Does this work on apartment neighbor cooking odors that seep into your house? Or just in-your-own-house cooking odors?

I've been using OZIUM for several years now. It's a VERY VERY powerful odor eliminator. Even though I've never used it for what you're about to use, I'm very confident by saying a very strong "YES". Because if I had that issue,mi wouldn't have hesitated to use OZIUM. Good luck.

The IQ Air Multi Gas does not emit any odor. However, it also has not been effective at removing perfumes,or paint fumes in my apartment. I have tried to use it on numerous substances that have bothered me and it has been useless. I have one IQ Multi Gas in my bedroom and one in my living room which is at the other end of my apartment. My apartment is about 900 square feet.It is effective at removing dust, pet hair etc.To be honest the air purifier has been a real disappointment.

Yes. I used it in the garage which is well ventalated, but I detect no odor from it at all. Give it a few day to a week.

I have it in my cats room by their litter box. I don't think it will reduce cooking smells... I always just turn on the kitchen fan and or open a window depending on what I'm cooking. The filter doesn't seem strong enough to me to pull the cooking odor out the air.

I think it worked for the litter box smell. Even on the lowest setting it filled my 2000 sq ft house with "metallic ozone smell"This odor was extremely annoying!

I've put a few drops in a glass dish (per instructions) to help dissipate some mildewy odors under a sink. The product has a mild minty, maybe a little medicinal, smell that isn't overwhelming and I can't really smell it when not in the area of the dish. I find it stops working when it has evaporated. It works okay, but I don't think it would work in a larger open area, like a whole room. And it doesn't "eliminate" any odor that is continual. I didn't find it was as successful as some of the reviews stated. I've used the Febreeze Set and Refresh little containers with similar results. Nothing I've found totally gets rid of continual odors.

I only smell the fishy odor when I tested the cubes in a relatively enclosed space. Outside the smell soon dissipates. A second source of odor can be your hands. Touching the cubes with bear hands leaves odor on your hands, which does linger and originally I thought it was coming from the burning cubes. After washing my hands, the odor disappears. The cubes don't work quite as well as I hoped, especially if there is even the slightest breeze. It frequently takes two cubes to get 16 oz of water to boil in a light breeze outdoors. Indoors, in calm air, 16 oz of water will boil with one cube.

Yes it does. At least it did for me. Open it up. Air it out in an open area. Another tip when I encounter smells is a small bowl of white vinegar placed nearby overnight. Let me know how it goes!

it will not recirculate odorless air. it only has a grease filter but I found out that it's best not to even use it since it fills the microwave insides with grease and can cause it to short out. no such thing as a microwave oven that can recirculate odorless air. if you want to eliminate some of the odor, you must have an external vent pipe that sents the fumes OUTSIDE!

I have used it in my kitchen for frozen fish and shrimp. There is some oder in the kitchen, but not throughout the house.

There was an immediate odor on application but I live in a single one bedroom apartment and did a coffee table and end table right in the living room with just the immediate living room window open and a bedroom window open for a cross breeze and I did not feel overwhelmed by fumes or anything. It was surprising better than I was expecting, (I was expecting something that burned my eyes or nose like bleach) and the scent did not linger for days after. Just vent the place and I think you would be just fine.

I haven't however I will be moving in a couple of months, and my new place will have induction.However, unless you want your home smelling like that for about a month, you should stick to outdoors for this. I thought my apartment would smell like hickory forever. I would love it if my apartment did, but I don't think the landlords would.

I dont live in an apartment building. However, I dont believe it makes any difference. The product works by emitting some sort of sound that is not audible to humans. It was very effective in my kitchen, keeping mice away and now, I have them plugged into other rooms where mice were less of a problem. Have not seen any indication of mice there. We unplug it at times when our cat is roaming around. Also, it makes a slight clicking noise. Using it at night has been effective for us.

This is a great unit, however, I used it indoors the first time, and my apartment smelt like outdoor cooking for 2 months after! Now I use it on my BBQ outside. To use I place the wood chip in the bottom, then wrap the drip tray in foil(easier to clean up), place the tray that holds your meat, then your meat(seasonings, rubs, sauces), then the cover. Keep the temp. around 250C and let it cook for however long you need too.It is a great little unit, I would have no problem buying another one if I was staying in my apartment. Mone has never peeled on the outside as the other commenters has, but just about everything will turn dark after repeated use. 5 out of 5 for this unit, just don't use it indoors!

Oh, yes, definitely it is effective for keeping odors in. Only thing I can think of is when we forgot to take the garbage out and had some raw garbage and it was completely full to the top. I could smell it as soon as I walked in the kitchen.

Yes it does reduce odors from other rooms here that drift into my room, such as cologne, plug-in air fresheners, aerosol air fresheners, kitchen odors. Even using the washable pre-filter instead of the charcoal one works, I believe the ionization helps to filter out odors.

I just rinse it out weekly with a soap and water, works fine for me. I haven't had an issue with odor
