2 Pack 250/250S Replacement Filters for Coway AIRMEGA Max2 250 250S Smart Air Purifier, Max 2 Green True HEPA and Activated Carbon Filter Set, AP-1720-FP

We have two Coway air purifiers and were buying the replacement filters from them. These are EXACTLY the same and half the price.

Works great! Cheaper to buy a 2 pack from them than anywhere else I could find.

I recently purchased this as it's a bit difficult to tell when the filters need to be replaced on the AIRMEGA MAX250 that I have. I purchased it back in 2022, but I don't typically use the filter constantly.When looking for a replacement for the filters, I stumbled upon these. It's only been about a week, but so far seems to be working exactly as advertised. I will submit a review in a couple months to update if anything has changed.

I was a bit worried about not purchasing the OEM filters (as I have in years before). However, since my purifier is a few years old now, I felt confident with trying something new.I read many reviews and articles, and even watched some tests before ordering these. To my understanding, these are almost identical to the original filters. To my eyes, they are indistinguishable. They fit perfectly in the air purifier, and do not seem to affect air flow any differently than the OEM filters. The purifier does a great job of removing cooking smells, and I have not noticed any change in dust or allergens since switching to this filter.

I just got my filters today and I though there was only 1 set of filters but their were 2 sets of filters. For the price I pay $47 and 2 set filter so each would cost $24. Original OEM Coway 250 air filter $80! and it's just for ONE filter. I can't tell the difference between OEM and the generic ones. The Carbon filters on the front are FULLY FILLED! so that is good like the OEM filter. The back green side is the same as OEM filter. Save money and purchase the generic filter. It's more then half the price if they give you 2 filters in 1 package.

The only thing I can say about these in review is that they appear nearly identical to the original filter still present in my recently purchased air cleaner unit. If they fail to perform in some way once I have used them in the future, I'll add further information in the form of an addendum.

TLDR: I own two cats that shed a lot and after using these for 3-4 weeks, my air filter was throwing particles back into the air and causing my allergies to flare up. It served more like a fan than a filter.After reading a lot of the reviews, it seems that most people don't have an issue with a lower quality product, and I usually wouldn't have a problem either. However having two cats that shed a lot and an apartment that fills with dust very quickly made it very easy to notice how low the quality of these filters was. I own two Coway air purifiers and before I bought these off brand filters I had the Coway brand filters which lasted about a year. The air quality in my apartment was the best it ever was during the period I used the Coway brand filters. After that, I didn't want to spend another $200 for replacement filters so I instead chose these. After 3 weeks of using them the replace filter light went on for both air purifiers, and I thought it must've been some mistake, it's only been 3 weeks. Maybe the Coway purifier knew these are off brand and wanted to convince me that these filters are no good. That's what I thought, so I manually reset the lights on both. They came back shortly after but I didn't pay them any mind. For almost 2 weeks after that I noticed that my throat was getting very dry and inflamed, almost to the point that I couldn't breathe. It took me almost 2 weeks to realize that when I lay down to go to bed, even after cleaning the sheets and vacuuming the bedroom, it felt like there were a lot of particles in the air that I was breathing in which irritated my throat. Turning off the purifiers surprisingly decrease the irritation at night. That's when I realized it must've been these air filters. As soon as I bought the Coway brand filters and installed them, the apartment air felt way cleaner and my allergies stopped.Maybe people who don't have pets that that shed, adding to the common irritants in their home, may not notice a drastic difference in the filter quality. But for those that have pets I would advise getting the Coway brand filters.

I needed replacement filters for our air purifier and the prices were all over. I chose these because of the reviews and price point. They fit perfectly and seem to work as expected.
