MSFULLSEA Laminar Flow Hood HEPA Filter Flow Hood Mycology HEPA Air filtration Fan Unit for Mushroom Mycology & Phone LCD Repair Laboratory Tissue Culture

Works extremely well for the intended purposes. Have not had any issues while using the flow hood. Much easier to use than a still box.

It works well for a hobby like orchid seed sowing. It is not big, but it does the job

Works great for mycology, at first I was reluctant to get it due to some reviews but pulled the trigger and I have a 0% contamination on agar plates(pour and transfers). For me, I wipe the whole unit down with 70% isopropyl alcohol and let it run for like 5-10mins on the lowest setting and it works great. This is also accompanied with good sterile tek(gloves, mask, wipe down work area and disinfect the air). Good cheap alternative to a flow hood, which I’m still going to buy when I get to that point(for more work space) but for now this does the job. Would definitely recommend.

A little smaller than I expected. Not a true hepa filter.

its really just way way too small for tissue culture. And one of the screws I hand tightened snapped off. Overall, not very impresses.

I used this in mycology and it works. The air is a bit more turbulent than I would have wanted but the price is great. I am curious if there is a way to add a pre-filter in order to reduce the air flow enough to create a steady laminar flow. I also need a wire rack to lift the plates about 3 inches above the bottom. that is where I found the closest steady air flow that doesn't kill the flame. I have a still air box for my agar plates and I also have this. This has so far been a great help and my 20 plates have been clean. No issues. Yay.

This cabinet does work, but it is not a laminar flow hood. Do not purchase it expecting to achieve the same levels of clean air as a true laminar flow hood, which costs considerably more. Not suitable for mycology work.

Not laminar flow, but I did modify it to be laminar. When testing the unit, my roommate noted that there was air coming out the top...I didn't believe them, and held a lighter up, then burned my hepa and part of the prefilter.... Ok, so they are half right upon further inspection. The DC fans have a large gap between the fan blade top and the duct. I replaced the fans with Noctua high static pressure fans, this helped a lot. Then I was sitting looking at the unit, trying to figure out how to get less turbulent airflow across the work area. It occurred to me that I could relocate the HEPA to the front oriented vertically I tried it and got a smooth flame bent at 45 degrees...just need a bit of RTV to seal the top and a little bit of higher work space above the blue silicone mat. If I had to do it again, I would just make my own unit....but this is pretty decent for small work area. Heres the link for the replacement filter in case anyone needs it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095WH84GB
