Review on 🌬️ Extolife 6 Pack Replacement Humidifier Filters for Kaz for Vicks WF2 - Compatible with Various Vicks and Kaz Models by Delos Montano

I bought these filters because of course they were cheaper than the brand that came with my Vicks humidifier. However, the fibers appear to be stiffer and more difficult to fit into the shell than branded fibers. Also, the filter dried out the first time it was used and didn't absorb properly. However, in the last 2 days I haven't had this problem. There is also a silvery fiber (looks like a thin strip of foil) running through that is not present in the original filter. I'm not sure what the purpose of this is and if that makes it stiffer and more difficult to install.
