Review on ๐Ÿ” Craftsman 9 17816 General Purpose Cartridge: Top-Performing Filter for All-Purpose Use by Hector Watkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Filter works but needs modification to fit

I have the same brand filter expected to match exactly with the exact model of my vacuum cleaner printed on the box. Apparently the new method of attaching this filter is supposed to be a swivel nut, but the filter is too long to work on the threaded rod in my vacuum. After playing with it for a few minutes, removing the filter each time, I gave up. I got out my Dremel tool and used a cutting wheel to cut off the bulge in the center of the filter to expose enough threads and used the original threaded nut to tighten the stem and hold the filter.

Pros
  • Craftsman Red Stripe universal filter is used to remove everyday dirt such as sawdust, wood shavings, construction waste and car or truck dirt
Cons
  • High price
