the width was just 1/8 too wide, but I was able to install it.
Lighter filter than what was replaced. Not as many pleats (less filter media), not as sturdy as the brand it was replacing, and the filter media was not supported as well by the cardboard structure. I think (but am not certain), both had the same merv rating.
You indicated that the filter was a Skuttle brand filter, but it was an OEM filter, and the price was 60% more than what I paid for the last Skuttle filter I purchased.
These filters DO NOT FIT the Skuttle receptacle. They are 4 15/16 inches thick (i measured them) and the Skuttle filters are 4 13/16 inches thick (and fit tight at that thickness). The extra 1/8 of an inch stops them from being able to slide them in without crushing them. DO NOT BUY THESE AS A SKUTTLE REPLACECMENT.
