CWP makes brush rolls for many vacuum cleaner manufacturers. When you purchase a brush roll manufactured by CWP, you are purchasing a brush roll designed and manufactured to meet or exceed the original brush roll specifications.
CWP is a leading manufacturer of wood based brush rolls, and has been for well over 70 years. CWP selects the finest wood species to ensure reliability and durability. Metal brush rolls may have a tendency to rust, or get 'nicks' in the metal which may cause snags in the carpet. This is not experienced with wood brush rolls.
Due to manufacturing requirements the color of the brush roll or the brush's bristle color may differ from the original brush roll. If the correct brush roll part number has been selected, you can be assured that the brush roll you purchased will fit and work in your respective vacuum cleaner.
For ease of purchase, you should have the vacuum cleaner's Brand name, Model name, and Model number. This information may be found in the Owner's Manual or on the product data sticker found on the side or bottom of the vacuum cleaner.

The bag type for your vacuum can be found in the Owner's Manual, or on the product data sticker found on the side or bottom of the vacuum cleaner. Use this bag type to select the CLEANOVATION™ style of bag.
Vacuum cleaner bags may emit an odor if the weather is hot and humid. An odor could also be present if pet hair has been vacuumed. Dispose of this bag and replace with a new CLEANOVATION™ bag.

Re-using a bag continues to 'clog' the pores of the bag which reduces the filtration capabilities, and may result in poor cleaning performance.
