3.0 out of 5 stars Some of the filters listed here are actually GENERIC filters, May 2, 2011

This review is from: Ridgid VF5000 2-Stage Pleated Paper Vacuum Filter (Tools & Home Improvement)

One of the sellers of the Genuine Ridgid VF5000 filter (Total Vac) is actually selling both the GENUINE and the GENERIC versions of the filter. Unfortunately, both versions show up under the GENUINE part. To their credit they do mention in small print that it is generic but when Amazon sends you your confirmation of the sale they make no mention of it being generic so you think you are going to receive the real thing. The generic part should be removed from being sold under the genuine part and should receive its own listing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Filter - Well Worth The Investment, March 6, 2010

We got the ORIGINAL filter and put it aside when we were cleaning our house. We got the BLUE Ridgid VF5000 Microban Treated Fine Dust Replacement Filter at Home Depot for about 23.00. It was well worth it. We cleaned all the drywall dust from my house with this bad boy. I heard many people would have to toss them after use. Not with this. Cleaning a 2,500 square foot house twice with this filter. The finest dust was cought. When it got really full we had to empty the canister and clean the filter outside the house a few times per hour. But well worth the extra work cleaning then getting a new one. When we were finished I thought that this filter was shot. NOT SO. I took it home and dusted it off with my other sweeper and cleaned it - then ran under warm water and rinsed all the fine dust off. We let it sit and dry overnight and it was like brand new! Now I just need to know what I can use for WET VACCUMING! Love RIGID!

Filter works great. It was a little different than the original filter, but was the upgrade Ridgid recommended. I bought two.
