Micro Filtration Paper Bags...

Product details
Three micro-filtration paper bags in a pack, sized for the Walmart GE-1 upright. It is a common collar, so the same bag crosses to a spread of Eureka and GE upright machines, and it replaces OEM number 62423 — worth knowing if that is the number written on the last empty box in the cupboard.
- Fits: the Walmart GE-1 upright, plus many Eureka and GE upright models
- Pack: three bags
- Media: micro filtration paper
- Cross-reference: OEM 62423
- Fitting: slide the collar onto the inlet spout and shut the door
- Order as: SKU 155
A bag that has filled or split costs you suction straight away, and the fine dust it had been holding starts finding its way back out through the exhaust. The tell is a machine that sounds higher-pitched and busier than usual while leaving grit behind on the carpet, or a smell that appears when the vacuum is switched on. Dropping in a fresh bag opens the airflow path again and puts the filtration back where it belongs.
Two-thirds full is the moment to change one, not the day the machine finally stops picking anything up. Running a bag to bursting also risks dust getting past the collar and into the motor, which is a far more expensive problem than a paper bag.
Keeping a spare pack in the cupboard is the difference between changing a bag when it needs it and running one for another fortnight because the alternative is a trip out. Three is enough for most homes to cover a couple of months of ordinary use, and more than that if the machine only comes out at weekends.
Searches for GE-1 vacuum bags, Walmart upright paper bags or 62423 replacement bags all end here. Compare the collar shape and the size of the cardboard mount against your machine before ordering, since Eureka and GE used several patterns over the years.
