I think they are great....got myself a 280mm from OC for my case and it works just fine. It is not flimsy as some might think and gives my system a sleeker look to be honest. More importantly, they work very well and you only need to pull them off every now and then and give em a wipe.

Im sure I saw someone on here who got creative with a pair of ladies tights, and used them as a dust filter

What are the fans doing in the case? Don't say moving air

If you set the fans to maintain positive air pressure (more intake than exhaust) this will help reduce dust in the case. With negative airpressure the case is pulling in air through all the nooks and crannies from outside. This will bring in dust which you cant catch on filters
