Whatever vacuum you use, I recommend using the disposable bags. I put a bag in my 20 gal shop vac and it makes emptying the thing a whole lot nicer. It also prevents fine dusts from man made materials from clogging up the filters.
Doug, I always use the bags in my ShopVac. Here a 3 bag package is about $5.99 and this way the filter lasts forever. I have a 16 gal Craftsman Vac that I used to use before I bought the ShopVac and I needed to use another Vac to clean out the filter which was a dirty job. I wonder if Sears has gone to dustbags in their new models yet.
