   Installed in residential HVAC system, with a Trane “Perfect Fit” air filter box.See pictures of side-by-side comparision between this filter and the Trane OEM product.Both have a heavy paper cardstock box/frame, and a metal mesh grid which supports pleated filter media. The FilterBuy box/frame is slightly less rigid (show some wrinkles) than the OEM and and does not fit as easily into the filter box as the OEM – the wrinkles in the paper and the uneven frame edges require a bit of finesse to work into the filter box. The OEM filter slides in and out of the filter box with ease.The OEM filter has 14 folded pleats, and the FilterBuy has 24. I believe both of these are MERV 8 filters, and I can’t opine on how the number of folds affects the performance. Neither filter indicates it’s MERV rating.This product is made in the USA and the OEM filter is made in Mexico. The OEM filter retails for ~ $55 each. For the cost savings, this product seems like a good alternative to the more expensive OEM filter.I replace my filter every 12-18 months, depending on seasons/use.

   I love these filters. They do an excellent job. The local companies that service heaters and air conditioning units charge way more for the same type filter.

   These filters were damaged slightly in shipment I’m guessing, and were incredibly difficult to install. Our normal filters slip right into place.

   Had to order these online since our local stores do not carry that large of a size. Glad they came in two packs, but they are huge to have to store. Seem of great quality and easy to install.

   I’ve been using this BRAND for years!! Before I discovered AMAZON I was paying $90 for” One Filter “at a local AC Co. I get 2 for less than the price of 1. Usually 1 lasts almost 2 yr. Extreme heat in Tx last yr and I had to change it out after 13 mo. Very satisfied!! Hope they keep carrying these at a bargain $$$

   This was the best price for a pleated filter for my Trane Perfect Fit filter enclosure. Half the price of an OEM filter. Merv 8 is all I needed; Merv 11 tends to restrict air flow, so I got Merv 8
