What's great about it: Excellent price along with excellent air cleaning
What's not so great: Possible hassle of returning if sensor not work
1) The potential hassle of dealing with a refurbished unit is real, as the other reviewer reported. However, considering that this is an excellent air purifier, and the price is also excellent, the possible hassle of having to return is worth it.
2) This is the only way to get this unit anymore, it is out of production.
3) I already owned 2 of the Sharp FP-P40CX for over 2 years with no problems and excellent results.
4) The FP-P40CX refurbhished DOES come with remote.
5) The FP-P40CX is an excellent air cleaner, in my opinion and others, the best in the mid ($100-500) range.
6) Search Internet, can replace carbon filter for less than $10.
7) The FP-P40CX is VERY quiet in normal mode, does an outstanding job of removing odors, and is very sensitive.
8) Upon purchase of this refurbished unit, set it all up, and immediately test the air quality sensor. I did this by spraying some carpet pet cleaner, which was 99% iso-alcohol. I sprayed about one foot in front of the Sharp, in a couple of minutes it kicked into cleaning mode, sensor went orange or red. I knew it worked. Could use perfume or anything with iso-alcohol in it. If it does not work, then return, get another one that does.

What's great about it: It looks nice on the outside
What's not so great: It does not work properly
Our son owns the next model up from this one, and it has always worked well for him. When Sharp discontinued this model and the one he owns, I was happy to find the refurbished one here at Best Buy. I purchased it, but when I got it home and tried it, I began to notice it was not taking odors out of the air. I made hash browns with onions one Saturday morning for breakfast, and even with the Sharp Air Purifier going full speed, the house smelled like onions throughout the weekend. I finally called Sharp and spoke with a rep, who determined that a sensor was apparently not working, as the light was not coming on when the unit was exposed to odors. Much to my regret I had to return the unit. I thought about trying another one, but do not know what my chances are on getting a refurbished one that works. This was my first experience with purchasing a refurbished product, and unfortunately, it was not a good one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
