Power and Humidification Capacity

Fitted with a powerful ultrasonic disk that vibrates rapidly, the Levoit Classic 200 Humidifier transforms water into very tiny molecules and subsequently employs a fan to blow them out of the unit in the form of a fine, cold mist.

  • It’s capable of covering spaces measuring 376 sq. ft., which makes it the perfect unit for medium-sized rooms.
  • This humidifier also features a large capacity 4-liter tank that holds enough water to provide continuous misting for up to 40 hours on the low mist output, which provides 100ml per hour.
  • It pushes the mist as high as 100cm into the air, which averts the risk of water dumping on your floor and furniture.
  • This humidifier also features a patented silencer that allows it to operate with a 30 dB noise output, which makes it silent enough for bedrooms, offices, and nurseries.
  • It also features an auto-shutoff mechanism that halts its operation when the water in the tank depletes. This prevents the unit from overheating and getting damaged.
  • The LED light turns off after 30 seconds of humidification, which prevents unnecessary disruptions, especially when using the unit in your bedroom.
  • It also comes with an aroma box and three pads that allow you to use your favorite essential oils to add a pleasant fragrance to your space.

We Suggest: Adding essential oils into the tank will cause leaks or permanent damage to the unit. Always add a few drops of your favorite essences into the aroma pad.

Setup and Usability

Using the Levoit Classic 200 Humidifier is pretty straightforward and easy.

  • All you need to do is add water into the tank, plug the unit to a power source, and you’re good to go.
  • You can also select your preferred mist output speed among high, medium, and low, which can be changed with a single button situated on the front side of the unit.

The humidifier displays your selected misting rate by changing the LED color around the respective mist output button, as shown below:

Blue: Low mist setting

Orange: Medium mist output

Purple: Highest misting speed

  • This humidifier also blinks red to alert you when the tank runs out of the water and eventually turns off when you fail to refill it.
  • The tank features a transparent strip that allows you to know when the water levels are running low.
  • It also comes with a nozzle that rotates at a full 360 degrees angle, which allows you to direct the mist to any direction you want.
  • The tank comes with a carrying handle and a large opening that allows you to transport it to the sink and fill it with water easily.

We Recommend: Use distilled water, which doesn’t leave a mineral residue on the ultrasonic disk.

Ease of cleaning and Maintenance

Maintaining the Levoit Classic 200 Humidifier is pretty basic.

This humidifier doesn’t use filters, which means that you are not subjected to the monthly costs of buying replacements. It, however, needs some basic cleaning chores to ensure that it runs smoothly:

  • You need to wipe clean all the plastic components with a damp cloth every once in a while, which includes the base, as well as the inner and outer parts of the tank.
  • Always clean the aroma pad with running water after use and ensure that it dries completely before adding essential oils.
  • The package includes three pads that allow you to continue diffusing while the other pad is drying.
  • For deep cleaning, you need to fill the reservoir with distilled vinegar and let it soak for about 30 minutes before using the provided soft brush to scrub it clean
  • You can also clean the inside of the tank by hand with a soft cloth thanks to its large opening.
  • Ensure to rinse everything thoroughly with warm water until the smell of vinegar disappears.
  • The tank and base are separable, and the silencer can be removed, which allows you to reach every nook and cranny when cleaning the unit. It also makes your work much easier.

We Suggest: Take precautions when cleaning the disc. Use a soft brush, preferably the one provided in the package otherwise you will risk damaging the disc permanently.

Areas for Which It’s Best Suited

The Levoit Classic 200 Humidifier handles spaces measuring up to 376 sq. ft., without breaking a sweat, which means that it’s perfect for humidifying medium-sized rooms.

This unit’s ability to operate with minimal noises of 30dB makes it perfect for bedrooms, offices, and baby rooms.

It’s also suited for relaxing areas like yoga studios, conservatories, and bedrooms.

This is attributable to its aroma box that allows you to create a therapeutic atmosphere in your space through the use of essential oils.

This humidifier’s ability to produce cool mist makes it perfect for homes with kids and the elderly as it doesn’t pose the scalding danger otherwise posed by units that produce warm mist.

The large-capacity tank that enables it to provide up to 40 hours of mist output makes it perfect for severely dry rooms that require continuous misting.
