Paws up for the Brondell O2+ Balance Air Purifier. Here's why:
Let me start with the most important information you need when choosing an air purifier: the health benefits. Since using the Brondell O2+ Balance air purifier in my bedroom, I no longer wake up with a stuffy nose and I sleep better. Although I don't know if Jasmine the Poodle's breathing has improved, I'd guess that it has.

I’m of the belief that every pet owning home should have at least one air purifier running 24 hours a day, especially if you have dogs, cats, small mammals, and most especially if you have birds.
I’ve seen too many situations where allergies or pet odor get between a human guardian and a companion animal, which sometimes results in the re-homing of a beloved pet. |

I was more than pleased to give the Brondell O2+ air purifier a try in my bedroom. Like most people, I spend more than eight hours a night in the bedroom, and my dog (and often foster dogs) sleep there with me.
You can see how much dirt, hair, and junk the Brondell O2+ Balance pulled out of my air!

I placed the Brondell O2+ Balance air purifier at the foot of my bed next to my dog’s bed. It is very simple to set up—just remove the plastic from the various filters and then replace them easily into the unit.
The lighted blue interface is very sexy. It’s dummy proof (re: uncomplicated), and the included remote control allows you to change settings from across the room. It has a night mode that senses when the lights go out and dims the interface so that it doesn’t interrupt your sleep. Nice feature. On its lowest setting, “silent,” you won’t even know the air purifier is there, pulling dust and microbes out of the air. At the highest setting, you can use it as white noise when you sleep and it will pull even more pollution and microbes out of your sleeping environment. |
I keep my Brondell O2+ Balance on the “auto” setting. It’s amazing how this unit knows when to power on and when it can resume working in the background. When I make the bed or my dog shakes near it, it puts itself on a higher setting. This gives me confidence that the machine is acting in my best interest.

The Brondell O2+ Balance is a sleek, elegant looking air purifier that will blend into your décor. I’d put it anywhere in my home and feel comfortable with how it looks with my furniture. At $349.00, this is an affordable unit for its class. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of a unit twice its price, but that just makes it easier to use. There’s plenty to admire here. My final evaluation of the Brondell O2+ Balance air purifier is that it's useful as a tool to reduce pet allergies, and it does a great job on pet odor as well. If you have a dusty home with a lot of pet dander, this would be a smart purchase. |
