This product is not the genuine Whirlpool 8171434K Large Filters. They arrive in an unlabeled plastic bag not the Whirlpool box. Therefore, content and quality and manufacturer are unknown. They may function fine but I specifically purchased them because they advertised them as a known quantity the original Whirlpool filters which come in a Whirlpool branded box with a specific product number.

This filter is the exact same filter sold by Sears under the Kenmore brand. The equivalent Kenmore part number is 32-83378. Whirlpool pre-filter # 8171434K will fit Kenmore Progressive air purifiers for models 83200 and 83202. I bought this for my Kenmore Progressive air purifier and compared it to the Kenmore replacement pre-filters that I had previously bought from Sears. The filters are an exact match; even the box is the same except for what is printed on it. At the time of this writing Sears charges $10 more for the Kenmore part number than Whirlpool. If you own a Kenmore Progressive air purifier that takes Kenmore pre-filter 32-83378, I highly recommend purchasing this one to save yourself $10 and to discourage Sears from marking up there filters such a ridiculously high amount.

Got these for our Whispure.... the original that came with it removed odors really well, but eventually got too smelly and clogged.

These came in a box,...but not in a plastic bag,....no seal.... just stuffed in a box. Now, the box looks like it might be an original but I have a hard time believing the people at Whirlpool are not smart enough to protect these from humidity/odors/etc during transport and storage! As it turns out, ours smell disgusting, and once put in the Whispure emit a very strong insecticide smell probably from having been stored without protection! The job of active carbon is TO ABSORB ODORS....how can they not come sealed and protected?!?

Again,... horrible smell...can''t use them. Won''t return, as I don''t have the time.... but I wish I had listened to other reviewers about these not being the real thing! (or maybe even Whirlpool isn''t selling the real thing! maybe in this day and age we can''t even hope for the "real thing"!)

1 star because they made our home smell disgusting

Want Whirlpool 8171434K Large Air Purifier Carbon Pre-Filters Discount?

I purchased the Whirlpool 8171434K Large Air Purifier Carbon Pre-Filters to replace those in two Whispure AP51030K units that I am running. I only purchase items directly from Amazon, so I can''t speak to the other reviews complaining about 3rd party replacement filters being shipped instead of the OEM filters--the filters Amazon shipped to me are genuine Whirlpool filters.

The pre-filters have small slits pre-cut towards the top of the filter, which makes it very easy to position the new filter exactly where it needs to be on the grill. Once placed onto the front grill''s guide tabs, all that''s required is gently pushing the filter material into place and reattaching the grill to the air purifier.

I have been very impressed by the amount of dust and pet hair that these pre-filters are able to capture within their 3 month lifespan. The primary purpose of these filters is to capture the larger dust particles, thereby extending the life of the more expensive HEPA filter (which gets changed once per year). Despite the relatively small amount of activated carbon in these pre-filters, I have been impressed by their ability to quickly neutralize light cooking and catbox odors.

In my opinion, these filters are a great value and perform as expected.
