Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 63 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the helpfulness and professionalism of the staff, noting that representatives are patient and effective in guiding them to the correct products. Reviewers frequently highlight instances where customer service went above and beyond, resolving issues like incorrect orders, address mistakes, or even sending replacements for free. The speed of shipping is also a positive point for many, with some receiving their orders very quickly and finding the filters in perfect condition. However, a significant number of people were dissatisfied with the product quality, particularly regarding filter sizing, as many received filters that were smaller than advertised or did not fit their systems. There are also frequent complaints about damaged products upon arrival, often attributed to poor packaging, and a perception that the company does not stand behind its products. Some reviewers also reported negative experiences with customer service, citing inflexibility, unhelpfulness, or a demand for photographic proof for issues.

Product is satisfactory. Prices have risen 23.6% in exactly one years time. Paid $98.64 for an order of (4) 24x25x4 MERV 11 filters in April of 2025. The Rebuy price on April 8, 2026 was $121.96.

I ordered a Honeywell filter and they sent a generic. It was the wrong size as well. They claim that the filter was called Honeywell-compatible but it was not written. I have the confirmation as proof. Wish I checked trustpilot first. I learned a lesson

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

Had issues with poorly constructed…

Had issues with poorly constructed filters and contacted filter buy on the 91st day after ordering. They said they couldn't do anything g since it was after their strict 90 day rule. I may have ordered them 91 days ago but I received them 85 days ago. Trying to get ahead of any price increases...when I put the first one in it made my AC sound like a jet engine taking off. I looked a little closer and noticed they were coming apart at the edges and the the pleats were damaged. I've purchased from this company since 2018. They told me they switched manufacturers on the 20x20x1. They do t tta.d behind their product so I won't be ordering from them any longer

Very poor quality filters

Very poor quality filters, company refuses to acknowledge issues.

Bought a years worth of the several sizes of filters used in my home. When I received them, found they were very poorly made, pleats squished together or flattened, even several that were so sloppily made the filter material didn’t even cover the filter face, leaving gaps that unfiltered air can pass through.

Contacted the company, let them know of issues, and send numerous photos of the problems, asking to return all the filters due to the poor manufacturing. The company asked for more photos,which I sent. They then asked for even more photos, indicating they would only replace the ones that they determined were not satisfactory.

As I have no intention of using any of the filters, disputed the purchase with my credit card company. Described the issue and what I had done to try to resolve it, and included the photos. Within a few days, the credit card company quickly found the issue in my favor and fully refunded my purchase.

I received junk filters from this company. Do not recommend buying from them.

Great customer service!

We've been doing business with Filterbuy for a few years now and are very pleased with them as a vendor. The rare time the trucking company delivered damaged filters, Filterbuy made good on all damaged filters very quickly and sent replacements. They listened to any suggestions we had regarding packing filters more secure, and the last delivery was perfect! Tonya is amazing and always responds to each and every request we have on a timely basis. Would definitely recommend Filterbuy!

Wonderful and helpful customer service

I ordered the wrong size filters due to size printed on old filters. I contacted the company and was helped by a lady named Stephanie who walked me through the steps needed to send filters back,and also order the right ones. She was so patient and helpful,a true GREAT representative for your company ... If I had a company,I would want 10 Stephanie's in customer service,she is top of the line. Please share this with her

BEWARE

I ordered 16x25x4 filters. Mind you every other brand of filters (3M, BestAir, Filtrete, Honeywell, even generics) of the same advertised dimensions fits perfectly. I bought a six pack when I installed my last other brand filter so I would have them ready when needed. They did arrive promptly. At the next change, I discovered that they were way too small. I emailed customer service and got a snotty, condescending email about how I should have checked the nominal size. A standard is a standard for a reason. This is a scam and I would warn buyers to BEWARE.

I ordered the wrong size and the…

I ordered the wrong size and the Customer Service Agent listed 4 reasons why I should NOT return the items I purchased. The agent made it seem very difficult to even return and said I would have to pay for shipping back, which is fine. Then, she said there is no guarantee they will even take it back, which is a weird thing to say. Her reply to me was "we offered you an exchange, but you declined, so it's on you." Wow, don't shop here.

SIZE DOES MATTER!!

SIZE DOES MATTER!!!
Purchased 4 filters (16x25x4 MERV 8 Pleated Air Filter) The actual size was smaller than the size listed on the filter. They were much to loose for a good fit. I call to get a refund and they were willing to refund If I paid the shipping of over $15. Since they are not making filters to the correct Size I think they should pay for a full refund plus shipping. Do not deal with this company. Not very good customer service. SIZE DOES MATTER!!!!!
