They were received in good condition from the shipping company. We use these filter because I have a severe respiratory condition, These filters help keep down microscopic particles that could exacerbate my condition. In my option they are excellent filters.

I have used these filters for several years and don't have to change them out as often as other brands. Although it states they last 3 mos, I usually swtich them around 2 mos in summer. I don't have much along allergys so I can't speak to it's effectiveness or maybe that's why I don't have allergys :-)

My friend recommended these filters and I'm very happy using them. The air is a lot cleaner; I don't have to change the filter out for 3 months. I highly recommend, although pricey, it is definitely worth the money. Also, they have a reminder when to change out filters.

I always buy 3M filters. They feel like they work the best and are well worth the extra money than the plain-jane filters. Not only do we live on a gravel road in the country, we have 2 dogs that are inside/outside and shed. I also have some allergies, These filters help tremendously!

I know HVAC workers will cringe when I say this, but we really like these better than the cheap ones they HVAC workers say to use. I don't think they're a waste of money. Having the pets we have, being smokers, and living in an older house that's hard to keep dust and dirt out these help much better than the cheap ones. Instead of changing the cheap ones 1 or 2 times a week, we can sometimes go almost a month with these

Rating is not based on scientific analysis but based on observation and long-term use. The 1600 MPR appears to substantially reduce as claimed pollen, pet dander, smoke, bacteria and viruses. The latter two elements cannot really be determined. Changed every 2-3 months and the amount of collected debris in the filter is supported of filtering.

This is a really great deal for filters that need to be changed every 30 days. It gets so expensive when you have to buy them one at a time so I was really happy to find a four pack! They have all sorts of sizes and honestly, you can buy three of them and get by for a whole year!

These are good filters. They are good quality and stronger than the cardboard filters. These have a wire mesh on both sides and stay firm and strong with the air flowing through them. They hold a lot of dust and keep the AC unit very clean. Keeps a lot of dust from flowing into the house. Keeps the air cleaner.

These are the best filters we found at any store, including the local hardware stores. We wait for them to go on sale, and usually buy two packs, as we change our filter every month. Thus far, we feel that these filters are helping to keep our furnace cleaner and our air clean. Definitely recommend.

Seems to have only a few less pleats as a 1900 limited info out there on these but I'm glad to have a budget option that seems to perform well and let's the HVAC unit breather easier. More pleats equal better air flow and less static pressure for your system when it starts to get dirty. Less stress on HVAC units
