The Ultras are actually good. The grippy rubberized bottom is a nice convenience too.
Pros: good quality, convenient

I use either Mobil 1 0w20, or Royal Purple 0w20. For the filter, I use Fram Titanium. I do all routine maintenance myself. I've got a 2015 SR DC with 388k miles, and have never had any issues. It still runs perfectly.
Pros: no issues, runs perfectly
Mileage: 624414 km
Quality air filter changed regularly. Quality oil filter Frams higher end stuff are surprisingly well made for the $.
Pros: surprisingly well made
I have been a fan of the Fram Freshbreeze or Pureflow filters. Not as good as the Bosch HEPA for other cars, but seem pretty good at least for filtering allergens and some particulates.
Pros: filtering allergens, particulates
Cons: not as good as Bosch
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
These oils are only as good as the filters you pair them with.
Pros: good with right filter
Cons: bad with cheap filter
Fram is absolutely the worst filters ever. Years ago a motorcycle forum I belonged to cut open a bunch of major brand filters, K&N, WIX, FilterPro (store brand style) Fram and NAPA. NAPA and WIX were the best bang for the buck, K&N obviously the best but also much more expensive. Fram was shocking, all the internals were cardboard, no metal reinforcement etc. Absolute garbage.
Cons: cardboard internals, poor quality
I had a FRAM oil filter on my 05 Impreza, I think the part number was #PH6607, I noticed i i was “burning” a ton of oil! I went to do my usual 3K Mile oil change. I noticed the oil levels were alot lower than the time i check a few days prior! I looked under the car and there was oil EVERYWHERE! Mainly built up around the filter!
Cons: oil leak, low oil levels
I used a FRAM oil filter on the car at my last oil change and it turns out it collapsed internally triggering a low engine oil pressure to my ECU. The garage (VW/Audi/Porsche specialized) told me to never use anything other than Mann filters on my GTI since everything else is either gonna collapse or be more expensive than the Mann for no added benefits.
Cons: collapsed internally, low oil pressure
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
The cardboard construction on a Fram filter would have come apart.
Cons: poor construction
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
Only filter I’ve ever had fail on me is a FRAM. Never again.
Cons: filter failure
