Germ Guardian GG1100W 7” Pluggable Small Air Purifier, Small Room Wall Air Sanitizer, Freshens Air, UV-C Light Kills Germs, Reduces Odors from Pets, Cooking, Mold, GermGuardian, 1-Yr Wty (White)

The media could not be loaded. Works great to abate smell of litter boxes in my laundry room. I had to plug it up at counter height and the boxes are on the floor so I wasn't sure what to expect but it does a great job. Smells gone. I the noise is minimal, I made a video so you can hear it, just like a slight white noise. It is pretty big, larger than an outlet but looks nice and modern and the light is nice. I thought when I opened it there would be some sort of set up but it's super easy - literally just plug in and walk away, then give it a day or so to work it's magic and from then on, clean and sanitized air for all! When I researched, there were really two general options - a sanitizer like this or an ionizer. Seems like the ionizer isn't as safe so I went with this and so far so good after a few weeks of continual use!

I also have the original style, the gg1000, which is cylindrical shape. I love my original & thought I'd try this newer style model also. I bought 1st 1 for litter box odors & have been thrilled w/ it. I was scooping everything from litter immediately when home & still smelled odor which lead me to getting my 1st 1. It totally did the trick & has saved my sanity.I was finally able to get litter box out of the rm it was in originally & move it elsewhere (rmmate issues) & found myself not wanting to part w/ my germ guardian in that rm since it helps clean air & I'm often plagued w/ other ppl's cooking odors too. Doesn't clear those as quickly but to it's defense, it's a big job w/ these ppl. Can't imagine what it'd b like w/o it.So I ordered this rectangular style 1 for new litter box location & it's doing it's job. I Don't mind the white noise. I will say that this 1 did give off a plastic type odor for the 1st 24 hrs at least which my original didn't do. It did disappear after that time & has been fine since.The only design flaw I noticed w/ new 1 is it doesn't have a rotating plug like my gg1000 does which allowed it to stay upright no matter which way plug is & i really liked that option since I use mine in a surge protector power strip the long way. I was going to put new 1 in original rm & 1st 1 in rm w/ cat litter box but due to lack of rotating plug, I had to put new 1 w/ litter box cuz it just wouldn't work w/ my pwr strip set up.I do like the usb port for charging devices altho it's not as convenient in the other rm as it would've been where i wanted it, so that feature isn't as beneficial to me as it could've been. Even using unit upside down wouldn't have worked well w/ my set up. It's still a good item tho & really does work miracles w/ litter odors. I'd absolutely recommend either model. The light does look cool on new model also. It's a cooler looking unit, it just would've been even better w/ rotating plug. Hope this helps. Great product & great company. Do ck airways of unit for dust tho & keep them clear to keep it running properly.I have recommended to friends & family who also like theirs. 1 was for someone w/ an elderly mother who occasionally had incontinence issues her rm smelled. It has helped considerably w/ odors for them. The other uses to help w/ cigarette smoke in 1 closed off rm. It helps there too, better than w/ just their air filter going like b4.

I was a bit turned off at first when I discovered that this product came in one of those clear hard plastic that you will need heavy duty scissors to cut into. It always scares me in opening products in those containers as I know first hand how bloody it can get! Amazon frustration free please! Gosh, I was a bit turned off for the first 15 minutes when I opened it as it did have that cheap plastic smell when you plug it in. However, upon letting it warm up it definitely sanitized the room very well. You will notice the results in a smaller space. If you really want to see how well it works at deodorizing a room, I recommend leaving the room you plugged the product in and coming back after a few minutes. You will discover the room smelling fresh upon returning!Describing the freshness is a bit difficult, and it is not a placebo effect at all too! My friend came to my apartment and noticed the "clean" smell right away! I have a dog that just seems to smell like a dog from time to time which gives my apartment that distinct lived in odor. My friend who came in remarked about the change the minute he entered, without warning him of the sanitizer. I read in some comments on this product that it does not get rid of the kitty litter smell, which I would assume it can't as it is only a small device that seems to battle the moderate scents in a room.To be objective about the noise that everyone mentioned in previous comments on this product...There really is a pronounced noise to it that might either bother or soothe an individual. I find it both... When I need real quiet this thing really does NOT offer that. However, there is something soothing about the sound as well that can be described like a white noise. I kept it on during sleep and it really helped me sleep as it masks all other noises. It sounds more like a gentle fan that does not hit your face and dry it out.My one concern is the bulb. I'm curious how long it will last?! Looking at Amazon it looks like the replacement will cost around $8. My hope is that I only need to replace it once a year with a 12 hour/day use. If not, the cost might be too much for my taste. I will keep you updated to see if it bugs out on me!I recommend to try it out if you have moderate scents you want to get rid of and live in a smaller space. For the price of $22-25 I think it is worth it. Don't buy it for more... save it for the new bulbs you're going to need to purchase later on.
