Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of HOOVER 40120101 HEPA Final Filter
Customer Review: It is what it is
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a filter. Just like the old one. Fits perfect, and it filters. Can't ask for much more.Customer Review: Not a tight fit
Summary: 2 Stars
This filter is much better than the foam type, but not as good as the original. The plastic frame does not fit tightly against the vacuum, and the air smells dusty every time I turn it on. A filter made by HONEYWELL #H13002 is great! I found it at Menard's, made by Home Care Filter Products Inc.
Customer Review: Not the right filter for my vacuum.
Summary: 2 Stars
I have a Self Propelled WindTunnel Upright, but this filter does not fit with my machine. It's going in our donate bag. Maybe someone else will be able to use it.Customer Review: The right filter is great if you get it!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Hoover 40120101 HEPA Final fits my Hoover Wind Tunnel vacuums -2 different models, and it does not leak air around it even though there is no gasket. It arrived in a Hoover box and had Hoover 40120101 embossed in the black plastic on top. I use HEPA bags with the HEPA final filter as I am vacuuming up wood dust that can cause allergic reactions and have had no problems.
I placed a second order for 3, this time with B & M Housewares and was unhappy to find my order arrive without an invoice, the filters without boxes or labels or protection from damage, and obviously NOT what I ordered. I suspect they are a non-Hoover 1 micron/activated charcoal final filter. I am sending them back - it seems fishy to send no invoice/no boxes - almost like someone was hoping I would not notice that I had been sent $5 filters and not the $14 filters I ordered. Be careful whom you buy these from!
Customer Review: inferior outsourced replacement
Summary: 1 Stars
As another reviewer mentions, this replacement does not fit well on the self propelled Hoover upright. It is missing the seal around the edge and allows air to pass around the filter making it nearly useless. Even though this is labeled as a Hoover product I learned from a vacuum supply store (where I should have gone first) that these are now made by Eureka and not Hoover. Instead of the hassle of returning and reordering, I found a large red rubber band and stretched it around the edge of the filter which helps to seal it a bit better. Another reviewer mentions having to use weather-stripping! So be warned, it is not the exact same match, it is an inferior replacement and should not be offered here.
