After a couple of minutes running the vacuum with this filter attached, the room starts to smell really bad. The first few times, I didn't quite realize where it was coming from. Now I know, and can hardly wait to get a new filter and throw this one away. Yuck!
A Bonus for Anyone With Allergies
July 24, 2008
I am retired and I love to do things around the house. Vacuuming is one of the jobs that I almost always do myself.
Unfortunately I have an allergy to dust; if I stir up dust it always makes me start sneezing. As a results I am always interested in things that reduce dust in the air.
I've used the Eureka 4870 now for over two years and have been very pleased with the job it does. One of the things I appreciate about it is its ability to confine the dust it picks up. This HEPA filter is an important part of that ability.
I mentioned in a review on the bags that are recommended with the Eureka 4870 that the bag seems to do an excellent job. That coupled with this filter has eliminated any sneezing for me when I vacuum the house.
Another interesting result of the bag's efficiency is the HEPA filter seems to gather dust very slowly. I've checked it regularly and it seems to stay relatively clean even after repeated vacuumings.
The combination of the bag and HEPA filter have really impressed me, particularly the fact that I can vacuum the house now without any sneezing at all.

Filter works really well. It keeps the dust out of the air and off of furniture.

This filter fit our Eureka vac perfectly, and we noticed an increase in performance replacing this in our cleaner.
