yeah looks good.
those have been cut open here I think.. was yours Korea or Vietnam or other ?
I thought you were not supposed to take the merchandise into the restroom.
Walmart has soap dispensers like these?
I don't know, looks to me like that's a sink in someone elses home /

with the clear wrap and baseplate design i'd say thats an import job. like what i see. how much $$$?
Purchased at Walmart for $11.44.
Definitely gives me Pentius vibes to be honest. Most likely VAFI built(made in Vietnam). Some models are made in South Korea. A little extra glue but otherwise a high quality build. Much better than the previous M+H made M1 filters. Highline Warren is handling the warranty on these.
Tomorrow I’ll cut out the media and get measurements.

The Mobil 1 cartridge filter for my car wasn't all the impressive and I couldn't justify the ridiculous cost.

Might need to merge with that Walmart theft thread - it’s that bad
It looks similar to filters under the PGI umbrella, but the Mobil filters are now under Highline Warren (use to be M+H), and Highline Warren has no affiliation with PGI. Could be made in the same factory as some PGI filters, but not managed by PGI, but instead by Highline Warren (they are shown as the responsible company for Mobil filter warranty not, instead of M+H).

Terrible when we have to take our filter obsession into the bathroom to hide from our wives. Lol
The only other brand I've used that also wraps the business end in plastic is Carquest Premium, my usual go-to filter as it ticks all the boxes that matter to me.
Most of the filters made under PGI have the cellophane over the base end. Same with the new Mobil 1 filter. Seems to be a broad practice for Asian made oil filters.
Should be the same. There still might be some old stock M+H made Mobil 1 filters still on the shelves. If it has holes in the center tube, it's the new version.
