Air-Purifiers-America.com says the Alen T300 is very quiet, and they like that the Alen T300 has features that are more often found on more expensive air purifiers: a UV lamp for bacterial control (although the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says this feature is usually ineffective) and activated carbon filters for removing odors (which are relatively inexpensive to replace). Reviewers say this air purifier is especially good at removing pet dander, pollen and mold spores. It covers only 300 square feet, compared to 800 square feet for another Alen model, the Alen A350 (*Est. $400). One expert says it works best in small rooms of about 100 square feet. Overall, reviews recommend other choices -- including the Austin Air HealthMate (*Est. $490).
We were only able to find two professional reviews of the Alen T300 Tower Air Purifier, but they're good ones: a short blurb on Air-Purifiers-America.com based on this site's rigorous testing, and a thorough description by the enthusiast site Air-Purifier-Power.com. The T300 also receives comments from a handful of owners posting on Amazon.com. It has not been tested at ConsumerReports.org.

Review: Alen T300 UV Tower Air Purifier
Reviewer Ed Sherbenou doesn't test the Alen T300, but he does a good job of describing its features. Although he dismisses tower air purifiers as representing "style over substance," he has mostly good things to say about this machine, and notes that it will work best only in small (100 square foot or so) rooms.

More than 20 owners post reviews at Amazon.com about the Alen T300 Tower Air Purifier, and they're mostly positive. However, one reviewer complains of poor customer service from Alen after the UV lamp failed, and another laments the price of the UV lamps, suggesting an alternative and less expensive brand to replace them.
