Hey y'all! Found this little cutie at the thrift store yesterday, and it seems like it'd be so much better with a pleated filter instead of the cheap foam one. I searched high and low and managed to find a couple, but I want to make sure it's the right one. The model is 410AT-1, and I believe the correct filter is the DCF6. Do any of you happen to have an extra? Thank you!
Pictures are of the correct? Filter, the filter holder for the foam, and the machine itself

Hi,

Sorry to revive an older thread.
Did you find that the DCF-6 is the correct filter for this vacuum?
I'm not a bagless person. But, I just found one of these that was in need of rescuing, and I thought it was too cute to let it get tossed. Plus, my hoard is in need of a couple of Eurekas.
It's in desperate need of a good cleaning, and I'm sure I'll want to replace the filter.

Update:
Assuming the DCF-6 is the correct filter, I've been searching around the interwebs looking for who has them available.
Now, I think I see one of the reasons someone was getting rid of this vacuum.
It looks like the filter is discontinued, and almost impossible to find anywhere.
They seem to show up on eBay occasionally, but pretty pricey for a vacuum that didn't cost anything.[this post was last edited: 11/23/2023-17:07]
