iv'e heard mixed reviews on them. cons: hard to clean and VERY delicate. I won't be running one, not worth the risk when you can go on ebay and buy 5 oil filters for like $15

All the magazines seem to love these things i have the dirt bike mag from like 5-6 months ago where they tested the DG i think and loved it 5 out of 5 stars. recommended them for anyone that has to change there oil as often as us. So where is the bad on these. the only bad i see is the initial 65- 70 dollars which if you think about how important a good oil filter is compared to the other things we buy at outrageous prices for these things its not that bad.

Haven't had a problem, it's surgical grade steel, filters better, plus hey, it's cleanable (parts washer). Only down part was the initial cost.
