It could fit better in a basket, but it's the right size and does the same job as the much more expensive original kits that I paid $16 a piece for at my local sweeper. The carbon cap is still working after two months. Picks up an impressive amount of dirt after each sweep and that's just us two retirees in a carpeted house with no pets. I am impressed. If it went a little better with the basket clamps I would give it 5 stars.
