Good deal for the Price!

Date of Review:  Oct 17, 2004
Review: One aspect that may confuse people, is that these units aren't so much "air filters" as they are negative ion generators.

Negative Ions have a very positive effect on people's moods and brain chemistry. Creating a sense of well-being. They...

This is on Consumer Reports' NOT RECOMMENDED list!

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2005
Review: Who's writing these 5 star reviews? Consumer Reports TESTED this product and says it is not only INEFFECTIVE, but it produces TOO MUCH OZONE! I first read about this in USA today but here are some links that give the real story:

Just breathing, it took no time to notice the air quality improvement.

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: Buy first, it works, well made and costs less. If you decide to get a more expensive type, put this on your refrigerator, or give it to a friend.
Review: I was very sceptical of the XJ-2000, but it does seem the most popular on the internet. A look at epinions shows a wide variance of opinions. So, a couple clarifications. The 12v 10w power supply does get hotter than one would expect, but it's not...

Cheaply made, mediocre results, awful ozone smell

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you want a real air cleaner, you're just going to have to pay for a real air cleaner. Stick with the well known brands.
Review: I'm not sure why anybody would rate this product 5 stars. Either they don't have any other basis for comparison or they have some other motivation which is beside me. This is one of those "you get what you pay for" purchases.

Someone...

XJ-2000: more bang for your buck compared to the Ionic Breeze

Date of Review:  Dec 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you opt for this type of system, go with the XJ-2000.
Review: Like the reviewers of 03/30/04 and 04/25/05, I too own or owned both the XJ-2000 and Ionic Breeze. However, my findings were significantly different. Rather than focus on the manufacturer's pricing strategy or ones ability/inability to remove a...

Best bang for buck

Date of Review:  Oct 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: I would recommend the XJ 2000 or another ionizer to everyone to improve the air quality you breathe.
Review: I was sceptical at first when I saw the ionizer infomercials on TV, so instead of buying one from there, I purchased the cheaper XJ 2000 from a seller on eBay.

Contrary to my beliefs, the unit works very well! Within a day of plugging it...

Adapter problem

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2004
Review: Just a warning about the adapter for the Surround Air XJ-2000. I'd had my air purifier for some months (not quite sure how long). Last week I unplugged it and found the adapter almost too hot to handle and it was warped! I notified Surround Air and...

SENDING IT BACK!!

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2003
Review: I purchased this ionizer just under 30 days ago and will be sending it back!
The strong ion emission smell gives me a headache. Stinks up my whole apartment! I have since researched ion emission and have found that if can actually cause asthma...

Design Change!!

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2007
Review: Beware. They use the same exact same model #.
I was impressed with the 1st one and later decided to get 3 additional units.
The model # is still XJ-2000 BUT they have added 2 small fans and GREATLY reduced the power to just a trickle.

Review: How can you tell this works? It is obvious this machine increases Ozone in the vicinity. However, if you read ConsumerReports:
