Review on Upgrade Your Dyson DC07 with 4YourHome's Pre & Post Motor Hepa Filter Kit by Julie Spalding

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The HEPA filter does not have a gasket, but the gasket from the old filter was glued on.

New HEPA filter DOES NOT SUPPLY with gasket. I read it in the description but thought I could use that from the old filter. What you don't know is that the gasket is glued to the filter and cannot be easily removed and reused. I was able to carefully remove the old gasket and put it on the new one with household glue I had in my tool box, but it takes some work to remove the gasket and clean it for reuse. Another issue is that the plastic used in the case is very soft and you have to be careful to pry up the tabs to remove the cover and reveal the HEPA filter. I didn't break anything, but I got close enough to be concerned. I have a feeling the company could add a gasket for a few bucks more, or the filter should come with a gasket if it was originally glued on from the start. Despite this issue I was able to replace both filters and now my Dyson really sucks!

Pros
  • Household and kitchen
Cons
  • Doubtful
