What the differences mean
Sensing
The Levoit Eleva 300X reads PM1.0, PM2.5 and PM10 separately on a display. The Levoit Vital 100S-P uses an infrared dust sensor that reads PM2.5 only and shows it through colour rings, with the detail in the app.
Airflow and room size
The Levoit Eleva 300X moves 161 CFM for about 250 sq ft, and the Levoit Vital 100S-P moves 143 CFM for around 222 sq ft. Both are one-room machines, so the gap is small.
Pre-filter
The Levoit Vital 100S-P has a washable pre-filter and a wide U-shaped inlet that keeps pet hair from strangling the airflow. The Levoit Eleva 300X bonds its pre-filter to the HEPA element, so it is brushed or vacuumed rather than rinsed.
Power draw
The Levoit Eleva 300X draws 25 W at full speed and the Levoit Vital 100S-P draws 35 W. Both are efficient, but the Eleva uses less.
Display and sleep
The Levoit Eleva 300X shows its readings on a top display and its sleep mode runs below the lowest speed at around 20 dB. The Levoit Vital 100S-P has a touch panel and a sleep mode that turns its display off after a few seconds.
Which one to buy if
- you have pets and a tight budget
The Levoit Vital 100S-P pairs a washable pre-filter with a U-shaped inlet and is the more affordable unit.
- you want to see particle sizes separately
The Levoit Eleva 300X reports PM1.0, PM2.5 and PM10 on its display.
- you want the quietest sleep mode
The Levoit Eleva 300X runs its sleep mode around 20 dB, below its lowest numbered speed.
- you want to rinse the pre-filter instead of brushing it
The Levoit Vital 100S-P has a washable pre-filter, while the Levoit Eleva 300X bonds its pre-filter to the HEPA element.
- you want the lowest running cost
The Levoit Eleva 300X draws 25 W at full speed against 35 W for the Levoit Vital 100S-P.

What owners say
Levoit Vital 100S-P owners describe the same two things. First, how quiet it is: they call sleep mode effectively soundless, run it on the lower speeds around the clock, and say they forget it is on. Second, that the effect is visible rather than theoretical, with reports of less dust settling on furniture, cooking smells clearing within minutes, litter box odour gone from a basement, and hay fever sufferers waking without blocked sinuses. The VeSync app earns unusual praise for a budget purifier, with setup taking minutes and the schedules, filter percentage and remote alerts all working. Their complaints are the modest room size against the marketing figure, the cost of replacement filters, and a turbo top speed that is too loud to sleep through.
Price history compared

Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better overall: Levoit Eleva 300X or Levoit Vital 100S-P?
For a pet household on a budget, the Levoit Vital 100S-P, with its washable pre-filter and U-shaped inlet. For detailed particle sensing and the quietest sleep mode, the Levoit Eleva 300X.
What is the biggest difference between the Levoit Eleva 300X and the Levoit Vital 100S-P?
Sensing and the pre-filter. The Levoit Eleva 300X reads PM1.0, PM2.5 and PM10 separately, while the Levoit Vital 100S-P reads PM2.5 only but gives you a washable pre-filter built for pet hair.
Are these the same size purifier?
Close. The Levoit Eleva 300X moves 161 CFM for about 250 sq ft and the Levoit Vital 100S-P moves 143 CFM for around 222 sq ft, so both are single-room machines.
Do either support Apple Home or Matter?
No. The Levoit Eleva 300X and the Levoit Vital 100S-P both work with Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant, but neither supports Apple Home, SmartThings or Matter.
Which one is easier to keep running in a pet home?
The Levoit Vital 100S-P, because its pre-filter is rinseable and its U-shaped inlet is designed to keep fur from choking the intake. The Levoit Eleva 300X uses a bonded pre-filter that is only brushed or vacuumed.
Who should buy the Levoit Eleva 300X?
Anyone who wants finer particle sensing, a display, Bluetooth setup and the quietest sleep mode of the pair, and does not need the washable pre-filter of the Levoit Vital 100S-P.
