These are so much easier to clean up than the combination filter (foam / paper) that are supposedly usable for wet and dry pick up. I used my ShopVac to empty a algae clogged man made pond earlier this season. The algae was simple and fast to rinse out of the foam filter sleeve. It would have been a major task with the other filter. The Shopvac 905-85-1 Foam Filter Sleeves are less expensive than the other filters. When they get too gross or filthy, just toss and replace it.

I think these foam filters are the better choice for wet pick up uses and I'm happy with this purchase.

Fits very old shop vacs that have only the foam sleeve. I hope this saves you some time when buying. I had to hope and pray when I took a chance and ordered it.

The black filter pictured here is NOT the filter you will receive. I received a filter that was too small for a newer shopvac and tore on trying to put it over the filter it was supposed to protect. This filter is ONLY for the older shopvacs. IGNORE the photo.

This was a waste of money. It doesn't fit on the filter and it tore as soon as I attempted to put it on. You don't need it to begin with, the bag and the filter do the job fine, I wish amazon had not recommended this item. It was only a few bucks but it left me frustrated and angry.

Please note other reviewer comments. This sleeve DOES NOT FIT newer vacuums. Customer service quickly handled my return, and contacted seller to inform them of the problem. Don't order this sleeve with a new vacuum.

Amazon appears to rotate this item from one retailer to another. In my own case, the filter I received is a generic filter and not as advertised here. This filter is NOT manufactured by Shop Vac. I purchased the Shop Vac wet filter at a store, and it is made from a courser foam material and is a slightly different size. The filter listed here may work, but be aware, it is not made by Shop Vac and is not identical to the real item. The filter I received did work on the newest 16 gallon Shop Vac, but it was a really tight fit.

I do not advise to purchase this as the product is nothing like in the picture. It is a piece of sponge tape together that breaks open when try to install.
I want my money back as this is highway robbery.

Nothing like advertised. Does not fit over cartridge as advertised. Amazon needs to quit stating that most buy this with cartridge filter. Waste of time and money.

This "sleeve" is advertised as being able to be put in place of a filter. It really just goes over an existing filter, and looks nothing like the picture shown. A little more clarity would be nice.

DID NOT EVEN COME CLOSE TO FITTING AND LASTING. I WILL NEVER BUY FROM AGAIN. i MUST HAVE GOT THE WRONG FILTER IT TOOK ABOUT 2 WEEKS. I WILL QUIT BEING SO LAZY AND GO TO THE STORE NEXT TIME. MERRY CHRISTMAS
