There’s a $15 million settlement fund, a $10 payment per valid claim, and a November 3, 2026 deadline to find out if you qualify.

Who Is Vesync and Why Are They Being Sued for False Advertising?
Vesync (US) Corp. is the company behind Levoit, one of the best-selling air purifier brands in the country, sold largely through Amazon alongside sister brands Cosori and Etekcity. Levoit built its reputation on “True HEPA” filtration claims right as wildfire smoke and COVID-19 drove a boom in home air purifier sales — exactly the language a rival, Dyson, challenged before the advertising industry’s self-regulatory watchdog in 2023. Vesync pulled the “True HEPA” claims from its EverestAir and Core 300 lines that same month, without admitting the products didn’t perform as advertised.
What Did Vesync Do to Levoit Buyers Between 2019 and 2023?
Four buyers — Devika Sen, Daniel Tepper, Rick Chen, and Jordan Menter — allege Vesync’s “True HEPA,” “HEPA,” and “H13” labels on Levoit Core and EverestAir purifiers and filters were false or misleading throughout the class period. Those aren’t just marketing flourishes: “H13” refers to a specific European filtration-efficiency grade, and “True HEPA” implies a filter meets the U.S. benchmark of trapping 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns. The lawsuit claims Levoit’s filters didn’t clear that bar.
Vesync unequivocally denies the allegations and hasn’t admitted wrongdoing. This isn’t an isolated dispute, either — Dyson’s 2023 advertising challenge over the same “True HEPA” language predates this lawsuit, and the same firms representing this class, Bursor & Fisher and Sinderbrand Law Group, have brought nearly identical “True HEPA” claims against Honeywell. That’s less a one-off mistake and more a pattern these firms are pursuing across the entire air purifier industry.

Who Qualifies for the Levoit Air Purifier Settlement?
Here’s exactly how to know if you’re included.
- Anyone who bought a Levoit-branded Core or EverestAir air purifier in the U.S. with “True HEPA,” “HEPA,” or “H13” language
- People who bought a replacement filter for one of those models — the purifier itself doesn’t have to have been bought during the window
- Purchases made specifically between August 29, 2019 and August 4, 2023
- Buyers who can show documentation of the original purchase date
Who doesn’t qualify: purchases outside the U.S., purchases outside the class period, and — per the settlement agreement — anyone who bought directly from Vesync’s or Levoit’s own website or app, since those purchases are covered by a separate arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in Vesync’s terms of service. That carve-out doesn’t appear in the plain-language notice, so it’s worth a second look if you bought straight from levoit.com rather than Amazon or a retailer.
A $10 payment won’t change anyone’s month. But it costs you nothing to check, and doing nothing means the money goes unclaimed instead of to you.
Levoit Buyers Outside the U.S. — Are You Still Covered?
No. This settlement only covers purchases made in the United States. If you bought a Levoit purifier or filter outside the U.S. with similar HEPA claims, check whether your country’s consumer protection agency has an open inquiry — several have looked at HEPA marketing claims industry-wide.

How Much Can Levoit Settlement Class Members Get? Up to $10 Per Person
Every valid claim pays a flat $10.00 digital payment, sent to the email or mobile number you provide. That amount only shrinks if the total value of valid claims tops the $15,000,000 cap — at $10 a claim, that’s room for 1.5 million people before anyone’s payment gets reduced.
Here’s the part that’s unusual for a settlement like this: Class Counsel’s fee request of up to $5,244,500, plus $11,500 in combined service awards for the four named plaintiffs, come out of Vesync’s pocket separately. They don’t reduce the $15 million set aside for claimants. In most settlements, attorneys get paid from the same pot consumers are drawing from — here, the fund is for you alone.
Payment goes out as a digital payment only — no paper checks — once the settlement is final and any appeals resolve, which the notice itself warns could take more than a year.
Levoit Air Purifier — Frequently Asked Questions, No. 510627/2026
Do I need a lawyer to file a Levoit settlement claim?
No. File directly at www.LAPsettlement.com. Class Counsel already represents the class at no cost to you, and Vesync pays their fees separately.
Is the Levoit air purifier settlement legitimate?
Yes. It’s a real case, Sen, et al. v. Vesync (US) Corp., No. 510627/2026, before Judge Katherine Levine in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Kings County, administered by Apex Class Action LLC.
When will Levoit settlement payments be sent?
After the February 17, 2027 Fairness Hearing, once the settlement is final and any appeals resolve — a process the notice says could take over a year.
What if I missed the Levoit claim deadline?
Claims submitted after November 3, 2026 won’t be paid. You’ll still be bound by the settlement’s release of claims unless you filed a written exclusion by that date.
Do I need a receipt to file a Levoit settlement claim?
Yes. Both claim paths on the settlement site require documentation showing the original purchase date, plus your name, address, email, and signature.
How much will I actually get from the Levoit settlement?
A flat $10.00 digital payment per valid claim, unless total claims exceed the $15,000,000 cap — in which case payments shrink proportionally.
What if I bought my Levoit purifier directly from Vesync’s website instead of Amazon?
The settlement agreement excludes direct website and app purchases, which are covered by a separate arbitration clause. If that’s how you bought yours, contact the administrator to confirm your status before filing.
Do I need proof I received a Notice to file a claim?
No. If you didn’t get an email invitation with a Claim ID and PIN, you can still file using the public claim form at www.LAPsettlement.com.
