Review on 🗑️ Dust Cup Filter Replacement for Eureka Style DCF 16 Filter by EnviroCare by John Caine

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits Eureka UNO 2998-AZ

Purchased for Eureka UNO Model 2998 Type AZ. Many of these vacuums came with false labels stating that a DCF-9 filter should be used. The DCF-9 filters are too short to use! In a way, this DCF-16 is denser than original equipment—harder to cover with a lid—yet allows more air to escape around the edges (visible as dust particles). collection in places previously kept clean). Maybe it will come to mind after prolonged use. The rubber frame also has a much stronger odor than previous frames from Eureka and another brand that no longer makes them, especially after long vacuuming sessions. Despite the obvious air leak, it works and there is no obvious abnormal accumulation of dust in the final filter stage. The last filter is real HEPA and comes after this DCF-16 filter. Knowing a thing or two about how HEPA filters are made, this company's claim that the DCF-16 filter is a HEPA filter seems like a blatant lie. However, DCF-16 filters are not intended for use as HEPA; That's what the power stage filter is for.
