What Customers Are Saying

The reusable shop vacuum filter received mixed reviews. Some customers found it durable and effective at trapping debris, while many others reported issues with the fit and quality. The main positive was that the filter is washable and reusable, potentially saving money. However, the majority of reviews indicate significant problems, with the filter not fitting properly or tearing easily during installation. The overall consensus is that the product's performance is inconsistent, and customers should carefully check compatibility before purchasing.

Tears apart at the bottom

Would Recommend

Great idea, but the product tears apart at the stitching on the bottom.

Bad Fit, waste of time

Would Not Recommend

This filter bag is completely useless. It is advertised as “universal fit” and is displayed right next to the 5 gal vacuum I bought and is WAY too small to fit the vacuum. I returned it.

NOT as described

Would Not Recommend

Prefilter? No. Fits over inner foam filter only, not outer paper filter. I bought a "prefilter" to put over the outer paper filter to make it last longer. Nope, sorry. Universal? Maybe for the inner foam filter. Says large, way too small for a 12 gal Shop-Vac large paper filter. Never even tried to fit it over the foam filter so I never got to the point that it tears. Back to Lowes. Maybe the De Pot will have an actual prefilter...

Poor fit and quality

Would Not Recommend

Directions are not clear but I assumed this was meant to be used in lieu of the pleated filter. It was a very tight fit over the plastic frame on my 8 gallon Shop Vac and I tore the elastic band almost immediately. Doesn't "fits most" and obviously not "reusable"

The title says it all

I like that this bag is washable and thus saves money on the single use paper bags.
