- Filters: replacements that hold on to fine dust and keep suction strong.
- Carpet washer solutions: formulas for full-size carpet cleaners, with pet, antibacterial and fragranced versions.
- Spot cleaner solutions: made for small portable cleaners, including oxygen-based formulas for tough marks.

- Tools and adaptors: extra nozzles, brushes and attachments for getting under low furniture and into tight corners.

| Part | Suits | Worth checking |
| Bags and pods | Keeping a bagged or pod vacuum at full suction. | The bag code, how many come in a pack and whether filters are included. |
| Carpet washer solution | Cleaning whole rooms with a full-size machine. | That it's intended for your washer, and a bottle size to match how often you clean. |
| Spot cleaner solution | Small stains on the stairs or sofa, and accidents from pets. | That it suits your spot cleaner, and whether you want everyday, antibacterial or extra stain power. |
| Hard floor solution | Wet floor cleaners that vacuum and wash together. | The machines listed on the product page. |
| Tools and adaptors | Corners, skirting and the space under low furniture. | The fitting on your vacuum; tools from one range may not suit another by the same maker. |
Making the choice
Identify your machine
Everything hinges on knowing exactly which machine you have. The details are printed on its rating label, normally on the underside or tucked behind the door to the bag or bin. Each product page lists the machines a part suits. If yours isn't there, ask us before ordering.
Getting bags right
Bags are known by a type code or a coloured collar, and the matching code is marked on the bag holder inside the vacuum. Stick to that type: a bag that doesn't sit snugly lets dust slip past. Many packs include replacement filters too, so look at the contents before ordering filters separately.
Filters
Some filters can be rinsed and only need replacing when worn out; others have a fixed lifespan set out in the manual. When a vacuum loses suction, a blocked filter is the usual culprit.
Solutions
Choose for the machine first and the job second. Full-size washers and spot cleaners each need their own formula, because the two are designed to foam and rinse in different ways. Pet formulas tackle smells as well as stains; antibacterial versions suit homes with toddlers or animals. If you wash carpets often, bigger bottles are better value.
Tools and kits
Attachments depend on the vacuum's connector. Even within one brand, a kit designed for one series may not fit the next, so always read the compatibility list.
Before you order
- Have the model name handy. Copy it in full from the rating label.
- Compare pack sizes. Bags and pods are sold in different quantities, so compare like for like.
- Dilute as directed. Solutions are concentrated; the label says how much goes in the tank.
- Patch test. Try any solution somewhere hidden before doing a whole carpet or sofa.
- Store safely. Keep bottles upright, closed and away from children and pets.
