We need to post shoot out videos. Fastest guy that can change the filter measured in seconds. I'd honestly try to shoot for 7 seconds.

It's probably gonna take me 30 seconds, and then I'm gonna yell, "dammit, I should've bought a CRV!!"

you could do it in 30 seconds... but that seems like an unnecessary hurry. I just found no need to detach when inspecting the filter... of course you should remember to empty the glove box first.
(yes)
I had no trouble changing mine. I leave the climate control running permanently so at 12 months I just whizzed it in the bin. The old one was full of flies and black crud. I pondered on cleaning it but decided it wasn’t worth it. I could perhaps do it in 30 seconds in a race but ordinarily it would take 5 minutes or so.
Weird. Changed 2 yesterday, about 30 seconds each.
This is a joke right? I have changed my in cabin filter 6 times in the last 4 years. Each time in less than 20 seconds.
I was surprised how easy it was to replace. I followed the instructions in this video and definitely could do it in 30 seconds if the replacement filter was already opened. The video shows it in real time (except for when they got the new filter) and it took them 1 minute, 2 seconds with them moving slow as heck.

To be fair, the OP is not the first person having some problems to change cabin air filter in recent months. I guess people say it's too easy all the time which makes a little obstacle in process becoming frustration.Is this a joke? I think I missed the sarcasm.. try upgrading the front sway bar then come back..

Cabin Air Filter & Glove Box Removal
I think I could change mine blindfolded... try changing on a Nissan product... my Infiniti requires a major disassembly of the glove box. In that car you even have to disconnect a connector for the passenger side airbag. It's an hour or more of your time you want back.
The only vehicle I have found easier than my Mazda is my GX... it actually has a door at the rear of glove box you remove to get to filter. CX-5 is dead simple on this task though.

All you guys who are posting about how fast you can change the cabin filter must be forgetting one VERY important step!
Beer!
Beer is required for almost all car maintenance and job times should be measured in the number of beers consumed while performing said maintenance.
