It's been a few years since I last read it closely and it has moved a few times and changed a few times... But I think it is a pretty fair comparison of filter features and things to watch for... Sidebar.... many years ago, we compared two couches... (here in canada we call them chesterfields). One was on sale at the Brick Warehouse for about $299. It featured a frame made of softwood, cheap springs and padding and inferior covering material. We looked at a similar sofa at a privately owned furniture store. This one was nearly $1200. Top quality coverings, top quality springs and padding and a frame made of hardwood. My last Brick warehouse cocuh had lasted less than two years... My $1200 couch was, after
20 years of faithful service given to friends of the family.... Approaching
30 years of age, it still looks pretty much like the day we bought it.
Now.... somebody reading this might assume that I am suggesting the expensive couch is going to be the best choice. NO!!!!! I am suggesting that if you are going to buy something - cost is only one of many considerations.... ergo... we do our best to perform a cost/benefit analysis and pray like hell we made the right choice.
High price is no assurance that we WILL get top quality... but low price is usually a good indicator that we WONT get top quality.
