VEVA HPA300 HEPA Filter Replacement Compatible with Honeywell Air Purifier - 3 Pack of HEPA Filters w/ 4 Precut Activated Carbon Pre-Filters & Replacement Filter R

Weve been using the VEVA pre-filters and True HEPA filters for years now. Theyve been outstanding quality (especially since theyre true HEPA, not HEPA style), with the pre-filters being thicker and more substantial than the official big-name brand ones by far - about twice as thick (dont worry, they still fit into the slots, you just have to tuck them in a bit more). This means theyre doing a much better job of trapping particles, which is a necessity for us. The downside to this set is that the pre-filters do need to be cut to the right size for your unit, as theyre made to be able to fit a number of styles/sizes. Its a very small inconvenience that we gladly deal with to get this quality of item at this price. I dont see us switching brands any time soon.

The price of the filters has increased considerably in the last couple of years. If that wasn’t bad enough, the black precut filter is now 1/2” smaller in width so now the pre cut filter barely attaches to the velcro. Also note, the outside of the precut filter leaves a lot of dust that the pre-filter is supposed to catch so that’s more cleaning, thanks Honeywell (pun intended).

The pieces fit a n do t he we ork well.

I was concerned about buying off-brand replacement filters for my HPA300 but didnt run into any of the problems that other reviewers have discussed: 1) The filters I received were all the same color (very white) and fit nicely into their slots. A couple of the shorter edges were bowed in by a millimeter or two, but I checked my original filters and they had the same problem, so, whatever. 2) The pre-filter fit well and covers the velcro strips. The thickness of the pre-filter is approximately the same as that of the original. The pre-filters come folded, both length-wise and width-wise. They dont seem like things that you should fold, but I cant actually think of a reason why not. They wouldnt fit into the box otherwise anyway. 3) So far Ive only been running the purifier for a few minutes with the new filters but there is no odd chemical smell. I think the exhaust air doesnt smell as obviously clean as it did with the original filters, but it doesnt smell dirty or bad or chemical-y. The difference in smell might also be my imagination. 4) With the new filters, the purifier makes a BIT of a deeper noise overall than it did with the OEM filters. I dont know if that means its working harder to pull air through the filters, or what. I almost always set the purifier to its medium setting, so it doesnt really matter to me if the device has to work harder, it has some headroom. If I had bought enough OEM filters to replace all the filters in my HPA300, it would have cost almost as much as a entire new HPA300. Ill be darned if Im going to do that. These are a fraction of a price and they seem to be Good Enough, so that translates to five stars from me.

+Cheaper than OEM +Works -Doesnt fit compared to the OEM -Carbon filter is slightly shorter than OEM. This causes a small gap that allows all the dust to hit the HEPA filter. Approximately 1/2 gap. -HEPA filter needs to be jammed in. Crinkles a little in the corners. =It works, but the short carbon filter is annoying. Have to tape off the grill to cover that missing section. =Probably would buy again with discounts, but not full price. =Will try other brands

Works as advertised

Value for money and changing out every 4- 6 months. I have 3 air purifiers running 24 hours around the clock.

They seem to do a very good job cleaning the air, because they end up dirty just like the Honeywell ones. I did have an issue and the customer service people responded positively very quickly.

Happy with the filters. They are good replacements.

Easy pack for quick installation
