Bought a Levoit Core or EverestAir air purifier between 2019 and 2023? A $15M HEPA labeling settlement is open. File your claim by November 3, 2026.
Quick Facts
- Settlement fund: $15 million
- Claim deadline: November 3, 2026
- Proof required: Yes - evidence of purchase date
- Estimated payout: $10 per claim (may be higher if fewer claims are filed)
- Who qualifies: US buyers of Levoit Core or EverestAir air purifiers or replacement filters, purchased August 2019 - August 2023
Millions of Americans bought Levoit air purifiers because the box said "True HEPA." Now there's a $15 million settlement - and if you bought one between 2019 and 2023, you could claim your share before November 3.
What Is This Settlement About?
Vesync (US) Corp., the American subsidiary behind the Levoit brand, agreed to settle claims that it misled customers about the filtration performance of its Core and EverestAir air purifiers. The lawsuit - Sen et al. v. Vesync (US) Corp., Case No. 510627/2026 - was filed in Kings County Supreme Court in New York.
The alleged problem: labels reading "True HEPA," "HEPA," or "H13" on the purifiers and their replacement filters. The plaintiffs claim those labels were false or misleading. Vesync denies it did anything wrong, and no court has ruled on the merits - but the company chose to settle rather than litigate.
Levoit's Core line is among the best-selling air purifiers on Amazon, with hundreds of thousands of customer reviews. The potential class of affected buyers is large.
Who Is Eligible?
Check two things: the model and the date. You qualify if you purchased a Levoit Core or EverestAir air purifier - or a replacement filter for either - between August 29, 2019 and August 4, 2023, and the product was labeled "True HEPA," "HEPA," or "H13." Other Levoit models aren't included in this settlement.
You'll need proof of purchase. A receipt, an Amazon or Target order confirmation email, or your account order history typically works. The claim form at lapsettlement.com explains exactly what documentation is accepted.
How Much Will You Get?
The base payout is $10 per valid claim. If fewer than 1.5 million people file, each claimant could receive more - the $15 million fund distributes pro rata. If the fund is oversubscribed, payments are reduced proportionally.
Here's a detail worth knowing: Vesync is paying attorneys' fees of up to $5.24 million and service awards of up to $11,500 separately, outside the settlement fund. Every dollar of the $15 million goes to class members.
A fairness hearing is set for February 17, 2027. Payments won't go out until after that date, and any appeals could push the timeline further.
