Luma Comfort Air Purifier Review

My daughter has allergies and asthma. Many times at night she wakes up coughing or wheezing. Our pediatrician recommended we get an air purifier so we decided to give the Luma Comfort a try. With limited space and so many options out there, this one seemed like a good choice. It's compact, sleek design is small enough to fit on my daughter's nightstand but it's still very powerful. It also offers a lot of great features without being too complicated for an average mom to figure out.

Despite its small size, the Luma Comfort AP400W provides 400 feet of protection. This was more than enough for my daughter's bedroom. Running the purifier removes 99% of airborne particles including things like dust and pet dander. While I have no way to scientifically prove the accuracy, I certainly noticed a marked decrease in my daughter's coughing and wheezing in the three weeks we've been using our purifier. Because it also comes equipped with an anti-bacterial UV lamp, I also know that the germs my older kids are bringing home from school are a little less likely to effect her.

The touch screen controller on the purifier is easy to operate, but not overly sensitive. I love that there's a programmable timer, so I can leave it running for a just a few hours at a time and not have to worry about forgetting to turn it off. Another great feature is how quiet the fan is. It omits a very light hum, but even that fades into the background after a few hours, which is very important since I have it running at night when my daughter needs to get her rest. I even noticed that it really does cut back on odors. I have a younger child still in diapers in the same room and when the purifier is running the odor after diaper changes doesn't linger for hours the way it normally does.

The HEPA filter is high quality and should have an extensive life, but there is an indicator that will light up to let you know when it needs to be changed. Since our system is new, I haven't had to change the it yet, but you do have to remove the packaging from around the original filter when you first set it up. The grill pops open easily and the filter slides right into place. Instructions are on top of the unit, so they are always handy when you need them.

Overall, I am really impressed with the Luma Comfort air purifier. It has all the features I was looking for at a reasonable price. It's the perfect way to freshen up the air inside the house during the cool winter months when the windows are closed and the heat is running. It will also work just as well in the summer when the air conditioning is on. The best part for me is the difference it's made for my daughter. For the first time in almost a year, she's sleeping through the night without coughing fits. This makes me one happy mama.

In addition to air purifiers, Luma Comfort also offers Misting Fans, Ice Makers, Evaporative Coolers, and Humidifiers. To learn more about Luma comfort and all of their fantastic products, you can visit their  website or follow them on face book or twitter.
