Not FEEL, but I've had my used ones analyzed for particulates captured by them and the flow rate of them compared to used OEM filters, and the Bosch came up with better results (3750~ miles), even after doing 2 oil changes and leaving the same Bosch filter on (7500~ miles)

yep, i just use factory filters and change them out during each oil change. for me, would be overkill to use anything more.

I use only K&N or Purolator Pure One although Bosch are highly rated like you state.
