Hello All,
Does anyone remember seeing a Hoover Pixie in a retail catalog that had an outer bag that was round (similar to early Regina Electrikbrooms with pleats?

I have a Royal 5000 hand vac that needs a cloth bag with gasket. Do the 501 (even though they're blue in color) shake out bags fit these models, and if so, does anyone know where I can purchase one. Seems like the 501 bags are more pliable than the 5000 bag.

Thanks much in advance.

Yeah, the model 501 bag will fit just fine. For the most part the 5000 and the later 501s are pretty much the same unit from a mechanical stand point. If you want you can also use paper inserts with these vacuums. They are Royal Type H bags. You can get them at places like www.totalvac.com....

Replacement cloth bags were fairly common up until recently. They are hard to find new these days, although its not impossible.
