3m filter
This sturdy long lasting little filter works perfectly with the filter air purifier. I change mine every three months and use the purifier every day. It is easy to replace and dispose the this coming moact, but efficient filter.

Works as advertised
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This air filter works. I do not have allergies so can not attest to the allergen reduction. Seems to reduce orders as advertised since it sits in the kitchen and I have not smelled my garbage in a few months. The life span is not bad, just a little pricey for a filter to me.

Good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works! Very big. But it does its job! Sorta had a sound, like background noise. Which is to be expected. Dark color. Easy to use. I would definitely recommend to a friend. I'm not sure how much it costs because it was a sample.

Works well!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Filtrete Allergen Reduction + Odor Defense HEPA-Type Room Air Purifier Filter really does filter out allergen particles from the air, I've seen a significant difference in allergy symptoms when using it in our home.

No more dog smell!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have two autistic kids sleeping in the same room. One HAS to sleep with his dog and the other is REALLY bothered by the dog smell (so am I, but I don't sleep in there). This filter completely removed the smell from the room! We all LOVE IT!

Like having the allergen & odor in one
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was sample product I received and I really enjoyed trying it out. It helped keep us more allergy free inside the house. Our house is very old and can get a bit musty with all the rain we get, this filter helped keep those smells down so didn't have that old house smell.

Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am extremely allergic to dust mites and even the best cleaning doesn't seem to help my allergies much. This filter really seemed to help clear the extra "dust" from the air and significantly helped with my symptoms.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free for my honest opinion. My daughter has bad allergies and this filter helps a great deal in our house when it comes to the dust and allergens. She is less stuffy than before we started using this filter. Definitely will be buying from here on out.

Works Great! Easy to Install
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Frankly, it's difficult to review a filter. Many of them appear to be the same, with varying prices.

In this case, I think the filter did a better job than filters we had used in the past. It most certainly works well. I really can't know if it worked better than others, but with the specifications listed and the...

Excellent filters that screen out allergens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have numerous allergies, mostly to pollen, so I'm always careful about screening my indoor air - just in case. These filters really help with that. Plus, they help circulate the air near my cat's litter boxes. They really do this double duty well.

Breath of Fresh Air
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fit my Filtrete Air Purifier which I run in the living room about 12 hours a day. The system is quiet and you can smell the clean air coming's from it so I know it is purifying it. Living in LA, truly clean air can be difficult to come by. I probably should replace them more often...

Better nights sleep!

I don't wake up all stuffy anymore like I used to before using the air purifier. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion.

Cleans the air!
I am very happy with the quality of this filter. I have three dogs and two cats and suffer from allergies, so this is much needed . I keep this air purifier in my bedroom and it helps me sleep better at right.

Good so far
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't been using the new filter for a very long time, but having the windows open and with the high amounts of pollen out there this season I can say that since starting to use the filter I feel like the air is cleaner so it seems to be working for us.

Odor defense works!
I received this product free from 3M. The filter was easy enough to replace. If you forget how, the directions are on the filter itself so that is helpful. This particular filter has an added feature of odor defense. The odor defense helped in our house. We had tossed something in the trash that had left a stinky smell throughout the house. With our air purifier running...

Keeps my main room fresh and smelling clean!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a filter from 3M for my honest review. It was quick and easy to change out the filter. Just tap the top for the filter compartment to open and then switch it out. Once I switched it out everything was running smoothly again. Love having a clean room without having to constantly spray fresheners!
