I always get tired when I buy replacement parts because you never know if they will fit. Other than that, I'm a Black+Decker guy with all my vacuums, tools, etc. branded Black+Decker. THEN WHAT! . The problem with their name brand vacuums is finding replacement parts. So if I find any like that, I'll keep my fingers crossed and they work! . exactly the same fit and look. only the small "how to" sticker that is on the original filter is missing. So from my point of view for this price ok.
