Default Buon Vino filter - advice requested

I'm looking at buying a mini jet filtering system for my wines. I
make a number of different small quantity fruit wines - normally
anywhere from 1 gal to 5 gal batches. I don't anticipate filtering
all the wines as most clear very well on their own. But I give away
probably half of my wines as gifts, and I'm just as fussy about their
appearance as I am their quality. This is one piece of equip that
I've pondered purchasing for some time. My questions are these:

1. The unit offered for sale comes with two #2 filters, are those
standard?
2. Can a filter be re-used, or are they good for one application
only?
3. Can a large batch sometimes require more than 1 filter?
4. Will filtering generally replace the act of fining a wine?
5. Is the filtering system easy to clean and relatively maintenance
free?

Thanks in advance for any assistance offered...
