"I’m 58 and I won’t need another vacuum before I die."
"I have had my Sebo for 20+ years and still going strong."
"a 7-10 year warranty on motor and non-wear parts. ... No other vacuum company stands behind their product the way they so (not even Miele these days.)"

"Throw in the brushes. Mind blown. This thing is a beast. ... Amazing for multiple pugs and wool rugs!"
"Does fantastic with dog hair."
"turbo brush attachment works wonders. It's crazy good on the pet hair on the couch. ... it gets the cat hair off the couch so fast I can't not use it xD"

"I really prefer the bagged system over dumping and cleaning out a canister. ... That’s how it helps with allergens because the unit itself stays much cleaner everything is contained in the bag and you just toss it when it is full. ... It has a little cap to close the bag before dumping it too so nothing will come out and get in the air."
"It’s helped our house with allergies and dust so much."
"Sebos have near hepa filtration, Sebo's S-Class filters 99.9% of 0.3 microns compared to Hepa's 99.97% of 0.3 microns. ... Mold spores are 2 to 10 microns so Sebo's filtration is much higher than needed."

"weirdly balanced, heavy and hard to push on carpet ... man do i miss having a vacuum that was 1/3 the weight and self propels ... I threw out my back and few months ago and vacuuming with the sebo every 4-5 days (I have a long hair cat) just about killed me. ... I put the brush on the highest setting it still feels really hard to push compared to my old one. ... it def takes me a lot longer to vacuum 3 floors and a bunch of steps with it."
"That makes them clench down, and therefore makes them hard to push and pull on that type of carpet. ... it was very difficult to push on that carpet until I adjusted it."
"One downside is the Felix is top heavy"

"Gosh the felix system is SO annoying. ... To use a wand/atachment you need to bend down almost to the floor, take out the hose then figure out where you left the wand (closet? Last place you used it?) attach the wand find the attachment (they love to fall of that @ss holder on the felix) then tear t e whole thing apart when you are done."
"parquet head might be great but who on earth bothers with swapping it on Felix?"
"I'm often hesitant to recommend it to people who have a lot of mixed flooring and would be swapping out the heads often."

"If you're cleaning a lot of hardwood floors, I would not do Sebo uprights as they don't have a brushroll shutoff"
"On Hardwood, even with the proper additional attachment for solid floors, I give it a 6/10. ... It pushes a lot of debris and crumbs around ... If you are mostly hard surfaced floor in your home I whole heartedly do not recommend the Sebo Felix Premium Upright vacuum. Buy something else."
"My experience is the ET-1 does OK not great on hard floors. Especially with stuff like edge cleaning."

"Sure the suctions is impressive, so much so I keep getting the red light error message on all area rugs and some carpet. ... So it essentially sucks too hard for the head to work, thus making it super frustrating to operate. ... Still can’t do some of the rugs in house. ... My wife is the most patient human in the world. This vacuum is her enemy. She hates it lol"

"I just asked about how often I’d be buying bags for a sebo with two high shedding large dogs, (similar probably too a gsd and 3 (if long hair cats) I would probably be replacing the bag every week. ... Calculating that cost for two dogs is another 210 a year in bags (probably more for me)"
"The constant regular expense of bags and filters for the Sebo is certainly a negative vs Dyson"
"On the other hand, you ’re absolutely right about suction loss when bag fills."
