(that's about the only filter missing in the Ion- it has 20!) I've
sent my Ion in twice for faulty knobs. First time they sent me a new
unit that was worse than the first. Second time they did total
knob/button replacement surgery,and now it is perfect. The question
is how many faulty units are lurking on warehouse shelves. The new
ones shipping seem to have the problems solved.
