Also Fits Panasonic Upright Vacuums taking a HEPA filter
Captures 99.7% of all Allergens down to .3 microns
A Must Have For Allergy Suffers And Homes With Asthmatics
Editorial Review:
This filter is designed to fit Kenmore uprights using a HEPA filter (86889). Kenmore uprights are actually manufactured by Panasonic for Sears, so this filter will fit all Panasonic uprights using a HEPA filter also. This HEPA filter is imperative for homes with allergies are breathing issues. The acronym HEPA stands for "High Efficiency Particulate Air". These advanced filters are a very important upgrade on today's vacuum cleaners, as they force air through microscopic screens, capturing even the smallest of particles such as dust mites, pollen, animal dander, and even most bacteria. After 1 year of usage (average homes, more sensitive homes should replace more often the once a year) these microscopic screens become blocked with the particles, which forces your vacuum's motor to work harder and harder to force the air through the filter. The more often you replace these filters, the longer the vacuum will last. The filter measures; 6"L x 3.85"W x .5"H.

Identical to what shipped with my Kenmore:
As the the title says, these filters are absolutely identical to the filter that shipped with my Kenmore vacuum, down to the numbers printed on the side.
great delivery, secure packaging:
These folks were easy to deal with. The information about the product was detailed, and the steps to purchase went smoothly. I'll buy from them again.
Best Deal?:
Pay $34.34 (includes 3 filters & shipping) that comes out to be $11.45 per filter. This is the same product if you were to go to Sears and I saved 8.25% on the Los Angeles sales tax. Unless someone else finds a better deal, I'm sticking to this one.

I just purchased this filter, brand new, in Sears today for $13.99 for one.
