If you get levoit gotta get the 100S or 200S 200S is better just pricer tho we had wild fire smokes for months in Ontario and I am allergic to dust the 100S served me well, I wish I had gone with 200S but was just to much at the time

Levoit 100S Vital. They sell for about $100 on Amazon Resale under "like new." I have good experience buying via Amazon Resale. And if there's an issue, returns are easy.

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.

I have cat litter box smells in my office and my Levoit 100s with knock off yellow pet filters has helped immensely with the smell and general feeling of air quality in the room. My office is almost identical size - 14.5 ft x 10 ft. Remember to run it on max speed for as long as possible then download the app and use the Pet Mode for everyday use

I have a 196 square ft bedroom and use a Levoit 100s and does a great job. I did buy the knock off pet filters though .

I got the Vital 100s for my room which is like 3x the price and size, but I got to say I absolutely love it and can notice a difference within only a week. People say Levoit is cheap, but I'm sure these are fine for someone wanting to casually clean the air. How big is your room though? You may not get many air changes per hour with this, through my short research recently it seems like you really want to go larger than youd think.

I bought the S100 and arrived, seems pretty good to me, first time you turn it on, it will release some "plastic/glue" smell for a couple of hours, I handled running it at max speed with window opened and it was fine.

I think is pretty good for me. I think it can clean the kitchen smell pretty good at max speed. So Im pretty happy with that at the moment.

I had no problems with dust or animal hair, so I can't tell if it makes some significant difference. But in a small room I think it can make the difference.

I bought the Vital 100S 2 weeks ago about and I 'm pretty happy wth that. It's doing is job and most important in a couple of hourit removes cooking odors from the room.
