Bags for Electro Hygiene canister

[countryguy]

A few weeks ago I posted pics of the Royal Electro Hygiene canister that I picked up. It did not come with any extra bags and the bag in the unit is an open topped paper bag. Does anyone know what kind of replacement bags I could use? I'd be open to using a large enough size bag where I could just cut the collar off the bag as long as it would still fit the unit. Also a hepa type bag is preferred but a paper bag would do.

Thanks.

The paper bag for that was a simple bag with a cardboard ring on the top, similar to a Compact bag but larger diameter. VacPartsPlus, the online store for the Henry Company, might have some, or maybe ebay. Jimmy Martin (rugsucker here on Vacuumland) might also have some.

Thanks for the info...that is what I suspected. A bag from a GE swivel top would probably work then. If I wanted to use a cloth hepa type bag, what would I look for? Even a bag with a collar would work as long as the bag is the right size...I could cut the collar off since the bag tops are open in the machine.
