PUREBURG Carbon Filter,Cut-to-Fit Carbon Pad 16 x 48 inches for Air Filter Charcoal Sheet fits Range Hoods Furnace Filters removes Odor VOC Parts Accessories Replacement,1-Pack

I have been using this item for 6 years and found that it is the best replacement for the original. By buying the large piece of material it allows for the cutting to match both of my air cleaners. Easy yo cut and it fits just like the pre made versions.

Nice and well made simply cut to fit very pleased

I got this to replace the carbon filter above my stovetop - the fan is not vented to the outside.Disassembling the previous filter was easy enough, and I ran it through the dishwasher, along with the grease catching filter, to get is completely degreased. This material fit in place quite easily.Overall, it is not nearly as carbon-coated as the original but is better than inexpensive replacement filters that cost (for a pair) about the same as this whole sheet. So to me, this comes out somewhere in the middle.I tested this 4 ways:1) inexpensive replacement from another manufacturer (thin coating). It was noted that the smell of the cooking was as if I didn't filter,2) this padding, single layer. It was noted that the odor was reduced a bit, not a huge difference - just noticeable,3) this padding, double layer. It was noted that the odor was reduced even more and made a difference,4) this padding, double layer, aquarium activated charcoal added between. It was noted that the odor was as strong as if I cooked about an hour or so ago instead of right then.Regardless of the filter method, grease is always an issue. It's impossible to fry/high-temp-cook foods indoors and not have grease smoke when the hood is unvented! So the goal was just odor reduction.I'm willing to pay about $10 for this padding and add some additional activated charcoal (beats baking soda in the fridge any day, too) - this sheet should supply me for about 2 years (keeping it vacuum-sealed) and I get decent results.I'm not willing to pay $40 for OEM replacement filters every six months ($160 for 2 years!) to get decent results.Non-vented hoods are notoriously not-so-great. This is an inexpensive way to at least keep it working as expected, rather than worse.

Very good as a replacement

I bought this stuff to re-pack my GE rangehood carbon filter. The filter is over $200 and times are a little tough so I drilled out a few of the rivets using a 1/8 drillbit, not all of the rivets, just enough to be able to pry open the metal filter housing a bit and pull out the old carbon filter. Once I did that I measured it and cut new filters from this sheet. This sheet was a little thinner than the GE filter so I double layered, shoved it back in the cage and used a zip tie to keep the metal filter housing closed from where I drilled out the rivets. Easy peasy!

I stuck this behind all of the openings on my Qidi Q1 Pro 3D printer to keep all of the fumes at bay. Worked like a charm!

Great price.

Gift was funny and appreciated
