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 deliver near-identical air purification performance and offer a similar suite of smart features, including app connectivity, automatic fan adjustment, and voice control support. However, only the Vital 200S has a washable pre-filter and a U-shaped air inlet that's intended to resist clogs from pet hair, making it a more practical choice for homes with shedding pets. It also operates a little more quietly than the Core 400S, particularly at higher fan speeds, which can make it easier to live with in bedrooms and other frequently occupied spaces.
