Overview
Eight FJM AirClean dustbags with 2 pre-motor and 2 Super Air Clean filters, fitting the S241 to S256i, S290 to S291, S300i to S399, S500 to S578, S700 to S758 and S4000 to S4999 ranges. A spring-loaded shutter closes the bag as the machine opens.
FJM is the fitting Miele uses on its compact and older canisters, and the model list runs across two decades of machines - the S241 through S256i, the S290s, the S300i to S399, the S500s, the S700s and the S4000 series. The bags themselves are built the same as the larger GN packs; only the collar differs, so the model number is the only thing worth checking.
- 8 FJM AirClean bags in the pack
- Fits S241-S256i through S4000-S4999
- 2 pre-motor plus 2 Super Air Clean filters
- Spring-loaded hygiene shutter on every bag
Who it's for
Anyone still running an older or compact Miele, which is a large group given how long these machines last. If your vacuum predates the Complete C series and is still going, this is almost certainly your bag - and the included filters are worth having, since a vacuum that old has probably never had them changed.
Pros and cons
- Spring shutter seals before the bag clears
- Rubber collar seal keeps debris contained
- Pre-motor and exhaust filters both included
- Covers a wide span of older Miele models
- FJM collar only, not GN or U
- Model list is long and easy to misread
- Costs more than compatible alternatives
- No fill indicator on the bag itself
Performance notes
The hygiene shutter matters more than it sounds. Most of the dust that re-enters a room does so at the moment of disposal rather than during cleaning. A spring closure that seals before the bag clears the housing means the debris you collected actually leaves the house, instead of puffing back out over the floor you just did.
