Does this definitely ship with a HEPA filter? Conflicting info on Amazon product page.

Yes it does. This vacuum is fantastic. Had mine 6 months so far and I'm still blown away by it.

MY BAD ... The pictures show "a filter" being washed, with caption "Rinsable filter and high-quality HEPA filter." I'm not sure but that might mean there are TWO filters, one that is washable and one that is HEPA? I can see why there is confusion on this issue!

Yes, the HEPA filter is replaceable. In fact, Amazon carries several filters for prices ranging from about $7.00 to under $20.00.

I cannot verify that it is a HEPA filter, or meets requirements to be called a HEPA filter. I believe the actual HEPA filter is the one on the left side of the vacuum cleaner - it is round, flat, and the door to the filter is marked "lifetime HEPA filter". This filter in particular goes inside the vacuum cleaner, and does what I need it to do to get the job done - just what I was looking for. The only thing that made this filter different than the actual Hoover brand was it was a bit taller so I had to push down to get the filter locked inside...no biggie.

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

When I ordered from Amazon, I did not get the hepa marked Hoover bags. Only when I ordered from Hoover itself did I get the hepa marked Hoover bags, free shipping too. Judy; August 18, 2013.

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

The one that says air clean on it is the exhaust filter. Below are links to YouTube videos showing filter change. One mistake on the first video. The narrator says it is a hepa filter.It is not the hepa filter. It is just an air clean filter that comes in the box with the dust bags. You have to buy the hepa filters separately if you want to use them. The hepa filter or the air clean filter, it's your choice which one you want to use. It's one or the other, but not both at the same time. If you are going to use a hepa filter it goes in the same place as the air clean filter. You have to remove the plastic grill that holds the air clean filter in place and then just snap in the hepa filter. The third YouTube video shows a hepa filter change. If you can't click on the links, just copy and paste one of them at a time in your address bar at the top of your screen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c-7Qw3nHNg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veh_VPOVsDw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k9Mkqy48cE

Mine did come with both the gold filter and a box of paper filters. I purchased it from "Willoughby's," however. I don't know what amazon & other outlets will include.

These are not true HEPA filters; they are HEPA-type filters. True HEPA filters are available at http://www.amazon.com/Holmes-HAPF30D-Replacement-HEPA-Filter/dp/B0045LQCIO.

Vacuum comes with one bag attached, as you can not close the vacuum without bag. I do not know about hepa filter being washable. It does not have bag full sensor.

Hello it is a true HEPA air purifier It works very well. it dose has an Ionizers but I never use it as the filter is more than good enough for me I use MERV11 From Filters First Half the cost of Hunter and the 4 ft cut to size charcoal 2 pack pre filters from them to. I'm quite happy with it and I feel much better now that I'm using it most of the time I keep it on low Hope this helps John

It comes with one aer1 'HEPA-type' Total air filter. Label claims it removes '99% of air pollutants.' There are three other types of filters available, based on what your main air-quality concerns are; smoke, odor, allergies, etc...

No, the unit doesn't have a filter. I have been thinking of getting some hepa filter paper and putting it on the fan outlet for better cleaning actually.
