Love how the machine works. It literally eats cigarette smoke odors. Very different from normal air purifiers. Now for my wish list of bells and whistles: 1) The speed indicator (which is literally the only knob other than the one/off switch) could be bigger with a few notches indicating a scale of 1-10 or 1-5 so people can align where to turn the knob. 2) It would be fabulous if there were a sensor with an option to automatically increase/decrease speed based on smoke fume intensity 3) The screws for the bottom to access the filter could be hooks instead. Those screw heads will be worn down after a few air filter changes. 3) The directions for the air filters could easily be more descriptive. For example, should the tar filter blue side be facing in or out when replacing? And are you sure the HEPA filter will last for one year? During my first tar filter replacement (3 months of continuous use for a family with two smokers in a designated room) the HEPA core filter seemed far dirtier than the exterior tar filter. So, kudos on a well-functioning product. Please keep upgrading the easy of use on the next generation. It is brilliant and does work remarkably well. Just not very easy/practical to swap the filters.
