Levoit Air Purifier

Bedroom · Air

For pet owners, a small air purifier in the bedroom can catch a lot of the hair, dander and dust floating around while you sleep.

What problem does it solve?

Pet hair and dander end up everywhere, and a lot of it floats in the air you breathe at night.

This compact Levoit runs air through a HEPA grade filter and has an AHAM verified clean air rating of 143 CFM for smoke, which Levoit says suits a room of about 222 square feet.

What living with it is like

• Quiet at night. Levoit says Sleep Mode runs as low as 24 dB. HouseFresh’s testing of the similar Core 300 measured about 37 dB on low.
• Right size for bedrooms. Best in small to medium rooms. One unit won’t clean a whole open plan house.
• Simple to use. No complicated setup, just pick a speed.
• Real running costs. HouseFresh estimates filters run about every 6 months for this class of Levoit.

Is it worth it for your home?

For allergy prone people with pets, a quiet bedroom purifier is one of the easiest ways to breathe a little easier at night.

For large rooms, look at a bigger model.
