So it should go without saying we love HEPA. Our vacuum, which is used every other day, has a HEPA filter. Our central air conditioning and heating unit also has one. And now, there is an air purifier that offers not only HEPA but is lead-free and certified not only but the Environmental Protection Agency but also by the U.S. Department of Energy.

I show you the Alen Paralda HEPA UV Air Purifier!

For asthmatics and allergy-sufferers, this thing has also been listed as the Respiratory Management’s Product of the Year. I drool, people, I drool. I wish I had one of these after reading review after review singing it’s praises.

The only reason I do not have one yet – the $499 price tag. Looks like I must long a little bit longer…

The amazing folding bicycle!

Lightweight, easy to store, and commuter-friendly as it folds up into a manageable size to fit in a trunk, next to you on the train, or in the hall closet once you get home. Bike commuting made easy? Yes please! Good for the wallet, the ozone layer, and the waistline.

Just beware, my dears, at $699 for the Commuter TX model it is pricier than a standard bicycle. However, if it can get you to bike to work, the store, a friend’s house? Well then, you’ll probably have it pay for itself within a few months of cut commuting costs alone, minus the price of the new pants you’ll need in that smaller size.
