Guest guest Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 , Two years ago I had one of those Eco Quest air purifiers in my apt., and after it was on for less than 15 minutes, I started having trouble breathing. I turned it off, called the salesman to come and get it out of my apt., and to this day, I won't even go into the apt. of my friend who lives upstairs, because she actually bought one from that guy, and thinks it's great.
