Kenmore Fabric HEPA Cloth Bags

"These Kenmore very large capacity HEPA fabric cloth bags, do a excellent job at keeping all the dirt and dust inside the bag; however, they cost more $ per individual bag then it's worth purchasing." "I highly recommend purchasing the Kenmore canister type C Allergen Filtration bags, instead because... read full review »

Buy in store, not through internet

These are the bags I prefer to use with the my Kenmore canister. My two big issues: 1) The bag is a bizarre size relative to the canister itself. It is not entirely intuitive how to install the bag as a result, and it simply does not fit well. I have had some occasions where dust got all over the inside... read full review »

I use the Kenmore Canister Vacuum Bags, which are made from a cloth material, on all my super dusty areas of the house like the basement and garage because they keep all the dust, dirt and allergens from re-entering into the air. The bags are super sturdy and can hold alot. They are also very easy to load and remove from my canister vacuum.

I have used the hepa bags previously. My daughter found less expensive paper bags, which I also used. I changed the paper bags twice as much and had a bad experience with pet dander and my guests. I have returned to use the hepa bags with much better results, especially with my guests, and will not switch again. The large size of bags are not important although the price does set one back a bit as I change the vacuum bags once a week at least, full or not.

The Hepa filtration of the bags is great.  However the cost for three bags is quite expensive when you can get the paper bags for much cheaper.  I wonder how much of a difference it really does make.  I bought them this time, but next time with use my old canister bags and see if I can tell the difference.

Kenmore Canister Vacuum Bags are pretty easy to use, even if you're older than old.  They hold up really well.

These bags are wonderful for keeping pollen and dog dander out of the air when vacuuming. The only drawback is the price, they are about 4 times the cost of a regular bag.

not worth the price

I have owned a Progressive  for about 6 years and have used the HEPA bags, the bag itself holds dust but the entry way of the bag does not, for the last 3-4 years the connection where the bag hooks up leaks massive amount of dust, it is wore out, like pretty much everything else on the vacuum, I have lost both wheels on the brush part, the brush is making a horrendous noise, the vacuum does not seem to suck as much as my old one I had previously to this one, I had it in for repair the connection from tube to the brush broke, and I could not undo the connection at the hand held area to the hose....

Vacuum Cleaner Bags

These vacuum cleaner bags work great and they last for quite a few vacuums. I highly recommend them. They are well worth the money.

Good Review

The bags are good for holding the dust down even when removing them from the vacuum cleaner - I like being able to order them and them arriving on time from Sears. I will be doing this again

I buy the Hepa bags rather than non Hepa bags for my Kenmore vacuum sweeper. While the Hepa are a little more expensive, they last a lot long and do a better job of keeping particulants from being blown back in to the air while vacuuming. and with my allergies, that is very important.

Great Bags

I vacuum for a living and these bags are the best. 5055 was the best design ever. I use them every day on my kitchen floor. Keep up the great work, Sears and God Bless America.

Excellent Product / Excellent Service

I continue to be very pleased with the value of the purchases I have made at SEARS over the years. And I really like being able to purchase supplies online. I purchased vacuum bags for my Kenmore Canister Vacuum-the 3M Filtrete design. Combined with the dust filtration features of the machine, these bags give even more control over fine dust when using the unit-and when disposing of the bag when finished. I plan to order more in the future.

I have owned only Electrolux vacuum cleaners most of my house cleaning life, and I just purchased a new Sears Progressive canister with the Hepa filter. I was only given one bag, the one that was in the vacuum cleaner. I have a dog and 5 cats, and after two vacuumings, my filter was pretty full from the dust & hairs. I have wood floors, but two large area rugs. The vacuum cleaner was not exactly easy to get started. Unlike my electrolux, which was easy to fit together, the Progressive was not. I had to literally turn to the directions, which is not something I was accustomed to with the Electrolux....
