Well worth the money
I have had one of these for several years now. I like it so much I gave one to a friend. It is on 24/7. I never turn it off. Sometimes lint and dust in the air gets sucked up into the intake part. You can tell when this happens because you will not feel any air come out when you hold your hand next to it. When this happens, I unplug it and use toothpicks to reach inside the narrow vents to unclog them but I suppose a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment would work just as well.<br />You can tell it is working because there is a burning smell, like you get when you are ironing clothes. That is the smell of the little buggers in the air getting fried. You can buy replacement bulbs for $15 from Target when yours burns out.<br />I am using this in a big bathroom that even with an exhaust fan used to get mildewy every few months from 5 people taking hot showers and steaming up the place. Since I have been using it, there has been no mildew on the ceiling or walls at all.<br />I plan to buy a couple to put away for when this one finally dies in case the company stops making it.
