Items received was not what was advertised or pictured. First you do not get the 3 layer/3 color filter you expect to be Hoover. It is all white and thin. Until you read the back of the package it's for use in most Hoover product "EXCEPT" upright wind tunnels. Item is virtually useless and too cheap to bother returning. It went from my mail to trash.

Back in the day when I used the Y-allergen paper vacuum bags, I'd always find a significant bit of dirt and dust captured in this final filter. I've always used the allergen-capturing, high-efficiency paper bags so I'm not sure how or why this final filter was always dirty.

Now that I'm using the Filtrete (3M) cloth bags (which capture much more super fine particulate matter), the final filter doesn't get dirty anymore.

So in short, if you're using paper bags with your hoover windtunnel, I highly recommend this very affordable, easy-to-replace, final filter. If you're using the Filtrete bags, you may not even need it.

I order the product titled Hoover 4011004 Three Layer Final Filter. It should have been titled Hoover 40011004 one thick layer final filter. I ended it returning it to Amazon and finding a replacement filter for my Hoover Wind Tunnel with 3 layers made by 3M at Lowes. Amazon does have a great return policy though, they even paid for my shipping

Like previous buyers, I thought I was buying the filter with the green, yellow and white layers, as pictured on Amazon, but instead I received the standard all-white filter (directly from Amazon - not a supplier). And it turns out to be NOT recommended for my WindTunnel Self-Propelled Bagless vacuum.

I Googled item number "40110004" and found all Hoover filter images with the the green, yellow and white layers.

This error needs to be remedied.

I did not recieve the part pictured, although I recieve the part number. This was a part for my hoover windtunnel, but not the final filter, but the filter to prevent debris from entering the motor.

The filter I recieve looked more like this filter: http://www.hoover.com/parts/?category=filters&part=38766008

As someone else has already noted, the product you receive is NOT the one advertised. Mine is now cut into four different pieces so that it would "fit" in my vacuum. Not the best option.

I've seen some reviews on here saying that they didn't receive what was ordered or that the product information is incorrect. That is not the case. You simply have to pay attention to the description as it says for "non-self propelled" vacuums and make sure you look at the back panel of your vacuum to find the part number and model number. I researched this filter on hoover's website before I bought it here and they said that they had changed the filter to an all white one. Before you order this, check out hoover's website to find your compatible part number or look at the panel on your vacuum. (Should be on the back or bottom of the vacuum.) It will have the model number of your vacuum and the part number for the HEPA filter. This filter comes with a trimming guide so you can trim it to make it fit many models. This fits my Turbo 5200 without trimming at all. I have no complaints. There's no issue with this item as along as you make sure you are ordering the correct filter for your vacuum.

This filter was not the same as the original. Had to cut and piece together. I ordered for a windtunnel. It also wasn't 3 layer like picture.

The product shown in the pictures is not the product that was shipped. I had to go to other stores to try and find the proper filter. A complete waste of my time to use the Hoover Store on Amazon.

The product I received was not what I thought I was ordering. I thought I was ordering a "3 layer" filter (green, yellow, and white being the different layers) and what I received was a flimsy white knockoff that I had to cut to fit my vacuum.
