Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. I ordered two different sizes. The first arrived no problem and UPS handed it off to a subsidiary RoadieXD. The next order was never delivered and the representative said it was because there was an incomplete address. Again, UPS handed it off to RoadieXD. Tried customer service several times and got no help. I am now out $80. Don’t use them! I will never again!

not trust worthy

first time I used them they sent my filter to the wrong location, I had to get PayPal involved to get my filter reship to the right location.

stupid me !
Now I just reorder a bunch of filters, guess where they went??
YEP! the wrong address, now they refused to ship filter anywhere , or return my money .
Why one might ask?
they blame PayPal, that PayPal sent them the wrong address twice,
1-The address is and old address I haven't lived in for years.
2-paypal has the right address because I check PayPal whit I was waiting them to pick up form hold.
the address is correct.
now I have case again for the second time, good news I found a new supplier, so good FN bye to FILTER BUT

BAD COMPAMY,
poor service, poor everything.
this company needs to learn customer is always right .

Give me my money back ... FOOLS !

I ordered a 16x25x4 set of 4 filters.
When I received the filters, they were not the size stated. The phone help didn't know that the stated size is wrong, that they have "nominal" sizes and you cannot get a 16x25x4 filter unless you order a custom size filter. They would not accept all 4 filters back. I was out the money for 1 filter plus shipping. A worthless filter as it is short in all 3 dimensions and cannot be used in the furnace. I find that they are a deceptive company, as they do not make it clear that they do not sell what they advertise.

Misrepresentation of furnace filter sizes.

Filters were not the size they stated they were. I ordered 20 x25 x5 and it came 20 x 25.5 x 5 and does not fit. I ordered these filters over a year ago to have on hand and just went to replace my filter and discovered they do not fit. Not I read the company sucks and is not only difficult to return to they are reluctant to take them back or want to charge for the returns even though they were at fault. This company is a fraud in my opinion

First Time Customer - Zero Complaints

As a first-time customer, I’m very satisfied. My office requires 7 vent filters, and this was the only site that allowed me to order exactly what I needed—no more being stuck with odd leftovers from packs of 4. I also appreciated the option to include one of our larger back-office filters in the same order and set it up for autoship, making future replacements seamless. While that larger filter was slightly pricier than buying locally at Lowe’s, the convenience of managing everything in one place is well worth it. The prices for the standard filters were among the best I’ve seen, and the quality met my expectations with no issues. Shipping was impressively fast—my order shipped the next day and arrived within 2–3 days.

I ordered a filter for my dehumidifier

I ordered a filter for my dehumidifier, which is in my attic that I cannot access a knee and air conditioning company to do. They gave me the size. I ordered the size from filter by and it's not the right one not filter by's fault, I called them up to return it. And they told me it was a custom filter which sounds totally ridiculous, because they have all the numbers on their website and they won't allow me to return it. I'm extremely unhappy about it because I don't have money to throw away. I cancel the subscription. And uh, I have to eat the money, I am. So angry about it, I'm calling the Better Business Bureau. I'm calling my credit card and I'm giving this review that is totally ridiculous. I'm sure there's more than one person in the world that has the size of this filter which on other sites is common. If I could give it no stars, I would

Size advertised vs actual size WAY off…

Be very careful when buying from this company and absolutely triple chech the ACTUAL size of their filters. I bought a six pack of 12x24x1. When used, the filter actually slipped past the sheet metal guides and was literally falling into the blower area. Reason was due to the fact that what they advertised as 12” width was only 11-3/8” as compared to the normal 11-3/4” other manufacturers build to. As I bought these six months in advance of use I’m out on the cost of these and just need to chuck them. BUYER BEWARE
