I did, and the air went from very unhealthy to moderate to good in the space of a half hour.
I also had some trouble getting the Airmega back online after having it unplugged for a couple days.
While it's nice to know my air is pretty clean, that price is a lot to pay for something that will sit idle — and take up a decent chunk of space — for most of the day.
