Product review: CritterZone Air Purifier | thepupdiary.com
25 FebWe won a cool CritterZone Air Purifier at the recent Doggies and Tiaras Pageant over Westminster weekend. We bought $20 in raffle tickets to support Inky Blue Sea Rescue and ended up winning two great items!
The CritterZone is a compact unit that plugs into an outlet and “continually produces a charged flow” to clean the air and eliminate odors. We were a bit skeptical and really had no idea what to expect. Ginger and Cubby are sugar and spice and all things nice, so do we really need this? BOL. We don’t like perfumes or chemicals and tend to rely on natural cleaners and open windows, but we decided to give this a try. The filterless unit comes ready to go — just plug it in and put it on the highest setting of three. (The manufacturer recommends the high setting when you first use the unit.) We left the house for a few hours and returned to find a noticeable difference in the air quality. All of the doggie (and other) smells were replaced by a neutral odor. Yes, there was still an odor in the air, but it didn’t really smell like anything. Maybe we were just smelling the “charged flow” that was circulating through the room? There were certainly no perfume or chemical odors. Just an undefinable smell.
We are giving our unit to a friend who has two indoor cats and litter boxes to get her opinion. She has tried numerous products without success so we are curious to see how she likes the CritterZone.
Product information
Cost: $89.95
Where to purchase: critterzoneusa.com
Description: The CritterZone Air Purifier naturally breaks down odors and knocks out dander and dust.
Bottom line: If you have odors that can’t be controlled with other natural cleaners, we would definitely give it a try. (We are waiting on a friend’s review with cat litterbox odors.)
Dear diary. It’s me, Cubby | thepupdiary.com
22 FebHello world! I’m a SWD (single white dog) who likes to have fun. My mom started this blog so my big sis and I could share our antics, our adventures, and our (BOL) wisdom. We like to live each day to the fullest. We make a pawfect family unit. Well except for our bratty “sister” Cubby Junior who gets to attend events when dogs are not invited. Luckily that is not very often!
We had a bit of a scare today when we saw that The Honest Kitchen recalled some of its food. Luckily it was not the variety that we eat, but I still worry about that. Eating food, after all, is one of my favorite pastimes. My mom better get busy with her homemade treat baking!
My visit with A Fair Shake for Youth was canceled this week due to school vacation. I love visiting with the kids and I love being part of an animal-assisted therapy team! Last night we had a committee meeting for The Good Dog Foundation’s “A Fetching Affair” gala. We met at a beautiful townhouse on the upper east side. The May 30 event is coming together nicely and should be pawsome. Lots of fun surprises in store! After the meeting, mom headed to a fundraiser for Rescuzilla animal rescue. The event was held at a bar called The CubbyHole and I was not even invited. Grrrrr! I heard there was a good crowd including the lovely Jennifer Celebrity Catwalk (psst – she is looking for doggy models for her Paws in the City fashion show on June 1) and Josh and Jennifer from That Touch of Pit. Mom is off to another human-only event this evening to support Animal Care & Control – K9Cupid. At least she usually wins something for us in raffle prizes. Last night she won a beautiful custom embroidered item from MonkeyandSquirrel. I hope tonight she wins some food! Or some toys I can destroy!
We have a super busy weekend planned with the Canine Couture Fashion Show, an Oscar party, and playdates with friends. We hope your pup diary is filled with great plans, too!
Cubby kisses to all!
