I have tried cheaper brands but I always come back to filtrete. They have different merv ratings for different situations. I have Saint Bernards and lots of dog hair and dander and it takes care of it all.yes they are expensive but worth every penny.

I bought these "higher end" filters from Sam's Club (online) for a great price, and had them shipped directly to my home. I already knew the quality was good but I was shocked when the filters arrived with no damage whatsoever. No dents, no dings, no moisture . . . perfect. They were in better condition than what they would have been if I had bought them from a store in person.

I’ve been purchasing my furnace filters from Sam’s for a few years now and it appears these filters are much sturdier than those I have purchased in the past. Great upgrade in product and as always, great customer service/support. Thanks, Sam’s Club!

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.

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.

The filters themselves are good. The delivery, not so good…..one corner of shipping box was smashed and wet when received. Filters inside had corner damage and were wet. I live far enough away from Sam’s that I decided to use instead of trying to exchange…. Dried them out so should work okay.

When I saw these on sale at Sam's, I immediately went down to stock up. They clean the most miniscule particles of dust, debris, and other particles from you recycled air, and add years of life to you HVAC unit by preventing this particulate from getting caught up in your coils.

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!

We've used these 1600MPR type filters from Filtrete for several years in our 1400 sq foot, 2-story condo. It does a good job for its intended purpose as near as I can tell. Although I'm not able to see allergen, bacteria and viruses, I do always see a discoloration on the pleats when I change-out the filter at 3-month intervals.

I only buy Filtrete, they're the best. Unfortunately my 10 year old furnace died 2 days after I received these filters and I never had a chance to use them. Replacement furnace uses a different size and the company I used provides free filters for 2 years so I will be returning these. Will buy the new size from Sam's when the free filters run out or if I decide the free filters aren't doing the job.
