Review on Vacuum Filter Replacement Kit for Dyson V7, V8 Animal and V8 Absolute Cordless Vacuum - Includes 3 Post Filters and 3 Pre Filters - Replaces Part # 965661-01 & 967478-01 by James Gregg

Good buy for the price

Admittedly the price made me reach for this set because my filters for my Dyson v6 Absolute were starting to smell a bit strange so I ordered them. The primary internal filter (looks like a cone) snaps into place with no issues, and while it feels a little less sturdy than the original, its fit, functionality, and price far outweigh any complaints I might have. After the replacement, the unpleasant smell during the operation of the vacuum cleaner immediately disappeared, so I definitely recommend buying a kit. Having said that, the rear filter does NOT work with the Dyson v6 Absolute - the size is too big and it lacks a 'Max' button on the back. So lesson learned, and for the price it's still a good buy, but check the compatibility!

Pros
  • A few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
