EnviroCare Replacement Micro Filtration Vacuum Cleaner Dust Bags made to fit Hoover Windtunnel Upright Type Y 9 pack

Amazon did not like my first review of this product (too short and did not directly address the product qualities) and would not publish it so I will try again. Normally I do not get excited about vacuum bags unless they are defective in some way. The ENVIROCARE Hoover WindTunnel Upright Type Y Vacuum Bag worked as advertised, was easy to install, was the right price (not that a lower price wouldnt be acceptable) and was delivered on time in pristine condition. We have purchased this product from ENVIROCARE before (via Amazon) with similar satisfactions. I appreciate the ease of purchase via Amazon. I wonder if this will clear the Amazon editors !!!

I had a practically new bagless vacuum and found it to be untidy, dusty and really annoying, so I went searching for a powerful bagged vacuum that wasnt going to cost me an arm and a leg. I read the description and reviews on here and decided that this sounded like the one I needed. Most of the reviews said it was extremely powerful and also very noisy. It is both of those things. My dog hates vacuum cleaners and this one is a real pain for her! Lots of noise. But I found the noise worth it because of the power and the bags. Just so you know, most places no longer sell bags for vacuums. I had to order replacements on line. But I got a great deal so I was happy. If you buy this, order a supply of bags to go with it. These bags are great and what a deal!! Im very happy. Id buy another one for sure!

This is a very well made vacuum cleaner bag that is economically priced. It fit very well in my Hoover Wind Tunnel vacuum cleaner. And by the way, I went back to bagged vacuum cleaners after two very marginal experiences with bag-less vacuum cleaners. These vacuum cleaners had to be regularly disassembled so all of the foam filtration medium could be cleaned. If you didnt do this, this filtration medium plugged and the vacuum cleaner lost suction. These may have been bag-less vacuum cleaners, but they still had filtration medium that had to be serviced. A review of commercial type vacuum cleaners, e.g. - hotel, janitorial service, shows no bag-less models.

Value was great

Having a few dogs weve tried different vacuums - and there are a lot that call themselves pet vacuums. We went the bagless route for years but you are constantly emptying the dirt/dust into the garbage... it really does get annoying. We recently looked through reviews for pet cleaning vacuums and decided to go back to a bagged vacuum. Its such a relief to stop having to constantly stop to get rid of the dirt. Not only that, its a big difference on our allergies! Now it takes days of use to fill these bags - However - make sure you are putting the bag in correctly! When we opened the vacuum cleaner the bag was folded in half and we assumed at first that was how this bag was supposed to be. Well, its not! The bag cannot get filled more than halfway like that. There are videos on YouTube for any vacuum you buy that will demonstrate how the bag is supposed to be fitted. Before you assume you are doing it correctly just check!

great price like all hoover bags a little difficult to press on. I like disposing of the bags vs. cleaning as it gets rid of the tiny dust and mites and pollens without exposing myself to cleaning a canister. best if you push a hole in the bag inlet with your finger before pushing bag on.

This is the best bag I have found for using with the

These bags can be a little tough to find in retail stores these days and it was great to find them so easily online. The bags appear well made. Ive ran the vac a couple of times with it and performance is the same as any other bag. What makes these different is the dust window which is a clear strip of plastic at the front of the bag where there is normally paper. This lets you see how full the bag is rather than estimating. Id buy them again.

These bags work ok, but they dont filter as much dust as the genuine Hoover Hepa bags. The Hoover Type Y HEPA Filter Bags specifications say they filter 99.97% of the dust (they let 0.03% through), while the bags sold here have specifications that they filter 99.7% of the dust (they let 0.3% through). That means that according to the manufacturer specifications, these microfiltration bags let 10 times as much dust through as the Hoover Hepa. In using these bags, I do see more dust on the inside of the main filter compartment than I did when I used the genuine Hoover Hepa bags, and my impression is that the Hepa filter is getting dirty faster. I cant say that Ive noticed any difference in performance when Im not looking inside those compartments. So the bottom line is that if you care about Hepa filtration and the Hepa filter, Id think about sticking with the genuine Hoover Hepa bags. If that isnt a concern to you, then these bags will save you a lot of money.

A little hard to attach (tighter opening than most, not impossible) but once I got it on, its fine and does what it supposed to. Also they were much cheaper than when I buy them in the store so I am very happy with purchase and would buy these again.
