I had won this little Bosch Compact Plus vacuum in a wood working contest and it came with all original Bosch bags and filters, the cleaner has some real power for its little size way more than I expected. But at first you could only buy replacement bags directly from Bosch, which you can imagine was very expensive. To remedy the cost I started buying off brand bags close in size but I had to cut the mounting tab down in size to make it close but it just didn't have the same suction. Then while searching Amazon for an un-related item I saw these bags so I ordered 5. I didn't realize until they came is that I had ordered 5 bags of 5, then the light went off. Instead of paying $25 for 5 bags I just paid $25 plus tax for 25 bags, not if they worked, I had just scored one heck of a deal. Yes they work, suction is just as good as OEM, they have the same seal shut opening when removing bag to throw it away. No dust comes through the bag and back into the room through the exhaust. So all in all these bags are great and well worth the money, and as you know with Amazon behind them they came real fast!!!

So far these replacement bags work fine and I haven't had any issues. Compared to the price of the Bosch brand bags, definitely a much better deal.

I've been using these bags for the past few years with my Bosch canister. I have not run into the problems mentioned below about stalling out the vacuum. Granted these bags don't work as well as the original Bosch bags--the seal isn't as great, and the closing mechanism for when you remove the full bag isn't as good as the original. However, given the difference in price between these and the Bosch brand, the EnviroCare ones certainly work good enough. Now if someone would only make a cheaper replacement HEPA filter...

I have three dogs and that means I fill a bag pretty quickly, Bosch brand bags would be a small fortune in a yearly investment. These have been much more economical, and I haven't had any problem with my vacuum after 6 months of use. I remember people claiming that your vacuum suffers when you don't use name brand bags; honestly, I don't think my vacuum is such an elitist, as it still sucks--and that's what I'm looking for in a vac. The bags seem to be made totally of paper as I throw them in the composter after they are full and they have been composting fine. The bags made of microfiber have to be ripped open and dumped to compost--these are much easier and less messy. Green living people will be happy with that convenience. So I'd definitely recommend them; it's just hard to work up enough enthusiasm for a vacuum bag to say I 'love it' and give it 5-stars.

Nothing flashy about these bags, -- still they get the job done at an attractive price.

The only con is that they are on the small side (compared to OEM), but big enough for most uses.

Ordered several times through amazon. Perfect for my Bosch BSA 2222uc. Fit is good and suction is strong through these bags.

I notice no difference in the performance of these generic bags to the overpriced Bosch bags. I bought two packages and will buy many more of these bags as they work great!

If you are reading about this product you must already own a Bosch vacuum cleaner so you know how great it works already. I love that when you take the bag out, the little cardboard piece slides over the hole so dust and dirt don't go "poof" on your already clean carpet. It's very easy to reinstall too. Just slide it in place and close the cover; not like some that you have to try to force the hole in the new bag over the hose and you never quite know if it's on there securely. Love Bosch.

I've been using this for a couple of week and see absolutely no difference from the original ones, other than they are much cheaper. I ordered them from GoVacuum and they were promptly delivered. Will be using these from now on.

There is nothing really to say. You just need this vacuum bags when you have a Bosch vacuum. The seller had a really good deal and delivered very promptly without any hassle.
