These filters are a MUST have, but not at $26, but here is a way to saveNov 27, 2010
By ShopTilYouDrop
Having 2 of the HCM-6009 humidifiers, I use alot of these filters each season. Lesson learned, stock up on them BEFORE Fall with they are about $8 each as they are now charging a ridiculous price of $26. Up until a week ago, Home Depot had them online for $7.98, they have since doubled to $14.
SOLUTION: Just got home from Walmart and while I was there I was looking for the HC14 filter. Only kind they carried were Sunbeam filters, but I started looking at a particular one that looked identical to the HC14 in size and design; Sunbeam SF221PDQ-UM Humidifier Filter. Picked one up and just got home to try it and it works. Exact same size for only $10.
Sunbeam SF221PDQ-UM Humidifier Filter:
* Contains antimicrobial product additive for built-in protection
* Inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew
* Features Arm & Hammer Baking Soda to naturally deodorize the air
While you are there, pick up a bottle of Sunbeam Bacteriostat Solution for $2.
Sunbeam Bacteriostat Solution:
* Designed for Cool Mist Humidifiers
* Controls the growth of bacteria and algae in humidifier tanks
* Simplifies the cleaning process
* Prolongs the life of the wick filter

 Tip for a longer lasting HC-14 filterFeb 07, 2008
By Karl W. Weaver
This Replacement filter works perfectly on my Honeywell HCM-6000. I found that the filter will last longer if you flip it every other water fill up. This will not allow any one side to stay in the water too long and turn sour.

It is what it is...Mar 03, 2006
By E. Given
Replacement filter works well. Tends to form a bit of mold and musty smell if left sitting in water while humidifier is not running. I suggest always running your humidifier completely out of water before shutting it off.

 NOT a genuine Honeywell FilterNov 20, 2008
By P. Inhofer
For now, I'm giving this 2 stars because it is not a Honeywell filter. According to the box this is a "BestAir Extended Life Humidi*Wick Filter" that is compatible as a generic replacement for the HC-14.
I felt a little "bait and switched" because the title of this product implies this is a Honeywell product. It's not.
I've got 3 of these so I'll run through these and then update my rating.
UPDATE: Feb. 2009
I've now run through 3 of these filters. Don't let the earlier (2006, 2007) positive reviews of this filter fool you. It's far inferior to the genuine HC-14 filter with the blue outer covering. My humidifier was constantly running the entire 3 months I was using these filters. The humidifier could never reach or maintain my desired humidity level. Last week when I switched to the genuine filter not only did it reach my desired humidity level (40-45%) - it only needs to switch on half the time to maintain that level.
The difference in efficiency is astonishing.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a vendor on Amazon selling the genuine filter. I needed to do a web search to find the product.
