The product isn't what it used to be

I ordered it from the Reorder section of my Revain page. For the first time, the filters fit perfectly on my vacuum cleaner. Since I "reordered" I figured it was a guarantee it would be the same item. They are completely different and do not match my vacuum cleaner at all. I've tried trimming one to see if I can change it enough to make it work, but that's not possible. I had to send them back as soon as I realized they were different.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Sad packaging

Not suitable! No refund!

Be careful as this product will appear as an offer when ordering specific sizes of Kenmore bags and will not even work with the vacuum the bags are designed for. And you can't return them. Very angry now. Why offer to buy these together with Kenmore bags if they are not compatible with the same vacuum cleaner? makes angry. And yes, I had to make sure they were compatible first! Please check the recommended items for yourself as they are not always the correct items.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • No Instructions

Not for Kenmore upright 31140

UPDATE: I heard from the manufacturer that EF-1 doesn't fit 31140. The filter for this vacuum cleaner is EF-9. The original Kenmore 31140 Upright EF filter is thicker than the replacement, but that's to be expected given the lower cost. What was not expected was the difficulty in removing the original EF filter. Kenmore's manual shows the old filter just "pops out", but it was DELETED and difficult to remove. Also, the remaining adhesive around the edges makes it difficult to install a…

  • good thing

Perfect fit and function

Have you checked your HEPA filter lately? I definitely don't. The back of our canister vacuum literally emptied itself when turned on. I couldn't figure out why until I looked at the HEPA filter and it was completely black with dirt stuck and stuff. He wasn't letting air through, so he squeezed it out of the vacuum. Looks like Sears has never had mine in stores so I ordered it here. Received in perfect condition and fits perfectly. In fact, I have two models of vacuum cleaners and they both use

Pros
  • Captures 99.7% of allergens
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings about it, everything is fine

Poor Quality Control Rack HEPA Filter

I don't normally have problems with Envirocare bags but based on my original order and my replacement order these HEPA filters seem to have a 50% failure rate to have . When first ordered, the rib on the folds was asymmetrical on one side, which interfered with assembly. I opened another filter in a pack of two to see if it was worth replacing - the second one was fine. When I ordered a replacement, the ribs were ok, but the first filter I opened had a fold torn (hole). Revain Prime was…

Pros
  • 2 Kenmore HEPA Filter #86889 envirocare #976
Cons
  • Empty

Well you have three options, either buy this EnviroCare filter to match your Kenmore filters or go to the Sears support site and purchase the Kenmore version (if available on all ) or purchase the Panasonic version of the EF-1 filter from the Panasonic support site. Panasonic made almost all of the Kenmore brand vacuum and canister vacuum models. My concern is that aftermarket filters like EnviroCare don't meet the specs. Yes, I'm paranoid. The problem is, how do you know it's a REAL HEPA…

Pros
  • ; 5 7/8 x 4. If you need a smaller size check item B0007INDN6
