 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.

Holmes series HM3500 and HM3600

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.

 Buyer bewareFeb 14, 2011
By Ben D.
Honeywell humidifier is one of very few devices that can pump several gallons of water into the air to humidify the whole house. 9 gallons a day is what Honeywell advertises. It does its job but at a price that Honeywell does not advertise.
What the manufacture does not warn you about is that HC-14 filter lasts 2 months (at least in Northern Virginia) . By the end of the second month one can pump maybe 2 gallons a day. I never had a filter that lasted 3 months (and, yes, I perform the prescribed maintenance).
Thus, if you want to use Honeywell QuietCare humidifier be prepared to shell out around $10-15 per months on replacement filters and ProTech cartridges.
