Miele 7189520 G/N Replacement Dustbags



Work well but way too expensive
I am using these bags with my Miele Capricorn S5981 and like them a lot. They are extremely well made and in fact so substantial-looking that the first time I looked at them I thought surely this was a permanent bag and the actual dust collection bag would be inside it separately. Not so - these are in fact the bags you change out. Very impressed with that. They are also very easy to install and remove with no spillage from the bag when it is full.

That said, the price is mind-bogglingly high. Four bags for 19 dollars comes to $4.75 per bag. Ouch. Half that would be plenty, especially when like us you live with three cats and have a lot to vacuum on a daily basis. The one-star deduction is for that only.

Other than that this is possibly the most perfect vacuum bag there is. On second thought, make that the most perfect expensive vacuum bag there is :-)

Meile manufactured=Meile quality
I particularly appreciate OEM products; and Miele bags fit this description. They fit perfectly, contain and control everything the Miele machine vacuums, and slide closed at the neck to make sure the dust and dirt remain enclosed when you remove them from the machine. Purchasing these bags at Amazon.com made the entire process easy. Make sure you know which bags to buy for your Meile and buy Meile brand (not just "fits Miele vacuum" bags)at Amazon.com. It is as simple as that.

It kills me to spend this much on bags, but they are nice bags
I know, these are re-DONKULOUSLY expensive bags. However, they really do last forever. We sucked up about four months worth of dog hair, dust, hair, fuzz, etc (1800 square foot house with hardwood floors and a shedding dog, so a lot of dust) before changing it. And it's amazing when the bag comes out... the little valve gate snaps shut, and you're left with a pristine white pillow of a bag. I was tempted to take a nap on the thing, it was so clean. If I had to change bags every two weeks, forget it, but since they last so long, I can justify the high price of these.
