This pre-filter sucks! (in a good way)

It was hard to find a "sock" pre-filter that would fit my large Craftsman 9-17816 paper filter. This washable pre-filter has room! It works so well. I also bought a new paper filter to see how clean it stays. So far this "sock filter" is easy to clean. I just smack it with my hand while it's still attached over the trash can in the yard. After a few uses, the paper filter underneath is as clean as the day I replaced it. No matter how dusty the "sock" is, the suction power of the vacuum cleaner…

Pros
  • understandable even for the old
Cons
  • periodicity

Works but often clogs

I have a Ridgid 16 gal. Shop vacuum cleaner 6.5-Peak HP, which I bought it for. I'm renovating a house I just bought and I'm tired of cleaning the filter due to drywall and wood dust. At first I was very impressed, the filter remained flawless. Annoyingly, it works so well that it clogs and sticks to the FilterPal. I had to shake off the dust 2-3 times a day with normal vacuuming. The fit is also a little off. The FilterPal was too long and didn't wrap very tightly around the filter. I ended up

  • Worth the money

Keeps filters clean

I use my small shop vacuum for a lot of things. One thing is dust removal from the seams. This talc-like dust easily clogs the filter and is difficult to clean. Filter Pal keeps most of the dust on the filter and on the bag. I take the bag off, shake things out in a plastic bag, then shake it out and put it back in. Lasts for 4-5 times and then wash in the washing machine. I bought a second one after having two weeks to have a fresh one when I work to keep vacuuming. Expensive but effective. As

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Tradeable

Helpful but not a miracle cure

This is not a complete solution to the problem of clogged vacuum filters, but it is an improvement. I have a rigid shop vacuum cleaner, it's about 15 years old. It still works well, but for some reason I've only been able to use the filter once in the last few years before having to clean it or change it (it clogs up with fine dirt in the first few minutes of use). use). I suspect this is because I have a dust collection system installed in my shop that leaves nothing but very fine dirt for the

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

So far, so good. - Power & Hand Tools

Use this in my Craftsman brand store. I used it once for Grandma's spring cleaning and damn I vacuumed a lot of dust and dirt (I think I vacuumed 10 feathers lol). I inspected the filter underneath and it looked brand new. I can't check for loss of suction, I have a medium-sized 3.0 HP vacuum cleaner. Haven't used this on drywall yet but it's thick enough I think will do. I've never tried the non-HD version, so don't know the difference in performance. I can tell everyone my filter is lasting…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • I will write later

One size – not really.

I think the product works as described as it keeps my other filter clean. Problem is I wanted to use it on my 4 gallon shop vac. The product is almost 3 times larger than the filter so I had to use a rubber band to install it. It wasn't possible to tuck it under the filter as shown in the video as the perimeter is too large and the filter spacing too small to fit everything so it tended to only stick well about three quarters. Also, it takes up about a half gallon of vacuum space and touches…

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • New competitors

IMO if you don't use any of these you are wasting $$

I've been using them for years and just bought another shop vacuum for another home and another for him. My old one is probably 3-4 years old and still fine. Usually when I'm emptying a shop vacuum I just knock the dust out of the thing by shaking it or blowing it with compressed air, it's pretty messy but it works. The main thing is that the vacuum cleaner filters stay clean and no longer have to be replaced. Only very fine dust gets into the vacuum filter, which can usually be easily blown…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Very expensive

Awesome and simple idea to improve Shopvac performance

I bought the FilterPal after looking through a few ShopVac filters. I often use my vacuum outside and pick up a lot of organic material. This is a great way to clog a filter quickly and even with a blast of compressed air the filters will get that clean before the pores become permanently clogged with this material. Sign in to FilterPal. This is a very simple idea that works well. It has a much larger air passage area, so the vacuum cleaner runs longer before it has to be stopped to clean the…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Functionality
