This was a good deal as I usually pay about 15.00 for one of these. Good brand, really improves air quality in our home when we replace these once a month. I would recommend this product!
Allergy Be Gone 
2008-08-27
Allergy Be Gone advertised and collected my money for a set of six furnace filters. They sent only one. They were notified but did not make up the shortage. Amazon then refunded my money under their A to Z guarantee.
Don't Believe it - NOT a 6-pack 2008-08-18
I should have believed some of the other reviews when they said this isn't a 6-pack. I only received one filter. The company refunded most of my money and all of the shipping cost, but how many unsatisfied customers will it take before the description is changed.
Worth The Price 2008-06-14
Several of us in our family have severe sinus & allergy problems. These filters do a fantastic job, definitely worth every penny.
Does it's job.

In our opinion, this is almost as good as it gets for a disposable home furnace filter. The construction quality is top of the line. The filtering efficiency is outstanding. The Filtrete Micro Allergen 1000 has our second highest rating of 5 STARS. Please note that these Filtrete filters measure approximately 0.3 inches smaller than the stated size in order to conform to industry standards.
Not Bougus List Price 2008-02-26
This guy doesn't know what hes talking about with a bougus list price giving this item 1 star. It is not ranked that way. Ignore him and buy this great product.
Try the Advanced Allergen filter if you have allergies or pets

My house uses forced air for heating. The disadvantage of such a system is that it distributes the dust in the air everywhere in the house. However, it is supposed to be possible to filter out the dust. Over the years, I have steadily increased the quality of the filter that I use for my forced air heating system. However, until now I have not noticed any obvious difference in my allergic reactions that seem to start with the heating season.
There are two cats in my house. I have read that cat dander, tiny flakes of cat skin shed by the cats, is five times smaller than household dust particles. It stays in the air much longer than ordinary dust before it settles. Because of its small size it requires a more efficient filter to get it out of the air.
Until this year, I have used of variety of filters with mixed results. However, this year, I started using the 3M Advanced Allergen Filters, the ones in the blue wrapper. These have a 3M Microparticle Performance Rating of 1500, but do not have a MERV rating listed. MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value and is a number from 1 to 12, produced from a test designed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). A higher MERV rating indicates better filter performance. 3M uses particle data between 0.3 and 1.0 micron size to calculate a Microparticle Performance Rating or MPR. The higher the MPR, the better the filter. However, higher rated filters cost more.
Here are some of the Filtrete filters offered by 3M:
Dust & Pollen Filter, Microparticle Performance Rating 600,
MERV rating of 8
Micro Allergen Filter, Microparticle Performance Rating 1000,
MERV rating of 11
Ultra Allergen Filter, Microparticle Performance Rating 1250,
MERV rating of 11
Advanced Allegen Filter, Microparticle Performance Rating 1500,
MERV rating not available
The difference made by the Advanced filter was immediately obvious. My running nose stopped running. I assume that the new Advanced filters must be taking out more of the dust in the air including the cat dander. I have not noticed a change in the speed of the circulated air. The additional cost of the Advanced filter is worth it if you have allergies or pets. However, if you are happy with a lower-rated and lower-cost filter, then you can continue using that one I suggest that you check Amazon and vendors on the web to get the best price.

It was nice to find the size I needed on line. The stores that normally carried that size were all out. My supply was delivered promptly and it was a pleasure to have them when I needed them.
