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.

It doesn't come with a bag. It comes with two sets of filter cartridges. The ones that are installed are a fine mesh filter and the others are a more course material. They remove very easily and are very easy to hose out. Sometimes I don't even need to remove them to hose them out.

I think it came with the filters, you might call them as the pricing depends on whether you set up auto ship for filter replacement.

I ended up having the adapter from previous filters and it worked with these. Just recycle them and you will be fine.

The one I recieved four years ago came with the bag. No big deal if it has the bag or not. This is the one and only filter that I would recommend.

I use it for disposables. Works great. So far, I've only found the large, black lawn bags to fit it. I've used it for 4 months so far and have yet to change the filter.

I buy bags for mine they work much better than the filter for fine dust and debris. You can pretty much fill them with no loss of suction.

I emailed the manufacturer at their website. I was told that you can buy the bags from a medical supply company. Also was told that the manufacturer does sell bags, although you do have to pay a flat rate shipping, so maybe best to order 2 or 3 bags. Price quoted for the bags could be considered expensive for such a bag, but significantly cheaper than replacing the whole unit.

It comes with what it needs to operate but I ordered extra filters and bags.

Bag and filter replacement will depend on the user's lifestyle. If you have children and/or pets and you vacuum daily, you will probably need to replace your bag every couple weeks. No kids or pets means replacement at two months.

No, I had to buy replacement bags separately. The machine is powerful, according to my cleaning person, who loves it.--Roberta

It's best to take your old filter with you & compare or look on the side of your vac for the number of your filter replacement. That's where I found what to buy. I learned the hard way that there are many different ones.

The Vacuum cleaner comes with bags, but you will have to buy some replacement ones too. The bags are very easy to change and are not expensive. It is an excellent vacuum cleaner.

Amazon has them. They are called "Waterwise Post Filter Replacement Bags" and are sold in a Six Pack

It comes with all the filters you need. It says they will last for 6 months. Then I believe you will have to order the replacements.
