Better than substitute Type W
I've tried other Type W filters. I'd recommend using the genuine Riccar Type W. They are the best for the Riccar Vacuum Cleaner.
Best price found was on Amazon.
Great Bags for a Great Vacuum
I purchased the Riccar "Brilliance" 2 years ago to replace an Oreck that was not satisfying me, in spite of all the advertisements. The Brilliance model uses the "W" size.

I purchased a 6-pack of bags at my vacuum cleaner store for 18.99. Depending upon how often you vacuum and the size of your house, this 6-pack should last a year. These are Hepa bags specifically designed to reduce air-borne allergens. The bags are small: 6" wide by 11" long and are cloth. They are easy to replace in the vacuum.

Another nice feature is a small piece of tape that is attached near the suction hole of each bag. The tape can be secured over the hole when the bag is ready for disposal which I find is a handy feature.

I love my Riccar and these bags may appear to be expensive, but I can tell you that their performance has been great. I have pets and have not seen pet hair as quickly after I vacuum as I did with the Oreck. I highly recommend this vacuum and these bags. In...

expensive, but works very well
Miele cleaner was recommended to us. The wood floor attachment gets into every corner - it's incredible compared to the thing we had. The electric powered carpet head also works very well. Very pleased with the unit.

In trying to decide which model to buy. started at the Miele web site where they list features - such as the electric powered carpet head - included in certain models. However on the web I found different prices for the same model, and it seems that for any one model what different web sites include is not be the same - specifically for the model I bought, Callisto, there were several web sites advertizing that model but in the fine print they said it included the vacuum powered carpet head, not the far superior, and more expensive - electric powered head.

The unit we have is great - just be careful to check what some of the vendors are offering...

1st Time Canister Purchase
I've been married 17 years, this is my fifth vacuum cleaner purchase in that time! I have serious allergies plus a dog, cat and very active 13 year old in my home. My trusty Kenmore Progressive upright was my most recent & by far favorite vacuum purchase. It's ran great for 5+ years. However, the upright was not especially functional in our most recent home which has lots of wood/tile flooring and limited carpet. Plus I couldn't reach my ceilings.

Realized that cleaning would be much easier with a cansiter and set out to do my homework on which one to by. It was obvious with minimal research that a Miele would probably be my best option. And while I expected to pay $400-$600 for a quality vacuum, the prices on the Miele gave me considerable pause. I headed out to Sear's to test drive the Kenmore canisters- I had no complaints about my upright- and definitely preferred their prices. I was horrified by the quality I saw on display there.

Well, bit the...
Excellent vacuum cleaner
Have my Miele for one year now and I am totally satisfied. It has worked without a hitch since the day I took it out of the box. Was the replacement of my former vertical Hoover, which had a strong suction power and was easy to use on floors, but was a pain to use for any other purposes. It was so poorly designed that it was useless for anything else but floor vacuum cleaning (and let me add a word about the poor plastic quality, that broke almost everytime I hit something).

Got my Miele with the SEB 217-3 Direct Connect Powerbrush. Very light and maneuverable powerbrush that has excellent suction power. I use it for carpet as well as tiles. What I like the most about this device is that it does not scatter the dust (like the cat litter on the floor) everywhere, as the powerbrush of my Hoover did. Now, I get no more litter specks on my feet when I clean the cat litter area.

As others said, the vacuum cleaner itself is light, very maneuverable (three 360' rotating...

Use It Around the House, Outdoors, and in the Car
The ADM-4PNHSF is a multi-use vacuum that's so easy to use it takes the "chore" out of "chores." Use it to vacuum carpets, inflate rafts and air mattresses, or dry and detail your car. The ADM-4PNHSF can even clean dusty computers, refrigerators, TVs, and other appliances and electronic equipment.

  • Versatile vacuum and blower capabilities
  • Powerful 4.0 HP motor
  • State-of-the-art electric power nozzle assembly
  • Durable stainless steel and chrome construction
  • 95 inches of water lift


Powerful and cutting-edge, the Professional Canister Vacuum is brought to you by the innovative Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co. View Video Demo.
Stainless Steel Construction for Durability and Performance
In the appliance industry, stainless steel has quickly become the trademark of products that look great and perform professionally. With its sturdy stainless steel and chrome body and stainless steel canister, you know the ADM-4PNHSF will resist wear and tear and will perform like new over the long term.

Backed by a five-year motor warranty, this heavy-duty canister vac will see you through years of cleaning.

Twin-Fan Motor and HEPA Filtration for a Clean, Healthy Home or Car
What's inside is just as impressive as what's on the outside. The ADM-4PNHSF has an industrial-quality, twin-fan motor that cranks out an impressive 4.0 peak horsepower--more power than units that sell for twice the price! And it sucks up dirt and dust the first time, so you don't need to make repeated passes over the area you're cleaning.

Additionally, its four-stage, HEPA-certified air filtration system traps 99.97 percent of all airborne allergens, dust, and animal dander for a clean, germ-free car or home.

This canister vacuum also boasts an electronic power nozzle assembly. The electric hose is equipped with an ergonomically correct pistol-grip and a fingertip power switch for comfortable, easy use.

Additionally, telescoping extension wands make it easy to reach your car's trunk or under the sofa, while a low-profile power head features a dirt-seeking headlight. For added convenience, a toe-touch switch allows the power head to switch smoothly from carpet to bare flooring, and a storage halo cord prevents the cord from obstructing path.

Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co., Inc.: Committed to the American Dream
In December of 1939, Hyman Gulker pawned his pocket watch and gave $50 to his daughter and son-in-law, Pearl and Israel Stern. That was the beginning of Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Company, the family's American Dream.

Before he founded Metro, Israel sold vacuum cleaners door to door. He was such a great salesman, in fact, that the president of the last company he worked for offered him $100 to come back into the fold. To the president's great disappointment, however, Israel's wife had the last word. She said, "Nothing doing. We're on our own now!"

Since the day those fateful words were spoken, the Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co., Inc. has grown from a small retail store in Bronx, NY, that sold and repaired vacuum cleaners into a multidivisional corporation with an ever-expanding range of products.

What's in the Box
ADM-4PNHSF canister vacuum; storage halo cord; seven-inch power conductive flexible hose; four chrome/steel extension wands (two with locks); electric power nozzle; crevice tool; fabric tool; dust brush; floor/wall brush; three disposable bags; and two charcoal foam filters.

With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Powerful, but not (as durable as) your mother's vacuum.
UPDATE: WOULD REDUCE TO 2 STARS. At no charge, the manufacturer sent a replacement cover to correct the broken rivet. The customer service was good. They suggested bending the wheel into place to straighten the Now, however, 17 months after purchase, the electric power nozzle does not turn on. This follows on several weeks of the nozzle turning on and off intermittently. Now I wish I had purchased the vacuum from a physical store with a buyer protection program. My new strategy is to buy cheap vacuums on a buyer protection plan and get the broken parts replaced. This was way too expensive for the grief.

ORIGINAL: I bought this because I was tired of the expensive, plastic vacuums falling apart within the first year of use. While this vacuum is incredibly powerful (indeed it sucks the area rugs right off the floor) it's not the indestructible stainless steel canister vacuum of my childhood. Within the first 4 months a rivet broke loose from the canister, making it impossible...

Not a good vacuum, lacks modern features, sucks - in the wrong way
I bought this vacuum for a few reasons:
1) All the brand name vacuums listed on consumer reports have user reviews that said the vacuums were not that good
2) the user reviews for this vacuum were much higher, albeit fewer people, but I looked at both models too.
3) The reviews of this vacuum made it sound like it was amazing

I am truly wondering if the previous reviewers all worked for the company.

While I will say this IS a good vacuum, it does not live up to the hype and quite frankly lacks some key modern features or has some poor quality aspects
1) The cord just hangs out there with no place to go. You can wrap it around the body but that is a pain in the @$$.
2) The spare attachments hang onto a flimsy plastic carrier that poorly snaps onto the vacuum tube/pole
3) the long pole attachment (not the set that goes to the power nozzle but the other long one for the non powered attachments) does not clip. As you are vacuuming the...
Metropolitan AMD-4PNHSF w/ power nozzle
We just opened the box. It took all of 5 minutes to put it together. First thing I checked was the suction. It was great. Two negatives, no auto cord recoil and the exhaust is loud. It is well built, glides nicely along the floor, comes with all the accessories, including two extra chrome metal wands, has a powerful rug beater and the bare floor nozzle has great bristles. It is light weight so it is easy to carry up the stairs and makes it OK to clean the stairs, although I wish the hose was longer. We have had all types of vacuums, Oreck upright, sharp canister, Hoover canister, shop vacs, etc. After all is said and done, when you get right down to it, you have to use a canister vac if you want to really clean. It allows you to get the dirt and dust in those hard to reach places and an upright is simply not going to cut it. We looked at all the vacs, Electrolux, Dyson, Eureka, Kenmore, Bla, Bla, Bla, Ba Bla. Based on price, performance, ease of use, durability and good old SUCTION!,...

Oreck Commercial COMP9H HEPA Compacto 9 Canister Vacuum, 1.6 HP

The Oreck Commercial COMP9H HEPA Compacto 9 canister vacuum has an 8-foot vacuum hose, a 50-foot power cord, and a 1.6-horsepower, two-stage, two-speed motor. This canister vacuum cleaner is quieter and easier to maneuver than typical upright vacuums, and its head can be used to clean stairs, drapes, and under furniture. A telescopic wand and an eight-foot vacuum hose help facilitate cleaning overhead vents, ceiling fans, and other high places. Two-stage motors have greater vacuuming capability than single-stage motors. The motor also offers two speed options, one for less noise and one for greater airflow and suction. This vacuum cleaner delivers up to 106 cubic feet per minute of air flow and up to 98.4 inches of water lift, which is a measure of suction (the higher the lift, the greater the suction). The vacuum operates at a sound level of 60 decibels. A 50-foot power cord enables it to cover a larger area without changing outlets than vacuum cleaners with shorter cords. This product meets U.S. Department of Energy Standard 3020 for High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, which remove at least 99.97 percent of airborne particles that are 0.3 micrometers or greater in diameter. It has a nine-quart capacity and includes a telescopic wand, a crevice tool, an upholstery tool, two floor tools, and a connector assembly for different cleaning tasks.

Oreck Commercial manufactures a variety of vacuums, floor machines, power sweepers, air purifiers, chemical cleaners, and related accessories. The company, founded in 1963, is headquartered in Plymouth, MA.

very nice vacuum
love the way it glides across my hardwood/tile and low rugs. one thing i liked about this vacuum was the type of rubber wheels it has. they are not the plastic type that will scratch up the hardwood or clunk loudly as i pull across my tile floors. the body of the vacuum cleaner is surrounded by the same type of rubber, giving the vacuum a rubber bumber, so that it doesn't scratch/mar my walls or furniture when i pull it forward. the power suction is supreme! i love to vacuum while the sun shines on the floor and i see all the dust being vacuumed UP, not swirling around the air like my last vacuum. i also like the long hose and the low profile vacuum head made for hardwood floors. the vacuum head gets under every piece of furniture i have, even the side table with 3" clearance and the hose allows me to clean under both couches without having to drag the canister too close and have it be in the way. the hose is so much nicer than pushing and pulling an upright vacuum...

Great suction!
I ordered this because I just had my hardwood floors restored and could no longer use an upright vacuum cleaner on them. This has attachments for both carpets and hard surface floors. The attachment for the carpets lifts my area rugs off the floor! This is a little heavier than I expected and since the suction is so powerful I filled up my bag fairly quickly. It only comes with one bag so make sure you order the replacement bags when you order the vacuum cleaner.With two teenage boys, a dog, two cats and a husband it works wonders! However it did not come with any information and I still have been unable to locate a filter for this vacuum. It didn't even come with a 1-800 # so when I called oreck.com's # they said they were not authorized to sell this product. Hopefully I will be able to find a filter soon.

Wonderful product. Lightweight and has an exceptionally long cord which enables you to reach great distances. Would highly recommend this product.

You can never have too many vacuum cleaner bags
I jumped on the "green" bagless band wagon and was sorely disappointed. So I went back to the good old reliable bag. No more having to put on a chem suit to empty the canister then waste water to clean it ever time. With the bag, it's just R&R.

HOOVER HEPA BAGS 4010808S BEST BAGS
I have tried both types of bags for my Hoover Anniversary Canister Vac and for a small price diffrence the # 4010808S HEPA bags are so much better than the Allergen bags # 4010100S. I have wall to wall carpeting and 2 indoor Maine Coon Cats. I vaccume twice a week . I bought both types of bags to compare them and the Hepa bags are much better. You can tell the vaccume works better with this bag. Shop around , I found them on Amazon today for 3.00 each , free shipping !
Pretty Good... Pretty Pricey
I first learned about these special Hoover Type S Hepa Filter Bags when I recently replaced by five-year-old Hoover canister vacuum with a new Hoovers Centennial WindTunnel. I purposely chose the Hoover Centennial WindTunnel because I had previously stocked-up on four 10-packs of regular Hoovers Type S Bags, and the new model accepts the same Type S size.

I tried both the old green Type S bags as well as the included two new Hepa Filter Type S bags in my new vacuum, and the Hepa bags seem to do a better job of catching all of the dust than the green bags.

So I shopped around for some Hepa bags and purchased a few from amazon.com.

I'll still use the old Type S green bags, but I look forward to transitioning to the Hepa bags once the old Type S's are used up.

My only concern is the price of the Hepa bags, which at about $3.50 each are more than three times more expensive than my old green regular Type S bags. I hope they're worth the price...

Needless to say, I was thrilled when I found these genuine Riccar Type H Hepa Filtration Vacuum Cleaner Bags (6 pack). I ordered I believe, six boxes of them incase I have a hard time finding them the next time I need them. I should be set for three or more years.

Finally, A Real "Old School", Vacuum Cleaner!
The vast majority of vacuums on the market today are poor substitutes for the "old school" models that gained fame in the 1950's and 60's. Mostly Plastic, cheaply made, and never doing the job good enough, most vacuums today do just enough to get by. This unit by Metropolitan not only pays homage to those legendary cannister vacs of the 1950's, but it actually cleans like them! This vac actually is powerful enough, to suck up, anything it touches, so it not only picks up the deepest dirt, and dust, but if you're not careful, it'll also devour socks, coins, paper, and other small items! This is the type of concentrated, sustained, sucking power, lacking in most contemporary units. With it's mulitiple filtration, quiet operation, and lightweight, this vacuum is a joy to operate. The need to buy filters and bags may be construed as a negative, but in reality, it's a reasonable trade-off, for the true "old school" cleaning power, this unit delivers.

Pleased customer!
This is by far the best vacuum I have owned, and I've had several Hoovers, an Electrolux and most recently an Oreck. This machine actually picks up dog hair! It's so nice to feel like you're really cleaning the floors, not simply running over them. I'd buy it again!
metro vad adm-4sf 11.25 amp 4 HP canister vac
This is the best vacuum I have ever used! Don't be stupid like me and get just the basic model, though...make sure you get the power nozzle!!! I have two cats and a German shepherd...don't know what I was thinking. This vac is so powerful and amazingly lightweight. If you live in a house that is shaped like a rocket like I do...all stairs and no depth... you need this vacuum. I think it does a better job than my daughter's Dyson and the lightweight feature is the whip! I'm only 5' tall and find it nearly impossible to drag that heavy-butt upright up and down all these stairs, but the metro vac is totally portable and easy to use. Comes with an arsenal of attachments. I guess the only disadvantage is the fact that now I have to buy bags again instead of the dirtcup, but now no dust escapes when I empty it like it did with the big upright. Also, mine, at least, did not come with explicit instructionsregarding what was what, but it is not rocket science. Plus, they have an...

Kenmore Bagless HEPA
My daughter already has this Bagless Hepa Vacuum and has been tremendously satisfied with it. I have just moved in my new apartment and I have decide to order it. It has very nice design and look, easy to clean and efficient. There is reconstruction going on at the building where I moved in and the dust from outside entered inside two rooms today. I had a chance to use my new cleaner and I am really VERY pleased.

good for hard floors
Has good suction. Could have a bigger brush attachment and longer cord, but then it would be bigger yet. Easy to clean
Great deal
I bought this as "new other"and it`s a great deal. It has great suction. Quiet. Cord rewind. Long cord. Pet hair no problem The only thing it`s a little small and has to be dumped on bigger jobs more often. It has an adjustable wand. About 99% of ALL products have good and bad reviews if enough are sold. More sales means more GOOD AND BAD. Refrigerators,TV`S,washers and a/c have changed and are more prone to go down the tubes. China and cheap go hand in hand.

Seems Like The Right Filter For The Job!
I was in need of "a" new filter for our Sears/Kenmore vacuum. After some web searching, I found that this filter (Sears 86889) could cost between $4.25-$19.99 per filter. After reading some reviews and looking at the filters, I chose to go with the least expensive ones from Kill Dirt for $4.25 each (I bought 10 filters). When they arrived, the filters looked like the originals that came with the vacuum. The price was right - they fit like thay had eyes - and they came to my door in 4 (four) working days! If these don't work out (I can't see why they won't) I'll write another review. But as of today - save your money and go with these! Amazon.com has always been a good place to buy the right things for the right application.

Update: December 28,2011
I'm still using these filters. I change them when they need changed. They're are working out great. They fit and they filter the exhaust air very well. Will buy these again when I run out.

hepa filter
Delivered when promised, fit perfectly. It's not the 3m brand sold by Sears, but the price is right!
Fits just like the one from Sears
Not really much to say except the filter fits and works just like the one that came with the vacuum cleaners... but costs a lot less.

Oreck Commercial COMP9H HEPA Compacto 9 Canister Vacuum, 1.6 HP

The Oreck Commercial COMP9H HEPA Compacto 9 canister vacuum has an 8-foot vacuum hose, a 50-foot power cord, and a 1.6-horsepower, two-stage, two-speed motor. This canister vacuum cleaner is quieter and easier to maneuver than typical upright vacuums, and its head can be used to clean stairs, drapes, and under furniture. A telescopic wand and an eight-foot vacuum hose help facilitate cleaning overhead vents, ceiling fans, and other high places. Two-stage motors have greater vacuuming capability than single-stage motors. The motor also offers two speed options, one for less noise and one for greater airflow and suction. This vacuum cleaner delivers up to 106 cubic feet per minute of air flow and up to 98.4 inches of water lift, which is a measure of suction (the higher the lift, the greater the suction). The vacuum operates at a sound level of 60 decibels. A 50-foot power cord enables it to cover a larger area without changing outlets than vacuum cleaners with shorter cords. This product meets U.S. Department of Energy Standard 3020 for High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, which remove at least 99.97 percent of airborne particles that are 0.3 micrometers or greater in diameter. It has a nine-quart capacity and includes a telescopic wand, a crevice tool, an upholstery tool, two floor tools, and a connector assembly for different cleaning tasks.

Oreck Commercial manufactures a variety of vacuums, floor machines, power sweepers, air purifiers, chemical cleaners, and related accessories. The company, founded in 1963, is headquartered in Plymouth, MA.

very nice vacuum
love the way it glides across my hardwood/tile and low rugs. one thing i liked about this vacuum was the type of rubber wheels it has. they are not the plastic type that will scratch up the hardwood or clunk loudly as i pull across my tile floors. the body of the vacuum cleaner is surrounded by the same type of rubber, giving the vacuum a rubber bumber, so that it doesn't scratch/mar my walls or furniture when i pull it forward. the power suction is supreme! i love to vacuum while the sun shines on the floor and i see all the dust being vacuumed UP, not swirling around the air like my last vacuum. i also like the long hose and the low profile vacuum head made for hardwood floors. the vacuum head gets under every piece of furniture i have, even the side table with 3" clearance and the hose allows me to clean under both couches without having to drag the canister too close and have it be in the way. the hose is so much nicer than pushing and pulling an upright vacuum...

Great suction!
I ordered this because I just had my hardwood floors restored and could no longer use an upright vacuum cleaner on them. This has attachments for both carpets and hard surface floors. The attachment for the carpets lifts my area rugs off the floor! This is a little heavier than I expected and since the suction is so powerful I filled up my bag fairly quickly. It only comes with one bag so make sure you order the replacement bags when you order the vacuum cleaner.With two teenage boys, a dog, two cats and a husband it works wonders! However it did not come with any information and I still have been unable to locate a filter for this vacuum. It didn't even come with a 1-800 # so when I called oreck.com's # they said they were not authorized to sell this product. Hopefully I will be able to find a filter soon.
Oreck Compacto canister vacuum
Wonderful product. Lightweight and has an exceptionally long cord which enables you to reach great distances. Would highly recommend this product.

expensive, but works very well
Miele cleaner was recommended to us. The wood floor attachment gets into every corner - it's incredible compared to the thing we had. The electric powered carpet head also works very well. Very pleased with the unit.

In trying to decide which model to buy. started at the Miele web site where they list features - such as the electric powered carpet head - included in certain models. However on the web I found different prices for the same model, and it seems that for any one model what different web sites include is not be the same - specifically for the model I bought, Callisto, there were several web sites advertizing that model but in the fine print they said it included the vacuum powered carpet head, not the far superior, and more expensive - electric powered head.

The unit we have is great - just be careful to check what some of the vendors are offering...

1st Time Canister Purchase
I've been married 17 years, this is my fifth vacuum cleaner purchase in that time! I have serious allergies plus a dog, cat and very active 13 year old in my home. My trusty Kenmore Progressive upright was my most recent & by far favorite vacuum purchase. It's ran great for 5+ years. However, the upright was not especially functional in our most recent home which has lots of wood/tile flooring and limited carpet. Plus I couldn't reach my ceilings.

Realized that cleaning would be much easier with a cansiter and set out to do my homework on which one to by. It was obvious with minimal research that a Miele would probably be my best option. And while I expected to pay $400-$600 for a quality vacuum, the prices on the Miele gave me considerable pause. I headed out to Sear's to test drive the Kenmore canisters- I had no complaints about my upright- and definitely preferred their prices. I was horrified by the quality I saw on display there.

Well, bit the...
Excellent vacuum cleaner
Have my Miele for one year now and I am totally satisfied. It has worked without a hitch since the day I took it out of the box. Was the replacement of my former vertical Hoover, which had a strong suction power and was easy to use on floors, but was a pain to use for any other purposes. It was so poorly designed that it was useless for anything else but floor vacuum cleaning (and let me add a word about the poor plastic quality, that broke almost everytime I hit something).

Got my Miele with the SEB 217-3 Direct Connect Powerbrush. Very light and maneuverable powerbrush that has excellent suction power. I use it for carpet as well as tiles. What I like the most about this device is that it does not scatter the dust (like the cat litter on the floor) everywhere, as the powerbrush of my Hoover did. Now, I get no more litter specks on my feet when I clean the cat litter area.

As others said, the vacuum cleaner itself is light, very maneuverable (three 360' rotating...
