Summary: 5 Stars
I buy these filters for the vaporizer I keep in my sons room. In a dry climate, this is a must have. If this is the model filter you need - you really can't find a better per unit price! I love a good deal and this is definitely a good deal.Product Review: Disappointing for the price
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought these filters to replace the original filter in my Vicks Cool Mist humidifier. In the winter I use my humidifier a lot (all night and often during the day). What was disappointing about these filters was that the metal reinforcements put into the filters rusted within a day of placing them in the humidifier. This made it hard to tell when the filter was worn out (and it just looks gross). I used each filter for about a month, and for ~$20 per set, they seemed too expensive for the amount of time they lasted. I also bought some Pro Tec Humidifier Tank cleaners ([...]) and they seemed to make the filter last a little longer, but, of course, didn't solve the rust problem.Product Review: Extended Life? Pure marketspeak
Summary: 1 Stars
I'd like to know how long a non-extended-life pad will last. These are made with one perforated cylinder of foil (with opposing sides very poorly connected - if they are connected at all), surrounded on each side by a cylinder of perforated *paper*. I think it's just the paper that's holding the cylinder together. It will last a month if you are lucky. Don't plan on soaking it in vinegar, as it will just fall apart. I think they call this "planned obsolescence". This is obviously where they make their money, similar to ink-jet printers and their costly ink cartridges.
Product Review: Fantastic Filter
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this filter for my Vicks V3100 home humidifier. I regularly performed operational maintenance on my humidifier, including washing the filter. Despite the maintenance the filter slowly became discolored from the natural pollutants and minerals contained in my water. The Protec Extended Life Humidifier Filter helped solve my problem.
It is inexpensive and effective only if I carefully care for the filter. To avoid frequently replacing the filter, I use a procedure that can extend the life of the filter. When the filter forms a crust, I soak it for awhile in vinegar water (usually 1 part vinegar to 4 parts water). After soaking I carefully rinse the filter several times in fresh water. Then I treat the water with Kaz KWT-8 Humidifier and Vaporizer Water Treatment.
So, after several months, I no longer have a problem with the filter or my humidifier.
I recommend this filter
