Don't buy the generics
There seems to be a lot of confusion with Activated carbon filters. I'll give the pro's and con's to both. DON'T buy the cheaper generics, you'll be sorry. There's two types, depending on your main concern. Smokers will definitely want the SECOND style, HRF-AP1 (A-Filter), NOT this, the HRF-APP1 (A-Plus Filter)

These are made with Activated Carbon made with Zeolite/Volcanic Rock....HRF-APP1 (A-Plus Filter)

Pro's
1 - Excellent for chemical fumes and odors (VOCs)

2 - Good for kitchen odors

3 - Good for pet odors

4 - Good for new car smells

5 - Can be re-activated and then re-used. Just Vacuum and then place in the sun for a day

Con's

1 - Hard to find in it's pure form

2 - Not available for most air purifiers

====================================================================

These are made with Activated Coal Carbon. Carbon made from COAL is the air purifier...

Do not buy Honeywell brand HRF-AP1, HRF-APP1 or 38002, buy the thicker and better generic prefilters.
I do not recommend Honeywell brand HRF-AP1, HRF-APP1 or 38002 because :

(1) Prefilters HRF-AP1, HRF-APP1 or 38002 (all made in Mexico) are thinner and much lower quality than the original prefilter that comes with the air purifier or the generic ones made in US, Korea or China that I bought before. 38002 is basically the same quality, thickness and porosity as HRF-AP1 except for the higher price. I suspect HRF-AP1 and 38002 are the same exact items with a different box and price.

(2) The pores or holes are bigger, many 3 mm or bigger. They allow many air particles to bypass the prefilter and clog up the more expensive HEPA filter faster. The 50250 air purifier needs 3 HRF-F1 HEPA filters at $29 each, for a total of $87.

You can clearly see many big holes by holding the prefilter against the light. Fine black carbon dusts from the prefilter cover my hands and table.

(3) Prefilter HRF-APP1 ( suggested retail $ 17.99) has zeolite added...
Goodbye cat odor
I keep a Honeywell filter in my bedroom to help control allergens. I normally use HRF-AP1 pre-filters, which work fairly well. I tried these HRF-APP1 for cooking odors (which they eliminate fairly well over a bit of time), but was especially pleased that I don't wake up smelling the cat box in the master bath if I forget to clean it the night before.
