"They are all basically noiseless. ... They're sooooo silent. ... The only time it runs is when we cook or something or I light a black wick and it turns on"
"It's also super quiet (I sleep with one right next to me)"
"quiet (both other units were a good bit louder); I sleep with this on every single night"

"The dog smell is already gone after a couple hours"
"It has a nice pelleted carbon filter which is great for odors. ... I’m a weed smoker and my Winix has made a night and day difference compared to the Airmega."
"When I have guests over, they have always commented on how they can't smell the cats and ask how I do that in such a small space lol."

"They do a good job of removing smoke from the room."
"They are also great to have during annual west coast wild fire smoke season and keep particulates in the house undetectable even when it has been horrid outside."
"I plugged in this new bigger Levoit and ran out to check on a job for an hour and when I got back the entire house (two story, 2,300sf) was absolutely clear of any smoke smell."

"I have a levoit and it’s amazing. ... I have the large one in my bedroom which isn’t that big but I have 5 dogs and it alleviates so much dust. ... That’s the only room in my house that I breathe the absolute best in."

"the medify one sounds horrible- it has a weird high pitch and i can’t stand it even on the very lowest setting. ... i actually sent it back and they replaced it and the second one sounds the same."
"The only smaller air purifier I have is the $200 Conway in my kitchen. Its like a jet engine when on high speed. That's OK when I've burnt something. But there is no way people are running it at that noise level in general use."
"And it’s noisy as hell when I kick it up a notch."

"About a year and the right bud would last about 15 minutes on a full charge."
"I've had them for a few years and now the battery doesn't last for more than 40 mins, so looking for a different model."
"And then during a race in September the mid sole of one pulled right off with less than 200 km on them."

"The Pro X for example is marketed at over 4,000 square feet but it's only one air change. That won't be enough to help with odors."
"My Levoit Core 200s is advertised on Amazon as providing coverage for a 1,000 square foot room. In reality, it *could change the air in a 1,000 square foot space but only once in an hour on it's highest speed. You want more air changes per hour. Going by 5 air changes an hour on it's highest fan speed, the Core 200s covers 200 square feet."
"The mini is much too small for a bedroom."

"It does not have a hepa filter. ... Amazon tricked me as well. There's a whole scandal about Levoit advertising as hepa when they are not"
"The coverage rating is misleading marketing my Levoit. The 1,718 sq. ft. is at 1 Air Change per Hour (ACH). You need a bare minimum of 4.8 - 5 ACH."
"I got upset when I found out my 4 levoit core 300 were not hepa lol."

"Mind you, the filters are astronomically expensive, and you will need to replace them way more frequently than what’s suggested."
"My new filter just arrived today and I noticed the weight of it was lighter than the previous replacement filter I was using. ... You can see right through where the charcoal beads are that it’s not even filled up all the way like before, so $99 for half the charcoal."
"It will clean air at first but it is cheap and the filter cost will add up over time. The lack of real pre-filters really kills these things."
We have a Coway and a Levoit and they are both great but the Levoit goes through filters a lot faster IMO but the coway is visually much larger so we keep it in the main living area and the Levoit in BR.
r/BuyItForLife • The REAL best air purifier - I HATE DUST! ->levoit is good and has some very affordable options. we have an appropriately sized levoit in almost every room in our house and it helps a lot with allergies. also make sure to change your furnace filter regularly and use merv 13 or higher filters for it
r/moderatelygranolamoms • What is the best HEPA home air purifier that's actually worked well in your opinion? ->I have this setup. The Google home options to control it are limited. I just end up using their vesync app for scheduling. I do use Google home with it to setup automations for bedtime and stuff.
r/googlehome • Levoit Air Purifier ->https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-Purifiers-Efficiency-Intelligent-Purifier/dp/B08LH7XZ3H. This one but the amazon listing isn't available anymore. I think the new ones also support it. Also I believe have different devices available for different regions. I also have a Levoit purifier but that one requires a cloud connection to integration with HA, no local options afaik.
r/homeassistant • Air purifiers that work with HA ->Own Levoit 400 for our main living area (1,100 sq ft apt), the smaller one in our bedroom (toddler sleeps with us). Had them prior to Covid and love them. I vacuum the filters when I can per the manual. I got my mom the blueair 311i max because she was closer to one of the “minor” fires here in LA and she loved it so much she got the mini for her bedroom along with my dad’s (they sleep in separate rooms lol). I ended up getting the mini to bring to work.
r/moderatelygranolamoms • What are the Best Air Purifier for Allergies? ->Levoit’s Vital 200S and Core 400S are great units. I picked up a Vital 200S per recommendation of RTINGs.
r/AirPurifiers • Are these starkvind air purifiers worth the price or amount I better off with the ones on Amazon? I'm looking to get 3 but there is very little info on them online or in store, it seems more of like a statement piece than a functional air purifier ->I have a bernese and a golden and we use Levoit air purifiers. They work really well for our house which isn't very big
r/bernesemountaindogs • Anyone use air purifiers? ->I have had Levoit for a long time and they work well. Granted, if I was in the market I might do more research as it turned out my models weren’t “true HEPA” as advertised.
r/TwinCities • Air Purifiers Worth it? ->We have both of these too and love them
r/workingmoms • Is it worth it to buy an Air Purifier? If so, what's the best air purifier for home in your view/experience with it? ->I have 2 air doctors and a levoit and don't notice any difference between them. If money was no option I'd probably gonwoth Austin Air or Jaspr. If budget then Levoit or Winix from Costco. Or Costco also has a Shark with a 5 year filter.
r/moderatelygranolamoms • What's the best quality air purifier for home you've ever used? Have you found a noticeable difference? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
