On the numbers, Eureka fields the deeper lineup (9 models), while Eureka has the cheaper entry point at ~$43, while Eureka leans harder into mopping (3 mopping machines). The table has the lineup-level numbers; the matchups below put individual models spec sheet to spec sheet.

Which brand to buy

For $160 to $200, the cordless stick decision comes down to the Levoit LVAC-200 ($200) or the Eureka ReactiSense 440 ($160). Both are cheap, both carry a 2-year warranty, and owners of both say the brushroll resists hair wrap. They differ in what they prioritise.

The Levoit is about weight. Owners call its 3.2-lb body so light they vacuum more often, and they love the wand that lies flat under beds. Its limits are carpet, where owners say it only skims medium and high pile, and a minority of units dying in the first months. The Eureka is about smarts: it senses dust and floor type and adjusts suction and brush speed on its own, and owners say it picks up everything from hair to crumbs. Its catch is runtime, which a reviewer measured at 30 minutes or less in auto mode, and weak agitation on plush pile.

Above that, the lineups diverge. Levoit goes up to the Levoit AERO Cordless Vacuum Cleaner with Auto-Empty Station ($299), whose bagged dock owners say saves them weeks of bin emptying. Eureka goes down and sideways instead, with corded uprights like the Eureka PowerSpeed NEU182B ($88), a canister and a $43 corded stick, plus a few robots; Levoit sells only cordless sticks.

Pick Levoit for a light stick in a hard-floor apartment, or for an auto-empty dock under $300. Pick Eureka for more pickup per dollar, or if you want a corded upright for carpet.
