is it worthwhile getting hte HEPA filter for this S83890 vacuum cleaner?

I did get the hepa filter for this vacuum. It does help a lot with the dog hair. I have a shepherd mix with a lot of underfur. The filter helped capture the hair and left my house smelling fresher because the hair with dander was captured. They last a long time. I purchased this for Xmas last year (2013) and have not had to change the filter yet. (7/2014)

Ther are probably different options, but I've not found them. Even at $90, getting the full set of filters is only a quarter a day. I just replaced mine after about a year, and the unit is working a lot more efficiently. I did find that if you run a hand vac over the odor sensor, it works better too.

No, it is not a true hepa filter. I wouldnt recommend it as it was not well made and also mine did not come with the car charger. I returned it.

I change the HEPA filters and the filter about every 2 months. We have 2 cats, 1 dog and tend to also get a lot of dust in the home. I'd recommend taking out the prefilter maybe every other week and just basically shaking it out or slapping it to get the larger dust balls and dander off. But of course it will all depend on just how much dust/dander you tend to have in your home. I purchase the replacement filters here on Amazon as well and they are much cheaper here than at a big box store. I'd absolutely recommend this air purifier though, works great and I've had it for at least 7 months. Hope this helps I change the HEPA filters and the filter about every 2 months.

Yes - the HEPA filter comes with the vacuum. It is a very fine filter; one of my relatives vacuumed out a huge quantity of fireplace ashes with it, which clogged the filter. Rather than buying a new one, I used compressed air outside the house to blow out the extremely fine dust. It works like a dream again. It only clogged once in 2 years, so it doesn't need replacement very often.

Yes, we have that Whirlpool air purifier & we just got a replacement filter a few weeks ago. The Hepa filter that came with it had been in it a year. We change the pre-filter every couple of months. I hope I have been of some help in answering your question.

If your vacuum cleaner is a 31061, then you need the 2 filter pack, which is part # 3204E. I believe you can order this from amazon as well. Good luck, remember that if you are vacuuming a large area, then you need to check the filter every now and then, to see if it is saturated with dust...also,remember that these filters are washable, so after a few times you clean the filter, it would be good to wash it, the filters will last longer that way. Hope this helped.

I love my Roomba! I would prefer to have the new one 800 series because I have long hair and it tangles more than the new one does, but I love it anyway. I have a cat and so we do appreciate the HEPA. I take them out and knock them over the trash can several times before I put in a new one. This machine does keep our unit dust free. I have so much less dusting now than before I got it. I hope this helps with your decision.

Yes it takes a type F9 HEPA filter sold by Amazon and probably wherever vacs are sold

This vacuum comes with a Active Airclean filter and it comes with one extra bag. The bags you will need are style G&N.; HEPA filter cost is about $50.00. Please call 866-972-8227 for further details.

The one I received was the same as the photo image. I've been using it in the vacuum and it has worked well. ***Edited part***: Hello Christopher F. If I am understanding you correctly you wanted to purchase the dust filter and they sent you the HEPA Filter instead. What I can tell you is that I have a Hoover Mod. #UH70120 Vac. and I purchased the dust filter (not the HEPA Filter) that sits on the top of the dust tank from the seller: Vacuum Fix. I had no issues with them or in sending me the correct part. If you were sent the wrong filter contact that seller and have them make things right. If not call Amazon Customer Service and they will assist you in this matter they have been very helpful in the past. Also I learn this a while ago, when buying things try to buy items that are "fulfilled by Amazon" or sold by them directly. This way you have there complete backing on the item being sold. Fulfilled means that Amazon is acting as the middle man between you and the seller. This usually is listed next to by who the item is being sold by. Hope I helped and good luck. Show Less

This unit is designed to work with pre-installed piping that runs through the home. The wall outlets must match the accessory tools. There is no hepa filter, but one is not necessary as the unit exhausts outside. This is much cleaner than a filtered vacuum.

Read my review on the Winix -- I'd pass on that one if I were you. I am not a big HEPA filter fan -- they are EXPENSIVE to replace and once nasty bugs get trapped, well, they can reinfect you. I'd look for something with electrostatic plates you can clean at no added costs.

The honeywell unit I have does not require a hepa filter replacement. It only needs to be vacuumed every six months.

I ordered this filter pack for my Shark EPO33 hand vac, which is no longer manufactured, but I still use mine all the time, and don't want to replace it because that little vac is just so darned handy. The vac in your pic looks very similar to mine, and the replacement filters shown here are working very well. Hope they will for you, too. : )

No. The instruction manual that comes with this vacuum is excellent. I suggest you read it because it explains how to charge it, how to clean it and how to clean the Hepa filter.

According to my online chat with Shark, the replacement filters for the UV420 are XF22 for foam and felt and XHF80 for the HEPA. This looks like the right one for you (and me). I got my vacuum at Costco if that helps.
