Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Filtrete keeps the air noticeably cleaner and the household surfaces less dusty. We also have two persian cats who, on occasion, add some distinctive odors to the mix. It is really infinitely entertaining, but it is also infinitely long.

The filtrete product line is a merv 11 rating and typically commands a premium in price. The odor-absorption does seem to work, so it comes recommended to prospective buyers.



Cons

It is unbelieveable to me that 3m would release such a product. The charcoal is spayed onto the filter and already coming off in the package. Upsetting and disappointing.

Competitiveness


While i havent found a furnace filter that removes it completely this is the best ive found
