Not in my opinion, I bought one of each and the Bosch came with the wrong size drain plug washer and I had to use one from another filter. The mann and hengst are fine. I think Bosch is overextending itself getting into all sort of automotive parts and home appliances etc. It should stick to automotive elctrical components and systems.
