Q: QuestionHow often does the base bag need to be replaced?

Asked 3 years ago by Magellan.

• A:Answer We have 5 dogs and the first bag lasted a week or so as the unit “caught up” to the rate debris finds its way to the floors. (It runs every day) After that we don’t know yet because we’ve only had to change it out the one time so far. It’ll vary depending on the workload.
