What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Permatron DE1420-2 for its sustainability and long-term value, effectively eliminating disposable filter waste and recurring costs. The initial investment is seen as worthwhile due to its durable aluminum construction and superior dust capture, which benefits allergy sufferers. Users report excellent air quality and sustained performance when maintenance is followed. The main point of friction involves the cleaning routine; washing and drying the filter is described by some as messy and time consuming compared to simple replacements.
