Does it have washable filters?

Yes. The filters are washable. Bissell promptly replaced the broken handle (which, I think, is still the weakest part of the machine). I am fully satisfied with the way the machine works. It does a great job getting all the hair my excellent, but shed-happy dog, tends to leave wherever he goes. The attachments are also well made and work great.

It comes with a cloth/metal filter that is washable. You can also find, with a little searching, a Cory Glass Filter Rod that works very well with this pot!

yes, it has a filter. Other reviews talk about this. Also, very noisy but really pumps out the mist.

No. It does not come with filter. I clean mine out, let them thoroughly dry and reuse them. No problems.

You can't wash it but you can "dust bust" it or vaccuum it; eventually you will need a new one, but not each time it says "clean filter." The filters last a long time.

The filter that comes with this is washable, and you can buy replacements: BISSELL Replacement Filter for 53Y8 and 94V5, 2 pack, 52H6

No, the Hepa filter is NOT washable but the other one is. I take mine out and vacuum / shake it once in awhile.

Nope. From the vacuum manual: "The filter CANNOT be washed as it will lose its dust trapping ability." It doesn't look like it would survive the washing.

Yes but I would not recommend it. I just vacuum the pre-filter every few weeks and wash it when I wash the main filter.

It comes with a very tiny basket filter that you remove & wash out. It has a plastic housing around the filter.

No. It has a filter basket. If I may add, I believe this to be one of the best perculators I ever used. Hope I helped you in any way. Aloha!

Yes. The filter is washable and removable. The water will not stay as fresh if the filter is not used.

No, this is not washable material. Nor can you vacuum it.If you want to be able to wash the filter use a nylon weave type

All the filters with the exception of the white paper can be washed in a mild soap and water mix. Vacuum the white pleated filter and replace it once performance suffers.

No they make the filters custom to the machine to push sales on that filter the washable filters are no where close these HEPA filters they are pricey but they last quiet a while and they truly make a difference compared to the washable ones.

I have not had to replace the filter. I use a dust pan brush to clean the filter. There apparently is no washable replacement filter available for this particular filter, at least not yet.

Yes the only filtering is the shown holes; I use a paper filter on top to provide a real cleaning.
