Does the vacuum come with at least 1 bag? Is the Hepa filter washable? Is there a light that tells you when bag is full?

It came with a bag (you can buy replacements anywhere walmart target etc). There is no indicator light on mine when it is full, you can simply remove the cover and feel the bag. The hepa filter is not washable, but they last a long time and are cheap to replace.

I believe this vacuum cleaner comes with a bag or two however if you have pets I highly recommend you purchase an additional box or two.

This vacuum has a bag which seems to trap lots of dust. The bag lifts in and out from the top and there is a tab that covers the top of the full bag so there is no spray of dust as you remove the full bag. There is a filter under the bag and also a paper HEPA filter on the side of the vacuum. On my vacuum, both of the filters are always totally clean, so I assume that everything is captured in the bag. I also know that there are three bag manufacturers - Eureka (sold at Bed, Bath, and Beyond), 3M Filtrete (sold at Lowes), and Arm and Hammer (sold at Walmart). I've used the Eureka Bags and the 3M Filtrete bags. I'm not sure if the Arm and Hammer bags trap dust as well. This vacuum has a bag which seems to trap lots of dust.

You can wash the filter, but it takes awhile to dry. I bought two HEPA filters for it, so there's a dry one to put in when I (occasionally) wash the other one.

The bag serves as the filter. Another thing to consider. The part of the canister that holds the bag is attached by a twisting motion on the vac. I have had a lot of problems with the canister simply popping open while using the vac. It is a real annoyance. The vac has plenty of power, but with the canister constantly popping apart while in use, I find it practically useless.

The vacuum cleaner has a heavy duty bag that attaches at the bottom and clips at the top. No other bag is needed. The dust and dirt collect in the bag. When full, the bag is fairly easy to detach (I am not a mechanical person and I can do it without instructions, even). I just dump the dust into a garbage bag and reattach the bag. So, you can not use disposable bags inside the cloth bag.

The HEPA filter is washable. I soak it in a small container (or sink) with a squirt of dish washing liquid for 15-20 minutes, swishing occasionally then rinse well doing same method. It must be completely dry (overnight near fan or heat vent) before use. I own two HEPAs so one is always clean and dry. You should clean the HEPA filter about every 3-4 months depending on how frequently you vacuum and how dirty the jobs are.

My wife requested that we go back to a bagged version of sweeper as she found there was a lot more work involved in dumping loose dust that went everywhere, and cleaning filters, sponges, bins etc. On this sweeper the bag is also the filtration unit and you change it when the light comes on. We have had ours about 4 months and so far the bag has not needed changing. This bag is the easiest that I have ever installed (it has a very unique loading mechanism), as well as a air freshener that installs below the bag if you wish. My wife also wanted a light machine as she has trouble with her arthritis, and this unit filled that wish as well. The reason for the light weight as well as the good suction is a new technology of motor that is utilized. The only negative that we have noted so far is that you do not have any attachments that can be used on these units, so you might need to consider that before you purchase it. Hope this helps.

I Got 2 bags and all necessary filters but no extra filters. The hepa filters last a year so it is no big deal

I believe it's a washable filter but I would never recommend this product, it's vacuum is very weak and does not hold much - when I say weak, it does not work on even crumbs really - i should have returned it since I had to buy a replacement for it immediately.

It comes with one bag. I bought replacement bags along with the cleaner for the future. It is a terrific purchase. You wont regret it!

yes it's bagless. It has a filter that is easy to remove and wash. I live on a dirt road and house is quite dusty. I clean the filter and let it dry thoroughly before putting it back in about every sixth vacuuming.

It's bagless vacuum and there is a thick foam-type filter that is washable. It does not need to be changed each time.

Yes and no. The vacuum has two filters. One filter sits behind the vacuum bag and you see it every time that you change the bag. This filter is not a HEPA filter and the MC-V194H filter does not fit. However, the second filter fits in a panel on the top of the vacuum and the MC-V194H filter does fit there. My understanding is that the second filter is considered optional and is there to reduce emissions. The first filter has a warning saying do not run the vacuum without the filter. I have had no success in finding a replacement for the first filter.

There is no bag, the device is bagless. The filter is washable and, if necessary, replaceable. The Dirt Devil 2DT0880000 F39 Filter can be found here: Dirt Devil 2DT0880000 F39 Filter
