ORECK DualMax™ Air Purifier – My Allergy Season Secret Weapon #Giveaway ARV $600

May 20, 2016 - By 

Something brand new and amazing has taken up residence in my bedroom. OH, don’t panic. This is a family friendly site. The sleek Energy Star qualified, Air 16 Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier with Truman Cell Filtration System has found a home in our master bedroom and it’s helping to clean the air in my house.

My husband has brutal allergies this time of year and he’s been stuffed up for weeks already. His allergies flare in Spring and are brutal again in the Fall months too. You know the kind I mean?  He has the close all the windows, leave the shoes at the door and clean the floors daily, kind of allergies. So when the Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier showed up, he actually lit up. My husband is used to seeing a steady stream of cool new products and buzz worthy toys show up here at our house. BUT very often they are goodies for me, or toys for the kids. This Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier is something we all needed BIG time, and so I understood his gleeful reaction.

[tweetthis]The ORECK DualMax™ Air Purifier – is my Allergy Season Secret Weapon [/tweetthis]

A week ago I unboxed it and read the instructions, which are super simple, and got the Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier going. It sat in my office for a few hours. I planned to move it to a different room, but then my husband got home and claimed it for our bedroom. It’s been running non stop ever since.

It’s a bit early to tell if this is impacting our allergies dramatically yet, but it looks great and is really impressive technology, plus with the Oreck Venture vacuum we got here this month, we’ve got a good handle on allergy season. The Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier has two fans that produce twice as much airflow as many other air purifiers. Double the power to move the air, draw it in and capture pollen, dust, pet dander, cigarette smoke and other allergens that pass through the filter.

The Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier has a Truman Cell® filtration system, combined with a high-efficiency odour absorber, called the Helios Shield. Both are designed for high performance and easy maintenance — and will never need replacing. Both the Truman Cell and the Helios Shield are permanent and can be cleaned! Many other air purifiers have replaceable and expensive filters that create an ongoing cost. The Air 16 Oreck DualMax™ Air Purifier is easy to clean.

  2. I have been “wheezing” this spring. Clean purified air would be a big help with my breathing problems. Have to use a puffer some days.

  3. I think i have seasonal allergies and sometimes I wake up at night coughing and sneezing. This purifier would be great to have.

  6. This would be great for my seasonal allergies and pet hair and dander. My purifying plants work but this would be so much better!!

  8. During radiation for breast cancer they cooked a part of my lung so I cough alot and have to watch out for colds and germs

  10. I live near a steel plant and I can’t believe the amount of dust and soot I get in my house! And strangely enough, myself and my cat has allergies so this would be ideal for the whole family, including the cat!

  11. My daughter who is 11 has suffered from allergies and asthma since she was 9 months old. This would be amazing for her, especially when there is pollen in the air, or smoke from summer forest fires.

  12. This would be great..we have 2 dogs and a cat, some days (depending on who is visiting) we have up to 6 dogs in this house..would love fresher air!

  16. I am an allergy suffer…and so is my youngest daughter. I love the sound of anything that can help clean up the air in our nearly 100 year old house!

  17. My family is filled with allergies, and my house seems to have a never ending supply of dust. This would be amazing to own.

  19. We just moved out in the city where the air isn’t the cleanest so an air purifier would help keep the air in our home clean and fresh.

  20. We live on a very dusty road. Our family includes both dogs and cats, all of whom shed and some of whom could use a bath more often. I would love to own the Oreck air purifier to clean the air we breathe!

  21. I would like this mainly because I seem to be getting allergies now that I am older. I would love to see if this helps with my stuffy nose and sneezing.

  26. We are a house full of pets and allergies so this would be a lifesaver! It’s also been very smoky outside lately with the smoke from the wildfires up north, so I’m concerned about that getting into the house.

  27. I need this for my son and my partner. Both suffer from severe seasonal allergies. It was an eye opener when I saw just how sick the little one can get and there’s nothing I can do really to stop it. This would help I’m sure.

  28. I would love this for my mom! she has mentioned to me a couple times that she would love a air purifier. Her & her boyfriend smokes in their house, they have a bird, cat and 2 dogs, they live on a farm so there is lots of stuff floating around in the air. this would help!

  33. My husband smokes like a chimney! I’m a non-smoker and even though I’ve tried and tried to get him to quit, it’s to no avail. I’m concerned about my health (as well as those who come into my home….especially my grand daughter who is 3 years old). The oreck dual max air purifier would sure come in handy. Thank you for the opportunity to try and win one!

  36. This would help reduce the dust in the house and not to mention lessen the amount that our electronics collect.

  38. My very old home is full of a lot of awful things, under the floors that we can’t get to, of course. The Oreck Dual Max will certainly help with all the symptoms from the mould and dust – as well as the trees blooming in the spring with when my husband really suffers.

  39. I have a basement flat and the heating was so bad that I had to change to a very simple filter, with the result that a lot more dust etc is flying around. I’m very stuffed up which I suppose is a reaction to the excessive dust in the air. This would be ideal to help me breathe more easily.

  40. My son has allergies which have flared up intensely over the past couple months since the weather has gotten warmer. We have the windows open a lot but what comes in with the breeze is dust & allergens which cause him sneezing & runny nose. I currently don’t have a purifier so this would be interesting to try.

  42. We need it to improve the quality of our air, especially in a winter when I can’t even open the windows.

  43. SEASONAL ALLERGIES, TWO CATS AND A SMOKER IN THE HOUSE. I REALLY NEED ONE OF THESE TO CLEAN UP THE AIR IN MY HOME.

I’m very stuffed up which I suppose is a reaction to the excessive dust in the air. This would be ideal to help me breathe more easily.

  52. I need this for my house because we are allergy sufferers and my daughter has some breathing problems from spring to fall.

  53. We have six cats & I have have seasonal allergies. In Spring & Fall sometimes I’m so clogged up & can barely breathe through my nose & most allergy meds make me dozy.

  56. I don’t have an air purifier and it’s very stuffy in my condo. I think this would help me sleep better and help with allergies.

  62. I need this to alleviate my son’s allergy symptoms because they can really interfere with his activities & I don’t always want to give him allergy meds.

  64. In my basement flat I had to change to a very simple filter to get some heat, with the result that a lot more dust etc is flying around. I’m very stuffed up which I suppose is a reaction to the excessive dust in the air. This would be ideal to help me breathe more easily.

  65. i would like to win this because i want cleaner air for both my son and myself to breathe in , its very muggy lately and hot and causes pollutants in the air which cause allergies to spark up, my bf also has athsma which is another reason why id like to win this would be beyond amazing for our home

Thanks a bunch for the chance to win. 🙂

  78. This would help out a lot right now, with the windows closed and the air on, and having 3 dogs and a hubby that smokes, I sure would benefit from this machine!!

  117. Problems with our builder meant that my heating didn’t work properly, after I paid someone else it now works better but to get the most heat I have to use a very basic filter in the furnace.

  245. I have pets, ones a very long haired cat named Fluffy Butt. I also have four free roaming ferrets. Free roaming means that they run around the house all day long (WEll ok , they sleep for 20 hrs a day, but you get the idea) They get put away at night. They actually have some what long hair..but anways….pet hair etc is my reasoning) PLus you can’t open the windows in our town because the “lagoon” smells so bad, it makes you gag
