Earlier this evening, Bro Edmund came back to us for our Hengst Cabin filter replacement.
He had installed it earlier with us in Jan 2017 and it would lasted a year or more if his workshop had not taken the "initiative" to replace it without asking him. So within a week of installing his new cabin filter, Bro Edmund found the air to be very stale.
So when we took it out, guess what we found?
Some funny brand (most likely prc) cabin filter, with no direction indication (there is a direction where the filter should be facing so that the airflow go through the proper sequence for filter media), plus the filter media was thick like a coat looking the same on both sides. Technically, the filter media materials are layered so it should look differently on both sides. In short, the material was effectively useless, blocking the airflow and without much filtering capability.
Like we always practice here at Bimshop, quality is of utmost importance. Our products may be slighty pricier but you are getting what you paid for. As for the case of Bro Edmund, he paid $70 for a useless China one and had to come to us for our German made Hengst ones which would have cost another $20 more and with the end year promo now, its only $10 more at $80.
