When I first started looking at this product I did a little poking around, looking for more information. I couldn't tell if the Targard Permanent Filter System was all you needed to buy. I saw links to some other products, like replacement O-rings ect. So I was a little hesitant to buy it, but I figured at the price they are asking, plus shipping...you really couldn't go too wrong. Plus the cost of the replacement part was very reasonable.
So, let me start off by saying....this System is complete. You do not need to buy any other item to start using it right out of the package. That said, I believe even though it says "Permanent" filter system you may eventually obviously need to buy more O-rings. Why do I say "obviously"? Well they wouldn't sell replacement O-rings if there wasn't a need to replace them! lol.
What are O-rings? They are the products name for the little rubber circle that goes on the metal part, its very small, barely noticeable but it provides the important seal between the metal and the holder (thats my best guess anyway). This system comes with two holders and 1 metal insert with an o-ring included. The metal insert is what actually does the filtering. It might be nice to have a holder by its self, but why not have the advantages of filtering at the same time? The metal insert grips the cigarette very nicely and I didn't once worry that it would fall out when I went to flick the ashes off.

Now, for its actually usage.... I did two trials. One right out of the box. I took it and inserted my 100 length cigarette in the Targard system. I noticed right away that I needed to pull extra hard to get a inhale from the cigarette. I didn't like it. Who wants to look like they are stuggling to be able to inhale??

Great little item ... it definitely fits its billing. I quit pack-a-day smoking ~10 years ago, but I still buy a pack if I'm on vacation, or occasionally for the golf course, etc. This thing is impressive because, with the clear handle, you can actually see the tar collecting in there. If you're trying to quit smoking or thinking about it, this would be a great motivator because you can see what's actually going into your lungs without one of these filters. Also, whether you're trying to quit or not, you should know that this filter does give you less of a quality "drag" off your cigarette --- you're not going to take as much smoke in with each inhale as you would without it. I think heavy smokers who plan to stay that way probably won't get much use out of this thing because it definitely limits the draw. It's not difficult to clean, but you have to keep it clean because otherwise it starts to get that ashtray factor. A Q-tip or the corner of a paper napkin easily does the trick for cleaning. OK,

This little gadget is an interesting addition to any Smoker's repetoire. While the health effects are questionable, it provides a smoker with several other perks. It somewhat prevents your fingers from smelling like smoke, a condition which few people like. Also, it does in fact collect a certain amount of tar, which would otherwise be in your lungs or on your teeth. I strongly recommend using the clear tip over the black one, as it allows you to see just when you need to clean the device. Speaking of, cleanup is really easy, I just drop it in a little bit of alcohol.

While I only smoke occasionally, I fell in love with the TarGuard filter system from the first time I used it. For one, it looks damn cool, but more importantly, it WORKS! I clean out the filter with some paper towels after every few cigarettes. As I found out the hard way, if you don't clean it out regularly, the tar will build up, and if you're as unfortunate as I am, it'll end up leaking out of the mouthpiece, and that stuff has a very unpleasant taste.

Others have mentioned that you need to drag a bit harder when smoking with this, but I haven't noticed that myself. Maybe it's something that depends on the cigarettes you smoke.

The only fault I can think of is that, since the mouthpiece is plastic, if you have a habit of biting down hard or chewing like I do, you'll probably end up needing to buy a replacement mouthpiece one day. But they're cheap, so I'm not that concerned.

As a side-note, I'm curious to see if there's been any research done to see exactly how many harmful compounds are captured by this system. I know there's no "safe" way to smoke, but I would be interested to see if this makes it any "safer."

when i first cleaned this thing i saw just how much tar really goes into my lungs when i smoke, and i smoke the strongest cigarettes on the market, Camel Menthol crushes ( menthol before you crush it and double menthol after). it dosen't take much off taste with these particular cigarettes but cigarettes like pyramid, and L&M i smoke without the filter cause im used to such a harsh and full menthol taste. Anyway, my lungs are much better after using this targard filter, i used to cough up alot of flem and now it rarely happens. it used to happen every day when i first woke up, hacking and coughing from all the flem in my throat, now i cough up the flem once or twice a week at most and with alot more ease. Now i can exercise more without having to catch my breath anywhere near as much. i recommend the targard filter to anyone who smokes cigarettes, especially if you smoke strong cigarettes like i do. 5/5 STARS!!!
