This is so true and I wish I would have known this before I bought my SEBO K3. I love my cute little pink canister, but in my 700sqft apartment it’s really a pain to drag around. I got a refurbished Dyson V15 on Black Friday and it’s SO much more convenient. I feel obsessed with vacuuming now lol. I’ll always have my SEBO and it definitely is more powerful, but I’m not sure it’s worth it for a small space with hardwood floors.

Just go with the SEBO you’ll have better. Customer service down the line when air storm is gone.

for budget get the k3 sebo, powered head work better

sebo k3 least expensive good filtering, if you have carpet, or k1 if none, or c1 miele

I would do k3 or e3, personally not a fan of turbo brush on the less expensive units,but the e2 or k2 would suffice on a budget

Depends if you want a powered brush for carpet/rugs, c1 very short cord, so c3 or new guard series in miele or k or e series on sebo, e3 has powered head, e2 includes a torbo air powered head for rugs , and e1 just straight suction

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

I decided today that I’d give Sebo a try, I’ve owned every brand of high end machine you can buy and this is the last of my purchases. I bought a K3 Premium in red, looking forward to it arriving!

I’ve owned every high end vacuum you can buy, really loving our new Sebo K3 premium

Too bad you didn’t like the Sebo, so far loving my K3 in red. It was a replacement to the Shark Stick vac I’ve been using.

I bought a K3 premium, I’m sure I could have gotten away with straight suction but having the power nozzle makes it really nice to have when I need it. The main reason I got the K3 over the E3 is it’s more compact for smaller spaces and the Hepa Filter was something I really wanted!

I agree, the K3 premium was a great choice for our small space. It’s a bit more compact over the E series and it also offers Hepa Filtration if you’re looking for a bit more cleaner air than the standard filtration of a Sebo. Miele also makes great products also. My suggestion is go to a dealer!

I agree with your Post, I bought a K3 premium for Christmas only because we don’t have that large of a space and wanted something more compact. I love my SEBO.

I got the K3 (the entry level with the electric head) and it's been fantastic. We have 3 cats, 2 kids and a dog and the carpet gets pretty hairy at times and it's been night and day since I got the K3

Definitely seek out and visit a Sebo/Miele dealer so they can demo all your options. You will likely get a discount and/or additional goodies thrown in (bags, filters, attachments). Whether it's Sebo or Miele, the lower cost units are suction only and won't clean your bedroom carpets effectively. Make sure your choice has a power nozzle (Sebo E3, K3, D4 or Miele C3 cat and dog). Miele just rolled out their replacement for the C3, called the Guard series. Unfortunately, there are only 2 models with the power nozzle, so if you are offered the newest model make sure it isn't suction only. Oddly, the new Miele Guard Cat and Dog does not include a power nozzle option! There are clearance deals on the previous generation Miele's, I'd go that way over the new/full markup models as these machines are excellent (Marin and the white Cat and Dog C3s are my favorites).

Ideally, you have a vacuum retailer near you so you can test drive these and get a good deal; Miele C3, these are being closed out and remaining stock is marked down. The Kona, Cat & Dog, Marin, and Homecare E+ are the C3s to look for. A Miele C1 Cat and Dog is also a solid choice. There are 2 brand new L1 Guard vacuums from Miele; the L1 (blue) and L1 Electro (titanium). All of these models but the Marin use the same SEB 228 power nozzle. The Marin gets a lower profile SEB 236 with an LED light. Only dealers can sell the Homecare and Electro models, these have 5 year warranty’s vs standard 3 year. Discounts for Black Friday are @20% for remaining C3s, at least 15% everything else. For Sebo, the E3 and K3 are excellent vacuums to also consider. German made like Miele, 10 year warranty’s if purchased from a dealer, and very reliable.

I'm recommending 3 higher end, bagged, corded vacuums with power nozzles to address your area rugs. The first is the upright Sebo Felix. The power head is interchangeable with the premium parquet for bare floors. The onboard hose will address most of your above the floor cleaning and it includes a crevice tool and dusting brush. If you can find a Meile C3 Kona, Marin, or Cat & Dog that is discounted grab any of these canister models. Last either a Sebo E3 or K3 depending what might still be on sale.

With 3 finished floors across 1,500sf, the D4 is overkill and you'll hate moving it up and down stairs. The Sebo E3 and K3 or Miele Classic C1 are more portable. The K3 has the same 25' cord as the E3 and the bag is .8g vs .9 on the E3. As others recommended, you might be better off with a pure suction machine and turbo tool for the rugs.

The Sebo K3 is an excellent vacuum that will tackle carpet, bare floors, above the floor cleaning and can detail your car. I would add three tools to this vacuum based on your needs: (1) handheld mini turbo tool for upholstery, stairs, throw pillows, etc. (2) turn and clean style parquet brush for bare floors and getting under furniture (3) 9' extension stretch hose for your car interior, this hose is very flexible and will let you park the vacuum in your back seat and reach all the key areas in the car easily.

can’t personally speak to the miele but the sebo power head is amazing and if you’re mostly working with carpet, that would be my recommendation between the two. can you try them both out a vacuum store to decide between the two? i also find the sebo to be a nice weight and very mobile.

My old Miele died after 20+ years and I decided to get. a Sebo K3, which I regret. It’s very heavy, difficult to do stairs because the canister is so large, the cord is very short and not as flexible with attachments. I wish I’d gotten another Miele.
