I can not agree more. Bags are cheap and the machines that uses bags will generally outlast those that don't. Seeing the dirt can be a selling factor for the bagless machines, but most don't realize that once the dirt stops swirling the motor is working very hard as the filter is now clogged. Those that use filters are costly. Most filters run on the $40 range and if not washable should be changed probably quarterly depending on the usage and type of dirt. Most companies now offer a high filtration bag with their machines. These bags tend to hold more dirt and yet allow for great air movement. Airway offers a great bag for their machine and now Hoover is using a Filtrete bag that is awesome on some of their models. I personally still like the genuine Electrolux bags. Very little leakage, not great at maintaining airflow, but yet overall a good bag. Plus it seals itself when you take it out and for those that have allergies you see no dirt and touch no dirt.
