Wein Vortex VI-3500 Room Ionic Air Purifier

This little machine has worked so well for my husband's allergies, we bought a second one. He has one in his bedroom and one in his office now. Beware though that you must clean it regularly as dust accumulates on the little pad in front and around it. I just use the dusting attachment on my vacuum, and it returns it to like new.

I have read studies about negative ions helping with depression. I have not felt depressed since I got this. If you can afford to take a gamble on negative ions, this one seems to be the right choice. Others do not create enough ions at the levels that get consistently good results. When the plastic is around the antenna, the sensor indicates no ions. When I take it off, it detects ions. So ions are being generated. Is it as many as claimed? Who knows? But the scientists who ran these tests used the same specs as this product, so it is worth the gamble in my eyes. Certainly as worthwhile as medicating for depression, which I also do.It also helps clean the air. Maybe the 2 are related. Or maybe ECT works because it cancels positive ions in toxins in our brains and we can get that effect from just putting these negative ions in the air. I put mine next to the intake of my cpap all night so I am pumping negative oxygen ions up my nose all night. The experiments indicate that it does not matter how many nights you do this, which may suggest that positive ions could be trapped in the brain and can be reset with a healing effect that lasts many days or longer.It does feel right to me that depression could partly be a lack of electrons, blocking the movement of some signals in the brain with some stubborn positively charged toxins like air pollution. It does feel toxic and blocked to be depressed.

I really wanted this product to work for me. I have a lot of symptoms whenever a low pressure system moves through that seem like they could be explained the effects of positive ions. But unfortunately it only ever seemed to make me feel worse when I had it running. It would always make me feel really tired and mildly sick.It also emits a funny smell, I'm not sure if it's ozone or something else. I also noticed small black spots on the wall starting to form and weren't easy to get off.I'm still giving this four stars because it seems to work for others, and it emits orders of magnitude more negative ions than any of the other products out there. I wish it worked for me, but maybe it will work for you.

I have several different brands and an a fan of ionizers after reading the book “The Ion Miracle”. This one is the best.It makes every night good sleeping weather. It combats that tired sometimes edgy feeling you can get from “ill winds” (when the wind is hotter than the air).It really fires up fast and I really like the ion indicator.

I purchased this to take on vacation to help air out the hotel rooms. I tried it at home first and found it to be worthless. I have many different kinds of air cleaners and was excited to take this one on vacation. It worked electronically but was not powerful enough to dissipate any room odors or fragrance in a 24 hr period. My teeny tiny Wein air cleaner worked much better.

It is a very good device. I am very happy using it in the bedroom. The only one I found with very powerful ionizing without ventilator. It is absolute quite. I wake up fresh and more energetic. Im planning to buy more for other rooms also.To the producer:After about 2 months using, I no longer see any ion flashes on the ion display. When switching the device on (red control lamp is working), only weak 1-2 ion flashes occur, but then no more ion flashes occure anynmore. The device is absolutely quiet. Also it "feelable", that there is nothing comming out.power supply is working, I checked it.Is it possible that the gas it contains for the ion generation has been used up?How can we proceed? I ask for support. Thanks

This negative ion emitter has been cleaning the air in my friend's LA house for the last two years. She has lung issues and she loves this machine. Now that I have my own Wein Vortex VI-3500 ROOM IONIC AIR PURIFIER I too am enjoying the fresh air it creates. I'm going to be buying a second one soon since it is so light & portable and keeps the air fresh. I thought there would be a plastic smell to it when I opened the box, but nope, no smell.

It's a very old-school device and, of course, produces a little bit of ozone. But on the upside, it's much cheaper than the Ion Trading Japan MI-1000-S and produces a much stronger ionic wind (compared it myself) and doesn't smell like cheap plastic. On the downside, it appears that the emitter antenna here would be harder to clean than the emitter 'needles' of the MI.Tip: Don't leave your phone near it for too long. I did and some pixels of my OLED screen started to act up. The problem went away after keeping my phone away from the device for some time. This happened twice and has never happened before with my screen, so I'm pretty sure of the correlation.
