Fram Fresh Breeze CF

[Zee09]

Got it about 7 months ago on amazon for $8
Now its over $16
I put it in Saturday and the fit was perfection and it really works great.
Cruising through rural farming communities- it worked great- really great
I'd buy it again at even $16

Great price. The one for my wife's car is $29.99 and they rarely go on sale.

Idk... 3+ times the price of a standard carbon filter? I'll pass. The Arm & Hammer might help with cabin smells (a la a smoker like me) when on recirc, but I think the carbon does most of the work of filtering outside air. I really doubt there's $12 worth of baking soda in that filter. But that's just me.

Looks like it is a great deal. Thanks

Update
I'd buy it again. It really works better than expected.
The fit was better than OEM

A great product.

hey zee09! Wanted to thank you for reviewing this! I had installed a fresh breeze CF for a friend in his accord and it filtered all sorts of perfume that was lingering in the car. Guess the guy had a date with a woman that over-did the perfume. Within maybe half a day it removed all those smells! Left it with a neutral car smell.

so just wanted to thank you for posting this.. was debating about trying one for my own car, scion tc. Looks like I'll be getting one!

You are welcome Sir!
Thrilled with mine. I'm one of those sensitive nose dudes- lol

Just got two for a for a Ford Taurus from Rock Auto on clearance for $7.00 US each, delivered. Regular price at CT was $27.50 CAD ($19.25 US).

Not sure how other vehicles are configured, but on mine the air does not go back through the filter when it's on re-circulation. It's just a one time pass when set on "vent".

I just installed one today on a 2011 Toyota Prius. I ordered it 2 days ago from Amazon. It was $12.05 total. I hope it works as well for me as it did for you.

It's not about having $12 worth of baking soda.... it's about spreading some baking soda over the filter media effectively and having it be useful for odors.

The filter itself, the technique and the process are about $11.95 of what your paying for, the rest is actually baking soda.
