EL6985A Electrolux Harmony Motor Filter Review

This is not what I expected as a replacement for the Electrolux motor filter. Not only was it the wrong size, the part it replaced was molded and slotted to hold the filter in place. This is a piece of cloth filter fabric for 0.50 cents - nothing more!

The item delivered was the right size for my model but was of lesser density. You couldn't see the factory filter he replaced. You could. I'm hoping this will protect my motor from excessive dust but I plan on replacing this part soon as I don't think it will provide the same protection for the motor as Electrolux intended.

This is a very basic filter and a bit overpriced but it does the job. My dad said it would make more sense to buy something like this at a hardware store for a lot less. Either way, this will ensure that dust and other small particles don't get into your vacuum's motor, so check yours to make sure it's fine and clean, and if not, buy a new one. This product goes well with our Harmony (Red) vacuum cleaner (similar to the green UltraSilencer)

Firstly, the motor filters provided to me did not fit the UltraOne model. The original dimensions of the filter are 11x14cm. These were 11 cm squares. Second, these filters were twice as thin as the original filter. Third, the mesh used in these filters is much more open and porous than the original. I could literally see through them at some points. Don't waste your money on this product. I have no doubt that Electrolux will ever approve a crappy quality filter replacement like this. If you…
