Design & Usability

Pros:

• "It has a very quiet mode and is a simple sleek design."
• "Virtually no set-up or installation."
• "The air purifier has a smooth white front - there is no exterior grill to collect dust as it is drawn into the device."
• "It fits on the counter next to the stove with a small footprint."
• "It is the perfect size, the perfect color, and I love the long cord."
• "The designers of this air purifier thought of everything; from three timers to automatically turn it off at different times, to turning off the function display for people who need a completely darkened room to sleep well."
• "This product has a great slim design."

Cons:

• "The washing and drying process changed the shape and tension of pre-filter and it stretches it to make it kind of hard to put the pre-filter back."
• "I opened it up and discovered that one of the plastic tabs that secured the filter door was broken off."
• "The filter is NOT WASHABLE."
• "I was surprised at how small it is - it looks much larger in the photos."
• "I had ordered 2 of these at different times and within a week of receiving them, each had failure problems with the touch controls."
• "Was not packed on an amazon box. So maybe got damaged in transport??"
• "The only thing running in my room was the air purifier and the fire alarm went off."

Noise Level

Pros:

• "Doesn't make a crazy amount of noise, Especially when on lower fan settings."
• "In addition to working well it has a pleasant low white noise."
• "The noise level is like a small fan, even on high."
• "The slowest fan mode is very quiet so I can easily sleep with this in my room running."
• "On the lowest it very quiet."
• "It’s also nice and quiet, the highest setting sounds like a fan on medium speed, not bothersome to me."
• "It's super quiet (I keep it on high)."

Cons:

• "When you bump it up to high it gets loud, but tolerable."
• "It's extremely noisy and still isn't picking up half of the contaminates that I want removed."
• "Fan on high is way to loud so have to turn it down at night."
• "The highest speed setting is so noisy that I can hear/feel the fan in this thing moving with my fully enclosed headphones on playing music."
• "3 is quite loud, I could hear it from downstairs running on 3 with the door open."
• "The high setting is rather noisy; it reminds me of a hair dryer."
• "It is really quite loud/uncomfortable to be around when on."

Customer Service

Pros:

• "Levoit customer service was great. I received a replacement very quickly."
• "Customer Service is responsive; having tested that because one filter cover arrived broken."
• "Don't hesitate to get this unit. Well worth the money, this is a real review."
• "I now recommend air purifiers to everyone that will listen LOL."

Cons:

• "So unfortunately, my decision to save $20 or so a couple of years ago means that I'm stuck now with something I can barely use."
• "I am ineligible for a replacement because I bought a 'used' unit from Amazon instead of a new unit."
• "It’s a shame I won’t be able to use it much longer because I can’t afford the replacement filters the price has gone up so high."
• "Customer service is terrible and they just never responded."
• "I have no idea how to even get ahold of this seller to complain about this but I think it's BS that this is even doing that!!!!!!!"
• "As of now, I would not recommend this product to anyone who needs an air purifier in their house."
• "However, toward the end of 2021, the fan (?) or something on the inside part began to squeak episodically."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "So for me its worth every dollar I spent."
• "This unit is by far the best purchase I’ve made in 2020."
• "Recommend ordering an additional filter if you have lots of dogs as you will be replacing the filter often because it does a good job."
• "A really nice unit that is long-term economical, as you just wash the filter instead of having to purchase new ones every couple months."
• "Very happy with my new Levoit Air Purifier."
• "Best purchase ever, highly recommend."
• "And at the price of $99.99 puts this one over the top. Highly recommended."

Cons:

• "While I don’t dislike the Vital 100, I cannot say its performance has justified its cost."
• "The amount of money that I paid for this purifier and now the money for this replacement filter this is just crazy and really sucks!!!!!!!"
• "It seems a little expensive at $120 just being a fan but compared to all of the others it's comparable."
• "Just disappointing to say the least since this cost me over $300CAD."
• "Look, money isn’t my first problem and buying this cute little air filter that costs maybe, maybe $20 I bought for a $120+tax."
• "I'm giving it 4 stars because I think it's so simple it's not worth $100."
• "This purifier is the biggest disappointment from all my Amazon orders over the years."
