How can you tell a 7095er26 pet filter from a 7095er04 onyx filter? I supposedly bought a 7095er26, but the packaging just says 7095 on the box and it looks exactly like my original onyx filter. |

I'm sure it will fit onto the cleaner like any Felix filter :) Correct me if I'm wrong though |

As a general rule, if the part looks the same, but has the last numbers of the part number different (especially in this case where they didn't even print the last numbers on the box) it means the part has been redesigned and the last couple numbers reflect that.
Of course, that's only a general rule, I really don't know. |

How much thicker is it? Twice as thick? Would I be able to achieve the same thing by removing the outer fabric of one filter and putting two regular filters together? Or is it a different fabric altogether? |

Thanks for the info. Yes it was a regular filter. I sure wish sebo uk would deliver to the US or the US would stock the F9. From what I can gather is the filter ratings go from a C to an A when the F9 filter is added. |

So the other day I tried buying another F9 filter. Found one on ebay and snapped it up. Asked Sebo UK about the availability of the F9 filter as it's no longer on their site to purchase and it seems it's been discontinued. Shame!
Here's their email:

Thanks for the update. I’m sure the filter could physically last 8-10 years, but after 8 bags mine is ready to be replaced, for sure! |

My felix is nearly 10 years old, I’ve been washing it at 60c in the machine (it’s the royale model with the Union Flag which they don’t do anymore) it comes out perfectly. No damage at all, hasn’t even started fraying.
I asked the question at the time on this forum to see if you can machine wash them. The answer I got was no. Actually turns out it’s totally fine. We aren’t all as expert as we claim obviously lol |

I never thought about washing it. I may give it a try. It can’t hurt if I’m planning on replacing it anyway. |

If you will do that give it every opportunity; wash it by itself, on a 1 hour setting at 60c with a decent amount of detergent
Like I said; mines hasn't fuzzed or anything and it gets rid of all the carbon dust as well. Being 60c, it also will kill off any bacteria as well. Sebo dont recommend it, because it mitigates replacement needs but probably more because its open to user doing 1 of 500 different things wrong and not using any common sense. |
