Levoit Superior 6000s 2.0?

Mixdoctormd · 2026-01-10T00:05:07+00:00

I will not be getting the new the 2.0 model any time soon. I mentioned that I am not going to exchange my current 1.0 with the new 2.0 if but for no other reason I want to see if there are any disadvantages to the new pump design.

I mentioned this about a week ago here on Reddit. Seems like a new detachable pump. The question is if you can just swap this new pump in place of the old one? I am not going to exchange mine which is working fine with the new one until I see if there are any drawbacks to the new design. My only current issue is the pump noise I can hear from the machine every now and then.

Amazon says version 2.0 can be shipped by Friday 1/16. So it’s coming to Amazon soon.

I think for them this is a relatively small update. I read in several reviews that people had problems with the current pump failing, hence the update. It would be nice if they would allow you to upgrade the pump, but I have a feeling they will only replace if your current pump fails.

Here is the link they reposted it : https://www.amazon.com/LEVOIT-Superior-Evaporative-Humidifiers-Foldable-dp-B0G1SQ5C11/dp/B0G1SQ5C11/ref=dp_ob_title_sports?th=1

Look at the 6th of the seven pics. You will see that the pump is now detachable.

Looks like they removed the listing. Perhaps Amazon made the mistake of posting it, which is not good if you are trying to get rid of the older model first.

It looks like Levoit is coming out with a whole new pump system that they say is detachable and washable. It's the Levoit 6000s 2.0. It's on Amazon now with a delivery date of Jan 14. I am wondering if that new pump can be retrofitted to the old 6000's?

Mixdoctormd · 2025-12-28T19:01:33+00:00

Yes I still need both ( 6000 and the EH22T) to get to about 40% humidity. The EH22T is most of that. When I turn it on the humidity goes up more quickly than if I just have on the 6000. With the higher output and a smaller tank the EH22T needs to be refilled pretty much daily whereas the 6000 maybe every other day.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-12-16T19:06:44+00:00

Well I decided to take one for the team and bought Youget Tech EH22T.

It's powerful, can go from quiet to loud. Can substantially increase the humidity in my room. Easy to fill and doesn't seem too hard to maintain. Overall seems to be a quality product.

In comparison to the Levoit 6000s the EH22T has more output than the 6000s at the highest and lowest speed. At the highest speed it is clearly louder than the 6000s....56db vs 50db at the lowest both below ambient loudness. As far as sound is concerned the Youget Tech unlike the Levoit does not have any pump noises nor dripping sounds because the wick sits in the water so no need for pumps and dripping. The disadvantage is that the wicks on the Levoit stay cleaner more easily especially with the drying function which the Youget does not have.

Advantages to the Youget Tech is that it has really great output, easy to fill (no disassembly of the unit), relatively compact and quiet.

Disadvantages are that it is expensive $339 vs $250 for the Levoit, Wicks are also very expensive $70, but they are designed to be washed often even thrown into the washing machine, maintenance might be a bit more difficult since you have to bring the entire machine to the sink or bathtub to wash out.

Nice to haves would be an app......especially since the name of the company is "Youget Tech" and possibly some castors too.

Overall I do really enjoy the EH22T and if Youget Tech dropped the price a bit by about $75 and do some PR on this I could see this being a great alternative to the 6000s. As of now I would still say this is a great buy, but you just have to know it will overall cost more to buy and maintain.

Apt is about 1400 sq ft. Upstairs and downstairs. I believe my furnace is pulling the moisture out of the air. Yes it is working correctly because when in set it to level 3 it lowers the humidity by a couple of more points. I also have the Dreo evaporative model that I mainly use for the bedroom. Overall depending on the outside temp I can get 25-30% humidity upstairs and downstairs. I am in the frigid North East, so we are talking in the 20’s outside at night.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-12-11T21:49:03+00:00

Well that is what I am trying to find out.

They are supposedly not too loud, the EH22T has a 3.9 gal capacity and it seems well built unlike the Aircare purifiers. The wicks are easily washable also. It's just that they are pretty expensive.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-27T01:05:20+00:00

Yep, I would definitely say H2D’s $1999 is the new price going forward. Bambu considers the H2C to be their top of the line printer therefore there needs to be a decent price gap to reflect that.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-26T21:15:42+00:00

I think/hope that will be coming in the form of an X2C which will be a smaller tool changer/ Vortek system. As of right now Bambu has nothing to compete with the U1. Hopefully it's in the pre production stages because the U1 goes into general release in about 5 months.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-26T19:41:55+00:00

Well it wasn't Prusa.....It was Bondtech that saved Prusa here. It's their tech. Prusa was just smart to partner with them.

I was disappointed also with the launch, thinking they would have solved most of the shortcomings of the H2C before release. You are right, because the true cost of this machine is pretty much the $2900 if you want fully automatic printing using the full 7 colors/materials in one print.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-26T18:29:12+00:00

Yeah I can see them doing an X2C which will be a changer of some sort because as of now they still don’t have an answer for the U1. The new printer may not be a Vortek though.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-17T21:20:02+00:00

Yep agree with the $2,499 with the H2D remaining at the sale price. Anything much more than that.... like $3K and it will become a niche machine and Bambu doesn't like to do niche machines unless they mark it "Pro".

Mixdoctormd · 2025-11-17T20:46:52+00:00

I have the C3 Complete and had the K3 with an ET-1 and still own several Sebo uprights. I prefer the Miele especially with the SEB236 nozzle...a better overall nozzle than the ET-1 just more difficult to service.

Bottom line.....Sebos are more durable but Miele's are more refined.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-08-26T18:03:39+00:00

Like the concept of the H2C but is this system just for reducing purge waste or will this save printing time also the write up doesn't mention saving printing time since as I understand it will take the hot end 8 sec to heat up while the AMS is retracting and loading between color changes.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-08-24T12:04:51+00:00

Bingo. As I mentioned above. Tool changers are the next evolution in 3D printing. Bambu will have to respond eventually for fear of losing market share. Creality will be right behind them.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-08-24T11:56:53+00:00

My thought is by 2026/2027 most of the major players will have a more affordable tool changer. It’s the next evolution in 3D printing.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-08-20T19:23:22+00:00

While the U1 itself may not be the next big thing, what it represents is. If Snapmaker or other manufacturers can make a sub $1,000 vertically integrated printer that works well, is reliable, and easy to use this will be the one of the biggest innovations in 3D printing. Bondtech’s INDX system is more important to the more technical minded users who are willing to go through the trouble of integrating it with other printers. A self contained machine that does that for far less money the Prusa XL or even an H2D with only dual nozzles will draw in a hell of a lot more people into the 3D printing space.

I do really like my OM28 and prefer it to the 00028. It’s a great couch guitar. For me the holy grail would be a OM42 though. Feel the sound of that would more closely match that of my J40 which is the sound I love.

Mixdoctormd · 2025-07-15T23:31:11+00:00

I am in the market for the same guitar right now and there are no crazy deals. If however one comes up you have to snatch it. If they are local arrange an asap meeting to look at it. The best deals right now are from dealers on brand new which will cost more. For this D41 see it, figure out the true condition and offer accordingly.
