Their products seem to be highly rated/reviewed.

Not sure, I will say I did like their purifiers (especially the Vital series) and their App was great, (though they recently updated it to add a forced arbitration clause to use it). I just don't appreciate companies giving wrong information about the effectiveness of their products.
Tempted to buy another one, but I saw a YouTube video that showed how to replace the capacitors recently.
Maybe I should buy this one in case I can't repair the old one.
anyway - they do catch stuff in their filters so i can't complain. would be too expensive at this point to buy certified ones....Their App is real good though and love that it just works compared to others that have no wifi ability in the same price range

The $80 Levoit Core 300 is rated for 175 or 217 sq ft (there are two EPA entries for this model for some reason).
Neither units is particularly energy efficicent, delivering around 3.x CADR per watt, unless Levoit updated the design.
For comparison, Costco's recently discontinued Winix C545 (with extra filter, each rated for 1 year) was $100 on sale and $130 regular. It is rated for 360 sq ft, or double that of the Core 300 or almost triple that of the LV-H131S. CADR/W is around 4.6
Costco replaced the C545 with the cylindrical C610 [costco.com] ($100 on sale now until Oct 20, $130 regular) that is even better: rated for 386 sq ft and significantly more efficient that the C545 at 6.4 (and almost 100% more efficient than the Levoits).
The Levoit H131 does have activated carbon granules which are more effective than carbon fiber/foam at absorbing odor (the old C545 uses fiber, I'm not sure about the C610). Also the Levoit has dust particle PM detector whereas Winix uses VOC (odor) detector.
For a bigger unit that is even more efficient, the BlueAir Pure 221i MAX for $190 (w/10% back if paid by Prime Visa card) is a no-brainer at 636* (corrected from 684) sq ft and 9.5* CADR/W (all recent Blueair units have very high efficiency, well above the popular Winix and Coway).
