Review on 🧹 Hoover Type S HEPA Bag (6-Pack), 4010808S: Superior Filtration for Optimal Cleaning Performance by Jen Schuelke

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Beware the bags I received were generic no markings on the bag cheap fakes

When my order arrived I immediately noticed there was no markings or writing on the outside of the bag, only white. The last time I ordered Hoover S Type bags they were clearly labeled, with the Hoover brand etc. Although the ones I just bought in January and have received 12 since my last order have been so successful they have only been white, with no markings, instructions etc. The bags are the same shape and size as the bags I've bought before so I thought they would be fine. I used one for the first time two weeks ago. I noticed the suction dropped today so I decided to change the bag even though it usually takes me over two weeks to change it. There was more dirt in the vacuum cleaner than in the bag. I cleaned the inside of the canister and filter and put in a new bag, taking extra care to ensure it was seated properly. Again there was dirt in the canister and very little in the bag. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that when I closed the top of the canister, the rubber grommet around the hole in the bag was misaligned. It was about 1/8 inch off so I cut off the bottom of the cardboard that slides into the slot on the vacuum cleaner and it seems to be working crossed thumbs now.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Sparse instructions
