I really like my E3 Sebo.... but my house is half your size, you'd prob want the bigger D4... always get the powerhead (no E2) if you have carpets. Tried them all in store (upright sebos, canister sebos, mieles) for like an hour. I had researched and had thought I was gonna go felix but holding it in hand for killed that idea. I'm a full on convert to canister vacs (i have stairs and like to dust w a vacuum). miele more expensive, and more expensive parts and repair, shorter warranty. I like sebo just does one thing... make vacuums, and they did commercial first, so you are getting a commercial vac w residential trim, not "consumer grade" (I apply the same logic to computer purchases).

I went sebo (E3) over miele due to: cheaper, better warranty, cheaper parts and repair, and sebo does one thing (make vacuums)... suprised theres no sebo dealer nearby, I recommend trying to fine one even if its a drive. Think of SEBO like volkswagen, and MIELE like BMW. the variety of responses here are proof positive of TRY BEFORE BUY I tried miele, sebo uprights, sebo felix, sebo canister. disliked the felix immediately upon trying, despite my mind leaning felix during the online research phase! I'm a total convert from upright to canister (or at least sebos version of it) but you need to assess if you can handle the quirks of a canister. downsides of a canister: 1) one more thing to keep track of (I got used to it fast, I just kick it around or pull it by the hose) 2) harder to store (pending a good solution to this...) 3) heavier to take up the stairs (but easier to actually vacuum said stairs) Upsides of the canister: 1) lighter IN HAND (the weight of the vacuum is supported by the floor, not your hand, in use). 2) cord rewind (wrapping up cords after a upright vacuum session sucks, the SEBO you just unplug and step on the retract button. 3) much easier to do top to bottom detail vacuuming (fans, vents, dusting, cabinets, walls, pictures, shelves, dusting), wand/hose mode reaches many more high places and without tipping over the upright. 4) easier to maneuver the power head. yes you gotta maneuver the canister into position, but once you do you can get that powerhead into alot more difficult to reach places (under beds, couches, rugs, tables). Easier to maneuver the canister than moving furniture. I'm over cordless due to wall to wall carpet, the time limit (good for quick pickups only), and I really dislike the cleaning/washing/emptying of bagless machines (which most cordless are). The whole reason I vacuum is to GET RID of dust, dirt and nastiness... why do I wanna go touching and breathing it later... in concentrated form, bathing in a big ol dust cloud?!

water does not filter very well as bubbles pop and unfiltered dust shoots through, get a miele or Sebobagged vacuum

You’re in the states we have rainbow water Vacuums until the last 20 years when they put HEPA filters on them they had a horrible filtration. I have a device that I can test that with. sorry I meant until they put the HEPA exhaust filter on them. They were very bad filtering.

I’m not sure what brands you have in Europe and I was thinking of a canister style Miele or SEBO

Sebo is most of my business so that!

Of course she will get conflicting views here. SEBO if you have the money as well worth it if not, go with the Kenny.

Or the only other quality Vacuum is the SEBO you can tell them that you want one of those instead

As a small vacuum business myself, I would be happy to switch it out for you, if you feel better, call them ahead of time. Tell him what happened and you decide to go with the SEBO

Windsor/Sebo as good as it gets, what is breaking?

A D4 is way too big for a smaller home or an apartment. If you’re looking for a more compact canister, look at a K3 premium or a E3.

I have a D4 for upstairs carpets and two dogs, one cat. I chose it specifically over the E3 because it has a very long cord and for the configuration of our house that worked for me. I hate plugging/unplugging! But it is heavy and I don't use it on the stairs or downstairs. If you want to carry it around choose the E3.

It can suck your granny's teeth out, a really powerful machine!

That might do for you. I got a similar vac, a Titan fron Screwfix and have been very pleased with it. It's very noisy, as it's shop and not domestic. I bought it for dealing with various bits of dust and rubbleand ash, kept it as a general downstairs vac for floors that are brick and stone with rugs. Upstairs we have carpet and pets and I have a Sebo, but that's partly because I'm not prepared to lug the Titan up and down stairs, I need a vac on each floor. I've only used it once as a wet vac but it was very effective at that too. https://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb774vac-1300w-16ltr-wet-dry-vacuum-220-240v/826kh

I have a Shop Vac which I tried using instead of my Sebo D4. This is how they compare. Shop Vac is not the same machine it once was. It’s a big cheap plastic bucket. One of the hooks broke off the accessories basket with a few days of me using it. Shop Vac is bulky and difficult to navigate around furniture. Shop Vac is easily pulled up and tipped over. Filtering on the Sebo is way better. Most residential vacuums could beat Shop Vac’s filter. Haven’t tried a Shop Vac HEPA yet though… The Sebo has a soft bumper around the canister to help prevent furniture damage. The Sebo accessories are better than Shop Vac’s for everyday cleaning because they clean better. Sebo is quieter than Shop Vac. Shop Vac is not meant for deep carpet vacuuming.

Me too! I commented about my Sebo as well. Best purchase i have made in years!

Sebo. EDIT: D-4 Canister. Save up, as they are spendy, but I swear your relatives will be fighting over who gets it when you are gone. :) I did a ton of research for over a year for my particular needs and budget. After doing the numbers (2 Dysons, 3 high end Sharks, vintage Kirby, etc...) it made sense to save up and invest in the best with an excellent warranty, German engineering, and the right to fix instead of trash. I have copious amounts of pet hair, cat litter, fine desert dust, multiple flooring materials (tile, wood, laminate, semi-shag carpet, heavy drapes, upholstered furniture, tactile 70s wallpaper). I tell you what, this thing SUCKS! LOL This vacuum will last me for the rest of my life and probably my kids' lives. They are dealer sold and maintained. It is totally worth it if you are sick of dying vacuums that you paid a pretty penny for and they failed to live up to your expectations for the long haul.

Definitely! My air is cleaner because of the filtration, the bag has a pop top, so no dust ever emptying it, it is actually pretty quiet for a vacuum, and the long hose coupled with the long cord means I can go from one side of the house to the other. Oh...wait...my house is a one level ranch. I would have chosen a different Sebo model if I had stairs. The D-4 is heavy, but they make lighter models.

Sebo D4, just picked it up to replace Lupé, our discontinued cordless. She was great but Sebo is a beast.
