Works as well as the Filtrete 1900 and 1200; vacuum your house frequently for best results

After moving into my house 2 years ago, I had the crawlspace and attic encapsulated and insulated, followed by installation of an energy recovery ventilation system and sealing of the baseboards of all outer walls. The HVAC consultants who did this work explained that my house is now extremely “tight,” i.e. the ERV brings fresh air and exhausts stale air out, and the house no longer leaks air. The last thing I want to do is upset the air pressure by choosing the wrong filter after the complicated renovations. Thus I tried the Filtrete 1500 because the top reviewer for this product said it had the lowest pressure drop. I think the Filtrete 1500 works as well as the Filtrete 1900 and Filtrete 1200 with charcoal in my house (I rate them all a 5), but no filter has been as important as frequent vacuuming. I use a Miele vacuum cleaner throughout the house once a week, then use a Swiffer WetJet on the hardwood floors. I also vacuum the curtains and baseboards about once every 2 months. If you do this consistently, dust bunnies never have a chance to form, and the air that recirculates in the house gets cleaner and cleaner over time. The extra house work pays off in better health and lower costs. After 2 years of this cleaning routine, my allergies improved so much that I stopped using antihistamines, and filters easily last 3 months.

I won a $50 bet with these air filters!

Origionally I bought these because i made a $50 bet with my husband that a quality air filter can help alleviate allergy symptoms in the home. He swore the only difference in air filters was the price. I don't know what I enjoyed more, the $50 or the moment I looked him dead in the eye & said those glorious words "I told you so"

Has made a positive difference, for everyone in our home. The other day, after our day was ending, we both had noticed how nice it was 2B able 2 enjoy our dinners w/o the sounds of runny noses, 👃👃👃being sucked up. Or 🌬 blown out in2 tissues, cloth napkins, or the closest piece of clothing that, that some1can find. In order 2 prevent them frm spraying a sneeze, all over the table, the foods & drinks or even the worst, others sitting next 2 the person doing the sneeze 🤧. Unfortunately, I 4got 2 take a B4 & after photos 📸 of the filter. However, I believe that it is extremely important 2 do so. It will B very helpful 4U 2 see 👀 how much of the stuff that is in the air, is actually filtered out. The reason I feel like this is important, is bcuz I have yet 2B able 2 leave the filter in 4 the recommended efficiency time. The filter is so effective the efficiency of the filter. Although, the recommended length of change every 3 months. After about 5 - 7 weeks, I have had 2 replace the filter in order 2 maintain the efficiency in cleaning the air. We live in a very clean area, that has well maintained grounds w/ groomed hedges trimmed trees & no non maintained areas around us. A clean neighborhood

Made into permanent air cleaner.

I tape this filter to a box style floor fan and let it run 24 hours a day. It removes particles as small as viruses. I have allergies, COPD, and am 80 y.o. Need all the help I can get. Have one in bedroom and another in living room. It helps A LOT. Have a larger one in a/c duct work. Get a box fan that has the control on the outer metal shroud, not in the center on the motor.

Be careful about timing when you order these...

These filters are great, and exactly what I wanted. One HUGE NOTE OF CAUTION is how and when you place your order. I recommend that you purchase them by themselves and not even within days of when you place any separate orders containing anything remotely heavy or sharp. Amazon will ship these combined with anything without regard for how fragile they are, and they'll come crushed or torn if you're not careful. I've had to return them which was a giant PITA because my nearest UPS store is 45 minutes away. Other than that, they've always been what I ordered, without any fakes.

Can breathe again

I was using a MERV8 filter from a hardware store brand. It was fine for the first few weeks, then i started having breathing problems - i.e. was having a hard time taking deep breaths once in a while in the house. I felt like my lungs were straining when i was trying to take those deep breaths. My house has some rugs and a big dog, but mostly hardwood floors, and haven't had these issues inside the house before. Resuming my allergy spray did not help. So I bought this filter from the hardware store last night and replaced the MERV8 one (it was barely 3 days old and almost new) - within about an hour, i was back to normal! No more breathing issues inside the house. If you are sensitive and prone to allergies. then this is a must buy - its not optional.

Finally Found a Air Filter that Works

I have tired many air filters over the years and have come across 2 problems. One, the filters that protect better, often restrict the air flow too much and have actually shut down my furnace. Two, the air filters that allow good air flow don't filter very well. This is the best air filter that I have found that will both filter well and also not restrict air flow. If you have any of the two issues I did, do not hesitate to give these a try.

Live in year-round pollen/allergy state - this does the trick

I live in a year-round allergy state where basic filters just don't do the job - have always used Filtrete but switched to MPR 1500 Healthy Living Ultra Allergen to combat allergies even in the winter. We live in a moderately wooded area of suburbia and took the advice NOT to go with the thickest Filtrete filter available, which would require replacing monthly instead. The Healthy Living Ultra Allergen filter seems to be the happy medium; only required replacing after 3 months during the winter and the same into the spring months - so far, noticeably better than the basic version. About to enter the summer months, expecting it to work just as well.

The best filters I have ever owned

I've been buying the Filtrete MPR 1500 Ultra Allergen filters for years. I will likely never go to another type of Filtrete, not to mention a different brand. If anything, I may go up a level or two if I ever anticipate lengthy construction projects in my home. However, I can say without a doubt that I feel my 3200 sq ft home has noticeably cleaner air. I've even had a slip of the mind and didn't change the filters for over four months before. Keep in mind, that's NOT a good idea. Nonetheless, the filters kept working fine and I noticed no degradation to my HVAC and during regular maintenance, there were no issues in my home system. Again, I strongly advise replacing them every three-ish months or less. I'd say that during normal operation, one should inspect the filters at least once a month. These filters are not restrictive whatsoever. I haven't noticed any issues in my heating and cooling for as long as I've used them--including when I accidentally went over in their lifespan. I'll keep buying these for as long as they make them and quality is maintained! Unlike some other reviewers, I have never had an issue with quality. I'd also like to point out that I do not care if the cardboard around the filters has tiny imperfections. It's hidden and has never affected the air quality or function of my system whatsoever. Buy these! You won't regret it.

Sturdy frames/pleats. Stores dust etc well. Subscription reminds me time to change filters!

I have used this brand and style of filters for quite some time in a previous home. I am glad to find them for quality, price and subscription on Amazon (I can remember to change the filters when they show up!). The frames are sturdy as are the pleats in the filter. My A/C has a strong pull in the return air vents (2 in the ceiling of the hall in my home). The previous owner's filters practically got sucked into the return air and the pleats were weak so they became deformed easily. The frames in these filters not only hold firm against the draw of the return air, but help me get them into the vent frame without wobbling on the way up and into the vent frame. The fit is firm and snug as well within the vent frames. I have to use the 6' ladder and reach above my head -- so the strength of the frame is extra necessary for me to install them. I've been peeking at them through the vents with a flashlight and can tell they are handling the lint and so forth much better than the previous filters. I have 2 dogs who come and go often inside and out. One sheds if she blinks. It's important to me that their dander, dust and so forth are caught by the filters and not go into the A/C unit. This is one reason I've used them for a number of years, it's just the first time I've had to install filters into the ceiling for an A/C.
