Filtrete 16x20x1 AC Furnace Air Filter, MERV 5, MPR 300, Capture Unwanted Particles, 3-Month Pleated 1-Inch Electrostatic Air Cleaning Filter, 6-Pack (Actual Size15.69x19.69x0.81 in)

I've been using the Filtrete 24x24x1 AC Furnace Air Filter (MERV 5, MPR 300) for a few months now, and I'm very satisfied with its performance. These filters are a solid choice for anyone looking to improve basic air quality in their home without breaking the bank.Installation was quick and easy—the actual size (23.81 x 23.81 x 0.66 inches) fits perfectly in my vent. The pleated design adds surface area, which I believe helps it trap more dust and particles compared to flat filters. While it’s not designed for heavy allergens or smoke, it does a good job of capturing larger particles like dust, lint, and pet hair, which makes a noticeable difference in daily air freshness.The 3-month lifespan is accurate for average households; I change them quarterly and can see the dust build-up when I swap them out. The 6-pack option is convenient and economical, saving me time and trips to the store.If you're looking for a no-frills, dependable filter to maintain general air cleanliness, this is a great option. Not for high-sensitivity environments, but excellent for routine home use.Pros:Easy to installGood value for the 6-packImproves basic air qualityReliable 3-month useCons:Not suited for homes with allergies or heavy pollutantsMERV 5 rating means limited fine particle filtration

I use to use off brands now I know why name brand is better at times and this is one of those times the fit in the register was tight so that made me think about the others that have small gap around them and why I had to clean coils so often because of all the air bypassing the filter

These Filtrete air filters are my go-to choice every time. They fit perfectly, are easy to install, and do a great job of keeping dust and allergens out of the air. I noticed a big improvement in air quality after switching to these. Plus, the MERV 5 rating is ideal for regular home use without restricting airflow. Great value for a multi-pack—highly recommend!

As far as I can tell, they're working. Fast delivery, did not have to waste an afternoon going to a big box store hunting for the correct filter. Price was comparable with other retailers.

I used to have to order my filters from Home Depot and then go pick them up. Sometimes I forget I can get everything from amazon. Having this hard to find size is a problem at stores. These seem to last a long time even with a cat in the house they don't clog up even when I leave them in too long.

18X24" MERV 5 MAXIMUM. Decent filters. Anything higher will restrict the airflow of the air handler. Especially on a variable speed air handler. I am a A/C company owner. You can take my advice or not. I also advise installing a UV high quality light in the air handler to prevent Black Mold. A high quality UV system will cost up to $1,500 installed but so well worth it. The UV light only comes on when the unit is running. Not constantly on like the cheap ones. My free professional advice of the day.

I only order these filters- we have dogs and are clean freaks because of them. These filters help cut down not only dust but pet hair & odor. And it doesn't affect our air flow. Perfect size, and fit. Quality made filters!

Like the fact that I can get a pack of affordable filters.And this six pack is perfect for me. Last about 9 month with every 3 month change out. With needing to change 2 of them.Fits perfectly just like the rest of the filter brands.it’s good quality and gets its job done.
