Levoit Core 300 HEPA Air Purifier - Full Review & Moan

Ғылым және технология

A review, demo and sound test of the Levoit Core 300 air purifier. This is not a medical review but I do very crudely prove that this thing majorly reduces dust in a room. There's also a moan about the less than optimal Levoit customer support experience and information on how to replace and clean the HEPA filter.

    I don't know why people hate any sound, I cannot ever sleep in silence, I just can't do it lol Ill fall to sleep listening to the fan in one of these, I'm just finding it so hard to know what one to get, have a dog and cat, lots dust and my wife smokes occasional inside of the house. These reviews and little demo videos are great though, thanks for uploading this, I'm considering buying it but am still looking at others also for now.

I think it also depends where people live. If I lived in a rural area with no road noise or close neighbors and could have true silence, I could sleep without the noise, but the noise in general for me is to mask the ambient sounds of neighbors and traffic.

    Agree. I just got one for our house. My son has really bad allergies and our house is a dust factory! I will eventually invest in more in the future and I did actually just order a pet filter for the one we have to see if that works a bit better. I really wanted to watch the video to see if you needed to clean the filter at all and I noticed he said to vacuum it a bit so I will do that to see if that helps a bit. After a month ours is already very very dusty!

    I purchased two of these from Amazon this morning for ours and our son's bedrooms. Our son and his father (me) have horrible allergies to God knows what, but we can barely breath several months out of the year, especially at night, so we decided to give these a try. Hope it lives up to all the hype in the Amazon reviews. On the upside, everyone in my home is entirely addicted to sleeping with a fan, and for no other reason than the white noise a fan creates, so we've got that going for us.

The only ding in their emails was saying they can’t read the label. Give the guy a benefit of doubt, must have been a busy day for him. If you purchased a Bentley or a Rolls Royce, that would be unacceptable service but for a low-budget Chinese made product, that seems pretty good.

I have an ancient purifier with a rotary dial that controls fan speed and that makes it superior to these fiddly digital touch controls. The Coway "mighty" purifier turns on to the "auto" setting, still not ideal but better than nothing. The Coway airmega 400 remembers what setting it was on, but for some silly reason plays a little song every time it powers on....

    So for the pre filter I heard you'd have to clean it every 2 to 4 weeks so the actual filter lasts long right? You also mentioned that you can vacuum those dust particles when you took the filter out every week or 2.

    It is ideal to vacuum the pre-filter every couple of weeks (or once a month depending on your situation). Personally I checked on mine once a week initially and every 3 weeks is about right for me. It definitely extends the life of the filter, getting dust, hair, larger particles, etc. out of the way so it can more efficiently do its job. By keeping on top of vacuuming it, my filters last roughly 8 months.

    You could do, and I’m sure the filter will continue to remove dust. However the filters allegedly have an active carbon element. It’s this that needs replacing over time. I’m afraid I don’t know how much of this is a marketing ploy to ensure ongoing revenue from customers and how effective or necessary this aspect of filtering is. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Regarding Customer Service: I been dealing with a different company here in the USA about a expensive electric scooter for the last 1 1/2 years, it's still ongoing. Long story short, they refuse to honor the warranty. Scooter arrived defective. Could not install the seat and scooter looses all power (for about 2-3 minutes) after 10+ mile ride (has a 60+ mile range). It get very bad when it loses power on a very busy street with a speed limit of 45 MPH. I took the scooter to a local bike shop to see if they could install the seat. Shop tried for 5 minutes and was unable to install the seat. Keep in mind that the seat is a bike seat. I sent an email to CS and let them know about everything including what the bike shop attempted to do. They claim the scooter was working fine and they claimed that the bike shop didn't know what they where doing. They wanted me to somehow film myself installing the seat onto the seat post. I refuse to do so, I have no way to film myself and the bike shop has years of experience versus I have 0 experience. After a while of going back and forth, they still wanted me to film myself installing the seat and now claims that the scooter had magicly fix itself. The very next day, I took the scooter out for a ride, it lost power again. I managed to film on 4K showing that the scooter was on (display still works) and the motor will not run when I pressed the throttle. I emailed them the video, the company then either Ghosted or Blacklisted me. I filed complaints with agencies who handled consumer complaints. That went nowhere. The company lied about everything to the agencies and told me to take the company to court because they have no power. Luckily, I finance the scooter through Affirm. I disputed the whole amount. I let Affirm know about what's going on, the scooter company was refusing to honor their Warranty and provided them with the emails from the company and video of the scooter not working. Affirm sided with the company, stating that the scooter company was following the company policies. Even tho the scooter company and now Affirm was breaking the government rules and regulations. I am stuck with a expensive paperweight with a big bill. To this day, 1 1/2 years later, scooter company still Ghosting and Blacklisted me. Affirm, same thing for most part. I still refuse to pay anything, Affirm had sent it to a 3rd party collector. They haven't took me to court. I have a feeling that if or when they do take me to court, they will lose.
