Verdict
Pros & cons
Der Leitz TruSens Z-1000 ist ein kompakter Luftreiniger ohne Sensor, der Feinstaub auf Turbo um 93 % senkt. Mit 95 m³/h CADR reicht er realistisch nur für knapp 8 m². Schon Stufe 1 misst 43,8 dB und pfeift hörbar, ein Nachtmodus fehlt – fürs Schlafzimmer taugt er nicht, gegen Kochgerüche hilft die dünne Aktivkohle kaum.
Pros
- Senkt Feinstaub PM2,5 in 18 m² binnen einer Stunde um 93 %
- Kompakt mit 3,5 kg und Griff im Deckel zum Umtragen
- Sparsam: 9,4 W auf Stufe 1, 0,2 W im Standby
- Filterwechsel in rund 5 min ohne Werkzeug
- Eigene Wechselanzeige für jedes Verschleißteil
Cons
- Schon Stufe 1 mit 43,8 dB und hohem Pfeifton zu laut fürs Schlafzimmer
- CADR von 95 m³/h reicht realistisch nur für knapp 8 m²
- Dünne Aktivkohleschicht bindet Kochgerüche kaum
- Kein Sensor, keine Automatik, kein Timer, kein Nachtmodus
- Leuchten nicht abschaltbar, nach Stromausfall bleibt das Gerät aus
Der Levoit Core 400S holt Feinstaub und Rauch zügig aus Räumen bis 32 m² und braucht dafür wenig Strom. Die Automatik reagiert schnell, App und Zeitpläne sind ausgereift. In Deutschland gibt es die gedrosselte EU-Version, und die 83 m² auf dem Karton sind unrealistisch. Der Haken ist der nicht waschbare Kombifilter: Läuft das Gerät täglich lange, brauchst du zwei Filter im Jahr.
Pros
- Senkt Feinstaub in 60 Minuten um 96 % in einem 30-m²-Raum
- Laser-Sensor schaltet bei Rauch fast sofort hoch
- Sparsam mit 23 W auf Turbo und 0,9 W im Standby
- Stufe 2 bleibt unter 45 dB(A), Nachtmodus um 25 dB(A)
- App mit Zeitplänen, Timer bis 24 h und Wochenverlauf der Luftwerte
- Filterwechsel ohne Werkzeug in rund zehn Minuten
Cons
- Kombifilter nicht waschbar, bei Dauerbetrieb nach sechs Monaten fällig
- EU-Version gedrosselt auf 400 statt 442 m³/h
- Angegebene 83 m² unrealistisch, real rund 32 m²
- Sensor erkennt keine Gase und Gerüche, hält Befeuchternebel für Feinstaub
- Standard-Aktivkohle zu knapp für Zigarettenrauch in Dauerschleife
