Coway Airmega AP-1512HH Air Purifier Replacement Filter Set, 1 Count (Pack of 1), White

When I moved to New York City I was diagnosed with reactive airway disorder which was causing a terrible cough. My doctor recommended I buy an air purifier so I did some research on the most highly rated brands. Coway was highly recommended and was affordable so I took a chance and bought it. Within a few weeks my cough disappeared. I love to have my windows open which only adds to air pollution, so this became essential for me. But anyone who has healthy children or people with health problems would benefit from this. It is fairly quiet, in fact silent on the low setting, and easy to clean. It has a three filter system and the refills are affordable. I find that the full three part filter lasts about six months. Even if you do not have health problems this air purifier is a must for anyone’s home.

In September 2021, I ordered a spare filter, but ended up not needing it, as I was out of town much of the year. I finally opened it today (October 2022) and it smells like a chemical fire. I put it in the purifier anyway, hoping the smell would go away, but I got a terrible headache, so I removed the new filter and threw it in the trash. On the other hand, the new filter that arrived a week ago (September 2022) has no smell. Im hoping whatever supply chain issues Coway was having are over.

We have a Coway air purifier and this is labeled as a Coway replacement filter, which it is. It is not a knock-off or another brand. It came with one HEPA (12 month) and two charcoal filters (6 months each). Although our last filters lasted a little longer than that, it is nice that they send two charcoal filters. Probably the easiest filter on any product Ive ever changed out. The face of the purifier pops off, gently pull out the filters, clean the surrounding area of dust if necessary, and pop in the new filters. Then reset the filter change button by pressing and holding. (On my model at least).

Replaced both filters and cleaned my air purifier in less than 5 minutes. The replacement filters were a perfect fit.

The product is as described and the replacement is the right one. My problem is that its fragile and came to me damaged. Please see pictures and dont be surprised.

Always get the brand name if you want a quality product. Love our Coway air purifier & the ease of installing the effective air filters. We have a foster senior dog that has accidents occasionally. We scrub & shampoo as much as we can with our nontoxic products, but there is only so much we can do. As soon as I replaced our filters & kicked the air purifier back on, her room was instantaneously odor free.

Bedroom comfort.

These work well but are overpriced. It’s not just Amazon, it’s everywhere.

The way this product is listed is very confusing. “White” and “New - White” are listed as two different colors, although they are apparently identical. Under “White,” there are two “sizes” listed: “1 Count (Pack of 1)” and “.New - 1 Pack.” The price of the second is over 4 times as much as the first. Why? What is the difference? Under “New - White,” only “#Pack of 1” is listed, at the same higher price. I bought color “White” and size “1 Count (Pack of 1)”, at the much lower price. I did not experience the odor that others have reported. Packaging and product appeared identical to a package I bought directly from the manufacturer last year. Given all the knockoffs of this product, I am concerned about whether the different “colors” and “sizes” at wildly varying prices all represent genuine OEM product. I seem to have gotten lucky and ordered the right thing, but there is no reason for this listing to be so confusing.

I was hesitant to purchase these replacements due to the number of negative reviews claiming there is some foul odor coming from the filters. I do not notice any odor at all. I suspect those reviews are trying to divert buyers to purchase cheaper knockoff filters. Trust amazon / coway and buy the originals, its worth the extra ~$10 or so to know youre getting an actual HEPA filter
