the appeal here. This one is a pretty weak air filter.

NO, do NOT buy this one!!! Unless you have a very small living space without any carpet. I also have asthma and am very dissatisfied with this vacuum. Don't buy this one, you'll be sorry.

I've tried both. Worlds Best clumps better and a bit better with odor control. I haven't tried the scented versions of Worlds Best yet. I've noticed that there's less dust/tracking around the house too.

The Cloud works ok with most odors. But when it comes to pet odors the only purifier that will work for pet odors would be the Summit. The reason is that unit has ozone and ozone will break down the urine odor and penetrate in to carpet and soft materials. But if there is a lot of urine in the carpet and pad you will need to have the carpet steam cleaned to remove a lot of the urine. There will be some in the pad but the purifier put in the room with the worst odor will keep the odor from migrating in to other spaces.

The multiple-stage filtering system, the life of the motor, the amount of air the purifier can move and filter at once, the noise level. There are many reasons this purifier costs more initially than Miami of the others available here. As someone who needs a purifier in each room for a child with severe medical complications, I've done the searching, I've purchased many, many inferior air purifiers, and without a doubt, the Alen Breathesmart is far and away the most effective. I also have two RabbitAirs for the bedrooms because of their quality, size and noise level, but I will never go back to, or reccomend any lesser air purifier. I suggest looking at consumer reports and getting more detailed input, but the money you spend on a high quality filter makes it more than worth the investment in its longevity and consistently clean air.

I have had both models & there is no odor. We use it at out salon & have even put in a bottle of neutralizer wrapped in a towel & there's no smell. Clients love it!

As long as you change the carbon filters at regular intervals yes. The dust filter itself does nothing for odors. It's all in the carbon. Hamilton Beach sells expensive carbon pads, but if you do an Amazon search for carbon air filters, cut to fit, you can find them much cheaper. For like $6 I got months worth of the filters, all I had to do was cut them to size as they come in one large sheet. Very worth it there as it saves a lot of money.

I have this purifier and I have two dogs and two cats. It is an excellent choice. Also have a Blue air in another part of the house that works wonders. I recommend both very highly.

My experience with the Litter Maid Elite has not been good. My old one worked really well, but this one does such a poor job that I ended up having to clean out the litter box as much as a non-automatic one. I found a couple of other self-cleaning ones on Amazon, but haven't ordered one yet. I'm sorry I couldn't recommend a specific one, but maybe someone else can. I hope you find one soon.

I've used both and they clean equally well, in my opinion. However, the Pet Plus seems to have more deodorizer- a stronger scent, which I liked.

The only other difference ( electronic vs. manual controls) is that this particular model (AC5250PT) comes with the PetPure Treatment Filter. The filter still is a True HEPA filter (99.97% capture rate down to .3 microns in size) but also has been treated with a fungistatic agent that kills odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew. If you have pets this is a helpful feature.

I've had mine for a year now . It runs continuously in my garage for my cats. I keep their litter boxes out there.I really love this thing. I did buy the bigger dog version because I wanted them to have plenty of room.I would definitely buy another one. So far, this one is still going strong.

Ok, so I love this one. It is wayyyy bigger than the litter genie. However, the lucky champ bags are bio-degradable. Which means it is not good for smells. I buy odor trapping trashbags and they can be used in the Lucky Champ. And that has been awesome.

How is this product vs Airfree Onix 3000 Ozone Free Home Air Purifier. I want something that will work and not have to really replace filters. mainly need it for the pet hair and dust in the rooms.

The best I can give is that I ran the ozone maker setting on high in a very large closed bedroom for about 4 hours and the smell of ozone was very strong when we walked in to open the windows and the construction odors were pretty much gone, which is why we bought the machine. I've also run the air purifier which also does a nice job. For the money I think it does what it's supposed to do, it's straight forward and well made.

I went to Honeywell, WalMart and Amazon and searched all of them. I have a small one and wanted another like it for another room, but they no longer made it, so I opt for a little bigger one which I am glad I did. Watch they are on sale quite frequently. I think I paid $129.00 or so for the bigger one and it is wonderful. Depends what you want it for. They both have changeable filters on them and a 5 year HEPA filter.
