They work quite well, but they are notorious for having improperly lubricated fan shaft bearings. I lubricated mine with Cooper gear grease #45-9850.
I own 2 orecks that run at all times in my home. It is absolutley amazing what kind of dirt/lint/filth that comes out of the re-usable washable t-cell. You cant deny that the oreck doesnt work as advertised because Ive seen the grime that comes out of it after cleaning. My son had severe allergies,which since running the oreck, hes had hardly a problem at all. Not too mention I barely see any dust in the house, and we all rarely ever even get sick with colds anymore. I love it.
you defended yourself greatly. i think the review was great. you save me $500 dollars
I have two Oric pro plus..I paid $399 off tv and got second one half price…because they do not have any fine filter they do not work as well as ones with heppa filters…easy to prove..I did it!…creat dust in front of your Oric shake out a floor mat or what ever you have dusty..the dust will go in oric and come right out the rear vents just as dusty..do the same with a cheap walmart one with a filter and no dust comes back out..however you will need a new $30 filter!..
Excellent video!
Unless you could get them on Cr. List for $100.00 or so?
Don’t even think a bout buying it. i have one and it’s noisy and keeps making zapps noise like the video said just imagine u are sleep and in the middle of the night a loud zapping noise , and by the way my apartment is very clean and i don’t have any animals.
excellent video every thing u said is true, and sometime it takes more than two days for the truman cell to get dry .
Thanks for the details and save me from those insane time and frastration. I suppose I am better off buy a honeywell or bionaire from hardware store. cheaper.
Bought mine for $300 CA at Costco. I’m happy with it so far. Used it for two months on medium speed 24/7 before it started sparking a lot and needed cleaning. I like the way it makes the air smell when the ionizer is on. Kinda like after a rain storm.
I have 4 Oreck Pro Shield Plus purifiers in my home and absolutely love them. We have 2 small children and constantly battled sinus infections and colds. Have not had either since we started using them. Very easy to clean (every 30 to 45 days) and they run silently. I highly recommend them.
I bought an ionic breeze tower and it has the same problems just sucks at purifying the air more and doesn’t get rid of odors at all. I’d rather have an oreck that zaps but does its job than an ionic breeze that zaps and doesn’t do anything. Probably gonna pick up the Oreck and try it out
go to the paint store and get some dust masks for $2, then re wash them.
You just saved thousands if you consider the time value of money. Buying things off tv is for dumb people who dont know what the term “after tax dollars means”
Have an older Oreck works fine. Bought a new cell, its been running for a week no poping, big difference in my room with the Oreck.
been running my oreck xl pro for a month, no popping.
Isnt the ‘truman cell’ just a fancy name for a HEPA filter?! considering they do the same thing?!
I got mine at a yard sale in the box for $20! It only popped once when I first turned it on, and once when I blew smoke into it, but that was a dumb idea
. I think it works great so far. The high fan setting is pretty loud though. Other than that, no complaints!
more information about air purifier..
@Xaves511 yo wuts good wit it Xaves wut it do foo? how u been in da scene cracka jack slim?
well i have the sharper image hybrid GP, i think that i works great but, does this air purifier needs to be in a well ventilated area, because of the ozone emissions? o i can put it in a room without windows or something like that?
this looks like just a square version of the ionic breeeze. The ionic breeze is really easy to clean out
@lindoflorida your so right
I have two Oreck xl in my home….LOVE THEM!!!
I have never had a zap or any noises…I clean the screen every two months or so. I guess I was one of the lucky ones that got the ones checked by quality control …lol.
Also, I don’t have animals.
Thanks. I need reviews like this.
Have you reviewed other models other than this and the Sharper Image Hybrid?
I need one that can possibly kill mold spores.
i bought the Oreck XL purifier “refurbished” for $230 and used it a short time. It started to zap and i brought it to a new Oreck store a year later, after thinking i was frauded. They cleaned the Truman filter and has since worked great without the zapping noise. Havent cleaned it yet because it hasnt zapped yet.
there’s also a smaller Holmes $60 air purifier sold at Wal Marts (they have expensive filters, though)
