Holiday Gift Guide 2010: Oreck XL® ProShield Plus Air Purifier (Review & Giveaway)


 
 A Little Bit About the Oreck XL® ProShield Plus Air Purifier
The EPA says indoor air may be 5 times more polluted than the air outside, and most of us spend approximately 90% of our time indoors. If you have weather-tight doors and windows, pets, or smoke, you could be adding to the problem. That’s why you need the whisper-quiet1 ProShield Plus Air Purifier - the easy, portable, proactive way to help clean the air in your home. It circulates the air, filters out allergens, dirt, and other airborne irritants, captures and kills viruses and germs, and breaks down odors and volatile organic compounds such as chemical fumes and aerosol vapors - with the Helios Shield permanent odor absorber.
Every time you close your front door, you’re sealing yourself in with airborne bacteria, dust, germs, and allergens. Some you can smell. Most you can’t.

Contemporary styling. Advanced engineering. Compact design. Complete portability.

Removes 99% of airborne particulates
In independent testing, the Oreck ProShield Plus removed 99% of airborne particulates in an average size room in less than one hour. The secret to the Oreck ProShield Plus’s powerful performance is Oreck’s exclusive “capture and kill” filtration system. As the air circulates through it, Oreck’s patented Truman Cell electronically charges dust, allergens, and germs and pulls them out of the air like a magnet. Then Oreck’s innovation, the revolutionary Helios Shield reduces odors as it circulates the air through its system.

Whisper-quiet1, easy to use, and environmentally friendly.
The ProShield Plus features easy-to-use controls and offers three different speed settings – high for maximum cleaning, medium for normal use, and silence for quietest operation. A handy remote control allows you to turn the power on or off, and adjust the odor control feature, motor speed, and night light – all from across the room. The Truman Cell™ permanent filter never needs to be replaced – which saves you money and reduces waste. Other air purifiers rely on expensive HEPA filters that have to be replaced and can eventually end up in a landfill. With the ProShield Plus, you simply rinse clean the filter, let dry, and re-insert.
 
Our Experience
We have a house full of Allergy sufferers. Whether it be the Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter......we always seem to be battling Allergy symptoms of some sort! Our home should be our safe haven however air born dust and other nuisances lurk despite my daily cleaning efforts. It really was quite frustrating.

A thing of the past now that we have the Oreck XL ProShield Plus Air Purifier! This sleek machine has kept the peace in our house despite the falling leaves (this season normally breeds breathing issues for all of us). Very easy to set up; I had the Oreck XL ProShield out of the box and operating within a matter of minutes (An. I was extremely surprised by the whisper quiet operation; just a few days later I was thoroughly impressed to see the cell (for cleaning purposes it simply rinses with plain water) loaded with dust. UGH! Was that really what we were all breathing in (and imagine what was landing on and lurking on the furniture!)?

I have placed the Oreck XL ProShield Plus in the room that we all use the most; the family room. Though now that we have experienced the greatness of this air purifier, we will be purchasing additional ProShield Air Purifiers for our bedrooms and office. The Oreck XL ProShield Plus Air Purifier really does cleanse the air. Making for a more enjoyable home environment. Give the gift of Clean Air this Holiday Season! The Oreck XL ProShield Plus Air Purifier would make an EXCELLENT Holiday Gift! As always, Oreck is a brand we can trust, as they stand behind all of their products with their Risk-Free Guarentee.
