Key Insights
Key Takeaway
Coway now holds the number one slot at three of the four engines, up from two on Aug 2. Levoit still leads on raw volume at 12 mentions but is first at Claude alone. The distance between volume and authority is the whole story in this category. Levoit is named more often than any other brand and converts that into the fewest top placements of the leaders.
Top Brands Summary
Levoit 12, Coway 11, Winix 7, Blueair 6, Honeywell 4. Twelve brands across 53 mentions and twelve responses, against 13 brands and 57 mentions on Aug 2.
