Great experience with this company
Great experience with this company. Ordered online AC filters I couldn’t find anywhere. Received within 3 business days. Perfect fit!

DO NOT EVEN GO TO THEIR WEB PAGE
DO NOT EVEN GO TO THEIR WEB PAGE. IF YOU DO EXPECT TO RECEIVE EMAILS EVERY DAY AND IF YOU DELETE ONE ANOTHER IMMEDIATELY POPS UP. I HAVE REQUESTED SEVERAL TIMES THAT THEY STOP SENDING ME THESE EMAILS AND THEY STILL KEEP COMING. UNLESS YOU LIKE NUMEROUS EMAILS FROM THE SAME COMPANY, STAY AWAY FROM THIS OUTFIT.
Ordered my filters on May 27, 2021. On May 28, 2021 they charged my credit card $98.49, but i have never received an email regarding the order, when it would ship, or anything at all. The chat on the website is disabled, that's handy.

Ordered my filters two weeks ago still waiting was charged two weeks ago this company is very irresponsible and doesn’t know what the words Customer Service mean. They suck my mistake.
Miranda G helped me tremendously
I needed a replacement filter for my rheem classic 90plus and could not get any answers from rheem or any one else
I went on the factory direct website and had the good fortune of mssg with Miranda G. She knew exactly what I needed and even gave me the product I'd and told me the amt of protection the filter in ? Will give me in comparison to the one I'm currently using. They are lucky to have her there in the chat helping customers and potential customers like me.

Ordered three sets of custom sized filters. Items arrived 4 days after date promised. One of the 3 orders was the wrong size. Attempted to contact the company. However, they do not answer phones on Friday or the weekend. Their chat is also disabled. Emailed them 4 times with no response. Will now dispute the charges for the defective \ useless item.

Extremely Cheap & Flimsy Filters
Please be sure to read my two updates below my original post. I originally gave this company a one star rating and have now raised it to two stars. I have documented my entire experience with this company.
I wish I had looked here before I bought these filters. Factory Direct filters are very cheaply made; the filters I received are not worth even $5 a piece and I paid $20 per filter. Like many others here, my filters arrived damaged, primarily due to how flimsy they are made. BUYER BEWARE! This company is selling substandard filters at outrageously inflated prices and certainly taking advantage of people during the Covid-19 outbreak.
Update: I posted the above review 10/6/2020 and at the same time opened a case with Factory Direct. True to form it is now 10/18/2020, twelve days later, and I have not heard word one from Factory Direct except for the automated reply when I opened the case. This company is by far the worst company I have ever dealt with in terms of product quality and total lack of customer service. If I could give them a zero rating, I would.
Well low and behold. I finally heard back from the support group at Factory Direct filters. On 10/30/2020 I got an email from the support group at Factory Direct Filters asking me to "accept their apologies for the delay in responding and ... for the condition of the filters." They went on to say that they would be issuing a credit on my card and that they did not expect me to return the damaged filters. I must say, I never expected to hear from them so I have raised the rating to two stars. I still feel that these filters and way over-priced and their support group is ridiculously slow in responding, but now that they have satisfied my request for a refund, I could not leave them at one star or at my wish to give them zero stars. I was torn about raising their rating to three stars but I still feel that the quality of the product does not deserve what would be an "average" rating.

Ordered 6 MERV-13 filters....got the box from FedEx and noticed that one corner of the box was pretty "pushed in"/damaged... opened it up and the damage made it's way inside the box to every darn filter....they were ALL sufficiently damaged on one complete side...using these filters will NOT provide the air filter needed as they now do not expand to the edge of the filter holder...they are damaged...I have waited, as you requested, SIX days no and still no reply to my two previous emails. I am looking for a refund for the six damaged filters or a shipment that is prepared CORRECTLY so that any shipping abuse will not abuse the product.

NO SHIPMENT, POOR SERVICE
Ordered filters July 21, 2020. It is now August 19 and no filters yet. Money cleared the bank July 22. Only receiving canned responses asking for five days to respond each time. This was not apparent the first time I ordered. Blaming shipping time on Covid-19????
THIS IS RIDICULOUS
Cancel the payment for quick response...
Ordered 6/25. Crickets after weeks of phone calls (had to leave voicemails) and emails (never responded).
Initiated payment cancel after five weeks.
Amazing response! Received the correct order within a week.
Update 7 Sep, 20. The response from the company still doesn't address how my voicemails and website forms were ignored for 6 weeks before canceling the payment. And I didn't follow through with payment cancellation because the order was finally fulfilled. The point was that I was ignored until starting the payment cancellation process.
Caveat Emptor.
