Jyan: First off, I haven't actually vacuumed with it, but it seems to be of decent build quality, and it includes the plastic retainer with the filter, so you don't have to reuse the original retainer if you so chose, and the price is fair compared to most other shopvac filters, esp. those rated for fine particlaes like drywall dust.

Mainly though, this thing fits without an issue on the Craftsman CMXEVCVVJC809 model 8-gal/30l Shop-Vac which I, and many other Canucks, picked up at Lowes (or Rona, or Canadian Tire, etc.) Finding filters which fit that model out of the box is bizarrely difficult (the ShopVac 90304 filter is close, but it lacks the raised "lip" of the stock filter and needs some DIY modding to work with the stock retainer, ,which helps seal out excessive dust from entering the motor.) This filter also apparently fits some Wal*Mart US brand shopvacs too.

Here's hoping on a constant supply line for these things to keep my shopvac running for the foreseeable future!

Carmen: It appears to be an OE replacement for my Craftsman vacuum.
Perfect fit and finish.

AK: This is the right filter for the 12 Gallon 5.5HP Beast Vac. Model VJH1211PF. Perfect fit but overpriced.

Eli: Fits my vacuum perfectly (VBV1210), and also comes with the holder that attaches the filter to the vacuum.
I used this filter to vacuum sawdust from refinishing a hardwood floor (from 36 grit to 120 grit sand paper, resulting in up to flour like sanding dust), as well as to vacuum drywall dust from a basement finishing project (admittedly after sweeping most of the dust first).
In both cases the filter worked wonderfully well, with no dust being ejected again from the vacuum.
After some vacuuming, the filter got completely clogged by the fine dust and greatly reduced vacuuming efficiency. Clearing the vacuum and then vigorously thumping the filter on the side of the trash can removed all of the caked dust and got the vacuum running perfectly again, without any loss in filtration efficiency. I cleaned it like this twice during the hardwood refinishing, once after the drywall sanding, and after finishing either job.
