Levoit - LV-PUR131S

I second a Levoit. I have 3 different models right now in my house. They’re decent price and they last for years if you replace the filters on schedule. And I run my a few hours a day, sometimes all day. I have the core 300S and the 300S-P with WiFi in my living room and primary bedroom. I have LV-H128 in my kitchen. I used to have the LV-PUR131S but it finally died after 5 years

Levoits with homebridge work well, but as another user was saying they are just on auto all the time. I just added them to Apple Home because I could I guess…

Personally i have asthma and have 2-3 levoits in a short period which i found didnt work well, and then 2 broke within warrenty period, and just switched to something better. Even when it running as intended, i just found their filters didnt do much of anything to help, IMO owned [LV-PUR131S](https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07NR9KL8J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and it broke within a month, rmaed, broke within year warrenty again, refunded and got a blueair 211+, actually improved my symptoms unlike the levoit, also just use boxfan+furnace filter and imo is way more effective then levoits purifier for less then a 1/4 the cost [https://www.reddit.com/r/AirPurifiers/comments/1hi2izu/comment/m2vrhtz/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/AirPurifiers/comments/1hi2izu/comment/m2vrhtz/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

IqAir, Austin, Levoit They are all running right now at home. Visitors often tell me the house smells very clean and pure. I have a Levoit 300 by the front door. Levoit 600 in the living room. Austin on the kitchen counter in the corner by the stove. An IqAir in my master. A Levoit 300 in another bedroom. MPR 300 filters for my HVAC.

IqAir It’s not “smart”. But I don’t need it to have WiFi or smart features. I need it to cleanse the air. I have a Levoit in my living room and the only thing that is neat is telling Siri to turn it to 100% or back down to 50%. The IqAir sits in my master bedroom. It smells clean and crisp in the bedroom!

I know exactly how you must feel, as we've been through this all before, it's overwhelming with all the different choices. My partner has a severe dust mite allergy and the first thing we bought was a Levoit true HEPA filter air purifier. Further to that, we bought a Dustro dx6 mattress vacuum cleaner. It removes all the dust mites from deep inside the mattress, UV sterilises it, and applies hot air to it too which apparently makes it hard for them to survive or multiply. Trust me the first time you use it you'll be shocked at what it pulls out - this is after vacuuming our bed daily! A combination of both have made a night and day difference, we noticed the different straight away

I’ve liked Levoit and felt it makes a difference and they have models that are cheaper around $160 or so. Just make sure you choose one with a TRUE HEPA filter, not a “HEPA like” one. It’s not the same. And HEPA is what filters for stuff like allergens and pollen, pet dander etc. I’ve also really liked Austin air bedroom machine. It’s on the more expensive side but has all the bells and whistles but it is around $1k :( that one seriously makes a dent. Also heard good things about airdoctor but haven’t personally tried it and it’s also more expensive. I actually did a [tonnnn of research on air purifiers](https://www.cleanandhonest.com/blog/best-air-purifier-hepa-mold-allergies-more) recently if you’d find this helpful in your research :) Goodluck! There’s lot of options now at different price points. Just make sure it has a real HEPA filter.

Hey! I have 5 Levoit smart purifiers around my home on Google Home ecosystem, and it works flawlessly.

We have several LeVoit smart purifiers and they’re outstanding. Our old home is super dusty and these units have made a huge impact on how we feel and no longer see tons of random dust particles in the air.

I have had one Levoit Smart Air Purifier in every room of the house for several years now. I initially bought a few and but was uneasy about the expensive investment I was getting myself into. But I ended up liking them so much I kept getting more and more. I have no regrets even though I’ve spent over $1500 total on them. They make a huge difference (home for a small family + several pets). Actually only regret is I didn’t do this sooner. I’ve suffered from allergies most of my life, to the point that I always walk around 24/7/365 with giant wads of tissues in my pockets. These things make it much more bearable. Pro-tip, you can prolong the filter life by vacuuming the gunk off them. Probably should do it outside as the vacuum tends to agitate some smaller particles in the air.

Some Levoits do have an ionizer function. :P The ones you buy in the big box stores tend to have it, on the box it will say “PlasmaPro”. I bought a model on Amazon that does NOT have the PlasmaPro function. Now, probably, you can just not turn on PlasmaPro and it’s fine but I wasn’t taking any chances.

I literally do not know. When I asked the company the same question they just denied that ionization can harm birds. I returned the PlasmaPro model I had bought at Target and ordered one without from Amazon, I didn’t want to take any chances.
