Filter-Monster - Replacement Air Filter - Compatible with IQAir HealthPro Series V5-Cell Gas & Odor Filter

Replacement for IQAir Charcoal VOC filter easily replaces the OEM at a lower cost and easy to install in 3 minutes. Have replaced this unit 3 times based on the OEM preset clock. Works just like OEM. Unable to find any quality issues. Will purchase again.

I’m always skeptical to by filters that aren’t from the original company. However, my V5 filter was WAY over due for a replacement and IQ air has been completely out of stock. I have a chronic illness (MCAS) whcih makes me highly sensitive to particles in the air so these machines are ESSENTIAL for me. When I opened the package I was a little hesitant it definitely feels slightly cheaper than IQ airs filter. However, there were no leaking carbon pellets. Nothing was out of place it just felt a little more fragile. I was also hesitant due to some other reviews saying it obstructed airflow. Well, after installing...I must’ve REALLY needed a new filter because in a few minutes I could tell my air quality was changing for the better. I own two dogs who shed a lot and thus create a lot of dust and dander in the air. I was so happy I decided to take the chance and bought this! Works great! Cheap price and with IQ air being out of stock for so long I’m so happy I found something that works and added bonus: saved some money!

Terrific

Still have yet to reach life's end as now rarely use the air filtration unit.

The first one I received had a smell kind of like burnt wood... which is understandable, but not acceptable. I contacted the seller and they sent me a replacement asap. The replacement didn't have the odd smell and has been working great.

It has an awful burnt smell that I did not experience with the name brand filter. It is also poorly made. I thought it might go away with some time but it did not. I had to go back to the real thing. It is not solid cardboard, there are glued on pieces of paper on the bottom that were falling off when I opened it.

This filter seems to be a good value as opposed to the OEM filter. It took me a while to install it, but that was on me. For some reason I was trying to put it in upside down. Once I figured that out, it slid right into place. It does not seem to be quite as well made as the original, but I don't think that will have any effect on the way it works, and since it just sits inside of the air filter, it doesn't get wear and tear, so it should be fine. I would buy again, definitely. I've had it for several months now.

The quality of Monster Filters is as good or better than the original. I just returned another brand to Amazon because the quality was not good at all. The cardboard was flimsy and the pellets were coming out. This is the second filter I bought from Monster Filter and they'll be the only company that I will buy filters from, from now on.

Had to remove immediately after installation due to terrible smell filtering through the room.
