I have a question on the Kenmore C/5055 bags. I haven't bought the bags in a few years, but last time I did they had white regular bags and yellow allergen bags that have the extra white layer inside. Those are the ones I was buying and came in a blue Homecare package. My mom usually bought the Rug Doctor bags for hers and I noticed the ones she was buying lately also seem to have the white allergen layer inside, so I figured they are close to the same thing.
But last week she said she can't get the Rug Doctor bags anymore so she went to Sears to get them. I looked at the ones she bought and they are different than what I used to get there. The bags are white, not yellow and say "Kenmore Allergen Filtration" on them. The package is white and pink and says Kenmore "fits both 5055/C/Q" and a whole list of model numbers of Panasonic and Kenmore. So are these the same as the yellow Homecare allergen bags I was buying? I went to Sears website and all it shows are these white bags, so I guess they no longer have the cheap white non-allergen bags? I'm confused. |

Currently Kenmore offers 2 bags styles. The yellow is a paper bag material that is their base standard which is a reasonable allergan standard compared to many other manufacturers baseline bag!!
The white C\Q bag is allerfgan filtration but actually a cloth HEPA bag. They are phenomenal and will leave your vacuum compartments spotless. For a great generic HEPA similar cloth bag that is far cheaper than the Sears Ultracare care line, I recommend you to the green package line by Envirocare. The package number for the Kenmore Q bag is A137, a 3 pack is $2.69 from discount cleaning products vendor below that is a great place to find parts and supplies!
