I posted a query re the hepa rating - thanks to all for your answers. I also got a useful and honest answer from the Henry people (which just makes me like this company even more!) They say: "The HEPA flo bags are a brand name made of a blown polypropylene, manufactured for Numatic. This is only a brand name of the bag, they are not HEPA rated." The chart they enclosed showed that these bags have a 75% efficiency with 0.2 micron particles and 78% with 0.3 micron particles. By way of comparison, FFP2 (N95) masks would have 95% filtration score at 0.3 sized particles, 2 layer paper bags manage about 15% (oops) and true 'HEPA' rating demands stopping 99.95% of 0.3 size particles. Coronovirus is even smaller!

Eventually they are full of rubbish, but rubbish they are not.Like most people I have a supreme fondness for hoover bags and in particular Henry Hoover bags. Like most people I have a collection and I can remember where and when I bought my first ever Henry Hoover bag. I am not well into my dotage but the Henry Hoover bags are a constant and faithful companion.The best thing about these bags is that they rip easily when you realise you have hoovered up your jelly babies by mistake. Cut open the bag and then dive in ... the jelly babies are lying in a lovely next of grey fluff and you can find them easily.The bags fit snugly and they fit onto Henry very well too. There is a sign that says "this way up",

I brought these for my nilfisk eco 300 commercial tub VAC which I'm using a henry adapter and I used these bags many times they are brilliant first they are very good at filtering out the fine dust out of the air good for allergy sufferers second they never loose suction as they fill up where paper bags do third they keep the filter clean for longer as all the dust particles are retained in the bag and not in the filter which is a bonus the dust retention is 99.97 % 3 stage filtration fourth u can pick up sharp objects like glass or nails which would destroy paper bags five they last ten times longer then paper bags had the same bag in my machine for nine months.

I used to use the Numatic paper bags, but these woven fabric bags are a significant step up, and so much better. They filter out a great deal more dust, meaning the air that comes out the back of my Henry is cleaner, and kinder to my lungs. I don't have to vacuum again so soon either. The addition of a plastic flap, to seal the shut after removal is brilliant.Another benefit of using these is that unlike paper sacks, it's impossible to accidentally rip them whilst removing a full one from the machine. I used to do that now and again and it drove me nuts with the mess and inconvenience.Fake versions of these are quite common unfortunately, and they don't have the same high level of performance.

I have both a Henry and a Hetty in use in my house and use these bags instead of the paper bags in both. Henry, bless him has come with us through a few house renovations now, eating up rubble, plaster, nails and anything else we throw at him without a blockage or a grumble. Hetty is with us for the finer things in life, she only has to do normal housework but we do end up with extra dust with the work on the house continuingThese bags trap everything including the dust and they don't split when you fill them with rubble and nails. They also have a handy closer so when you take the bag off to throw away, you just close the hole so the dust doesn't fly everywhere.

I ordered these months ago and am on my last one! I have a Hetty vacuum cleaner and was looking for the Henry/Hetty numatic bags and couldn't seem to find them anywhere! I saw these and what a price! Ok, as some have said, they aren't the genuine thing, which is why they are cheap! And yes, they don't come in a box - but why do you want them in a box???? Quit moaning people, they are dust bags, what more do you want??? They only get taken out of the box anyway! They stand up to the job, they DON'T split, as one reviewer said, they are fab and big, NOT small as another person commented! I don't care if they are not the genuine bags, they work, they do the job just like any other dust-bag and they are cheap!

Turns out it was the same look he always has. I'm starting to think Henry might be a bit aloof or simple. Or just a vacuum cleaner.Anyhoo, bags are good, sturdy and don't shed much dust as they are a sturdy cloth HEPA filter material. Fit really easy onto the inner connection and remove the same. There is a plastic fold over fitting so when you remove the bag you can semi seal it to avoid spilling the contents in your house before reaching the wheelie bin outside.I say 'semi seal' as it will not prevent the contents coming out in a massive grey cloud if you fall down the stairs carrying a full bag and land on it like my wife did.Honestly, she looked like the genie appearing in an Aladdin pantomime.

A few months ago, we ran out of HepaFlo bags and ordered some that we thought were genuine from a supplier via Amazon. They turned up and they were simply paper bags, with a lot less air flow and much worse filtering.We went back to look at the item and the description had changed, but there were several bad reviews by people who had believed they had ordered real Numatic bags.These however are the real thing - and only £1 more than the clone bags! The filtering is better, the flow is better, they can be used for longer, the seal between the bag and pipe is better, they have the little sealing flap for when you remove the bag. Much much better for about 10p extra per bag! Go on,

To add to some of the other comments here - the bags were bought from the Amazon seller Discount Direct; these are the genuine Numatic Hepa-Flo bag (NVM-1CH) with the plastic cap that is used to seal the bag prior to disposal. When we first got our Henry vacuum we couldn't get the genuine dust bag locally and so, while waiting for the correct ones to arrive by post, we bought some Tesco own brand ones - big mistake. Like a lot of Tesco own brand made-in-China stuff they were rubbish. They hold less than the Numatic bag, are made of paper and don't have the sealing cap. Plus two of their 5 packs is only just slightly cheaper than these proper Numatic 10 pack bags.

I am really pleased with this product. My Hetty came with 5 of these bags and I was amazed at how well they work. I use Henrys at several of my jobs and although the bags are OK, they are dusty and I find I change them well before they need to be, because of the smell,the dust and the lack of suction. I was so pleased with these bags, they last longer, there's no dust when you empty the hoover and the smell is non existant - I say this as the owner of 4 cats and a house rabbit! I bought this product when I used up my free bags and have bought them for work aswell. They are very good value and do a very good job! I'll definately be buying them again.

Best bags in the world ever! Not being a fan of the bagless cyclone type vacuum cleaners I opted for the "Henry" which in my opinion for it's cost (approx £100) is exceptionally hard to beat. Along with the Henry I purchased these HEPA bags. Amazing... no loss of suction and they hold a large amount of dust. What amazes me about these bags is when I open my vacuum cleaner it is pristine inside... not a sign that it has ever been used... but the bag is full of dust. This means my filters are also immaculate and will last much longer and no dust is getting into the motor area. I will certainly be buying these bags in future.. Cyclone cleaning Pah!

Having said great product at a great price, there's not a lot more to add. The bags are really big, and strong enough to hold the weight of the large amount of dust/dirt it can hold. The price is excellent. They are identical to the 3 free ones that came with the new Henry and they last ages 'cos there are so big. I had to compromise on a smaller, lighter, generic and more expensive bag until I saw these ones. I have a dirty house with 2 long-haired indoor dogs, and with the cheapie small ones had to change the bag every 2-3 weeks.These last so long it's like having a bagless machine. Highly recommended to all Henry owners.

Good value compared to other vendors. I contacted Numatic who confirmed there was no glass fibre in the material. I used them as filters or as the actual material for face masks. They're not the easiest to breathe through, so would need a good seal around the face to make sure you had no leaks. But I've washed them a few times and the fabric holds up well. You can melt the edges to stop fraying on a low iron setting, but that takes some practice. Easy to stitch through. If you hem and stitch them I doubt you'll need to melt the edges. An even lower setting allows you to iron in creases.

I bought these as I found the cheaper bags don't really last long and fill up very quickly.They are no good if they become loose though, and they've done so on more than one occasion, so you need to make sure you place the bag securely or you'll end up with one hell of a mess. The outside of the bag can end up becoming as dirty as the inside when that happens the hoover's insides can get messy so you'll need to clean it and you'll probably need a new filter to boot (which are quite expensive at £7!). Luckily, Henry's very straightforward and could be easily cleaned in a sink if needed.

The item arrived boxed and the bags were exactly the same quality as the one which I removed which came with the hoover. No problems with this item at all. Arrived well packaged and in good time. I'd read a few negative reviews and was not sure about whether to order as a result but I took a gamble and didn't know what all the fuss was about when they arrived. The bags are strong and slightly larger than the bag that came with our machine but still fits fine in there. Ten out of ten. At the end of the day they are hoover bags after all you're not going to wear them over your shoulder!
