Not suitable for hand and power tools

My RIGID Shopvac has a label advising it to use a VF3500 filter. It is NOT eligible for return. I will not try to change it like others have done.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Works great but now twice as loud

Bought for my Ridgid wd3019 cordless handheld vacuum. The filters fit perfectly and appear to be working. However, the vacuum cleaner is now twice as loud as before and it is not clear why?

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Good for the price. Works great

Fits well, a little hard to put on the base, can handle the sticky black plastic that doesn't slide easily? Otherwise, after editing, it fits and works just as well as the original.

Pros
  • Not just useful for it's intended purpose
Cons
  • Upgrade available

Replacement prevents engine damage

Although these filters can be brushed and rinsed to clean, they will eventually need to be replaced to prevent engine damage. Such damage from insufficient airflow through the filter or dust entering through the filter causes overheating. Inexpensive engine protection.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Negative available

Poor quality secondary filter.

This is a non-genuine hard filter replacement. Do not buy. Filter collapsed/collapsed during installation. OEM allows for multiple disassembly, cleaning. Worth the extra cost. I use the aftermarket whenever possible to keep costs down. Not this time.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model

Tight fit good value

I've been through this a few times unless you buy filters made of stiff... They are made in China they fit very well but they seem pretty good made to be. Overall they seem like good value for money, you just need some soapy water and elbow grease to put them on.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Repair

no comparison to the original ryobi filter - you get what you pay for!

This filter is disappointing - cheaply made compared to the original Ridgid. While Ridgid's original shows rubber welded onto the filter sheets (which traps more dirt), this company simply encases the filter pleats with pleats at the top and bottom; The individual filter pleats are smaller (less debris to catch) and unperforated, making this filter much less efficient than the Ridgid.

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • Not sure

Built to suck up dirt!

I tried it without really knowing what to expect. I usually buy the Rigid brand but this came in a pack of two and the price was right. Sometimes that can mean you will be disappointed with the product, but in this case it was a great decision. They work well in my 3 gallon Ridgid vacuum. When I installed the filter I noticed a ridge at the top and was concerned it wouldn't sit quite right, but once I installed it and pressed it onto the bottom it slid right in. Another thing I love about thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Neutral
