Brookstone Ionizer



Last fall our good friend Nina allowed us to use her Brookstone Ionizer at the cabin on extended loan. I notice it gets very mixed reviews on Amazon from a handful of reviewers. We love it! This ionizer carried out multiple scent-reducing jobs at the lake cabin very effectively. Since moving here to North Star Hall it's proven it's worth again. Our larger basement has water issues that leaves a hanging, damp, musty odor in the air. Left alone that dank air tends to waft it's unpleasantness upstairs to the rest of the hall, especially in bathrooms next to the theater room. When we leave the ionizer running in the basement there are no awkward smells anywhere! The results are clear. Up until the setting of "7" it runs near silently.

Contrary to the couple of Amazon reviews, we've been running this thing pretty much 24/7 for months now without issue. When the little amber light comes on at the bottom of the unit, I'll take it outside and rinse it off with a hose. I find it cleans rather quickly. I don't think I would risk putting it in the dishwasher. Although it's apparently designed for cleaning in a dishwasher, I suspect doing so would be hard on the plastic and wires.

We highly recommend this product! Treat it well and it'll clear your air for you for a long time.
