Our Verdict

Levoit Core 400S

Levoit Vital 200S

The Levoit Core 400S and Levoit Vital 200S are somewhat evenly matched machines, though we'd give the edge to the Vital 200S for most uses. Both machines deliver near-identical air purification performance and have similar smart features, but only the Vital 200S has a washable pre-filter and a U-shaped air inlet that's intended to resist clogs from pet hair.
