Questions & Answers
These appear to be genuine Nutone VX3916 (6 gallon) bags, but I can not say for sure. They have the same label as the Nutone authorized dealer I purchased them from. With the exception of a slight color variation, the construction, fit, and materials are all identical. I've had no issues so far, and I'm on bag number three of three.

It is a good match. But, just in case you didn't know, A Nutone VX550 is one of the vacuum cleaners that I own. These bags work fine, but keep in mind that they are the smaller size (6 gallon vs. 12 gallon). Bags are made from a different bag media than other "OEM" bags (e. g. , 8 gallon).
1. Up to 8 gallon bags can be accepted by the VX550. The 8 gallon bags are placed in the bag compartment's bottom. The six-gallon bags are hung from the ceiling.
2. Some OEM bags are made of fabric rather than leather. This bag is made out of paper.
3. Because these bags are smaller, I'm curious if the vacuum can handle the same amount of air (larger bag surface area = less air restriction).
4. Is the bag's filter media of the same quality as OEM? On the outside of the vacuum unit, I've already noticed a fine dust collection. (There is no exhaust to the outside of our unit. ) Is the price for three bags reasonable? Maybe. Despite the fact that I'll most likely have to replace these bags at 3-month intervals, a period of 5 months vs. a period of 12 months With the bigger ones, it will take a year. If everything else is equal, OEM bags cost $40-$50. A three-pack costs $55. It is entirely up to you.
These bags were ordered because they didn't say "generic," so I assumed they were genuine OEM. The bags that came with the Nutone unit, which they were supposed to replace, are made of a dense, strong, and well-made material. These are basically paper-thin bags that aren't even close to the original bags in terms of quality. I would not have ordered them if the word "generic" appeared anywhere in the description.
good.
The quantity of bags is not specified in the add-on line. I expected one, but was pleasantly surprised to find three! Thank you so much.
I can't comment on the quality because I haven't yet ripped it. However, I require it to collect dust and debris, so it must suffice.
When the bag was unfolded and placed in the vacuum, the cardboard collar separated from the bag. It's a bag, to be sure. It'll most likely fit in the vacuum cleaner. They are not someone I would recommend to anyone.
The quality is poor. These aren't the same bags you'd get from the manufacturer. They aren't labeled as such, and the paper is much thinner than that of a genuine bag. They are unlikely to last as long as the original bags.
