I like these better than those from other brands

I usually have used these in the past and recently purchased a different brand. I prefer these. They are better constructed and appear to better clear the air.
Decided to try this filter to see if it could remove household dust. For the last 9 years I have used the 1085 filters but they let too much dust through them. After the merry maids finished I would change the filter then test for dust for a week. These filters allowed dust to accumulate. Not good!
Had problems breathing, eyes itched, migraines nonstop. Finally went to an ears, nose, throat specialist and was diagnosed with numerous severe allergies. Started on medication but it was not doing the full job. We saw these filters and decided to try them. What a difference! I could not believe how dirty the filter was. The first time we replaced it after the three months which is recommended. We changed it monthly for three months following that than every two months for the next 3 changes. Each month it became a bit less dirty. We could not be happier with the cleaner air!
We bought a new furnace 10 years ago and didn't like the flimsy filter that the company provided. I researched filters online, in particular for old homes with pets, and found this filter. I am happy when I change it and find all sorts of particles, large and small, that have been caught in the filter.
