Does the bag fit tightly around the vacuum stick so that I will not need the inside plastic piece from the old bag? (Mine is broken.)

The new bag comes with that plastic piece. That plastic piece ( broken) seems to be the main reason most of us have bought a new bag. I've had mine for almost a year and am quite pleased. The only major difference between the two seems to be the "ORECK" name is not printed across the front.

Yep, it didn't fit mine either. It sticks out the top and you can't zip it up, right? Poor engineering! Well, I've used mine anyway. It does fit in the bag which keeps any grease or nastiness away from my other items stored nearby and the tanks fit in the end pockets. By the way, when you take off the connector, leave it in the bag where you can use it later. I've kept it in a separate location twice and then didn't have it when I needed it. Good luck.

nope, it is a double plastic zipper the way you can find in the kitchen bags and a special key to close that zipper. besides, after vacuuming it it is pretty rigid and cannot be tightened anymore.

I am not sure what model my vacuum is but the way I was able to figure out what bag I need was if I had a docking station or not. The vacuums that i have has the docking station, so the cardboard is longer. The coarboard for without a docking station is smaller.

No. But you can leave a small opening when you zip close the bag and put the vacuum hose there to such out the air and close it entirely when you are done.

I saved the attachments and hoses from my last vacuum. It doesn't fit perfectly but it's okay when vacuuming hard to reach areas.

you can find your manual here and look up the bag it takeshttp://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-model/Panasonic-Parts/Vacuum-Parts/Model-MC5155/0789/0645000

I cannot answer this question, because at first I used the vac. quite a lot, and then I put it aside for months. I am using it again, but have not changed the bag yet. To be honest with you, I don't know when I will need to. I am hoping 'it' will let me know somehow. I am very happy with the product.

Yes, the entire black plastic liner pulls out. In fact, one drawback is that there are no holes in the liner which creates a lot of suction on the bag as you try to take it out. You may find yourself pulling out the liner whether you want to or not.

no, I had one come apart and use the hose of my vacuum to suck out the little balls that came out. also I found a new ball that has a ring around the seam to keep it from coming apart. I don't remember where I got it I ordered from more than one vender

No, I bought it since it was recommended to go with the Ziploc bags and it doesn't attach. I don't know what to do with it?? I used my vaccumn cleaner hose instead and it worked great!

No, the vacuum hole on those clothes bags are made for the diameter of a regular vacuum hose. This has a nozzle that is smaller and concave like a suction cup.

I don't know about other vacuums but my Miele canister dusting brush opening is exactly the same size around as the Panasonic wand so it does not fit either at the bottom metal tube or at the top plastic connector. :(

No, but has sturdy seaming along the sides. The cap of the filter has the p,lastic rim which locks onto the vacumn, I have not had any problems with the filter coming loose or collapse when in use. they come 2 in a pack and I clean them after each use. Very happy with the replacement cones as the vacumn is my favorite for cleaning floors before I scrub.

No. It is vacuum packed in a plastic bag you have cut it out of. But it would be nice to have a carry bag or at least strap it closed.

I can certainly understand your concern! When I look at my vac bags, it does say "fits Electrolux tanks." For me that was my major issue as I had great difficulty funding the proper bag. I am not sure about this but if it upsets you this much, you might want to check out Electrolux itself (maybe the company got bought out or something??). Best to you from Boston, Lynn

I think the compete comes with a seperate bag with attachments. Mine has a few pieces on the vacuum itself but then I have another bag with more attachments. To be honest, I don't think I've pulled out the bag of attachments yet to use.
