Simply 14x25x1 Air Filter, Merv 8, MPR 600, 6 Pack, Furnace Air Filter for HVAC (Actual Size: 13.75"x24.75"x0.75") DUST, Pet, & Allergy Control

Merv 8 is the recommended filtering number for most average sized homes, ( 2,000-3,000 sq ft ), HVAC systems. A higher MERV number strains the blower motor by making the motor work harder to get air, which can lead to motor failure. A lower MERV number reduces the amount of dust & dander being filtered in the air of the house. That being said, there are many MERV 8 filters to chose from. Bottom line, there all the same with a different name. Yes, you will pay more for a "name brand" filter. But, you're just paying extra for advertising, in my opinion. These filters are built well, fit true to size, and do the job. Lastly, and most IMPORTANTLY, is that you must replace any filter every 30 days. So, that's 12 filters a year. These were priced right, so I bought a bunch of them. Clean filters will keep the duct work clear of dust buildup. So, it pays to replace them every 30 days, or you will be hiring a contractor to clean out you're ducts.

I have been very happy with these filters. I find that the 8 rating is a good balance between catching dust / particles / etc and not stressing the hvac system to an excess due to restriction of air flow. I have three levels and three units and find that the main level needs swapped about every 2 months. The other levels of the house see less action and often still look new after the generic 90 day point. The non scientific "how grey does it look" test is what I use to determine when to swap.

I’ve been using the Simply 20x24x1 Air Filters (MERV 8, MPR 600) for a while now, and they’ve exceeded my expectations for a mid-range filter. With pets in the house and some seasonal allergies, I needed something that could handle more than just basic dust—and this filter delivers.The actual size (19.75" x 23.75" x 0.75") fits snugly in my system, and installation was quick. The MERV 8 rating is a noticeable upgrade from lower-rated filters—it's able to trap dust, pollen, pet dander, and even some smaller particles that often make it past cheaper options. Since switching, I’ve noticed less dust on surfaces and a subtle but real improvement in air freshness.Each filter lasts about 2–3 months depending on air quality and usage, and with six in a pack, it’s a cost-effective way to stay on top of filter changes without constantly restocking.For anyone needing solid filtration without jumping to premium prices, this is a great choice—especially for households with pets or mild allergies.Pros:Effectively captures dust, pet hair, and pollenGood fit and easy to install6-pack is convenient and budget-friendlyNoticeable improvement in air qualityCons:May need more frequent changes in homes with multiple petsNot suitable for ultra-fine particles

I need a solid filter to install because of the build of my system. These work just fine and seem to trap better than the cheapos. If they were a bit less expensive this would be a Five Star.

These filters are a good replacement for my air ducts. They collect a few different microparticles to keep the air cleaner. I do replace them every 3 months and they do need that. But all filters should be replaced every three months. These fit perfectly in the vent. Some filters do not fit as well as these do. There is a spot to mark the date you put them in which i like as a reminder to replace. The cardboard around the filter is a decent thickness so it does not get crunched when installing. The price is better than local brick and mortar stores. very happy with these.

they were perfect. The filters were great and I liked the 6 pk. Saved in cost and trips to get them. A big thanks to amazon. I would have to drive 20 mi. 1 way to get them, U bought 1 at a time, and U had to hunt for them. I'm old retired and handy caped. Now I only leave town is ta go fishing. Thanks again.

I have to change my filters every 3 weeks because I live on a ranch, so I need something that's quality but not expensive. These do the trick, and my AC service guys were impressed during their summer check with how clean my system is. Work well, fit great, and great price.
