FDA-Cleared Medical-Grade Air Purifier: Molekule Air Pro

chromodynamicachromodynamica: I had a severe chemical exposure injury this past year that renders me exceptionally sensitive to VOCs. For me, purchasing an air purifier this expensive was a massive leap of faith—and desperation—given the pain I experience, even when exposed to relatively low concentrations of VOCs in my surroundings.

The generously provided, very detailed, and expert-level scientific information provided through the manufacturer's customer service representatives has been kindly offered. I have had a LOT of questions for the Molekule team as I've been working to make my home environment livable for myself given my new neurological condition. They've been very good teachers, truly, and that certainly wasn't their job, nor expected, but wow, did they deliver when I was in need.

I have been utterly amazed at the Molekule team's helpfulness as I've worked towards my goal of bodily comfort in a VOC-minimized environment. Their patience and care in helping me assess different strategies for making the most of their technology is absolutely heartening.

For me, the technology the Molekule has developed is already making a huge difference in my quality of life, not the least of...

DJ: I found after buying that Molekule has already been found guilty of false advertising claims and had to retract all 26 out of 26 claims based on a review by the National Advertising Division -- you can search online for details.

But this was after I tried it myself. I got the biggest one, the Molekule Pro, to see if it could reduce indoor VOCs in my home. I ran the Molekule at maximum fan speed for two hours while monitoring VOCs using a meter in the same room, and there was no reduction at all in VOCs.

That's what led me to discover via online research that their advertising claims around "innovative science" are all garbage and this is really just a weak regular filter with a shiny metal body around it, looks nice like a MacBook, but less effective at regular air filtering than competitors 1/3 it's price, and does absolutely nothing for VOCs, despite their false advertising.

Scott: I was skeptical but this product really delivers! Setup was easy, but did take a couple of resets -- so don't get discouraged. It works beautifully. Eventually. In times of normal operation, it's very quiet in "Normal" mode and undetectable (to me) in "Quiet" mode. It's when cooking begins that the jet engine fires up. It is SO LOUD that I can't hear myself think; however, I have not had a single smoke alarm incident when it's roaring away. (My smoke detectors are WAY over sensitive). My Molekule has even kicked into a higher gear when a neighbor stopped by wearing too much perfume! Loved that. The expense of the unit is extreme but so is its performance compared to the many other filters I've owned. The air in my home smells sweet now. I worry about the expense of the replacement filters but the current filter is still at 86% after about a month of continuous running so I'm on pace to have to replace it only 2x/year. Not too bad -- especially given wildfires and pathogens these days. Highly recommend. I just wish it were financially accessible for more people. I believe this thing will make a big difference in my health.
