Replacement filter for discontinued vacuum (lemmy.world)

I have a Eureka upright vacuum and I guess it got discontinued several years ago. I have been unable to find a replacement filter for it now for years, out of stock everywhere. I’ve been cleaning the filter but now the filter has a hole and it needs to be replaced. Anyone know how I can replace the filter? Really don’t want to buy another vacuum and turn my current one into a useless hunk of plastic.

This is the part I can find nowhere: https://kirkwoodsweeper.com/shop/eureka-dcf5-dust-cup-filter/

Didn’t think to contact their support, went ahead and did that. Will see if they are able to do anything.

Whelp, reached out to their support and after a week they told me they “don’t support” the vacuum anymore and have no parts for it. So I won’t support Eureka after this vacuum either. Fuck planned obsolescence.
