Miele Genuine FJM Bags 4 Bags + 2 Filters

Comment: Okay, they're vacuum bags. But they arrived on time. They fit and they work. So since Amazon asked so nicely I thought I would put it in writing.

Comment: Beware of this item. I ordered "8 bags with 4 filters" from Go Vacuum and received 4 bags with 2 filters. The guy at Go Vacuum said Amazon is advertising it wrong and that there have never been 8 bags with 4 filters in this style. Even the box that came has a sticker on it that says "FJM Miele Bags 8 Bags with 4 Filters". It's wrong. The guy at Go Vacuum said I could just "send them back if I didn't like them." Haha.

Comment: I can't tell you how fast you can finish vacuuming using this new design bag, no odors, no missing dirt or hairs anymore, what a difference, used to take me over 1 hour to go through the whole house now it takes me less then 15 minutes, the suction is greatly improved, my kid's room has a very thick rug, some of the dust would stick to it... normally I would have to go over and over the rug with my vacuum cleaner, to get the visual dust of the rug, sometimes I would have to get down on all four to get some of that dust by hand... not anymore ...what a difference a simply good design has made. Before that I was thinking of getting a new vacuum cleaner with a greater power, guess what, not a chance...Buy those bags and save plenty of time to get the job done right...and instead of HEPA filter I use the one for odor control Miele Active Air Clean Filter (For Odor Control) - S300/S400/S500 Series ...very pleased

Comment: I just love my two Miele cannister vacuums, they're great. We live on all tile floors with 10 dogs and a few cats, so everyday I vacuum up a ton of animal hair, and I go through vacuum bags quite frequently. I'm not paying $19 for four bags, that's ridiculous! I e-mailed Miele, they told me about how much better filtration the new bags afforded. I explained that filtration quality means nothing when cleaning very coarse animal hair. I'm not living in a "clean Room" at Intel!

I noticed that Bosch has also raised their cannister bag prices, so maybe it's a German thing. I started buying generic "FJM" 5 bags for $10 from Amazon, which work just fine. These cheap bags have a cardboard connection at top, instead of plastic, but doesn't matter. So I'm happy now. I'm not paying $5 per Miele bag!

Comment: I purchased 2 boxes of FJM vacuum bags which should have contained 5 bags each. However, I received the newer bags that are now made and contain only 4 bags. The picture on Amazon clearly showed the box that contained the 5 bags. I called the seller and explained this to him and he said he has been trying to clear this problem up, but Amazon has not corrected it as of yet. He was so nice that he sent me the extra 2 bags that I had expected to get. I hope for his sake correction is made soon.
