Levoit - Vital 200S-P

You don't need "true" HEPA, it's not necessary for home pollution. I have 3 levoits and have personally CADR-tested them, they clean the air just fine. The problem is more towards arguably less than ethical marketing if they claim H13 but in reality it's not, but the products are ok.

Yup, I try to always keep mine at speeds 3-4, sometimes 2 when my ears or dry eyes need a break, lol. I wish there was a speed between 2 and 3 because yeah, even 2 feels pretty useless. I do like the units though and I was also thinking of getting the smoke/toxin filters so that's good to hear it's been working for you

We don't use central air in my apartment and our purifiers have been helping a lot. We got two Levoit Vital 200s on sale on Amazon for $159 each

Some of your comments on this sub are actually a big reason why I decided to get the levoits, so thank you! I do really like the units and they've made a noticeable difference. When you say it won't get rid of dust, that's just how all purifiers are, right? Or do you specifically mean just the levoits?

Used qubo levoit and both were trash. Now I ordered Eureka Forbes. Let's see how that performs

I pine sol or fabuloso everything. I also have the clorox urine spray (I know its peroxide but I like the smell it leaves). I also put powder on carpets before i clean/vacuum or get them cleaned. The air purifier doesn't do much except remove particulates. We have a levoit but it's meh.

Highly recommend Levoit! I have 2 large dogs in a 44sqm condo. When my parents would visit, they usually complain na amoy aso yung condo. Now they say wala na amoy. We have the bigger one. Helps with the fur also na palipad lipad lang.

I think it's best to purchase both an air purifier and dehumidifier for that area where there is mold. Hopefully that will work for you. I have levoit air purifier for the bedrooms. And we had the mold experts provide us with heavy duty dehumidifiers. (No longer needed, hunting a regular one now)

I think this gets overstated. The Core series pre-filter just comes with the filter. It's not much harder to vacuum those than the separate ones in the flat panel units. I say this an owner of Cores, Vitals and an EverestAir.

Used it all night. Small room but still i couldn't see any difference in the air quality. Even doors were shut so no outside pollution too.

We have that one on our main floor (1300 sq ft house) and it works great. It even helps filter while cooking. We also have the 200S in our bedroom and if memory serves me right they are fairly close in power. Both great units

My Levoits have lasted for years and work well

We have a 2500 sq ft home so we have several air purifiers. I went off wirecutter's list and got Coway Airmega for the rooms with higher ceilings and Levoit for the kid rooms and office (where the litter box is). We have had them for a year and I'm happy with them. They've significantly cut down on daycare illness transmission within our household. Instead of all 4 of us getting sick it's 1 kid and sometimes 1 parent per illness.

I have 2 Wyze Hepa Filters. Find them very good. They display the air quality too so you can see what they're doing! I have tried levoit. They were ok but don't live long. I think the important thing is to have an air quality monitor or the filter should display air quality

I personally hate the sound of Levoit devices and the cheap build quality.

I have bought 2 levoits and have been nothing but disappointed. They run good for a few days then on both my units, the motor starts getting a bit noisy, to the point I can't use it while in the room with it. If you insist on getting it I'd at-least get it on Amazon for easy returns.

How is a levoit only better for hair and dander? Hepa is hepa and vital series should be just as effective as the others. Core series is inferior.

\+1 for Levoit. Haven't had a single problem and we have 3 of them.

Yup we have several, one in our living room, one downstairs, and one in our bedroom. The Winix brand is good and sometimes Costco has them on sale. In our bedroom we have a smaller Levoit. It helps keep the air fresh, helps manage cat hair and dust, and of course is nice when it's smoky out 🥲

I bought two Levoit Vital 200S-P's for my 1 bed apartment mainly due to smoke, incense, cooking etc from my neighbors. I know Levoit is a somewhat controversial choice but overall from my understanding, yes it's bad they lied about HEPA but apparently it's mostly a marketing term and their filters still perform about the same. It was a good price and many people on this sub do like them, so I got them. If I had more money, sure I would've splurged on something else. But I'm wondering if maybe I should've purchased a different brand, or if I'm just expecting too much. They have definitely helped, I have one placed in the living/kitchen area which is quite large so I don't expect it to fully clean that area, but it makes a difference. When our neighbors smoke, PM2.5 levels used to go up to 15-20 in there, now it's anywhere between 4-9ish, usually below 6 though. Bedroom used to hit 15 but now it hovers anywhere between 2-6, usually below 4. When they're not smoking the whole apartments sits at 0-1. Our unit is 750 sq ft, most of that is the kitchen/living area so I expect the bedroom to get the best purification. Should I be expecting it to drop to 0-1 in the bedroom or is it reasonable for it to usually be around 3-4 when they're smoking? Not trying to stress over numbers but I always notice the smell before I even check the monitor, so I'm just trying to address it the best I can. It's been better since I got the purifiers but I do still notice it. Would a Coway or some other reasonably priced unit perform better for smoke, or does it sound like my Levoits are working as intended? (edit: I also understand these units aren't going to help much with smells which is ok, mainly just wondering about particulate levels)

Here is my matchup with your list. Levoit 200 Samsung Smartthings Dishwasher Trane/Nexia Thermostat Reolink Doorbell Roborock Vacuum They all have been great with HA

I've used Levoit multiple times for a more economical version, but I love my IQAir GC MultiGas XE (I have MCS) if you can afford it.

Same experience as you within the last month. One of the things you need to understand upfront is that there are people with deep pockets who fixate on things like this and become obsessed with finding "the best." That is something that will never happen, but in the meantime, this sub has put together a pretty stellar list of "great" filters/purifiers. Personally, I went with a Levoit Vital 200S-P. It was on the higher end of my price range at first, but I left it in my Amazon cart for later while I thought about whether I really wanted to invest in it. And then Amazon dropped the price by about $30-$35 during that time. Amazon sales tactic? Probably. But it made enough of a difference that I decided to go for it. For the last 3 days, I've been very happy.

If your home was next to other homes that burned down, then first have to access smoke damage inside. Whether it's serious enough having to tear out drywall and carpet (if have it). Or if repainting all walls will do it. Otherwise, have to deep clean the house. My dad's house was a block away from where the fire stop in November's Mountain fire. No structural or visible smoke damage inside, but the whole house smelled like a post camp fire. Me and my brother spent two full days deep cleaning. Washed all the windows and screens. Washed all bedding and clothes. Cleaned all the base boards. Washed couch cushions covers. Vacuumed the carpet and drapes multiple times. After still had a faint smell of smoke left. I bought two LEVOIT air purifiers on Amazon and were delivered even with his neighborhood having a police checkpoint. Couple days later the smell was gone. Most of the result was from deep cleaning the house though

Sorry yeah, I meant the Vital 200s. Forgot there's also a 200 core
