 Does its job - but an interesting issueDec 05, 2009
By jimj
I bought this from amazon, based on all the good reviews. I was trying to get the smoking smell out of my car. This product is petty impressive in that, as soon as I turn it ON there seemed to be a magical "no smell" environment (at least when I sit on the drivers seat). So I must say that the product works very well. The issue came when I used it for my 30 minutes commute back and forth from work and saw that I had a persistent sore throat and throat irritation in the evening. I then read about this online and found that a side effect of a product like this that releases a lot of ozone, is that it can cause throat irritation. So I have decided to keep it and use it only when its really required - I cannot keep it ON all the time in my car. So in short, while this product does its work petty well, people who may be sensitive to sore throat and throat dryness etc may need to think twice before getting it.

I have owned this for almost a year now. I don't use it very often, but it lies in my glove box for use some times. I have grown used to the smoke smell in my car :).
I want to point out that this device does not remove the smoking smell from the car itself. It just creates this zone of "no smell" while its turned on.

 I was a skeptic!Jan 22, 2010
By John O.
I bought a used GMC Envoy 2 weeks ago. It was obvious that the previous owner was a smoke. Although the smell was not overbearing (probably kept the window open while smoking), it was still there.
My first (and cheapest) attempt at removing the smell was to place 2 small bowls of vinegar in the car while I was not using it. This helped for a short period of time, but the smell would slowly creep back in after a little while.
My second (and most expensive) attempt was to use the Gone Smoke "fogger" product that I had bought on Amazon. I set up two of these cans and ran my air conditioner on full blast and set it to circulate the air internally for a few minutes (per the instructions). I came out the next morning and found that the smoke smell was gone...but seemed to be more covered up than destroyed. There was a faint smell but I just couldn't put my finger on it. Regardless, after a few days, the smoke smell was coming back.
My last attempt was the Wagan Car Ionizer. I plugged the unit in about 5:00pm on a monday night. I came out to my car the next morning and could not believe the fresh smell (or lack there of) in my car. It was almost weird (in a good way). The best way I can describe it is that my car has a "new car smell" withouth the new car smell. I know that makes no sense but it is the only way I can describe it. I also noticed instantly how much easier it was to breathe.
I have now had the unit in my car for 4 days and it smells as fresh as the day I put it in. Of course, this is still in teh very early going, but I feel confident that the smell will nto return. The only question is how long the unit will last. But, hopefully by that point, the "stink particles" would have been totally irradicated. If worse comes rto worse, I'll just buy another unit. @ $10.99/ea, I have absolutely no problem doing this once a year.
2 final notes: 1.) I have not experienced any of teh sore throat issues that others have described. But again, it has only been 4 days. 2.) The blue power light is a little overbearing but nothing a small piece of black electrical tape can't take care of.

Personal Gas Oders GONE !Apr 01, 2009
By Karen
"Karen"
A family member has personal gas problems that leave the car smelling horrible no matter how often it is aired out. This product WORKS! Drawback may be you can't use deoderizers because this device will make them a waste of money. You won't need the smell good stuff because your car will no longer have any bad smells. I give this a very large A++.

 WOW!Nov 29, 2010
By J. DeFelice
I read all the reviews for this item, and didn't believe it could work. So I decided to buy one and try it myself, since the price was right. First, I tried it overnight in my car, which was smelling a little "dull" after the hot summer. The next day, I did notice the "ozone" smell, but otherwise, the car... well... didn't smell! Next, we put it in my mother's car, which stunk since she bought it due to dogs, cigars, and a water leak. Someone had put nasty grape stuff in the car to mask the odors. We were shocked that after only one night, most of the stink was gone! Third, we used it overnight in my boyfriend's Mustang, which got a little flooded a few years ago and had a slight musty odor. So far, so good! That means this thing worked in three cars with three different smells.
I don't know how it works, but it works.

gets rid of new car smellSep 18, 2009
By lynnLA
I am really sensitive to smells, especially in cars. This ionizer did a very good job at neutralizing the new car smell in the car that I bought a week before getting the ionizer. It also neutralized the new floor mats I put in a day later. I will definitely be keeping this in my car for as long as I have the car.
