Advanced Bio-Engineered Fiber Material
The Rabbit Air utilizes a HEPA filter made of the most advanced Bio-Engineer fiber material available. To help you and your family breathe fresher air, the filter not only traps but also destroys common allergens like pet epithelia, dust mites, and pollen--all of which typically accumulate on the filters.

Three-Stage Filtration Process
The Rabbit Air operates at four different speeds and uses a three-stage filtration process to eliminate, remove, and destroy many allergens, odors, and germs. The first stage utilizes the pre-filter, which captures large size particles, dust, pet hair, germs, fungus, and mold. It's also sink washable and dishwasher safe, so you don't have to worry about the expense of continually replacing filters.

The second stage involves the BioGS HEPA filter, made to last up to three years at 122 hours per day operation. This filter boasts Bio-Fibers that destroy allergens and bacteria captured on it. Additionally, flu prevention coating helps safeguard the your health and the health of your family.

Finally, the third stage features the honeycomb charcoal deodorization filter, which is also sink washable and dishwasher safe, requiring no replacement. This filter removes exhaust gas, pet odor, trash odor, chemical substances, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), household odors, and cigarette odor.

Flu Prevention Capability
Using this air purifier helps protect your health and the health of your family. The Osaka Public Health Research Center in Japan found that the Rabbit Air's HEPA filter, which is coated with anti-influenza virus agent, effectively lowered the viral transmission of H3N2 influenza virus. Additionally, it is able to trap airborne allergens and contaminants down to 0.3 microns in size 99.97 percent of the time, and features a Nano-Silver pre-filter to help kill airborne bacteria, mold, and viruses.

Cutting-Edge Motor Design
The Rabbit Air features a cutting-edge motor design that allows for ultra-quiet operation of only 19 decibels (nearly silent) at low speed, and up to only 49 decibels at high speed. The motor also moves air faster (two air changes per hour) because there is no brush resistance to cause sparks and damaging wear and tear after prolonged use. Because it's so efficient, you can run the Rabbit Air 24 hours a day and still save on your energy bill; this purifier uses only 67 watts at Turbo speed and seven watts in silent mode.

Safe and easy to operate, the Rabbit Air emits zero ozone and measures 18.0 x 22.5 x 9.0 inches (WxHxD) and weighs 17 pounds. It also comes with a five-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

Bio Fresh is the Best
I have problems with airborne allergens and with asthma. I have spent nearly two thousand dollars on different air cleaners over the past ten years. They all proved to be ineffective, noisy, ugly, and/or overpriced. The Bio Fresh works for me. None of the others did. I enjoy the several different modes of cleaning available. It is an attractive machine that fits nicely against a wall. Everything about it is well thought-out. It is well worth the money. I just purchased my second Bio Fresh air cleaner and it was delivered earlier than expected. It has helped my breathing more than all the antihistamines, inhalers, and all the other machines combined.

I've tried them all; Rabbit Air BioGP is the best.
Before buying the Rabbit Air BioGP 582A, I bought three other units.

The new Oreck Tower Pro XL was first. It was an amazing product, made the entire area smell fresh and the turbo mode is powerful like a rocket. Why did I return it? After a month or so, it started to *hum* in an annoying oscillating way.

Then I tried the Friedrich C-90B. The ugliest unit by far, looks like it was designed in 1970. But it worked great. Why did I return it? After a week it started to *rattle*, the fan blades hitting.

Then I tried the Alen A375. I was impressed, it had a low-tech remote control, seemed advanced compared to the Friendrich but still a dull white color. Why did I return it? It was weak, didn't purify the air or deodorize, and the fan vented air straight up.

So then I found out about this Rabbit, and purchased one. It is by far the most impressive looking unit, Lighted display, high-tech remote, beautifully designed. The good news is its function is as advanced as its features. While the vent is upwards, it is angled so that the entire room gets a blast of fresh purified air. The 4 speeds are perfect, from silent to turbo. The filters are huge, and inexpensive. And it works as good as it looks.

I had some dust on a tv stand from construction work in the area. I blew the dust off, and for the first time, I saw the display light up warning of *bad air*. That is how sensitive it is. After a few minutes, the display warning went down and back to normal.

This is the unit that does it all, does it quietly, and does it while looking great.

BioGS 582A - not bad for the money
Let me start off with the negative points, but qualifying that by saying this is a positive review;

- There doesn't seem to be much difference between the 582A and the lower-coverage 421A, except for the calibrated fan speeds. If you don't intend to run the unit "full-tilt", or if noise is a concern, you're better off saving the extra 70$ and buying the 421A.

- The "auto" mode seems to be of dubious value, and will significantly reduce the coverage area of the unit, because it relies on the on-board sensors to adjust fan speed, and they can't sample air quality over the entire advertised coverage area unless the unit is on very high. You can test this yourself by hitting the "turbo" button -- the dust/odor sensor will spike as the unit pulls in more air. You'll be better off to manually set the fan to the highest setting that you find acceptable (noise-wise), and purchasing multiple units for coverage. See my previous comments about the 421A.

- The "odor" sensor seems to be possessed. I assume the manufacturer is using some sort of an industrial chemical sensor, so it goes off at mysterious times for mysterious reasons. Unfortunately, it can't be disabled (easily). You'll notice this feature is missing from the new microA2 model.

- My 582A shakes at low fan speed, no doubt because of an imbalance in the internal fan (which is oddly somewhat off-center). This problem is entirely cosmetic, as the unit makes no additional noise as a result, but the shaking is oddly disconcerting and wouldn't exist if the fan's axis was at the center of the unit.

The good stuff;

- For the money, you would be hard pressed to buy a similar device.

- The five year warranty is exceptional, although the unit is of such simple design, its hard to imagine anything breaking or wearing out.

- The multistage filtration system is well conceived, filter life is excellent, and replacement costs are low.

- When run at an appropriate speed with a reasonable coverage area, the unit is quiet and power efficient.

- It will actually remove many household odors, despite the oddities of the sensor.
