Vital 200S-P

Purifier that matches your boxes is [Levoit Vital 200S](https://redango-delta.vercel.app/g/RQ4AFX9M27). It does have a washable pre-filter so you're not constantly buying replacements and the HEPA inside handles the dander that's actually triggering allergies. Also quiet enough on low that your cat won't care.

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.

I have had both of these models burn out in less than a year, probably closer to around the 6 month mark. I also have 3 cats, so maybe that’s why, but just a word of warning.

I would say levoit USED to be good in my experience. We have a several year old filter and it’s still going strong with no issues. We’ve since bought 4 or 5 different filters and they have all had the motor burn out in less than a year, most of them in just a few months. We recently went with a shark “never change” and although it sounds super gimmicky, it’s actually working really really well and no motor issues so far but it’s only been a couple of weeks.

I’ve owned the 200S-P for over three years now. It’s placed in my living room space where most foot traffic flows with my pets and the baby. When I’m cooking the sensors go off and turn green, yellow and red indicating air quality levels, app control ability, it has voice prompt integration my Alexa setup to adjust fan speed levels and the prescreen filter is easy to vacuum aside from the main filter that I change around once a year. It has done its job and I can see how much dust and pet dander collected on the screen filter. The intake is right in front so it allows me to place the air purifier close to one of the adjoining walls between the transition of my living space which works perfectly. I’ve been replacing it with OEM filters. No regrets on this purchase! 300S for master bed room with high traffic over 23k cumulative running hours and the occasional filter replacement / vacuum 200S for the smaller bed room with very little traffic.

I have a Winix AM90 and just got a Levoit Vital 200S-P. I like the Levoit more, more features, better app and slicker buttons/interface. They both have a filter and fan, they seem roughly the same so far.

[Amazon](https://a.co/d/d1q3x1F) I got 2 of those. One for bedroom and one for living room. They work well. They help me as long as I stay indoors. Mileage will always vary. Good luck.

You can get a hepa filter unit with activated carbon that'll cover that whole room for not much on Amazon.  https://a.co/d/4OAK4Us for example  (I have 4)
