They do the job, last a long time, don't have to be replaced as often as you'd think.
"%age Meter" doesn't work

These replacement filters effectively revitalize the Bionaire unit, which does a nice job of cleaning dust out of the air. In theory, the unit's Percentage Meter is supposed to tell you how much of the HEPA filter life is used up; however, replacing the filters did not seem to reset the meter to 100%, and even following the "reset" instructions I got from Bionaire did not reset the filter....
Good price - but maybe you can find it cheaper

I don't know if it was a fluke or what, but I found this product (the two-pack) for $9.99 at a Best Buy in Reston, VA in December 2005. I haven't found anything near that price on the internet. Check your local Best Buy before ordering.
And by the way, my husband has severe allergies to just about everything and he's been able to breath much easier since we got this purifier.
Great during the 2 days it worked

I picked this air cleaner after researching and finding that this was rated second best overall, the number one rated filter was way too expensive (over $700). After taking it out of the box and putting in the filters, I closed the cover only to find that the "Door Ajar" indicator would not turn off so the unit couldn't be turned on. I decided to press on the spot where the door sensor was, and this alleviated the problem. Then I turned it on high for the day. It was pretty noisy, but it got the job done. At night I put it in sleep mode, which didn't bother me at all. The next morning I noticed it was unusually quiet and found that it had malfunctioned. The top of the unit, where the infrared receiver was located, was constantly lit up acting as if the remote was sending a signal to the unit. The digital display showed a solitary digit "9" and none of the buttons worked. I could not turn it on. I unplugged it and replugged it and still showed the same malfunction. I am returning this to get another one. Hopefully it works out. I keep everyone posted on how the new one works out.
Very Disappointed

I purchased this unit after comparing several makers and models. It worked wonderfully...for one day. Within twenty-four hours the fan stopped working. The lights lit up and everything appeared to be appropriately configured, but it would not work.
