3.0 out of 5 stars Just the thing - How about an affordable multipack?, July 2, 2007

This filter is just thing when your old one gets dirty!

OK - but perhaps they could sell just the filter (the part that gets dirty) without making us buy the plastic cover too. The plastic cover can easily be rinsed with water and does not need to be replaced with the filter.

Changing dustbuster filters should be cheap and easy. So, please, a multipack of just the filters and no plastic covers would be awesome.

I couldn't help notice a wide price disparity on this item. Amazon wanted $8 whereas other sellers were <$2! Since this is a consume-and-dispose type item, I decided to pay Buy-It-Now's exorbitant $6.95 shipping fee and buy 3 at $1.25 each - netting me 3 for $10.70 instead of $24 at the Amazon price.

Here's what happened: I received the filters promptly but with NO packaging and NO plastic cover, JUST THE FILTERS. That's fine with me since as another review pointed out, the plastic cover is quite reusable with a quick rinse and it seems pointless to replace it every time ... and the packaging just goes to the landfill after all.

BOTTOM LINE is I'm happy with my purchase but this should be cataloged as two different items - the "Filter Set" at a higher price for those who want the whole package, and the Filter ONLY for people who just want the filter a-la-carte. (I'll rate it 5 stars if they fix this... the filters are just fine.)

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't live without my Dustbuster!!, April 26, 2008

I've had Dustbusters in my life for 15 years - but have only had to buy two of them. Like a car, so long as you take care of it (keep it charged, use periodicially, change the filter) this handy little device will last a long, long time. Obviously it's perfect for quick touch-ups when you don't want to break out the vacuum. But this review isn't merely for the B&D Dustbuster - this filter deal (4 for 3) is SUPER because they're hard to find in stores, and with Amazon, you just can't beat Super-Saver shipping!! TIP: Make your filters last. You don't have to change them out everytime. In between changes I place my filter in a plastic shopping bag and clean out the ridges with a cotton swab.
