    See i've alway used the smaller 300mm filter and always had a slight smell seeping through. I put it down to my fan being too strong for the filter so around a month ago, i got 2x 150x600 pros. Both have the same issue. I've just been looking at Prima Klima pro, anyone ever used them? £160!

    Will look at Mountain and Phresh too...

    Mountain Air are the top ones, since they remove everything under 20 microns in one single pass, they also last 3+ years,
    definitely the most expensive also,

    the others are all relatively the same, just the lifespan is the only real difference ''depth of the carbon bed differs''

    Oversizing could be option with same fan using reducers. Overcapacity of carbon

    I decided to try Mountain Air next. Rhino will never get another purchase from me.

    If your RH is in check, should be good for up to two years ish

    Nah. The right size filter should do what it’s meant too. Rhino just don’t in my experience with every one I’ve had

    using rhino it's takes more than the one pass threw the filter to scrub the air completely though,
    that's why u get a small whiff of something, then later it's completely gone from the room,

    that small wiff isn't a problem since i vent into the attic now, if it was id definitely go mountain air,

    rhino pro and rhino hobby, the only difference is the lifespan, same as ram and phresh,
