Thank you for the deal info! Big help! People should not be hesitant to shop around and reach out to both local and online/out of state authorized dealers. Often you’ll find they’ll price match most competitor deals/coupons within reason. Also better chance of avoiding sales tax by checking out of state dealers! Most with an online presence offer free shipping within the continental US. I had great luck a week ago getting a new Sebo Felix from an out of state dealer for $240 less than what I would have paid locally MSRP+tax. They gave me 25% off, free shipping, no tax, extended warranty. They even threw in some free bags!

On the other hand, you’re absolutely right about suction loss when bag fills. Noticed that when we briefly had a Felix few years ago . On a positive note, you obviously getting full power back when you change the bag

So I have a rug similar to this and even my tuned Kirby G4 struggles on it. It’s high pile microfiber shag and air does not flow through it. The few machines I’ve found that do work on it are turbo nozzle canisters and surprisingly, Shark Navigator Lift-Away with the brush on and suction bleed valve open. My Miele H1 with an SEB-236 nozzle does not work, neither does my SEBO Felix or Oreck Classic or XL21 platform. Oreck Magnesium/Discover supposedly does work because it’s very light so the machine doesn’t burry the nozzle. I’ve found you’ll want a lightweight nozzle so it can float on top of the pile. My rug is so thick that height adjustment doesn’t really work. The best way to deep clean these rugs is to flip them over and vacuum the underside with a machine that has lots of agitation and vibration. That will cause the grit to fall onto the floor. Carefully remove the rug and clean up the grit.

Sorry that you are in this tricky situation.  Your best bet is to find a vacuum with adjustable height and suction.  While most mainstream vacuums lack manual height adjustment, many still have suction control via an air relief collar or sliding switch, so if you still have the vacuums you bought, see if you can try out changing the suction.  I don't have good recommendations from the big box stores.      I suggest you visit a vacuum store nearby with a chunk of your carpet to try out in store options.  Some places will let you try out a vacuum at home so you can see how it does on your carpet/pad.    I don't think a canister would be a better choice than an upright.  One option that would likely work is Sebo Felix with a soft brush installed, but it will be quite above your ideal budget. There is also a way to add a lower carpet plate to reduce bogging down.     https://youtu.be/B43hCnP4UUE?si=4tnn3wbOfGIEiejI   Eta for reference the video shows these modifications on the Sebo Nozzle that comes with upright Felix or canisters E3 and D4.   I have a newer carpet/waterproof pad and the E3 and it works for us, but ymwv.

Re: upright vs canister. I can’t say much more than old man has already said. But imo your best option is to find a local Miele/Sebo dealer and take a dart/felix/k3 and a Miele C1 cat and dog for a test drive to see if *you* prefer an upright or a canister. there is no right answer, it’s purely personal preference. For me, I prefer a canister. (Miele C3) It’s lights out on hard flooring vs an upright (sans Felix) IMO. But admittedly there is a learning curve for carpet because the motor doesn’t glide along as easy. What helped me get used to the canister was vacuuming *IN* to the room. Rather than backing out of it like so many do with an upright. I’m a total convert to canisters now, they’re very light in the hand, maneuverable and easy for above floor cleaning. The Felix is a good in-between. It has a hard floor attachment but is still an upright form factor.

Look to corded and bagged. They’re the gold standard. If you prefer an upright a Sebo dart or Felix is excellent. So is a Sebo K3 or E3 or Miele C1 cat and dog. All of these are at the top end of your budget and beyond. But if you want something that will last years and years (decade or two) these are well worth the price. IMO your best bet is to find a local Miele/Sebo dealer and take the above for a test drive before you buy.

I just purchased a vacuum last weekend. Went in wanting an upright with a bag and hose attachment. Ready to choose the Riccar R25 Deluxe or the Sebo Felix. Walked out with the Felix and a feeling it will be around a for a long time with the warranty and ease of repair. I know you said Amazon but I urge you to keep an open mind to a vac shop especially with that amount of floor space. I went in with BIFL mentality as I have thrown away several vacuums over the years and ultimately spent more overall.

Well, after 6 month of continuous use on a home that has 4 kids under 9, 2800 square foot bungalow, 80% hardwood floor with couple area rugs, kids bedroom in carpet........Out of 10 for overall performance, I give this vacuum........ drum rolllllllllll A "Meh" 6 out of 10 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. On the bedroom carpets I give it a solid 8.5 - it functions as advertised and performs well. 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 and when the bag gets 3/4 full it losses 60-70% of its suction I'd estimate. Again, this review is also based on having spent $800 after going into a specialized vacuum store and telling them to sell me what they recommend. So yes, I am frustrated. I actually miss my previous Dyson. Oh well, live and learn. 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.

I bought a Sebo Felix earlier this year and swapped out the original brush roll for the green delicate one. Super easy to change out and works better on our wool area rug as well as the Berber carpet in the bedrooms. For the rug, I change the brush height on the power head to 4 (max) and it works great without tearing it up. Or I could just turn off the beater bar with by stepping on the button and go straight suction.

You will want a Miele c3 or sebo E3/D4 premium. Make sure if you get the Miele that it comes with an electric powerhead and the parquet twister XL. If you go for either of the SEBOs, get their parquet tool. If you must have an upright, get a sebo dart/felix (they are the same vacuum but the Felix is the “premium version”) and both of these have the convenience of a canister in the form of an upright. I can vouch for the sebo models mentioned as I own them and use them In my home- my Felix is coming up on 10yrs next month.

If you go with a Miele cannister with electric cleanerhead they recommend the SEB228 for your type of carpet. pretty much any of the Sebo's can be switched to a soft bristle roller. The Felix upright uses the same ET1 head as the cannisters and has a swivel neck if you prefer uprights. Also you don't HAVE to switch to the parquet tool for bare floors. You can turn the roller off, drop the height, and use suction only when you need to. Some (if not all) Riccars can also be fitted with soft nylon or natural hair bristles. Any of them will do a good job if properly set up. My suggestion would be to go into a vac shop and try the different models. If you have any carpet pieces handy, take it in with you.

mrwilliewonka • about 2 months ago

As great of a machine as the Felix is I'm often hesitant to recommend it to people who have a lot of mixed flooring and would be swapping out the heads often. For that I tend to recommend the Lindhaus Diamante since it's a dual motor machine that can go from carpet to hard floor with just the push of a button. I know you can do that on the Felix but the ET-1 isn't the best on hard floors. It'll do it but something like the Diamante is more better suited for that

Did they make you buy the hard floor head? On the Felix it's supposed to come standard. And there's a little yellow tab on the side that you can pop out and pull out the front brush strip which opens up the front allowing larger debris to pass through easier

Sebo Felix - all the things I DIDN'T want in a vacuum and never knew I needed German engineering with ridiculous good suction which you can gradually increase/decrease for different flooring (no more doing gymnastics to keep the rug from getting sucked up), bags so my allergies are way better managed (and a bag lasts a good long time too), replaceable/ repairable parts, and cute outer filters you can change out as you want. It's super smooth to run, the cord is long, and it's not loud for a vacuum which is great in an apartment. It works well on multiple floor types too as Ive got vinyl plank, tile, and medium pile carpet. It's got It's drawbacks of course, like not locking upright with the parquet head on - but I don't find that to be a deal breaker as it's not my common use head anyhow so I don't mind swapping if need be for particulars. I went in wanting a bagless cannister with no extra parts or pieces to lose but I've never been so glad to be wrong!

Old_Man_Smell • 9 months ago

The problems you are having that are making you not want to vacuum are all due to using a bagless vacuum. My guess is that you are using a Dyson? I never realized how disgusting and inconvenient bagless vacuums were until I switched to a high quality bagged machine. Cleaning filters, dustbins, and the vacuum itself is ridiculous. I was spending as much time cleaning the machine that was supposed to do the cleaning than I was cleaning my home. $550 will get you a Sebo Dart. It's an incredible carpet cleaning machine. It will actually remove all that embedded dirt and hair. If you get any sort of satisfaction from having things deep cleaned, it will make you WANT to vacuum. Every couple to three months you will open the dust bin, place a cap on a bag and throw the bag away. No dust clouds, no pulling clumps of filth out, no filter washing and no dust bin cleaning. The hair wrap problem is pretty tough to avoid, but the Dart's brush roll is very simple to remove and clean. It's even dishwasher safe. Sebo offers a 10 year warranty when purchased through a dealer and you can expect it to perform like new for 20+ years. I know I sound like a salesman, but I own the Dart's older sibling the Felix, and it is the best investment I have made in my homes cleanliness. I love vacuuming because my home is so clean after using it, it's just very satisfying. Edit: Forgot to mention that the filtration is superior as well, no more dust being sucked up and blown around.

Several good choices in your budget. SEBO Felix if you prefer an upright. If a canister is more what you are looking for the SEBO K3 is a right at the top of your budget, but it's SEBO's least expensive canister option that fits your needs.

Sebo, Henry, Miele, Lindhaus all make BIFL level machines. They're expensive, but 20+ years of service is common with these brands.

Yeah. I don't think there's another option that will markedly outperform that from a cleaning perspective. Any upgrades I'd do to your vacuum would be to get a dedicated hard floor tool. But that doesn't solve your convenience issue Unfortunately, cordless machines for daily pickups don't come cheap I'd look into corded electric brooms. The Sebo Felix (without the ET-1 powerhead) might fit your needs but not your budget. The out of production Miele S1 would suit it well. Or one of the Lindhaus electric brooms (like the Valzer)

> it's just so convenient. I used Dysons for the past decade plus and switched to a Sebo Felix earlier this year - for the exact reason you mentioned... the filtering isn't great. Also, the regular maintenance for a Dyson is just more time consuming compared to just swapping a bag / filter on the Sebo. The constant regular expense of bags and filters for the Sebo is certainly a negative vs Dyson but those have (so far) been super easy to do and preferable (to me anyway) of the monthly exercise of washing the Dyson filters. Also, not recommended maintenance, but I would also wipe down the canister interior at the same time since my vacuum would be out of commission anyway for at least a day waiting for the filters to dry.

Sebo Felix is probalby the most popular vacuum on reddit in recent years so it should be on the OPS list too. That said I bought it and I don't love it I kind of wish I tried a cannister model like you and repaired my my very well worn oreck magnesium just for the stairs. The sebo felix works really well but it's weirdly balanced, heavy and hard to push on carpet, and it turns out I don't like swivelling heads very much. I could vacuum the stairs with my old one teh regular way. I have no choice but to use the arm attachment on the stairs because of the awkard balance and swivelling head. Even then the vacuum is falling over all over the place while I'm using the hand attachment.

Nope, though I wouldn’t mind a decent bagged cordless for a low price for quick run arounds. The GTech Pro 2 is something like I’m thinking about but can’t find one anywhere currently.

Agree with everyone saying SEBO, biggest reasons being top quality, easy to clean, and very strong. The best tool for pet hair, especially on floors is the premium parquet tool which is included with the Felix (~$700). The dart is the simpler version ~$500 and you can buy the tool separately.

If you want good filtration you should choose a hepa bagged vacuum with a hepa exhaust filter. Bagless vacuums with hepa filters leak unfiltered air all over the vacuum as seals get dirty and wear out. 2 metrics to measure the suction power of a vacuum are air volume in cfm and water lift in inches. CFM is the amount of air the vacuum is moving and the water lift is the strength that the vacuum is sucking at. You want to have good numbers for both. One example of low CFM but medium water lift is most cordless vacuums, they have decent strength but don't move much air and so the overall suction power is weak. A slightly less accurate metric is the power consumption usually in watts or amps. A corded vacuum that has a smaller motor that uses less electricity is usually less powerful, but this doesn't account for efficiency so it's not the best metric. However you do want to look for a vacuum that uses 10 to 12 amps. Many cheap vacuums use less than 10 amps and they have weaker suction. For carpets you need a spinning brushroll and for hard floors you want the ability to turn off the brushroll. 1. [Sebo Felix](https://sebo.us/product/felix) $749. This is a fantastic all-around upright vacuum with swivel steering. 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. One downside is the Felix is top heavy and the hose is short. Sebos last 15-20 years and come with a 10-year warranty. 2. [Sebo K3](https://sebo.us/product/airbelt-k) $899. This is a canister vacuum with a carpet powerhead and a dedicated hard floor brush. If you want a longer hose and the ability to clean under very low furniture a canister is the way to go. The K3 comes standard with S-Class filtration and has an optional Hepa filter as well. Downside is many people are not used to pulling a canister behind them. 3.

A budget option is this Kenmore Elite upright vacuum. It uses hepa bags and a hepa exhaust filter. Just like the Felix and K3 this Kenmore Elite has carpet height adjustment for different carpeting and brushroll shutoff for hard floors. Downsides are the Elite is heavy and it has a short hose. This Kenmore should last 3-5+ years. What do you think?

A new Sebo Felix doesn't come with a brush attachment as standard, only a crevice tool and mini head. The main brush bar uses synthetic bristles too. I think you'd be pretty safe and they are excellent cleaners.

Alternatively, the sebo Felix is good on carpet (I think it’s like the dart but the dart doesn’t have a swivel head). Or you can buy the Karcher CV300 for a lot less which is identical to the Felix without the attachments, swivel head or the hardwood floor head. You can buy those piecemeal if you need any individually. It takes the same bags, brushes, belts, etc as the Felix. Edit: clarify feature on the dart vs Felix

Wow this comment just saved me some money. Never heard of wcvac and turns out they're about a hour away from me. Was in the market on getting a Sebo Felix and was literally about to checkout on one at eVacuumstore with a 10 percent off for first time buyers. Decided to message the chat at wcvac and got connected with William told William that I was going to check out on the Felix with the 10 percent code, and wanted to see if they had any promotions going on. Dude gave me a 25 percent off code with free shipping and free box of bags. Boom placed an order with the code right there and then. Sure my mother would appreciate this mothers day gift!

> SEBO Essential G4 Weird that you got a downvote. Probably some vendor that does not carry the G4? Anyway as a felix owner I am totally jealous of that quick draw wand hose. 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. Would love a stowable wand you just pull out like on the G4. My only concern is the OP has 1/2 solid flooring. How is the G4 on hard floors or would he need something separate for that too? My experience is the ET-1 does OK not great on hard floors. Especially with stuff like edge cleaning. But that's a different head than ET-1 on the G4?

V11 and later versions of their cordless perform ok for thick carpets. You have to open the front gates to relieve pressure. If you have a lot of carpet, you have to learn to stop cleaning your entire home in one go. If you really want a Dyson, I would personally only get the Ball Animal 3 for your thick carpets. It also works really well for hard floors. You should watch Vacuum War's review on it to see if it fits your needs. DO NOT get any other version of Dyson uprights, they are horrible and only work on very specific types of carpets. Otherwise, a Sebo upright is my next recommendation if you don't mind bagged.

Sebo is less expensive to own and will last longer than a Miele. Sebo durability is legendary. Sebo has vastly better parts support and customer service than Miele. Miele won't sell you parts directly. They force you to use a dealer who will charge you out the hooter and some won't even sell you parts.. They want you to leave the vacuum with them to fix, even simple things like replacing a worn out brush roll. Some Aerus and Riccar dealers do this too. Sebo will sell you any part you want and a real human answers the phone and will answer your questions. Sebo has a lot nicer attachments too. Miele attachments look they came off a budget Bissell. Sebo attachments are high quality.

If filtration is your primary concern the best filtered vacuum, not the most powerful or easiest to use, but best filtered is the Patriot from Schoettler Research and Engineering in Huntington Beach CA. They have this huge round HEPA filter on them that looks uglier than sin but there isn't a better filtered household vacuum made. They cost a lot unless you buy a used one off eBay ( what I would do ) are simple and last forever, but can be frustrating to use until you adapt to it. Old man Schoettler used to be the President of Interstate Engineering, the company that made Tristar vacuums. He went out on his own and starting making his own vacuum that is a lot like a classic old Tristar EX-20. Not the most powerful thing ever made but solid, dead reliable, well filtered and clumsy to empty sometimes until you get a groove going. They sell them with a Sebo ET-1 power nozzle which is what I would buy. They also offer a Wessel-Werk EBK360 but I think you find that one too aggressive for your rugs. The Sebo with the soft green bristle brush roll would be ideal.

While I'm certainly a fan of Kenmore vacuums for uprights I think I would look at Sebo, Lindhaus, Carpet Pro, CleanMax (those last two are both Tacony commerical vacuum brands) and Titan. Sebo has legendary durability, are easy to maintain and Sebo parts and supply prices are very reasonable. Sebo has superb customer service. With some shopping you can probably find a deal on an open box or display item that would meet your budget. Lindhaus is an Italian brand that dukes it out with Sebo for the high end commercial vacuum customer's business. They are only a quarter notch below Sebo for durability and their customer service is likewise superb. Both companies have a real live human in the US who answers the phone! Both clean carpets really well and both are built to survive many years of hard daily use by janitors and hospitality staff. Carpet Pro and CleanMax are heavy duty commercial uprights from Tacony Corp, but some of their models have all the bells and whistles that household cleaners have. What I like about them is they have steel sole plates and steel brush rolls with replaceable brush strips. These things are also built to survive hard daily use by custodians and hospitality staff. In household use they will last many years with minimal trouble. Titan is the house brand of a big vacuum parts wholesaler, Steel City Vacuums. Most of their uprights are made by Tacony and many are still made in the US. They have the same virtues as Carpet Pro and CleanMax but are aimed more at household users so they have more features.

There are a handful of vacuums that can clean the Mohawk SmartStrand Silk “soft carpet.” 1. Kirby (with the optional delicate brush roll I presume) 2. Miele C3 with the SEB228; used to be a SoftCarpet model but it wasn’t much different from the other C3s. 3. Sebo vacs with the ET-1 nozzle (adjustable suction, manual carpet height adjustment) with the delicate brush roll 4. Kenmore Elite canister 5. Rainbow SRX with v1.0 and v1.2 power nozzle + soft brush roll 6. SoniClean - I think those are the vacs that have a vibrating pad instead of a revolving brush roll There are more, but these are a few of them. Adjustable carpet height paired with adjustable suction are must have features for those types of carpet, but I like them for any type of carpet.

The comment regarding the handle creaky sounds and audible air leak... I have found the audible air leak in multiple Miele canisters (over the years) AND Sebo. I don't think this is a change from previous models I've used. It just seems to be a reality that they don't see as a significant concern (ie. likely to not affect performance in a meaningful way, but preventing it would probably require fittings that would likely add cost, decrease dependability, and in the very least, wear down with not much use to the point that they ultimately start leaking). I really don't think it likely makes a noteworthy difference and they know the benefit:cost situation. As for the creaky handle -with even slight "give" in it, I have definitely noted it, but again, I believe it is one of those, "it doesn't actually affect anything in a meaningful way, but it does allow for the fit and connections as intended" situations. I could be wrong, but if it were an issue, I think warranty costs alone would discourage them from continuing with the practice. BUT, again, there is no doubt, that it is a very real thing. I haven't had an issue with the swivel of the ET-1 but prefer how light and maneuverable it feels to me. The low profile is also much better than \*most\* of the high end power heads I've used. Thank you for the review and thoughts. It is nice to hear about experiences!

Go to a mom and pop vacuum store and you’ll be surprised to find Dyson and Shark absent. But you’ll see plenty of Miele and Sebos amongst a few other names you’d never think of. The reason being is these vacuums are serviceable and repairable and more importantly bagged. Bagged vacuums tend to last longer in general.

+1 Miele and Sebo vacuums are really really fantastic. They are on a different level of ability to vacuum. But they are not nearly as convenient, and unless you really really love vacuuming, a really good vacuum that is ridiculously convenient is going to be used a lot more than an even better vacuum that is less convenient. The Dyson stick vacuums are so convenient that you end up using it more, and you therefore end up with a cleaner place and more enjoyable living experience.

I have a Sebo and really like it, but just generally would recommend a bagged vacuum over a bagless upright.

Completely pulling apart and having it professionally serviced never got all the doggy smell out of the dyson. Newer dysons are also absolute junk compared to a dyson from 10-15 years ago.

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. (Actually more than that because I didn’t tell people I also have 3 cats haha) Someone with a husky commented that they replace the bag 1.5-2 times a month. Calculating that cost for two dogs is another 210 a year in bags (probably more for me) I am taking that into account with  replacing a vacuum that died (Dyson) but it doesn’t have a bag or a Sebo that has a 10 year warranty but I will have probably bought 2-3 dysons in that time period with the amount I’d be spending on bags. I haven’t decided yet 🙃 but thought I’d share the numbers.

Sebo. For starters, 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.) Shark has never been a BIFL brand (they ever don't sell replacement parts when something breaks-which something always does within a few years-except for hoses and filters.) Dyson spends tons of money marketing their machines but the quality has declined A LOT the past decade and their warranty/replacement policy is a headache (check the Dyson sub for all kinds of takes on that.) Any bagless machine is NOT going to be a BIFL machine. They're mostly machines sold with buzzwords and many smoke and mirrors.

Sebo and Miele are BIFL. Dyson is not BIFL. If you buy a Sebo, the manual comes with an exploded parts diagram where you can buy each and every part. Dyson does not have this because when something breaks, they want you to buy a new vacuum. Same goes for Shark, Bissell and other bagless garbage that people keep recommending.
