Thank you, Mark! I feel like Rosie the Riveter. Your instructions were very easy to follow. My husband has been ill and this is only one of the many things that I've had to learn. You did a good thing today.

@jungillest No. There are dozens and dozens of vacuum belt sizes and styles on the market. It's true that one vacuum belt type and size is usually designed to fit several vacuum models, but matching the correct belt to a vacuum must be done on a case-by-case basis with the vacuum's model number. You can use our website's part finder at eReplacementParts*com to quickly find the right belt for your vacuum model. Also, you may find our our Vacuum Belt Buying Guide article very helpful.

Watched the video and was able to do the work on my vacuum in only a couple minutes. I had a feeling this was easy but wasn't sure what to do exactly and this helped me to do it with ease. Thanks for the video.

I am glad that it snapped back easily into place. You seemed very pleased. It happily reminded me of a favorite memory. Thank you for the tip.

I was going to throw my vacuum out. Now I feel confident enough to try repairing it. Thanks!

@Nena15C Most belt changes should be pretty similar, although, different vacuum belt styles can change things a little. We're waiting for a good bissell cleaner to come through the shop so we can record a demonstration. Keep checking back and thanks for watching!

Thank for making simple. I have question as I replace belts, they will break easily and evan not last more than 30 minute of continuous vacuuming. I was wondering if i am installing wrongly. Pls advise.
