Filtrete 12x12x1 Air Filter, MPR 1500, MERV 12, Healthy Living Ultra-Allergen 3-Month Pleated 1-Inch Air Filters, 4 Filters

Good quality

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.

Arrived earlier than planned. We love these filters as I have allergies. These filters are a must have for me and they certainly do the job. Will certainly purchase again.

I was so impressed how fast delivery was and the packaging. The price was very competitive and overall best filter I have ever used. Will buy again

Works well but pricey

I have tried 4 or 5 different filters and this is the first that holds up, strong, wire mess and this is important as the others have a thin strip of cardboard and after about 3 weeks they end up expanding towards the fan. The Filtrete 16x25x1, AC Furnace Air Filter, MPR 1500, Healthy Living Ultra Allergen lasts and worth the money as it lasts 3 times longer.

I am a very cheap person when it comes to filters. And usually I find my self dusting constantly. I couldnt figure out why my house was always so dusty. Well, I finally decided to change the filter, and these are the ones I picked. Holy COW...I could tell a HUGE difference. It was like night and day. WILL NOT be going back to the cheap brand. Sometimes its ok to cut corners, but NOT with your filter.

FANTASTIC. I didnt realize how awful the cheap filters were that we were using until we bought this. The old one was literally see through- even with a pile of dirt. This ones thick with several layers to catch the grossness in the air. Photo of filthy old one, vs new.

The packing is easy to unbox and unwrap. They were difficult to install.. Used ACE filters before and they just dropped in to place with some slack. These filters need a screwdriver to act like a shoehorn in pushing them in. Very tight fit. They cost about 3x more than the ones I used before so far no noticeable difference.

Amazon has fixed the packaging problem. BEST FILTERS THERE ARE. KUDSO TO AMAZON! Filters are high quality and exactly what I wanted but seems like Amazon could figure out how to ship filters without them getting bent or crumpled in shipping. Shipping box was collapsed and both filters frames and filter elements were crushed and bent. I made do but its frustrating and thecardboard frames are impossible to bend back into correct shape and will never seal as well and allow some bypass air as a result.
