I bought one of these in Feb 11 and had to buy another one 2 months later as my 10 year old liberated the first one for his own room. I suffer from very bad hayfever and during spring and summer even with the windows closed I generally have trouble sleeping and wake up sneezing and snuffling. Leaving the air purifier on low overnight has made a big difference, though I still have some symptoms. It is not totally silent, but quiet enough so that I no longer notice it though my wife gets irritated by the noise sometimes and asks me to turn if off in the wee hours so if you have a serious problem with noise try one of the "no fan" ceramic air purifiers. I also have one of those, and it no doubt helps as well though these fanless ones are tricky to quantify re benefits.
I find it also works on bad smells, and can easily notice the difference in air quality if I turn it up high for a few hours. My kids are more sensitive than me and claim to notice a difference even if it's on low.
I give it 5 stars, my wife would probably only give it 4 because of the slight noise. My kids would also give it 5 stars. If you are overly sensitive to dust/pollen/spores and not overly senstive to noise this is a perfect choice.
