Hi, all. I bought some Filter-Queen filters from someone on ebay. I tried to look up the companies website but couldn't find anything about it. Are they made by FQ?.....Bill in Az....

The genuine cones will have Health-Mor on the package, others will say "designed to fit".

Question

Thanks, Mark. They say the are cellulose but are they as good as FQ's? If not, I'll use them in my Silver-King.....Bill in Az....

Good question

Hi Bill, The Genuine FQ cones I have are vintage for my model 33,circa 1965,so who knows, the aftermarket cones could be an improvement over the ones I have, Mark

When i bought my used Filter Queen it came with a package of the Envirocare Cellulose filters. They are aftermarket and seem to be just fine, I have never had any genuine filter cones. The Envirocare ones the inside of the cone has always been clean when I change the filters.

I just bought a couple new Filter Queens from ebay, and one of them came with a pack of Envirocare cones. I thought they felt lighter, so I held one next to a genuine under a light. The Envirocare cones let a lot more light through, so I threw them away and will use only the genuine cones. I did that on Tuesday of this week with brand new cones of both brands. That contrast doesn't prove that the others don't work as well as the genuines, but I don't trust them and don't want to find out the hard way with a vacuum as expensive as a Filter Queen.
