Genuine Panasonic U-6 Bags, Best Price on the Web Jan 03, 2005
By ChurchOfJesusChrist.Net Genuine Panasonic U-6 vacuum bags from Amazon.com, easily the best price on the web, especially with a Super Saver shipping order. I don't know how they make money on these, as these shipped separately from my order from a different location via UPS. The shipping alone must've cost as much as the bags themselves, much less any profit by having the lowest price on the web.
If you have a Panasonic vac which takes U6 bags, it is important to get genuine Panasonic U6 bags, not some knock-off "U" size. The bags are an integral part of the Panasonic cleaning system, and U6's are much thicker than standard bags, offering their increased filtering ability. "U" is just a size, but the "6" (I deduce) refers to its thickness. So a Panasonic U3 bag or a knock-off "U-anything" bag will fit in a U6 vac, but you'll be doing yourself a disservice. U6-type vacs are more powerful; they need to be to pull the air through the bag (just try to blow air through a new one yourself).
There are other 3rd-party Amazon sellers selling the same bags on Amazon, but this is the best place to buy them (super saver qualifier, lowest price).
Another reason buying genuine U6 bags is important is because the "6-layer HEPA air filter" feature of Panasonic vacuums is bogus. I have owned two generations of Panasonic vacs (the newer "darth vader" type plus the more standard-looking one before it), and Panasonic's idea of "HEPA" filtering it laughable at best, and criminal at worst. With my older one, barely any air even passed through the supposed "HEPA filter" (almost all air actually passing through the cord reel hole). With the newer "Darth Vader" model, the filtrete "HEPA" filter cartridge had no real seal, so I had to make one with duct tape, but even then there was no reduction in "vacuum smell" whatsoever from the filter cartridge. What I am saying is that the bag does all the air filtering. I still like Panasonic U6-type vacs because they DO reduce the "vacuum smell" by filtering the air better, but this is ONLY due to the U6 bag and the suction/brushing behind it, NOT having anything to do with the bogus "HEPA" filters supposedly placed in the exhaust flow.
Any 3rd-party bag which displays itself as compatible with U3, even the "anti-allergen" ones, is intrinsically inferior to the genuine Panasonic U6, because the U6 is so much thicker that it can't be used in the (weaker) U3 vacs at all.
So stick with genuine Panasonic Vacuum bags. With these prices, replace your bags early and often; that's the best way to achieve clean air--not from some HEPA filter idea. Keep these in mind when you need a small item to bump you over the free Super Saver shipping minimum purchase.
VACUUM BAGS Oct 24, 2010
By Laurie E. Caroniti

NICE FOLKS TO DEAL WITH, FAST DELIVERY AND EXACTLY WHAT WAS DESCRIBED, I WILL BUY AGAIN, THANKS!! AAA RATING!
dust allowed thru' bag! Feb 17, 2010
By T Kaz I was hoping these bags, being brand name and full size, would work best for my panny vacuum.
But when I go to change the bag I find the inside of the vacuum filthy with lose dust. Even when its been checked to be on the mount tight.
The arm & hammer high filtration bags the big box store carries does a finer job, inside its clean when I open it (vacuum bag cannister).
I wont be buying these again even though theyre larger.
Panasonic vaccum bags Nov 05, 2009
By Pudukkottai K. Subramanian
"The Prof"
These are vaccum bags for our Panasonic cleaner. They were harder to find in regular retail stores. As always Amazon had them and at a reasonable price.
good price - as expected May 01, 2009
By Shahid good quality , does not leave smell after vaccum. Did a clean up of the vacuum also which is necessary once a year atleast to clear the stubborn and hidden pieces of paper/hair/dust in pipes.
