"I have 5 Levoit smart purifiers around my home on Google Home ecosystem, and it works flawlessly."
"I like the Levoit and the Welov a little more because you can check the filter life in their app, and the Levoit will auto-mail you new filters when the filter life is low."

"the filters are stupidly expensive"
"I’m using levoit filters at home and they’re fine and the 2.5 levels are very low. I can also connect them to home assistant which is a big plus for me so I can monitor the filter level(though I’m guessing this is just an arbitrary use based calculation). But I do regret buying them due to the replacement thing."
"I have a levoit air purifier and I find filters expensive"

"Customer service is good but they changed the manufacturer of their filters and now they reek of chemicals. ... Last time I replaced they smelt awful. ... Contacted the company who was kind enough to send us new ones-same smell. ... Defeats the purpose if its going to off gas in our home and the smell didn't go away."

"Automatic mode on my air purified is garbage and always keeps it running low, so I run in on medium/high mode."
"My Levoit air purifiers don’t do that, they ignore my farts."
"I did stop using the auto mode completely. ... Speed 1 is useless and the auto mode keeps it on speed one most of the time."
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 ->Levoit’s Vital 200S is great for what you’re looking for. There are various filters (pet, smoke, toxin) you can swap in place of the standard one. In the +/- month I’ve had it for, it’s done a great job. I also consulted RTINGs, which lead me to purchase one for my home… https://www.rtings.com/air-purifier/reviews/best/air-purifiers
r/AirPurifiers • Best air purifier for apartments affected by wildfires? ->The Levoit Vital 200S is great. It’s well reviewed, highly ranked, and recommended by RTINGs as well.
r/AirPurifiers • I’m looking for the best of the best air purifiers to combat cigarette smoke. ->Levoit quite literally makes a separate filter specialized for smoke or toxins…
r/AirPurifiers • I’m looking for the best of the best air purifiers to combat cigarette smoke. ->What’s your budget? Check out RTINGs.com for reviews. Ike my Levoit Vital 200S a lot. Works great!
r/AirPurifiers • Any good budget air purifiers? ->Can you return it still? Your square footage is the max a 100s may be able to do while running full blast if you’re dealing with an active smoke situation. You’d be better off with a 200S Vital. Look for something with a CADR number at least equal to your square footage. Also, if you have a central air forced HVAC, you can put a MERV 13 filter temporarily into the return and run it on fan mode only for additional filtration.
r/AirPurifiers • Even with my air purifier I'm struggling with wildfire smoke ->I have Levoit Vital 200s and I am satisfied
r/AirPurifiers • What Air Purifier Do You Recommend for Asthma? ->We also run Levoit and I’m less congested in the mornings. Happy with them.
r/homeowners • What are the best air purifiers for home currently? Do you notice any difference when using them? ->Are the filters pricey? We have the levoitt one and it’s nice bc you just wash the filter
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? ->Customer service is good but they changed the manufacturer of their filters and now they reek of chemicals. No thanks.
r/AirPurifiers • Should I not get a Levoit? ->I second Levoit. I don’t think I noticed an immediate air quality difference (except if I burn something it clears more quickly) but I clean up so much less cat hair and my husband suffers less with pollen allergies and isn’t bothered by cat dander anymore. When the fires were happening thw inside of my house always smelled 1000% better than the outside.
r/homeowners • What are the best air purifiers for home currently? Do you notice any difference when using them? ->I have an open is concept floor of a smaller house so I just have a Vital 200S in the dining room between the kitchen and living room areas. Unless there are particulates in the air, like smoke, it won’t automatically turn on higher, just for smells your mileage may vary. It has never made my house smell less like bread or chili while cooking.
r/homeowners • What are the best air purifiers for home currently? Do you notice any difference when using them? ->Levoit Vital 200s or Coway Airmega 150. The vital has better CADR but if you want something smaller in size the Coway is a high quality unit.
r/AirPurifiers • best air purifier under $150 ->The 1800sqft number is for only 1 ACH which is not how you should be shopping for purifiers. You want to base the unit off 4.8 ACH which is recommended. That makes the Levoit only good for 390sqft spaces.
r/AirPurifiers • best air purifier under $150 ->Loving my Levoit Vital 200s
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed Reddit data for the 20 most recommended air purifiers (in the past year) ->mas maganda yung square na prufier. levoit vital 200s
r/RentPH • Highly recommend this for pet owners ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
