Allison interviews Jeannie Horner from VeSync, parent company of Levoit, about a range of Levoit air purifiers and cordless vacuums.
Jeannie first shows Levoit’s 300S-P and 200S-P air purifiers. Both are smart air purifiers that connect to the VeSync app for convenient functions and voice control. Both operate quietly and have a sleep mode that turns off the display and reduces fan speed for super-quiet operation.
The 300S-P provides three-stage filtration and is designed for room sizes up to 1,051 square feet with 141 CFM. The larger 200S-P is ideal for homes with pets. With three stages, it filters 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns, such as hair and smoke particles. In its Auto Mode, it automatically adjusts fan speed based on detected air quality.
Jeannie then moves on to Levoit’s cordless vacuums, starting with the LVAC-200 and LVAC-300. Both are low-profile stick-style vacuums with 5-stage filtration that capture 99.9% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. The LVAC-300 is slightly more powerful and has a longer battery life (up to 60 min in ECO mode) than the LVAC-200, with a 50 min battery life.
Jeannie then shows Levoit’s latest vacuum, the Aero, which comes with its own Auto Charging Cleaning Station. After using the Aero and placing it in its dock, the vacuum automatically empties itself into the cleaning station using HyperPulse technology. It uses negative pressure to create a suction that fully empties the vacuum’s dust bin for you.
Two Paris Hotel staff members walk by as Allison tries out the LVAC-200 on the show floor carpeting, and they become interested in how the vacuum works. They stop and one of them asks if he can try out the vacuum himself. Allison gives him the vacuum to start cleaning the carpeting, and the employee seems very pleased with how it works.

Transcript of Interview:
Allison: At the Sheridan household, we have Levoit air purifiers in our home, and we’ve even bought one for Steve’s mother because she moved to an area where the air quality is really poor, and it completely solved her problem. She’s in much, much better shape than she was before. And so we ran over to the VeSync booth, where Jeannie Horner represents the company Levoit, and we’re going to look at some other things that you make, right?
Jeannie: Absolutely. Yes, thanks for stopping by. So you’re familiar with our air purifiers. This is our 300 SP, so smart air purifier. This is our Vital 200 SP. So this is for a larger room or especially designed for pets, the pet hair and dander.
Allison: Okay, so the 300 is the one I think we have. And this is describing for the audio audience as well. It’s a large cylinder, maybe 2 feet high, foot and a half high.
Jeannie: I would say it kind of looks like a protein powder container, right?
Allison: A lot of protein, right? And then the 200 is a bigger unit, but it’s a smaller number. That’s kind of confusing, but it sort of looks like a small air conditioner.
Jeannie: Right. And it flushes because it’s square; it can flush against the wall if that’s a concern for people.
Allison: Yeah. They’re very pretty. They’re white, they’re classy looking.
Jeannie: They blend in well, I feel like, into various environments. And since you’re familiar with these, I’ll tell you a little bit about our vacuum cleaners.
Allison: Oh, yeah.
Jeannie: So here we have the Elvac 200. This is our first vacuum. And then this one sells for \$199. It’s a very high-performing vacuum. This was in such high demand, we developed the Elvac 300, which sells for 350. This is more powerful for people, especially those who have pets at home and need more power. And this has five-stage HEPA filtration.
Allison: Oh, so you’ve taken the technology from your air purifiers into the line of vacuums.
Jeannie: Precisely.
Allison: I see where you’re going.
Jeannie: Exactly. And I’ll take that a step further. This is our newest vacuum. This is the Arrow. And it also has five-stage HEPA filtration. It has a triple strike technology, so you’re never going to get hair tangled in here. It auto untangles. And the coolest part that I think is this empties, it docks, and it empties into a dust bag inside of here that’s fully sealed. So, you know, other vacuums you open, dust cloud, allergens.
Allison: I cannot tell you how many times I’ve dumped part of the bag onto my shoes.
Jeannie: You’re like, I just cleaned up a mess. Thank you for another mess, right?
Allison: So I’m going to describe these a little bit too for the audio audience. So the Elvac 200 is a tiny thin cylinder, not a very big chamber there. I might be able to do one of my cat hair rooms with that.
Jeannie: Depends on the cats you have, probably.
Allison: Right, two. And then the Elvac 300, what was better about that one than the 200?
Jeannie: This one’s a little bit more powerful for people that have more things that they need to pick up or higher pile carpet, etc.
Allison: Yeah, it looks like it’s really light.
Jeannie: It is very light. And I personally like the low profiles of these. I live in a pretty small cottage and so to be able to put it into a cleaning closet is helpful for me because I don’t have a lot of space.
Allison: Yeah.
Jeannie: And then our newest debut with Arrow, we have with this what’s called hyper pulse technology. When you dock it and it empties, you know in an airplane bathroom, the negative pressure sucks everything down. So ours does the same thing. Do you want me to turn it on?
Allison: Yeah. I want to look at the, I’m confused at what I’m looking at. We’ve got a big chamber, but that’s not the vacuum because it’s sitting in the dock.
Jeannie: Yeah, I’ll pull it off.
Allison: Oh, she’s showing us the bag inside. Okay.
Jeannie: That’s the bag. So this is fully sealed up here for when it empties into it, you’re not going to have any allergens, dander, dust, pollen, all that stuff escape.
Allison: Defeating the purpose, right?
Jeannie: If we’re going to put time into cleaning, let’s make it really clean in my opinion because I have better things to do than vacuum three times a day.
Allison: Right. All right, let’s turn it on. Let’s turn it on. I got the mic up here ready for it. I want to hear the toilet suck here.
Jeannie: So it’s self-cleaning, and everything’s going into that bag. And that bag will last people easily up to 60, 90 days, so you don’t have to change it very much.
Allison: Really? I would think that would depend on the pets again, but…
Jeannie: In fact, they have some folks, some media folks who have tested it and they were like, we’re a heavy pet household and he said, I just needed a bag after six months.
Allison: Wow. Can we see the other side of this?
Jeannie: Absolutely. Want me to take it off for you?
Allison: Oh, okay. All right. Oh, so the vacuum is still quite small. Oh, yeah. That is really tiny.
Jeannie: It’s pretty self-contained, right?
Allison: Oh, nice. Can I vacuum with it?
Jeannie: You certainly can.
Allison: All right. Well, I’ll get to work here. Do you do the classic step on it?
Jeannie: This one you’re going to want to release down.
Allison: There’s a lever button to flop it down so that I don’t…
Jeannie: There should be a button.
Allison: There we go. I knew it was with the foot. Okay.
Jeannie: It’s also like an instinct that I don’t think we can ever get rid of.
Allison: Right, exactly. Hold it on?
Jeannie: Yeah.
Allison: Power button?
Jeannie: Yep.
Allison: Power should do something. Do I need to press one of these buttons? No. I’m not smart enough to run the vacuum. Oh, I just wasn’t pressing hard enough. Okay. All right. Well, let me clean the floor here. Oh, that’s doing a good job. Let me keep going, this is fun. It’s got a nice swivel head on it. I’m vacuuming the floor. Steve loves a little B-roll where I can do some clean up here. Here we go. All right, I’m cleaning up. This is great. Do you want me to clean some more here? Got one of the workers. Yeah, I could get a job here. Yeah, try it. Okay, so he wants to try it too. We’re going to let everybody play with it. Pretty nice. All right, we’ve got other people trying it.
Worker: How much?
Jeannie: This one’s \$499.
Allison: Very good. Well, Jeannie, this is fantastic. I’m really interested in all of this and where would people best go to find out more about the Levoit vacuums and air purifiers?
Jeannie: Certainly. So there’s Levoit.com and then we’re also on Amazon.
Allison: There you go. Thank you very much.
Jeannie: Thank you.
