REDUCES CIGARETTE ODOR IN YOUR HOME

Not sure if the manufacturer will appreciate this review but I'm pretty sure I am not the only cigarette smoker out there so here goes. When we moved into our new house, I chose my 10' x 15' home office as the only room I would smoke in. I bought this product to try to spare my husband from that odor in the rest of the house. I waited 30 days to post this review and I can tell you it made a massive difference. It doesn't completely remove the smell but I would say it cuts it by 80% at minimum. I run it on #1-Low continuously. It's quiet, doesn't affect phone conversations and I have not seen a difference in our electric bill. Unlike almost everything else you buy these days, this product worked better than advertised. Recommend!

Basement apartment

I live in a 500 sf basement apartment. Kitchen, den, and bedroom all connected / separated by doorways. House built in 1960's. Been here two years. Air has always been, heavy, musty. I got a bad sinus infection last week and bought this to see if it could help. WOW what a difference this has made in the air quality. The air is now crisp and clean. No odors from cooking, no odor from the paint on the cinder block walls. The air seems to be lighter and brighter if that's possible. Just feels clean and I'm breathing great, sinus infection is gone. Well put together product. Ready to run out of box, just take plastic off filters and pop back in place and cut on. Three speeds, highest speed Is not loud at all. I have in the middle of my den and it has cleaned the air in the kitchen and bedroom as well. The hepa filter lasts for six months and they send you 4 of the black charcoal filters that are changed after a month or two. Plus replacement on hepa filters is only about $20. These filters also get those bad microscopic organisms. Shopped the big box stores and you could only buy an air purifier that cleaned smoke, pet odors, and dust. ..not the small microbes. .for more than I paid for the Veva. The one they had that cleaned the microbes were over $200 and only cleaned an area 150 sf. The Viva has made a dramatic difference. I'm very pleased. Thank you Veva for making a great product that works and that won't break the bank when I need a new hepa filter.

WOW! I can’t believe what I was breathing in before this!!

Ok sooo I feel as if this is a good time to write a review, I haven’t even had this for 2 months yet and let me tell you it WORKS! I’m extremely allergic to my fiancé’s cat and have a bad dust/pollen allergy as well so this time of year is usually miserable for me! Since I’ve gotten this I’ve slept soooo much better and can breathe again! I think it says to change the hepa filter every 3 months but I started to notice my throat getting scratchy and eyes itching again so I decided to check the filter... I literally almost threw up when I saw how absolutely disgusting this filter was! After NOT EVEN TWO MONTHS! I was in complete shock to see what I was breathing in before this!! Also I’m going to add that our cat is NOT allowed in our bedroom because of my allergies, and I’m literally constantly cleaning and dusting bc of my allergies and the fact that my baby is crawling around all day, so I usually dust, sweep and swiffer every 2/3 hours. So I did not expect this to look the way it did at all!! I included pics bc I’m literally in shock! I will be ordering another for my kids room bc I feel like the one that’s in there doesn’t work at all compared to this one! I wish they made one for extra large rooms bc I would purchase one for my living/dinning room! I definitely recommend this product! And no I didn’t get anything at all for this review! It’s very rare I write reviews!

Looks neat, cheap filters, but aren't reliable and they will break sooner or later.

These are probably one of the most unreliable air purifiers I've ever used. In my experience, you'll have 50% chance of getting one that lasts. We initially ordered two of the vevas, and within a week one had a massive violent rattle coming from the motor. I contacted customer support, and to their credit, had a replacement to my door within 3 days. The replacement I received was... finicky. If you touched anything on the sides or top, it would make the upper blower grind somehow. Even switching from 1 to 2 or moving the unit will make it grind. It works as long as I don't look at it funny, make sure it perfectly level, or move it at all. Our second unit had a upper fan that went out of balance. Every 30 seconds you would hear plastic on plastic grinding on level 1 and 2. I contacted them, and this one was replaced too. The replacement I got has been rock solid so far. These do suck dust, cat hair, and everything else if they are working. The filters are cheap and they have the best customer service I've ever dealt with. On the down side... the units are extremely unpredictable, unreliable, and should be more sturdy inside the upper and lower part of the shell. Another thing that bothers me is it gets dust buildup on the exhaust with both filters in place. To sum it all up.. I bought 2, had both replaced, now 1 works and the other has acted up since day one, and will die sooner or later. These guys have awesome customer service and vanessa does a great job, but they seriously need to look at the inner shell design, because it needs revamped. I wouldn't recommend this unit. The filters are cheap, but the units just aren't worth the hassle. If I could get a refund and send these back and shop for something else, I would. Honestly, I don't think these are capable of taking the beating from even being shipped, and is probably a big part of the issue because they feel fragile compared to other purifiers.

Replacement filter sets for this unit to be available at the end of June 2017

This is an update to my previous review, and is about getting REPLACEMENT FILTERS for this new unit. I obtained the following information by emailing directly with the manufacturer: "Our replacement filters for this product will be available on Amazon at the end of this June. The VEVA 8000 has the lowest filter replacement cost of any True HEPA air purifier. A replacement set that includes 1 HEPA Filter and 4 Carbon Prefilters will cost around $19. They will be sold in a super value pack that will contain a total of two sets (2 HEPAs and 8 Carbon filters). I hope my answer helps!"
