The PlasmaWave feature breaks after a few months on these. When it is working, you hear a faint electrical clicking noise, but that feature burns out after about six months and you're left with just the fan and the filter.
When you link to the WOOT site you find this item is NOT a Refurb but instead it is a RECONDITIONED... in WOOT's own words, you can expect this to be an item that "was leased" (typically by "a business" and for more than a short term) and has been given new items to restore it to full operation BUT anything not restored in the device (meaning very much of the device or else WOOT would lose money) can easily be years old and used continuously for those years ... so basically WOOT is buying a bunch of used air cleaners and adding new filters or a knob, etc., while the rest of the device (its motors, power supplies, etc.) have remain and have been used for years, generally in a workplace environment of some kind ...so Good luck with that! This same item at COSTCO has been on sale new for $100
