A bent pipe may allow moisture to condensce more quickly and may cause a gurgle. Of course, it may not.

Get rid of the filter and keep lots of pipe cleaners on hand. Don't take your pipe apart to use them though. If there is even a slight feel or sound of condensation present, use a pipe cleaner. The steam from that H2O will cause nasty tongue bite.

So, basically go with the one you like. Hey, they're cheap, get one of each and decide which you like better.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
