Vitamix FoodCycler Replacement 2-Pack Filter, eight inches, Black

Great product... Every little bit helps my recycler... Would be good if I could recycle ♻️ the filter also...

When I first got the cycler, I was concerned about this need to replace filters every 3 months. Especially since I run it inside. it had me on the fence. Went ahead and purchased it and I use regularly, probably once every 7-10 days and the filter light JUST came on surprisingly after purchasing it in Oct. 2020. Added new filters and can smell , or not smell rather, a clear difference with replacing filters. Replacing once a year for $25? I can swing that.

Nothing to dislike about the replacement filters - the price perhaps? But I knew what that would be before purchasing the FoodCycler. I like getting a warning that the filters need replacing and thanks to Amazon Prime there is no downtime in ordering, receiving, replacing, and using the FoodCycler again.

I love Vitamix FoodCycler so much. I have been using it every 2, 3 days for 20 months now. And I wasnt sure when to change the filters; I totally forgot about it. But last week it suddenly started smelling really bad. Then I realized that I need to change the filters. I got this order, delivered quicker than expected, and priced better than regular price. I replaced it and used FoodCycler tonight, and there were no more bad smell anymore. How simple is that! Replacing this is pretty simple and intuitive.

It is very hard to get these from the manufacture. I was very pleased to get them here

These are oem units so they are exactly what I needed.

Have the food cycler so was happy to find on Amazon

Nice to have a replacement set. Now I can pry open the ones that came with the unit and recharge them with new charcoal now. Constantly buying replacements isn’t really necessary but also a cheap alternative.

Filters are filled with standard activated charcoal pellets. Twist or pry off the top carefully to keep from spreading pellets everywhere. Replace pellets with pellets sold in bulk on Amazon or wash pellets with detergent, rinse and dry in convection oven for fifteen minutes at 200 degrees fahrenheit. Otherwise discarding the plastic filter cylinders is counterproductive to the goal of recycling food waste and protecting the environment. If you dont want to reuse the pellets, put them in your compost bin or directly in your garden.

Our filters lasted right at the year mark, so thats certainly acceptable to us. Any little bit to help our planet, Im happy to help. Easy to install.
