Dyson vs Levoit Air Purifiers Comparison

Last updated on October 8th, 2022

Both Dyson and Levoit have a wide range of air cleaners that differ in size, capabilities, price and so on. However, there are some similarities:

• Both companies provide a 2-year warranty on their products;
• All air purifiers employ HEPA + Activated Carbon filters. The first one can filter out particles as small as 0.3 micron (includes bacteria, viruses, dust mites, asbestos, pollen, allergens, etc.) and the latter is used for odor absorption (diapers, smoke, pet smells and so on);
• Both companies have their production facilities in China.

Let’s at first compare the best Dyson air purifier to the best Levoit one.

Both air purifiers support WiFi, Auto mode and can cover large area, cleaning the air inside from dust, dander, allergens and other airborne particles. However, the Dyson is three times pricier than its Levoit competitor. What are the reasons for that?

• Dyson appliances were and still are considered “premium”. In all instances the price tag is going to be higher, whether it is an air purifier, vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, etc. That’s just Dyson’s pricing model, nothing can be done about that.
• The air purifier incorporates a heater and fan. So it’s 3-in-1 climate control appliance, capable not only of cleaning air but also to making it hotter or colder, based on your wishes.
• It also features an Improved HEPA air filter to capture various particles.
• Two air quality indicators: PM10 and PM2.5.
• Wide range of speeds allow to fine tune the Pure Hot + Cool air purifier.
• The Dyson Pure Hot + Cool build quality is somewhat better than the Levoit’s.
• Unique design. Levoit uses the standard design for an air purifier while the Dyson’s design is unique and can be easily recognized.
• It comes with a remote.

If nothing of the above isn’t enough to spend more money, then go with the Levoit Core 400s. It’s a great cleaning device for a reasonable price.

And now let’s compare a Dyson air purifier that doesn’t have additional functionality (e.g. heating) with another popular Levoit air purifier.

As I’ve mentioned previously, the Dyson air purifiers have a higher price tag and this is applies to the Pure Cool Link TP02. But compared to the previous model HP04, this has less advantages over the cheaper Levoit Core 300s and in my opinion, it’s not worth the cost. However, it’s still wildly popular in the USA.
