I recently purchased a cloth bag for my vacuum and it has made a significant difference in my cleaning routine. Based on my observations it seems to collect and hold more dirt and debris compared to my previous vacuum bags .With the durability of the material, I feel confident that it will last much longer than any disposable bags I've used in the past. The one downside is that IT requires a bit more effort to clean, but the benefits outweigh this minor inconvenience. Overall, a fantastic addition to any home and kitchen cleaning supplies..
