Considering the reduction in avalability of filters for this model, would you buy this model again? It is offered at a reduced price I noticed.

Yes. We have birds and it has helped keep the dust down. We actually own two. We wash the one not in use and let it dry and always have an extra to put in.

I've been testing my new Botvac80 the past couple days. On the first few cleaning runs the dust bin fills up and I have to take it out and clean it (very quick and easy) plus clean the filter and possibly the brush (takes 5min or less) Shouldn't be expensive to maintain if the filter lasts several months with regular cleaning, but only time will tell. Right now extra filters are not in stock and it might be quite sometime before the price comes down on them too. Hopefully the brush and battery will last a long time too and not need expensive replacement, but that too only time will tell.

Same Model , new advertising, think about it, germs stuck in a permanent filter ? Model went from 50250-n permanent filter to 50250-s long life filter.

Ther are probably different options, but I've not found them. Even at $90, getting the full set of filters is only a quarter a day. I just replaced mine after about a year, and the unit is working a lot more efficiently. I did find that if you run a hand vac over the odor sensor, it works better too.

I'm not sure. The specs seem to be the same. Could it be there are five filters in the package? I was hoping that the comments would be helpful, but no luck.

The current filter we are looking at is Merv 11. For higher Merv value, you probably need to look for Merv and FC100A through search engine. Thanks.

Sorry, but had to laugh, I was just thinking the same thing. Why in the world would you buy more than 1 if the price increases with each add on filter? Duh.. thanks for asking, I'll be waiting for answer, probably won't get one though. LOL!!

I use this system at home, and a larger version (from a chemical supplier) in the laboratory that I manage. We routinely use the industrial version for a couple of years, because the water it is purifying has already been distilled, so the demand is low. There is no reason that the filters should not last for that time, assuming the useage is low enough. KLL

I have had my pitcher for several years. At first I loved it and the filters lasted at least a month. Lately, the filters have only been lasting about a week (I make 1 pitcher a day). I think when my current supply of filters runs out I will stop using the pitcher - it's just gotten too expensive.

To tell you the truth, I returned this filter. There was old model and not supported by manufacture warranty. There was problem after installation and manufacture which is Amway refused to give me technical support as it was discontinued model. Good luck

We find a filter of this size adequate for our three bedroom house. Alas, we do not actually use *this* model. I purchased it, and then found that the threaded fittings I was using bottomed out before forming a tight seal. I ditched this filter and purchased another one locally.

The filter has not worked that well for me... I live in Michigan. I would say no.

They no longer make the rigid framed filters. I have been using the current style filters for several years and I have not had any problems with them.Online purchasing is more reliable than finding them in stores.

Sorry Arthur...I think you're right! I ordered a spare filter back in June and thought nothing of it. Then, I went to change my filter this morning and the one they sent me was wrong. My old filter has an opening on both ends and the new one does not. Plus, the part number is different. Maybe it's a new design but I'm not putting it in until I find out. Thanks for making me aware of this. I wouldn't put your's in either. Please let me know if you find something out from the company.

The 3-pack of filters is from a different seller. It's not uncommon for some sellers to have prices that are higher even if they'd selling a multi-pack. Always check prices carefully. I have been buying single filters. They last a LONG time for me though I am the only person using the pitcher. Hope this helps!

Had no problems with mine. You may not have twisted the filters back into their fully seated positions.
