Hoover Celebrity III Deluxe - FIlter

[Anthony764]

I just bought a Hoover Celebrity III Deluxe canister "flying saucer" vacuum cleaner off eBay. Although the vacuum runs, has all its parts, and is in clean condition, the foam filter that surrounds the inside of the motor has disintegrated and upon turning the vacuum cleaner on, the exhaust vent blew out bits and pieces of disintegrated black foam.

My question is: what kind of foam can I buy to replace what was there?

Someone who also orders from Essco taught me this it should work being you said it is a celebrity III and the person said use a generic  Bissell style 10 filter BR-1880, I'd say give that a try. I'll have to try that on my celebrity.

I found a Shop Vac filter that worked pretty well too. However, I don't know the part number.

I buy Allergen air duct filters from Home Depot and use those to make vacuum filters. I glued 2 together and cut and shaped them to fit my Celebrity IV QS. Works good here.
