Accessories - Vacuum Cleaner Bags

A vacuum cleaner which is fitted with a bag will generally be cheaper than its bagless counterpart but, by and large, the bags are not re-useable, so you’ll need to buy new bags. If you’re buying a new vacuum cleaner, it’s worth buying some vacuum cleaner bags at the same time, so you’ll have them handy.

Different types of vacuum cleaner bags have different features. Some, for example, have a layered construction, which helps with filtration. Some bags also have flaps that close automatically when you remove the bag from the vacuum cleaner to stop any dust from escaping, a bonus for those people who suffer from allergies.

Universal vacuum cleaner bags are not widely available, as manufacturers tend to make bags tailored to their own models, so you’ll need to check the product descriptions carefully to ensure that the bag you are about to buy will fit your vacuum cleaner.

Here are details of some of the different vacuum cleaner bags currently available:
