Product review (1 stars): graco has ruined a great product
as others have pointed out, this filter is absolutely horrible.  the hamilton beach (blue) filter lasted easily 4 months with proper care (i have been using this humidifier model for 10 years), and its structural integrity was not the reason i finally had to replace.  the "new" graco filter starts falling apart big-time as soon as it first gets wet.  do not buy.  i notice that hamilton beach still sells the filter this "replaces," and am going to see if it is the original design.  shame shame graco.
