Review on EZ SPARES 2PCS Kenmore Hepa Vacuum Media Filter EF-9#53296#40195 + Small Cleaning Brush Replacement Kit by Lori Kurtz

They look the same as regular EF-9 filters, but there is too much foam around the edges and they DO NOT fit properly in the Kenmore Elite 31150 upright vacuum. You cannot close the filter Door. The seller mentioned that I cut off some of the foam and I tried but there is no way to cut it properly without the foam coming off. The foam is needed to seal the filter to the vent or air will escape.
