Good question I guess I wasn't clear...I have bought eight and they are all in service without any issues....the oldest one I bought is from July 2016, which has thousands of hours on it and it runs like new. They are really only effective for one room given they can only suck up so much air around them, so I've taken to get one for each room, since dust is generated in every room in one way or another, some more than others. I am sensitive to dust & pet dander so these units have essentially increased my quality of life significantly, hence my eight purchase. At $70 it is really a no brainer, I have four of these Woot C545 "refurbs" and they all came as new as far as I could tell. I don't use the wifi, it's actually a pain in the ass to connect, so not worth the hassle since I just leave them on either auto or some other setting which I manually change based on what's going on in the room in question at the time.

brand new at costco is $100 and comes with extra filters and superior returns.

i know not everyone has a costco membership but for those that do, is that way better deal than a refurb?

also those with costco citi get cashback

Likely someone on the vendor side or Amazon didn't check the right boxes on the prop 65 forms. These are definitely compliant as I had mine shipped from Costco no problem.

Bought this previously from woot and it arrived like it had either been in a smokers house or directly under the sun for 2 years. Besides the yellowing it ran fine and came with new filters.

Even if you get lucky with a brand new unit I still recommend getting it from Costco as you get an extra set of filters.

I have two of these refurbished which are still in operation. Back for another. Check your utility company's rebate available. I get $50 back so it's basically $20.

I bought my refurbished unit directly from Winix's website [winixamerica.com] for $69.99 back on 8/11/22. It seems like when Woot ends their sale, Winix lowers their price back to $69.99.

As for the condition, item arrived looking like and smelling new. I've set it on Auto for nearly 2 months and it works great. Occasionally it goes on high with a Red Poor Air Quality indicator after cooking; but quickly returns to virtually silent Auto Mode a few minutes after.

Also, I'd rather buy directly from Winix but honestly Woot has been good to me with quick shipping and their customer service has been excellent. Their used/refurbished items are virtually new in my experience; especially the $12 Blink X2 add on cameras they sell often. (Described as acceptable but included original box with everything looking like new; in fact the retail box was sealed)

It seems that Woot prefers to refund rather than return as well. The few times I have had issues and filed a complaint they allowed me to keep the item and fully refunded me so you can see why I can't speak ill of them...

Lol. So, at lest my unit, there is a washable pre filter over the filter. You need to clean that every couple weeks. I generally you the sweeper attachment. Think of it as a lint tray. Clean the pre filter everything you sweep I'd say.

Anyone know if PSE&G gives rebates on this? Information on their site is unclear.

Filter replacement cost will about even it out so Costco is the winner for sure.

I was wondering if anyone can give feedback whether or not using an air compressor to clean the filters is a good idea.

This YouTube user [youtube.com] does this and is pretty confident that the cleaning is effective and does no damage to the filter but perhaps he is wrong?

It would be great to clean and reuse the Winix C545 filters as they are somewhat expensive to replace, especially is you have multiple air purifiers.

I'm thinking about employing my Datavac [amazon.com] that I use to blow out/clean vintage game consoles and my PC.

An air compressor seems a bit too powerful/overkill to clean filters IMO and might damage them. However, I'm hoping to find a deal on some new replacement filters in a few months before resorting to reusing them...

Got a refurb couple of years ago shipped to Calif, and it's been great. Tried to order this deal, but says can't ship to Calif…. Why not now?
