my boyfriend has been complaining about the kids shedding and being dusty and stuff, and actually been wheezing on occasion. he whined so much that I finally decided to buy the air cleaner I have been thinking of buying for the past 5 years, the Friedrich C-90B, recommended by consumer reports. we ordered it from this company, which had one of the best prices online. http://www.goodcommonsense.net/airfilc90-a.html just turning on the air cleaner periodically, my bf has stopped his wheezing, the unit is pretty quiet AND ferret proofed, looks a lot nice than the pictures I have seen, and we are quite happy with it. so if anybody is looking for an air cleaner, this one seems to work as well as CR says it does, and you can always check back with me in 6 months and see if we still like it. the 2nd recommendation I have is the company, good common sense, that we bought it from. being canadians, we were very fussy about the shipping company (UPS charges ridiculous brokerage fees when you accept a package shipped from the states, and a lot of times the shipper does not know about these fees, they are currently being sued). the company was very accommodating in terms of trying to ship it via USPS, and when that wasn't possible, promised to absorb any additional fees UPS imposes (they have a deal with UPS so such fees are not supposed to be charged). not affiliated with the product or the company, just really happy with the way we were treated. Selina, Clef, Popcorn, Sorin, Mochi, Jolt & Cola p.s. now's a good time for canadians to donate to s.o.s. and ohio rescues, with the canadian dollar around parity with us. donating 100 us costed me about 103 canadian a few days ago, and 108 canadian 3 weeks ago. p.p.s. ferret.
