Un-informed = lose money
With in a week the filter was moldy and had to replace. I hate that I bought one that requires a filter it’s a waste of money if I had known how often the filter wears off I would not bought one with a filter

Cheap brand replacement
Why would they stop carrying multipacks of this filter and other brands? This one turns black and falls apart and is going to break the humidifier. Really annoying change to cheap inventory target.

ONE Filter deceptive photo of Protec box
Careful - this item is one filter. By showcasing the 2 in the upper right corner of box/see photo it appears to include two filters. Several other sellers/items are cheaper.

This filter is too big for the Vicks VEV400 and has a sharp wire running through out. Very frustrating that the manufacturer insists it is the correct one.
There's no way this is the right filter

Says 2 on Picture of Box but Only 1 Filter
The picture of the box has a “2” on it as if there are 2 filters in the box but there is only one filter. The filter fits and works well in my Honeywell humidifier.

Not the right fit
I have a humidifier that I purchased within the last year. It hadn't been used as much which is why it took me a while to look into buying a new filter. This filter does not fit the humidifier I have even though a lot of the questions asked and answered stated that this was the one I needed. Nope...they're wrong.

Works, barely for VE400
I saw shirl19's review and wanted to review too, because I had almost the same experience. The Vicks VE400 I bought last year came with a PWF2 filter. It came time to replace and I have not been able to find the PWF2 ANYWHERE. Some filters online are listed as being "PWF2/WF2" but the WF2 is NOT the same size. With some shimmying and wedging, the WF2 will go into the tank and the humidifier can technically function. But I don't think it runs as well and the filter has worn out fast because it is too big. The PWF2 is smaller and more flexible.

This doesn't sound right. We'd like to look further into this. Please note, we do recommend to wet the filter in cool water prior to operating the humidifier. For additional assistance, please email us at SocialSupport@helenoftroy.com.

Tight fit for the VEV400 humidifier
Tight fit for the VEV400 humidifier. It says to use PWF2 filters, but I couldn’t find them anywhere. I contacted Vicks and they said to use these filters. To make them fit, you have to soak them in water first. Even then, you can tell they’re a bit too big. I’m still annoyed I bought a humidifier and they don’t even make the correct size filters.

Does a great job
The last 2 years I forgot to order these so I had to go with other brands. Neither did the job that ProTech does. ProTech does a great job of bringing water to the top of the filter. It is long lasting compaired to other filters that I have used.
