    Works great. I've been using them for years now. You get 2 filters for less than one from the manufacturer. they even give you reminder stickers to let you know when to replace. They last 6 months each filter.

    Easy to install and lasts about 6 months, and probably longer if you want it to. But I replace mine every January & July. The price has creeped up somewhat over the past couple years (but what hasn"t?) but it'still very reasonably priced.
