NatureFresh Air Purifier Reviews
NatureFresh Air Purifier charcoal bags are air purifying bags containing activated bamboo charcoal that the seller claims can purify the air in a house, car, bathrooms, and other areas that require the removal of foul or strong odors.
How Does It Work?
Activated bamboo charcoal bamboo is claimed by the company to be an effective agent for trapping allergens, bacteria, and other particles in the air when air passes through the pores of the charcoal.
Additionally, the charcoal is claimed to absorb moisture, preventing the growth of mold and bacteria. This moisture absorbing property of activated charcoal is what keeps foul odors from forming by removing the environment for bacteria, mold, and mildew to thrive in.
NatureFreshAirPurifier.com states that when the Nature Fresh bags are placed in a desired area, they work automatically in the background. Then once a month the bags have to be left out in the sun to be dried out and refreshed.
NatureFresh state that the charcoal bags should last two years, after which you can simply dispose of it naturally in your yard/garden.
Bamboo charcoal has been scientifically proven to reduce harmful chemicals including formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene and chloroform gases emitted from such items as paint, carpeting, air fresheners, chemical cleaners, rubber and plastic.

The Bottom Line
The idea behind using activated charcoal in your home is not new. Many natural living publications recommend it for a variety of uses.
The concept is that since activated charcoal has been treated with oxygen the process makes it more porous, thus giving it the ability to trap bad odors.
However this strategy has its limitations, for instance if you’re using it to treat mold you must first remove it all with bleach type cleaners or it will keep coming back.
Ultimately if you’re interested in trying this method you can make your own version very easily. Activated charcoal is sold in various places like pet stores, home improvement stores and online.
Once you have it simply make a container for it and experiment placing it in different areas. This way you can try it without dealing with a company that has bad online reviews.

Forces you to buy more while ordering.
SCAM
SCAM. I ordered and they say they sent it out and it was delivered. However, I reached out to them since I did not receive it. They told me to talk to my postal service to get it back as it was sent to the incorrect address.
BIG SCAM!
Nature Fresh - Items Never Received!! Scam!!
SCAM
Wow, what a dishonest company! I asked for
"buy 3/get 2 free". I am now getting a total
of 15 bags, paying for 12 BAGS! I will be reporting
your company to the Better Business Bureau immediately as well as my credit credit card company.
Yes, they worked for me
DampRid
Since it's just activated charcoal just go to Lowes and buy a tub of DampRid for $5, put some perfume in it you want.
I received the 3 bags as promised about 2 years ago, then got an email saying that I was on Auto-Renew and that the credit card had already been charged for $370.00 and would receive 10 bags soon. Tried to reply using a return email address and given phone number, but neither were valid. The company should not be trusted!
Like you I receive an email from "Nature Fresh LLC" which is Not "NatureFresh Air Purifier" on 11-04-2022. The scam email said I had ordered 12 set of Nature fresh bag for $435.64 and payment was confirmed. I called the number on the email, 1-805-852-1664, to check this out. I was told that to be refunded they needed me to go to a special web site to fill out a cancellation form or if I didn't it would take them 10-12 days for them to do it. It felt weird. I said for them to do it. I immediately checked on the web and found that it was a possible scam. To see, I called and spoke with NatureFresh and was told it was a scam trying to get more of my information and they, NatureFresh would never send out automatic reorders. We will see if I get charged for the money. Be careful on who you blame.
I just received the same email. I thought while on the phone with them, what legitimate company would need me to download a file to request a refund? I told the service person that and he said " it's not like I'm over here trying to access your information. I told to him the file says virus detected. I ended the conversation immediately, did not download the file, and immediately checked for charges, no charge. Heart racing!
Waste of money
They have worked brilliantly for me in two areas that previously, at the end of Winter, were plastered in black mold - so I am grateful!
They do not send the goods
Paid for the bags but never received them!!
Don’t buy!
Regards Ann from Sweden
This Company is a Ripoff
Never received the products that I ordered. When I contacted the company 4 months + later they informed me my order was returned to them! Nice of them to tell me ..I insisted they refund me the $189.68 I spent ..they only refunded $162.86..RIPOFF!
Unreliable : paid but never received the bags
Nature Fresh Complaint.
Very, very disappointed with these. Ordered 3 received 2 free. Had put them out in the full sun for 2 days and brought in place 2 in one room and never made a bit of difference (at least nothing that you could really notice)
Tried several times and in different rooms(especially in basement where there is like a stale smell constant(basement smell) Placed several in a littler larger family room and never noticed a difference.
Not worth the money I paid $92.24 for total order. Only wish I would have requested a refund (Would still like if possible). Don't remember their return policy. Really feel like it is a big scam! Sincerely,
Diane, Mn 56367
This seems an attempt at product assassination and recommendation of alternative products without commenting on their problems ..ehonus paying sho for this review..medical researchers have to state their sponsored or conflicts (Not applicable in covid though) ..what's your benefits ...?
Where's the product made?
Little details give the scam away
I have the same message as the rude millennial but in a nicer way. Directed toward the elderly or those unfamiliar with internet shopping: If you see an ad selling something that seems too good to be true, close it.
Don’t purchase it. This ad is so clearly a scam. Notice how all the “reviews” are positive. All the reviewers have their photos next to their names. If you are going to leave a review somewhere, are you going to take the time to make sure you attach your photo when you register to leave a review? Maybe one or two people will, but everyone??
And notice how the photos often look like models? I don’t mean beautiful supermodels. I mean nice-looking people with perfect teeth all smiling — like its a commercial. Because it is. That’s how you know they’re not real reviews, and therefore, probably a scam. Watch for little things like that.
I'm commenting on “Notareal P”…you are rude and apparently raised by apes!! People under 40 now are generally idiots! I am 73 and perfectly capable of buying or not buying something on line without the help of an idiot. Believe it or not I have been using computers since they came out….do most of mine now on an iPad Pro….and have never once asked a 40 year or younger person if I should order something….shame on you for being one of those idiots….get off the internet! We don’t need your comments… don’t care how old you are!!!!!
Well spoken!
See the disclaimer . it tells that the photos are all models.
HEY read this you plebs and pensioners
I don't mean to be disparaging or insulting to you all, but you are not fit to use the internet if you made this purchase.
I'm sitting at my desk and i see this ridiculous ad, I clicked on it because i (like a normal person) never click on such truly pathetic ads and was curious just this one time.
It leaves me with several questions
Who believes this? / Is this targeted as the mental deficient?
Why would there be a mock news article about this product? (No author)
Why would they feel the need to be some dramatic in their claims and stories?
Why would they need to doctor images to show "dust"?
I would say "use your head" to decipher whether ads or fake or not but i can only assume that "your head" isn't functioning if you have come this far.
My sincere advice to you all is ask someone young about your purchase before you make it. I do not believe that any competent individual under 40 would even momentarily be fooled by such low rate scams.
If that isn't an option use website's like reviewopedia, Quora and which.com.
1. Which.com is the most reliable but may have a fee to use.
2. Quora is 2nd best as it has a voting system and comments are logged to users.
3. Reviewopedia is a last resort open forum, from which you should analyse as many reviews as possible to get an idea of the product.
Stay safe you plebs and pensioners.
Your review is very insulting but also funny in an ironic way. The next time you go ranting about the lack of intelligence in people you have never met, you may want to get somebody smarter than yourself to proofread it for spelling and grammar mistakes. Finding somebody who is smarter than you shouldn't be very difficult at all. But your personality would indicate that it might not be so easy to find somebody who would be willing to help you. So, good luck with that.
You must be one of these millennials or progressive thinkers.... I totally agree with you that some of the ads are extremely lame and targeting the elderly to think that their children and grandchildren will miraculously visit them so they will no longer worry about never seeing them again...
Total BS, however, activated bamboo charcoal is scientifically proven to perform all of the benefits that the product is claiming. So don't go on about how the product is a scam and the people that would actually purchase it are mentally deficient. The FACTS are that this actually does perform the functions that the ad says it does.
Not had such a good laugh for a long time :) Thank you lol
rude
One day you will be elderly and then you will realize that you as a youth were rude. And remember it's NOT just the elderly who are scammed.. young ones too have fallen for other scams. Now I hope you will get some wisdom in you so you stop judging so harshly.
Agree with GlyndionAine. Why take the time to write a disparaging review that is mostly aimed at elderly people? There is no need for that. We need more kindness on the internet. Not less. On the other hand thank you for your thoughts on the product.
Do Not Use
Charcoal air cleaning process
Air must contact charcoal to remove odors or gasses. Air can't move through tightly packed charcoal in the bag but only touch what it can do just inside the fabric. Powered fans blowing through filter media which will catch dust and have good contact with the air flowing past charcoal is the optimal technology.
I see nothing that will attract dust to remove it from the air.
Thanks for this highly useful information.
ORDER Not Received and customer service is NOT able to assist
I have been on the phone with customer service and was told that they cannot contact FEDEX because they cannot make any outgoing calls.
FEDEX just keeps telling me that the package was left on my door. Filed a claim 9/1/20 and was told someone would call me within 48 hours. That didn't happen so I called again. 9/8/20 was told someone would call me that day by 5pm. That didn't happen. On phone again!
Calling bank to reverse the charges.
Buying Nature Fresh Bags
I purchased some Nature Fresh Bags and they offered a free gift with my order, but they never indicated that I would have to pay shipping on the free gift!! When my order was processed, the shipping went from $10.35 to $20.69.
If Nature Fresh offers you a free gift don't take it, because it will cost you. When I called the company to find out why my shipping fee doubled, I was told it was the shipping, handling and tax for the free gift. I told the Representative that it can't be for tax, because I was charge separately for Tax on the order. I don't trust this company so I canceled my entire order.
pissed off
call FedEx and file a claim 1-800-463-3339
Scammed again!!
Ordered this online and the supplier stated it was delivered by FED-EX on July 23, 2020 and gave me a tracking number. I confirmed the FED-EX tracking but never received the package ordered.
I tried to put a FED-EX claim on the package but could not complete the information required on the company's address, so its pending their follow up to put a claim on the missing package or refund me. I doubt I will ever get the order or my monies back.
Totally dissatisfied. S.Lee
My PayPal account got charged anyway. No confirmation e-mail with shipping info. I called their number and asked about the status of my order. They said it will arrive Thursday. I ordered Saturday and called Them Monday. I wish I would have read these reviews before hitting the PayPal button. We’ll se what happens Thursday.
