Bought this (from HD) to use in my fathers Stihl chain saw, I also bought the 2 cycle oil. The saw works great, I don't know if it works better but it's certainly not worse than before. Nice to know the oils are environmentally friendly. Love GET products, keep up the good work!!

P.S. try the 5W30 motor oil too

I'm not a logger, just a homeowner with an electric chain saw and 15 trees now under my belt. The oil and saw were quite compatible and the best thing is knowing I'm using a domestic, sustainable oil source. I would definitely order this again.

It must be okay, because I haven't heard my husband complaining about it. He used this on the chainsaw we bought from amazon also. The chainsaw is still working!

Honest reviews on Green Earth Technologies 1121 Bar and Chain Green Oil - 32 oz.

Not too long ago, I bought an inexpensive (cheap) 16" chain saw (made in China) at a big hardware store to remove some large bushes with good-sized trunks on my property. The clerk said I would need some chain and sprocket oil in order to operate and he brought out this 32-ounce container of Green Earth Bar and Chain Oil. it looked to me like a lifetime supply and it was expensive for a quart of oil, but he said it was the kind I would need. Well, I managed to cut out the three bushes, and that seemed to be about the life expectancy of the cheap chain saw. In the process, I used about 2 ounces of the bar, chain and sprocket lubricant. I'm happy to say that it worked fine throughout the life of the chainsaw, but I don't think that's a very fair test. I'm certain some of my 2-cycle motorcycle oil would have worked just as well. In any case, I've now got 30 ounces of oil left over and I'm not sure how to use it up. Any suggestions?

To make a scientific comparison between the performance of this filter and other brands needs a laboratory and other measuring devices which most of us (Do It yourself)ers don't have access to. So, I'll just tell you my personal experience:

I Use this filter (Bosch 3323) with my 2006 Honda accord VP (4 cylinders).

I drive 10'000 miles a month ( yes ten thousands miles a month) and I change my oil and filter once a month.

I use this filter with Mobile 1 Gold container (Extended Performance) Marked up to 15000 miles.

my car does not need to be lifted off the ground for oil change, all I need is to turn the wheels all the way to the right.

Now, the filter :

Easy to screw in and hand tightened.

despite the larger size comparing to Honda OEM filter I still have enough room for both my hand and the filter to fit.(applies to the car I mentioned).

Never leaked

Never triggered oil light on dash.

Easy to screw off.

Other brands need a tight grip tool to unscrew even when I'm using the right method of hand-only to tighten the filter.

When I use FRAM TG I need a special grip pliers to unscrew and I have to squeeze hard to a limit the filter shell is bent.

The filter is sold and shipped by Amazon, the filter and the box looks authentic. with this price, I would feel comfortable to buy directly from Aamzon not from Amazon Market Place sellers.

My local Wal mart and Amazon too offers a higher end Bosch filter but for double the price. I'll just go with this one. Bosch is Bosch why pay more for the same brand.

Update:

4/8/2013

This filter is made locally by a US manufacturer (Probably PUROLATOR). Bosch does not have a filter factory in the US. They contracted with a local factory to make those filters, paint them black, print a code on top, and ship them in bulk to another place where the filters are labeled with a paper sticker that has Bosch info and Bosch Model that correspond with the code printed by the manufacturer. the filter comes in a box that says : "country of origin is printed o the filter". I found the codes are very close to PUROLATOR codes.

All in all , I'm very satisfied with it.

What can I say? I read several reviews on-line about oil filters. The Bosch PREMIUM gets good reviews. It's priced right. It's slightly larger than the OEM on the Honda Fit a good thing. It fit perfectly. It wont break the bank. I ordered 2 for the next scheduled 10,000 mile oil changes. No kidding. The wife's 2012 Honda Fit just got 10,000 miles on the original oil before the driver's "oil minder" said it was due.

I'm running this filter with Mobil One Advanced Synthetic of the manual recommended grade of 0W-20.

FWIW, for over 4 decades I have heard so many arguments about what oil and what filter to use and people get really heated about it. Let me tell you that age old piece of advice that still holds true today. When it comes to engine life, it is more about changing the oil & filter when required and not so much about what oil or filter you use. Not that there are not valid arguments that if you use a certain oil or filter you can expect longer engine life. I'm sure that's true. But no, much simpler than that. When trying to figure for yourself what oil and filter to use, ask yourself when was the last time you wore out an engine. Most folks replace cars every 4 years. I've personally owned one I bought new for over 20 years (130K miles) and another for over 15 (135K miles) and another for 250K miles (don't remember the years). I changed the oil & filter religiously on all at 5000 mile intervals. I used anything from premium filters to Walmart Tech filters and oil to premium synthetic oil & filters. None of them EVER had an engine problem. The cars around those engines fall apart eventually. That's my point. So many people think that they have to use this or that so that they can get the most life from a car that they themselves will be replacing in about 4 years anyhow. They don't even give themselves a chance to wear it out.

So.... Change the oil & filter regularly and with what is recommended by the manufacturer. "Meet the specs" and worry not. Just my 2 cents.

the filter has a great drain back valve, with a fram filter my oil pressure light would turn on for 3-4 seconds when my engine was first started now with this filter the light is normally never on for more than 2 seconds Even after sitting for a week

Item works as intended. Looks and acts like normal filter from stores in person. No dislikes. Came in box as shown.

I have researched car parts and oil a fair amount and these Bosch filters usually show up near the top of the list for quality and the price is fair. If you change your oil at recommended intervals and don't drive in dusty conditions this is probably all the filter anyone needs. Has the flow, good antiflowback, gasket, etc that you need.

Filter installed fine. Just a word of caution. During my previous oil change, I had installed a filter from Napa which uses a self-contained (attached?) cap. None the wiser, I threw away the OEM filter cap thinking all filter medias came with one. Don't make my mistake and save $40-$80.

Simple and effective, used this to stop squeaks from hinges and a dishwasher door. It's doing best on the hinges, but need to reapply (6 months later) for the dishwasher which has started to squeak again.

Fantastic stuff! Made the squeaky door on the car go away and now it glides so easily. Don't use wd-40 use this in its place as it doesn't cause rust.

I ordered this to combat some squeaky doors around the house after seeing some recommendations for using white lithium grease on hinges. It really did a great job. I had tried WD-40 previously on the same doors with very short term fixes. Now these doors are silent and open and close smoother than ever. I just pulled out the pin on the hinge put a thin coat of the grease on there and put the pin back. I'm sure I'll find other uses, but for squeaks it seems to work great.

A good amount of White Lithium Grease for a good price. Make sure you just use a needle to puncture the applicator if you are going to use it on small parts (or you will have to squeeze a small amount out and then apply it with a smaller tool to get to those smaller gears).

I put a small hole in the tip and I couldn't ask for a better grease. It was a good price for such a large quantity.

As other people have noted already, the MANN Filter is an OEM part. The Audi filter I replaced had the same imprint and looked identical.

I have used Mann filters for years and never had an issue with them.

Highly recommend to spend a few bucks extra to get the Mann filter over a cheap aftermarket product.

I use this filter in my 2008 VW Passat with the 2.0 turbo engine. The VW "OEM" filter seems to be made by Mann because it has the same marks printed on on the end. I have always used Mann filters (oil, engine air, cabin air) on my European cars because I'm sure I'm right on top of OEM quality.

This is the OEM part for some of the VW canister filter replacement elements. Works great, cheaper than the dealer. The difference between the dealer and these are that the dealer's have "made in germany" stamped on them, these are "made in mexico". I can't tell the different and save $8 dollars.

Honest reviews on Mann-Filter HU 719/6 X Metal-Free Oil Filter

I tend to keep cars for a long time so maintenance is important to me. My Audi came from the factory with Castrol 5W-40 Synthetic oil and a mann filter installed. While I think there are some decent filter makers out there, Mann is German. My Audi is German. QED...

The kit includes the filter and the all-important rubber gasket (complete with a little tab so you can pull it out of the filter holder). You will need a few tools to change your oil since the filters are in a plastic canister that needs a 36MM socket to unscrew safely. Plus, the canister is full of dirty oil so you need a hard to find $50 drain tool. And you need a torque wrench to put the canister back on to the 25.5 Newton Meters torque specified by Audi. But once you have all that, the filter fits perfectly and does what a filter does!

Good luck... And make sure to wear gloves dirty oil is a health hazard.

My supercharged Beetle is now so much happier with a quality Mann filter installed. Running Amsoil 12K mile oil & filter there is a noticeable difference right off the bat.
