Review on 🔨 RIDGID VF3502, 5 Pack High Efficiency Replacement Filter Bags for 12 to 16 Gallon Ridgid Wet/Dry Vacs - SpaceTent Part by Eric Nallamothu

This would be a really good buy if they didn't unravel in the side seams so often! The stitching looks good, doubled and taped. But for some reason too often the glue just peels off. They fit nicely on my rigid vacuum cleaner (but much easier if you rip off, or at least bend back, the round cardboard valve in the hole). But four out of ten bags separated at the side seam when vacuuming, causing dust to clog the main filter, and in one case a quarter-sized hole formed in the sidewall of the bag for no apparent reason. It happened with the bags, maybe 10-15 percent full. A real pain every time you try to clean the main filter and fit a new bag. Eventually I started using a regular stapler along each seam, which worked well, although even with this solution, one packet still leaked a little in the corner. Update August 2021: The company that sold them got their money back after seeing a review. Upgrading to two stars but leaving a review to warn other buyers of this issue. Hopefully the company will find a new, better adhesive for their manufacturing process.
