Yeah Mann filters are really good build quality, and of course there are going to be competitors in the high end market, but they are less prevalent. I mean that in a sense that there are about 20 "value" brands for every 1 or 2 high quality brand.
I suppose what I was relating mostly to, is someone who tries to compare the build quality and performance of a $8.99 China filter, compared to a $24.99 Mann/BMW/Bosch filter.
