Verdict

Pros & cons

Der Dreo Macro Max AS ist ein reiner HEPA-Luftreiniger mit geprüften 500 m³/h und reicht für Räume bis 40 m². Feinstaub sinkt in einer Stunde um 96 Prozent, und die Anzeige lässt sich fürs Schlafzimmer abschalten. Der Haken: Der Sensor erkennt nur Partikel, die Aktivkohle ist knapp bemessen, und auf Turbo wird er mit 64,7 dB laut. Die Messwerte stammen vom Vorgänger Macro Max S.

Pros

  • Geprüfte CADR von 500 m³/h, genug für 40 m² bei fünf Luftwechseln
  • Senkt PM2,5 im 30-m²-Raum binnen einer Stunde um 96 Prozent
  • Anzeige per App abschaltbar, Lichtsensor dimmt bei Dunkelheit
  • Waschbarer Vorfilter, Kombifilter erst nach etwa sechs Monaten fällig
  • Sparsam: auf Stufe 1 nur 6,3 W, im Standby 0,8 W
  • Rein mechanische Filterung ohne Ionisator

Cons

  • Sensor erkennt nur Feinstaub, bei Gerüchen manuell hochschalten
  • Dünne Aktivkohle-Schicht, hartnäckige Gerüche bleiben im Raum
  • Schlafmodus mit 42,1 dB im stillen Schlafzimmer hörbar
  • Zeitplan nur per App, keine Automationen außerhalb davon
  • Keine Tragegriffe, Umstellen zwischen Zimmern bei 5,74 kg umständlich

Der Levoit Core 300 ist ein schlichter HEPA-Luftreiniger, der Schlafzimmer bis etwa 15 m² zuverlässig reinigt und im Schlafmodus leise genug für die Nacht läuft. Der Haken: kein Feinstaubsensor, keine Automatik, dazu für seine Leistung hoher Stromverbrauch. Kauf ihn nur, wenn er klar günstiger als der Core 300S ist.

Pros

  • Reinigt Schlaf- und Arbeitszimmer bis etwa 15 m² zuverlässig
  • Schlafmodus mit 37 bis 40 dB, Leuchten ganz abschaltbar
  • Einfache Bedienung mit Timer bis 8 h und Tastensperre
  • Filterwechselanzeige, Filtervarianten mit mehr Aktivkohle erhältlich
  • Steuerung per App, Alexa und Google Assistant

Cons

  • Kein Feinstaubsensor, keine Automatik und keine Luftqualitätsanzeige
  • Bis zu 35,5 W auf Stufe 3, der Core 300S braucht 21,8 W
  • Standardfilter bindet Küchen- und Katzenklogerüche kaum
  • Stufe 3 mit 50 bis 56 dB zu laut zum Arbeiten oder Fernsehen
  • Auf Stufe 2 dauert die Reinigung eines kleinen Raums 78 min
