I have used K&N filter the entire time on my car. Owned it for almost 5 years and never had a problem.
Pros: no problems, long lasting
I highly recommend getting the k&n oil filter having a socket ready filter saves so much frustration
Pros: socket ready filter
Cons: frustration
You could look at a K&N drop in filter. They flow better and can give a little performance boost.
Pros: flow better, performance boost
K&N seems to always have the best option.
Pros: best option

For my 2018 tuned GT, I just got a K&N high flow drop in air filter to swap into it. You can get it off of American muscle for like $60. I'd say do that and save more money for tune/exhaust.
Pros: save money
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
There was a "performance" K&N filter and lots of detritus in the bottom of the air box I scrubbed down the box, and it is looking fresh. Except for the super greasy valve covers and rest of the engine bay. Oh, and I'm getting rid of the K&N filter--never been a fan.
Pros: scrubbed down box, looking fresh
Cons: never been a fan

Removed the K&Ns for some new paper filters. It'll suck to lose the 10% horsepower gain but I'll try not to die trying to pass Ford Flex's on the highway without it. The air box had a bunch of dirt/scum so I cleaned that out too.
Cons: lose 10% horsepower gain
All the MAF stuff aside, I've never been a fan. I've seen people with diesel trucks running that have collapsed and sucked into the intake tube. Granted our trucks don't have turbos, but that alone makes me question their quality. Plus I fear a more "open" filter would allow more particles. I'll keep my stock pleated filter.
Cons: poor quality, allows more particles
I used to run k&n years ago until I had a before and after used oil analysis done and silicates went up about 30%.
Cons: silicates increased 30%
