Is the filter easily reachable and washable ? Does it have a problem with overheating ?

Easy to reach and clean. It puts out a lot of heat so not good in a small space. Ours is in a utility room and it was OK all summer.

Yes, 1st remove water tank. The air filter can now be removed by sliding it down from the top front of the dehumidifier where the tank was removed. I have not had any over heat problems. Though, the air coming out of the device is quite warm and should not be placed near furniture.

The filter is washable and getting it out is not a big deal. We've run this for weeks at a time and I've never had a problem with it to date.

So far I have not had to buy a filter for it. The filter is very easy to clean. When the filter/vacuum is too full of dust it won't suck up very much. SO make sure to wash it out regularly

I don't believe that the large pre-filter you are referring to is replaceable. It is washable, however. The unit has 1 pre-filter (washable), 3 carbon filters, and 3 HEPA filters.

Yes, it is easy to clean. I've had it in daily use for about two months and have had no problems at all.

It's a pretty good sized filter- basically the whole handle- and very fine. I don't think it will let any particulates through. I've had to pop it out and rinse it a couple of times when I noticed flow decreasing. It's very easy to do.

So far our filter has been holding up pretty good. I haven't had the chance to change it yet. Sorry.

Yeah I have washed it. the filter just fits across the opening so you could probably use any filter that isn't too long in it.

YES FOLKS.... IT IS absolutely WASHABLE. It states so on the description page. Also states it on the filter page.Just because it is paper, does noty mean you can't wash it. I have a corded mini (floor) vac that has this kind of filter, it is washable.

I's cloth. This item is identical to the filter that came with the unit. It's washable and will perform as well as the original. You make the call. I keep mine in a utility drawer and purchased the spare filter for the same reason most customers bought it for. A replacement when the other filter is drying after washing it. I wash it often because I use it often. Thank God. No more ants taking home little food crumbs that fall on your kitchen floor. This should answer all the questions regarding this filter. PS A good buy.

Hey Jerry, to answer your question. For the most part i like this filter because it does do it job but cleaning it another story. The only part that is hard to clean is the pipe because you can't really get all the way in the pipe to get to the build up. I had the filter for 6 month now and i just broke last week cleaning the pipe.

The filter is nice, so I just wash it periodically with soap and hot water, then let air dry. Especially after frying shrimp!

I'm in south Texas it last a month in the heat of summer but I can get several filter cuts from this box. It's not washable. Irk on filter rating but I can tell you it's amazing what it picks up next to this, the factory filter isn't even a filter more like a joke.

In my opinion the filter does get dirty fairly quickly...I try to use a brush and get most of the stuff off of it myself rather than replacing every couple months.

no, it's not washable. it clogs with dust eventually if used in a very dusty enviroment, once washed it is useless and not breathable.

easy enough to clean filter, however if you forget it could mess up the unit..it is really not meant for a dusty area...I used it while I was finishing the apartment I was building and the dust build up was considerable..i did clean it every day ...took out filter and vaccumed it..

I concur with Julio. The outer shell filter is washable. The bag and the exhaust filter are disposable.

I believe it is. I bought mine some time ago and put it away. I am moving soon I wanted to save it for my new place. I went on line to Amazon and checked the page and they show a replacement filter for it, so it looks like it is replaceable. I never checked it out before for myself, glad I did. Good question...
