Neither this product can be washed nor can it be used in a wet or dry "It just broke down after using it for a few minutes, like all the cheaper ones. ". It is not a washable filter, so I am not sure what you are paying for. Can we see how concerned the company is about its support?.
Please see below our response to the one-page proposal There were many stars in reviews written by reviewers that received aftermarket filters. The fact that they heard what they said makes no doubt in my mind, nor have I any explanation for why that is. However, I just received mine today (11-- ) and it is a genuine Ridgid box with an OEM filter.
Filters like this are manufactured by Ridgid and replace the white, single-layer filters that come with the vacuum cleaner. Almost nothing can get past it, fitting like a glove. I believe that it is worth the extra cost, especially when you clean concrete dust or do drywall.
Filter manufactured by the OEM. Filter "fine" works consistently well and is a general filter that can be used for most applications. If I use it in a furnished area of the house, I don't have to worry about excessive dust. There is a fine filter in this unit by default, and this version works better indoors due to a softer filter.
I don't have a single With the three-layer filter that comes with your shop vac, you can only remove particles larger than 10 microns. There is a large amount of sawdust that you produce that is smaller than ALL the most dangerous for your lungs. Your shop vac is spraying fine dust into the air when you connect it up to the table saw or sander. Make your life much easier by converting it to this. It's a small price to pay for a great difference. /nbsp*Buy bags for your shop vac too. You will save yourself the trouble of clogging the filter and saving yourself a lot of time by purchasing these 5 dollar filters. It's not the time to pinch pennies. When you accomplish these two things, you will finally have a vac that can compete with a certain German-made vacuum cleaner I use both (engineered dust extractor costs several times more).
The size is much This unit has the same model number as the previous unit, but is not the same size for fine dust. I ordered one that is much smaller and had a thinner paper filler than the one I ordered from home depot. The box does not contain any indication that it is different from other boxes. Does not seem worth the money. Says Ridgid, but I am wondering if it is pirated merchandise.
Everything fit as written. The price was high, but it was worth it. The only thing I disliked about this filter was the price. There were no price differences between sites, but the price point for a vacuum filter seems to be a bit more affordable than for a normal filter. There are many owners who will pass on purchasing this vacuum because it lacks the needed service. In the end, they will be stuck disposing of an early retirement unit that no longer functions effectively.
It can be seen on the Cleaning up was a breeze with the 5000 I will use it regardless of the project regardless of how well it works.
