I will compare the Levoit Core 300 and Blueair 411 Auto air purifiers in this article. I’ve already compared the Core 300 to the Blueair 411 Auto’s predecessor, and now it’s time to see how the Levoit handles the new model from Blueair.
These are two small air purifiers intended for smaller rooms, Levoit up to 219 sq. ft., and Blueair up to 190 sq. ft. Blueair is a minimalistic air purifier but with features such as an air quality sensor, air quality indicator, and auto mode. On the other hand, Levoit has options such as timer, filter reset indicator, display off, and display lock.
Regarding design and build quality, I have to say that both devices are modernly designed and will fit into almost any environment. However, I cannot fail to mention that I fancy the possibility of choosing up to five different colors for the pre-filter on the Blueair.
In the following, I will present the results of all the tests I performed on these two devices. In addition, I will compare their specifications and determine which air purifier is the better choice to buy.

Which One Does It Better?
After doing a detailed analysis, I concluded that the Blueair 411 Auto is a worthy successor to the previous Blueair 411 model and that this is an air purifier that can beat the Levoit Core 300.
So, my purchase recommendation goes to Blueair 411 Auto. The reasons are excellent performance, very low maintenance costs, a unique pre-filter, as well as an air quality sensor.
