Overview
This is a Miele Allergy XL pack containing 8 genuine HyClean Air GN vacuum bags, 2 motor protection filters and 1 HEPA AirClean SF-HA 50 exhaust filter. The GN bags fit Miele Complete C2 and Complete C3 canister vacuums and replace the earlier AirClean GN bags.
Bag type, not vacuum brand, decides fit. GN is the size Miele uses in its full size Complete C2 and C3 canisters, and a machine that takes a different type such as FJM will not accept these. HyClean Air is the newer, slimmer generation of the GN bag, with a claimed 10 times higher dust retention than the AirClean GN it supersedes.
- 8 HyClean Air GN bags per pack
- 2 motor protection filters included
- 1 HEPA AirClean SF-HA 50 exhaust filter
- Stated 10x dust retention over AirClean GN
Who it's for
For Complete C2 or C3 owners, especially allergy households, who want to restock bags and refresh both filter stages in one purchase. Owners of Miele compact or upright machines should confirm their bag code first, since GN will not fit every Miele.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Correct GN bags for Complete C2 and C3
- Includes both motor protection and HEPA filters
- Self-sealing collar contains dust on removal
- Eight bags covers a long service interval
- GN size only, not FJM or other Miele codes
- Genuine Miele bags cost more than generics
- Filters need replacing on their own schedule
Performance notes
An electrostatic charge in the multi-layer bag wall pulls fine dust to the sides rather than letting it clog the middle of the airflow path, which is how suction holds up as the bag fills. The HyClose collar seals the opening automatically as the bag is withdrawn, so what was collected does not come back out during the change. The SF-HA 50 handles the final exhaust stage.
