Vicks Nursery TableTop Air Purifier Review

THIS IS MADE BY KAZ USA.Interesting they rarely brand their items with their own name.OVER A YR AND A HALF AGO, they bought SLANT FIN PURI-CLEAR 55 business, the perfect air purifier for a nursery.SO FAR, THEY REFUSE TO MAKE FILTERS.GUESS THEY EXPECT FOLKS TO CAVE and buy this thing instead. DON'T DO IT. The air purifier ability is sub-par.With the SLANT FIN- the 3M Filtrete dual pre filter did an EXCELLENT JOB.With this it just didn't work as well and with this thing there is a "washable" filter.COME ON.The footprint is also larger and the unit is more noisy.

IF KAZ had any sense they would continue to make the superior product they bought from SLANT FIN!But wait, this is KAZ, they like to buy BRANDS and then cheapen them. FOLKS think they are buying quality because the brand has such a good reputation but hold on, the brand is just a badge, the actual product is KAZ.

Out of desperation (since KAZ refuses to make filters for the Slant Fin I have used for years with total satisfaction) I found a store that sold their 'comparable' unit, figured I should at least see WHY KAZ refuses to make the SLANT FIN! The VICKS purifier won't be coming to my home!My advice - stay away from anything KAZ'd.

Wish I had the money to buy the rights to the SLANT FIN and get that CHINESE manufacturer making filters! One last note: KAZ marketing campaign for this unit neglects to inform that ionizers should be turned off in a nursery -personally I think they are a BAD IDEA ALL TOGETHER, they create ozone and can harm us.Not a great idea for a nursery at all or anyone at any age with breathing issues or anyone who wishes to stay clear of developing breathing issues.The Slant Fin had lights in the face plate so one could easily know the ionizer was OFF. This thing has some dial on the top of it. Lastly, the SLANT FIN had a compartment to accept a fragrance pouch, a wonderful idea, even if used only ocassionally.This product doesn't have that feature. This Vicks unit costs virtually the same as the SLANT FIN did. VALUE? - I think NOT.
