Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Purchased this to replace a "shark" that was pathetic. I thought at $ 99.00 it would actually clean. Not so, if the item (more like crumb or piece of cereal) is over a 1/2 inch it won't pick it up. Also it does not clean along edges (and i thought the shark was pathetic, at least it actually swept along the edge under the counter) so it leaves a 1/2 inch of crumbs and dirt around the corner of the floor under the counter. It looks like I didn't even spot vacume. As for the UV light, I'm not a scientist so I can not tell you if it actually kills germs and bacteria, but I think it's an expensive light on the front of a poorly working vacume. Yeiks!

What is UVC Light? Ultraviolet light is a natural part of everyday sunlight, and it is an essential part of the light spectrum. UVC light is known as the germicidal bandwidth and is a proven antimicrobial agent used in a wide variety of purification and sanitization processes. Just outside the visible light spectrum, UVC light has been used safely in hospitals, clinics and laboratories for more than 60 years. UVC sanitizing light has been effectively used to sterilize surgical equipment, water and the air in operating rooms, and in germicidal lamps to disinfect various types of product containers in other industries. Verilux is proud to bring this proven technology into the home.
The Science of UVC Light -- How Does it Work? Ultraviolet rays with wavelengths shorter than 300 nm are extremely effective in killing bacteria and viruses. Short-wave ultraviolet light (UVC) works by destroying DNA of microorganisms like bacteria, mold, viruses, and dust mites. These compounds break down with exposed to high-intensity UV at 240 to 290 nm. UVC's effectiveness is directly related to the intensity and exposure time.
UV rays must strike the contaminants directly in order to penetrate the microorganism and break down its molecular bonds. This bond breakage translates into cellular or genetic damage, rendering the germs harmless by robbing them of their ability to reproduce.
Spring Cleaning without the Chemicals According to Verilux, your home may contain more deadly chemicals than most laboratories did just over 50 years ago. Many of the contents of common cleaners in your home have been found to be extremely hazardous to the health of children and adults. The all-purpose cleaners you use to clean counters and floors can contain the following chemicals:
Ammonia: Known to cause kidney and liver damage
Butyl cellusolve: Neurotoxin that rapidly penetrates the skin
Ortho phenyl phenol: Severe eye and skin irritant
Diethanolamine (DEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA): Reacts with nitrates in other cleansers to develop carcinogenic nitrosamines
Coal tar: Known carcinogen often used to color or tint products
Paraben: Hormone-disrupting chemical; used as a preservative
And when you spray air fresheners around your home, they often contain:
Formaldehyde: Highly toxic, known carcinogen
Ethoxylated nonyl phenol: Skin contact can cause swelling, burning, peeling, circulatory collapse, coma or death
Naphthalene: Suspected carcinogen
Xylene: Neurotoxin
Butane gas: Used as a propellant; neurotoxin
Paradichlorobenzene: Carcinogen often present in solid deodorizers
If you want to minimize your family's exposure to these types of chemicals, switch to the chemical-free way to sanitize your home with Verilux's clean powerful UVC light.
