The WYZE Air Filter Replacement SCANDAL

Has there been ANY updates on when the WYZE Replacement Filter Scandalbe available? I know Amazon has it available, but damn when will Team Wyze get their act together and get these FILTERS in stock? And will they be able to keep them in stock? This is crazy ridiculous that a great company cannot keep filters in stock.

All 3 filter types are currently in stock, but they go fast:

Funny, because right before I posted here I checked and it showed all 3 not in stock. I opened the the Wyze App Store.

Wyze really needs a “notify when back in stock” feature. :pensive:

This is why the last two times I ordered 6 on my filter subscription. Now I have enough to last so I reduced the subscription down to 2 filters. I also found some after market filters on Amazon, that according to the specs, are just as good. But yes, Wyze needs to get their act together because if you are going to sell a product that goes through filters every 3 to 6 months, then you need to always have them in stock. The bean counters can tell you how many you need based on Air Purifier sales, it’s just math.

Mine showed up the other day and I replaced it. Took the old one to work and with air pressure blew most if not all dirt and dust out. Looks good for reuse.

Everyone says to do this and I have done it as well, but only because the AQI in my house has always been very low, below 10. But the issue with blowing/vacuuming out the filters is that you may not get all the micro particles that get trapped in the filter material, so the filter ends up hardly doing a good job. I wouldn’t do this more than once, even in my low AQI house. Sadly, the Air Purifier doesn’t measure filter air flow to know if it’s dirty and needs to be replaced. It seems to just be based on time, which just like with a refrigerator water filter, is not the best way to do it.

When I started in trade school, we were taught not to blow out air filters with compressed air. The high pressure will cause the dirt to poke holes in the filter media, rendering it useless as a filter.
