We're thinking about buying a Hunter. I was wondering if anyone has any actual experiences with Hunter filters or with HEPA filters in general. My wife's sinuses have been going haywire since we moved in this place, and we think it's residual from the previous occupants' cat (I hate those animals).

I have one on my vacuum as well. It works extremely well sucking up dust and floating cat dander in the air.

We put in a 3M filter in the AC intake which helped me a great deal, but the cat was concentrated in the MBR area, which is nice and helpful when trying to sleep (only option for our bed, too, since the second BR is so small).

My aunt uses a HEPA filter on her vacuum and in her room as well, and it has been working well for her
