I have not experienced plastic in contact...the filter is plastic BUT it is removable ... this has been amazing for us I think if you buy it from amazon and find that the plastic is not in a place that you want it they would refund .... IF the price is still in the 70=80's I would get it quick .... in case it increases GREAT price my

Filter is plastic w/ white mesh. 2"deep and 5 1/4 " diameter. It works the same as the gold filter, I am sure

I believe the inner filter is aluminum. The base, so far as I can tell, is completely steel.

It is a plastic and mess type filter that you use over and over again, i.e. permanent filter. It's very easy to clean also. I hoped that helped!

I've used these filters for at least 10 years. Never had a problem from the plastic clamps. I do give them one last squeeze with a pair of pliers when assembling. Don't be Hercules though! LOL

Our filters had a safety seal on the outer box and the filter inside was sealed in plastic. Total confidence.

Yes, it is made of plastic, but seems stong and is holding up well. Hope this helps.

I received mine today, IT IS METAL. Not sure why anyone says it's plastic or nylon, but I can confirm it is not. The black structure is made from plastic, but the filter itself is made from stainless steel.

No it is not, it physically removes particles, protozoa, and bacteria down to 0.3 microns in size, including giardia, salmonella, cryptosporidia and others. I love this filter.

Actually kind of. Its a good filter still but the coating will smudge a bit with cleaning.

Not sure, I think it is. It is very durable and solid so I don't think its plastic.

Plastic. It also has tear off covers so you don't scratch. I have had this for years of service with no problems. just replace the filters and the tear offs when needed

As far as I can tell it is an Aprilaire filter. Frame is hard plastic, fits well. I am on my second one and am very satisfied with it.

Sorry to be so late ... but no the filter is stainless steel so all you need to do is to wash regularly..
