C&P new Costa COF-21005 COF241

[Adambomb7777]

This is a very well made filter. No date code anywhere. Baseplate was very heavy. Can is very thick. I could not make the media tear or pull out. No extra glue.

Unless the efficiency is trash these are the steal of the century

holes ftw!

Thanks for cutting... Costa?, Never on my radar.

It wasn’t for me either. But the thread here and all the posts on various social media platforms was intriguing. Plus 10 filters shipped to my door for $28.

I had to find out for myself

I'm all for trying something different & seeing for yourself.

I keep seeing them advertise on Facebook and was wondering when one would show up here. If it is a really quality product, I hope they do well.

Do you know where filters are made?

I'm a little confused by Costa advertising these as synthetic media, or maybe blend? Could you do a burn test on the ADBV and see if it really is silicone-because I've seen orange rubber ones before (Bosch Distance Plus ones).

Very nice looking low cost filter.

The media looks like a blend

It’s definitely a silicone adbv. I didn’t take pictures but it was nearly impossible to ignite. It produced a tiny bit of white ash

There is no mention anywhere as to country of origin

It does give strong PGI vibes but I can’t say for sure

Here First brands goes under.. And look the market already responded with new supply to take their place. Interesting how that happens.

Time will tell if this Costa is good quality, but right now, appears to be good.. thanks for the cut and paste!

Their website says China. Unfortunately the Chinese made Purolator TL prefix filters have gone up in price quite a bit-so we might have a new low price leader-sub $3/filter is a great deal!

I just cut one open (4459 variety) in the other thread. Seems identical, including media, to the PG standard filter. With the exception of a silicone ADBV. The ADBV is thinner than the ones off of a PG extended filter ADBV.

They are not connected to PGI ... they only have a "PGI" type of construction. There's a thread about this brand ... supposedly they bought manufacturing equipment from a shut down manufacturer of Castrol SFX filters and started this brand line.

Just curious if someone has tried a Costa filter. Specs seem good:
