I'm happy using generic FJM bags (from Amazon), 5 for $10!
By Sinclair Cohen
I just love my two Miele cannister vacuums, they're great. We live on all tile floors with 10 dogs and a few cats, so everyday I vacuum up a ton of animal hair, and I go through vacuum bags quite frequently. I'm not paying $19 for four bags, that's ridiculous! I e-mailed Miele, they told me about how much better filtration the new bags afforded. I explained that filtration quality means nothing when cleaning very coarse animal hair. I'm not living in a "clean Room" at Intel!

I noticed that Bosch has also raised their cannister bag prices, so maybe it's a German thing. I started buying generic "FJM" 5 bags for $10 from Amazon, which work just fine. These cheap bags have a cardboard connection at top, instead of plastic, but doesn't matter. So I'm happy now. I'm not paying $5 per Miele bag!

BEWARE OF THIS!
By K. Wysong
Beware of this item. I ordered "8 bags with 4 filters" from Go Vacuum and received 4 bags with 2 filters. The guy at Go Vacuum said Amazon is advertising it wrong and that there have never been 8 bags with 4 filters in this style. Even the box that came has a sticker on it that says "FJM Miele Bags 8 Bags with 4 Filters". It's wrong. The guy at Go Vacuum said I could just "send them back if I didn't like them." Haha.

Wrong Product sent
By L. Kraska
I purchased the Miele bag and they sent me the new Miele Bag called HyClean. The new product includes one less bag and thats why I did not want it. The picture on Amazon was for the old bags.

Update: I called them and explained this to them and they agreed to send me another bag to cover the one short. They have updated their images but it seems it did not flow to Amazon yet. I give them credit for addressing this problem.
