"I don't think there is any practical difference in the filtration between Miele and Sebo. I bought the HEPA filters and bags for my Sebo and it wasn't noticeable over the S-class filtration. ... couldn't prove it by me... ... it's no big deal to get the HEPA set from Sebo, if I perceived a difference. ...

"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 had an excellent experience at my local vacuum store. After explaining what I was looking for, the owner showed me a few different canister models, followed by some upright vacuums. He explained all the features and advantages of each. Over an hour later, I walked out with the Sebo Airbelt K2, the very first vacuum he showed me. Perfect size for my mostly tile and laminate flooring home.

Sebo K2 or Miele M1 All Foor are two excellent options for your floors. Both are durable, lightweight, bagged and quiet. Miele's newest floor attachment, the FiberTeQ all floor is impressive.

Do not listen to anyone recommending Shark or Dyson. Look into a Sebo K2. Suction only, but unless your carpet is high pile the turbo brush head will work on your carpet. It won’t break on you, dog hair and pine needles will not clog it, and in my opinion canisters are easier to use on stairs than an upright. Sebo won’t die on you, and if it does they’re extremely repairable at any shop. You will more than likely not need another vacuum for 10+ years. If you absolutely need something with an electric powerhead, the Kenmore Institution has one. It won’t last as long as a Sebo and they have some common failure points, but they’re not as bad as a shark or dyson.

You’ll save money. If you buy a Dyson or Shark you’ll have to spend another 200 or 300 bucks in a few years. If you buy a Sebo, you will be set for 10 to 20 years.

A lot of people on here work in vacuum shops, either managing them or as technicians repairing vacuums. We are all telling you that Shark / Dyson are garbage and you have to spend a fair amount to get a decent vacuum that will last you 4+ years. If you have all hardwood floors or some very low pile carpet, get a SEBO K2/E2, or a Miele suction only model. If you have carpet that is fairly high pile, you are kind of forced to spend a decent amount for a E3 or K3 type vacuum. If you don’t want to spend that much, Kenmore makes some halfway decent vacuums like the Intuition or Pop N Go that are fairly affordable with an electric head. I don’t know why most of your replies to people are you arguing with people whose literal job it is to work with vacuums about what is good and what’s not.

CIemson • 2 months ago

I’d go with a Sebo Airbelt K2. With these vacuums, you are buying a machine that you are keeping and using for the next 10+ years. Just for reference, I heard somewhere that most consumer grade vacuums (Bissel, Dyson, Shark) are made to operate for 250 hours of use. Sebo vacs are typically made to operate for 2000 hours of use. The Sebo is bagged, so it has better filtration than any stick or bagless vacuum, it will not blow dust back into the air like the cheaper ones do. It being a canister also opens you up to above floor cleaning. I’d recommend getting the Turbo head as well. It’s a suction powered brush head that you can use on your rugs. Everything said applies to Miele too, though.

Definitely don’t buy a $75 cordless vacuum. It will be in the trash before the New Year then you’ll be looking to replace it, wasting even more money. If you can stretch slightly (a bit). Keep an eye out for Black Friday sales for a Hoover Complete performance or Kenmore intuition. Agreed with Performance reviews - used is a great option for that budget.

All wood floor - if the stairs are a low pile runner, you can do a Miele C1 turbo team, Sebo k2 turbo or Henry extra. If the stairs are anything other than low pile you may want to look at a Miele C1 cat and dog. With all that dog hair this might be the way to go tbh.

I have a sebo and a hairy dog, and don't notice any odors or stink. I do buy the fragrances sebo sells, though, just as a fun luxury. I enjoy the way they smell, and they're very mild and the scent leaves soon enough. I don't think miele has better filtration- statistically, there's really no diff between the S-class and HEPA in the real world. I've also used HEPA filters in mine on occasion and don't notice any difference.

loving the idea of a cordless vacuum- why?? cords equal electrical current capable of driving powerful motors to clean really well!!! They don't degrade with time, they don't quit right when you need them. They are the miracle of power!! And get a bag, too, while you're at it. Quit falling for marketing! their job is to brainwash you to buy things, but you don't have to fall for it. I've tested both miele and sebo, their 'real' vacuums are both good. I bought a sebo, but if i had half off, I'd prob go for the miele. And I'd get a nice canister with bags and a cord (with auto cord retractors they all have).

Real vacuum dealerships will not sell Dyson any longer. Many other traditional brands either because those companies have decided to produce in Asia and change designs super fast. It is the OPPOSITE of sustainability, it is planned obsolescence at an incredible level. Vacs should not be bought online and a big box stores, these machines do not clean carpet/air, are designed to fail, can’t be serviced and are literal fire hazards. Man the stories I can tell you about “brand new” machines. Most were manufactured years before they reached the consumer. CAVEAT EMPTOR. Dealerships sell quality machines, built to last, serviceable, at great competitive prices, with warranties that do not cost extra. You can’t find service like that anywhere! Find a dealer and buy Riccar or Sebo.

 A canister is going to be best for hard floors since they have specialized heads for hard flooring.  Sebo K2 Turbo or E2 Turbo. K2 retails for $549 and E2 for $699. I'd recommend the E2 because its a newer, more refined, slightly larger  and more powerful machine than the K2 but the K2 is still a great option. I'd recommend seeing if you have a Sebo dealer nearby and stopping in to try one out.

Canisters aren’t better than uprights necessarily, but they tend to be more versatile with hard and mixed flooring. Most uprights have a cleaning head fixed to the machine that can’t be changed to match the flooring you are cleaning. A head with a spinning brush roll isn’t as effective as a head that has a no obstructions (like a brush roll) and a straight air path for hard floors. a cleaning head with a spinning brush roll to agitate is needed for carpets and rugs. On a canister you can change between these two types of cleaning heads to get the most effective cleaning possible. Canisters also leave the bulky pieces of the vacuum behind you, giving you a more nimble lightweight wand and hose to reach into nooks and crannies a bulky upright couldn’t like under beds and furniture or around tight corners. The ELI5 version: Imagine your vacuum has a special “foot” for different floors. Some “feet” have a spinning brush that’s great for carpets, digging out dirt. But that same brush just scatters dirt around on hard floors when it’s spinning or gets in the way when it’s not. Canister vacuums let you change “feet” easily, so you always have the right one. Upright vacuums usually only have the carpet “foot”. Also, canisters are like pulling a little wagon, the heavy part stays behind, so it’s easier to move the hose and get into tight spots. While SEBO and Miele are talked about a ton here, they are premium machines that don’t land in the budget of many people, I say this as a SEBO owner. They’re long lasting and very effective cleaners (buy once cry once). You can absolutely get effective cleaning from a less expensive machine. Your home and needs sounds like the Kenmore 600 series would work really well. It comes with a powered hand tool called the pet powermate that is amazing for furniture and stairs.

The Miele C1 Turbo Team meets your needs, but the cord length at 18 feet might not work for the reach you need for your stairs. The SEBO K2 Turbo has a 25ft cord and with the hose about 35ish feet of total reach from an outlet. The Kenmore 600 series has a slightly longer cord at 28ft, but I think the hose is a tad shorter than the SEBO so you get about the same total reach. All clean very well, light years better than any cordless vacuum. Of these 3 I would say SEBO K2 Turbo is the best pick if quality and longevity are priority. It comes with a DECADE of warranty when purchased through a dealer. 15-20+ years of life is common. Miele offers similar quality, but only a year of warranty and more difficult to source parts should you ever need them. The Kenmore is a fantastic value. With care 5-7+ years is totally possible.

If this is your primary vacuum, I wouldn't advise going for a cordless, bagless stick vacuum like a Dyson (although cordless sticks are good as secondary vacuums for quick pickups and touch ups Corded and bagged is best for a primary vacuum. Better airflow and suction (cordless often have the suction but not the airflow). Bags are just better for your allergies. Emptying the bagless vacuum results in a cloud of dust filled with the allergens you just sucked up A pure suction machine is sufficient, since you have hard floors with a rug or two. A turbo-brush (air driven turbine brush) would be good for cleaning the rug/carpet With your budget, you can get the best available Miele C3 (these are pure suction in Europe) with a turbo-brush option Sebo E2 Turbo, or K2 Turbo Numatic Henry CleanAir, Henry 160 Xtra Lindhaus HF6/Valzer if you happen to live in Italy 😂 The Numatics are going to be the simple reliable barebones option. Sebo the best value and built options. Miele the most refined and easily available option

I don’t think you’ll find a good vaccum for that price range. Dysons won’t do anything (I have one and have a medium pile rug). For even a small amount of rugs/carpets sebo k3/e3 or d4. If you think the amount of carpet you have is not that much compared to hardwood/tile, you could go with an e2 or k2. But I won’t recommend it.

Go to the closest Sebo dealer if you have one and test 1) sebo dart or felix because you might not be familiar with uprights 2) sebo k2 ($350-$400) 3) sebo e1/e2 ($550/$650) Last two are canisters. I would highly recommend the e1/e2. You just missed a huge sale that ended last weekend. You can ask the dealer about upcoming deals. All of the above have a 10 year warranty

I've been waiting for a review on this, thank you!! Yeah this machine is too cheap to pay for repairs if something goes wrong. If you absolutely have to have a budget/mid-range canister, this will do, but I think it's worth spending more for a SEBO or Miele that will last longer and perform better

You need to decide if you want an upright or canister vacuum. Canister vacuums are a little different to maneuver, but they're lighter because you only support the weight of the wand and nozzle. I highly recommend SEBO because they are a great mix of high quality and repairable if something goes wrong. You could get away with no powerhead (the brush spins so it's good for carpet), so you'd want a K2 or E2

K2 or E2 would do well! Alternatively you could buy one that has a power head (like the Dart) and buy a hard floor attachment like the premium parquet tool. This would work really well for all purposes. The Felix comes with that brush already and it has a swivel head, but it's closer to $700

The ET-1 powerhead is about $300+ alone. So the extra $500 for the K3 makes sense. The K2 is just straight suction so you can’t buy an extra powerhead for it in the future because the hose is non-electric. And I wouldn’t let $500 stop me from buying a vacuum cleaner that I decide to keep for 20 years. That’s $25 a year.

For mostly hard floors a corded canister vacuum with bags will be very powerful and very durable. Budget Pick: Powr-Flite Newton with Turbo Nozzle $171. This is a dry commercial canister vacuum. It's a copycat of the Henry vacuum. It has strong suction but it's quiet. It uses large hepa bags that should last around 2-3 months per bag. The standard Newton $160 comes with the combo floor brush. The Newton with Turbo Nozzle comes with the combo brush and a turbo brush which will clean low pile rugs and carpets. It has a long 35 ft. cord. Downsides are it doesn't have an automatic cord rewinder and it only comes with 2 additional cleaning tools. BIFL Premium Pick: Sebo K2 Kombi $399. This is a German canister vacuum that comes with a 10-year warranty from authorized dealers. Strong suction but very quiet. It has adjustable speed control and an automatic cord rewinder. Sebos last 15-20 years. The K2 Kombi comes with a combo floor brush and 3 tools. Sebo has a wide array of additional floor brushes and tools. Downside is the higher price. What do you think?

Most cordless vacuums will have a hard time fitting under a 3 inch clearance. Since it's just hard floors would look at canister vacuums. You'll be able to attach floor heads and smaller dusting brushes and angle them to what you need. It will still be a tight fit for some floor heads. I'd look at canister vacuums with slim handles too so that when you lay the wand down you don't have to angle it because of a wider handle. I'd go for the [Powr-Flite Newton](https://www.powr-flite.com/newton-tub-vac-pv610-q10-u.html) $149 and add the [Wessel Werk RD285 (1.25 inch diameter)](https://www.amazon.com/Wessel-Werk-RD285-Ultra-Thin-Combination-Attachment/dp/B0979GNSJG/ref=sr_1_4_sspa?crid=2UNDAB5MEKAON&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bvLppONHKcI7tmCDX_DBMiWFRIAbSTXRJq7Zdj0pzaPxZvcYBatC3Y7eNOQrifnRL4LDzTPctEpURSVhGNU2uaaplStsSw7Od7FQSQKtC9TAq0xOv4M92FJWGuoB2fMXfXXKyNHP_aP-8VLFAbxzU9x08zA9ROeuS3ci7Y8uVpRY11TQUJU0aeT_ZZWbkkZc4N4pg-W1m3m_7x44dNMMlDuM1nRHzUJJNbPn7FW-di785dYwALekUHVzTEIEQDoLkFXuWLyq9X85_JtZm9N7VtPaY9i_6kVtq34H1hoLsCQ.WuS0aFAcW4UAg-A5OJmPTUdvPq1ULDqrRuQyo2oqanc&dib_tag=se&keywords=wessel%2Bwerk&qid=1744584328&sprefix=wessel%2Bwerk%2Caps%2C182&sr=8-4-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1) $28. The Powr-Flite Newton is a copy-cat of the Henry canister vacuum but it's a third of the price. It has good suction and large hepa bags. The Wessel Werk RD285 is a flat floor tool that will help the wand fit under lower clearances. The standard combo floor brush that comes with the Newton is likely too tall. The Newton fits standard 1.25 inch tools so adding floor brushes and extra tools is easy, which is important as the Newton just comes with the combo floor brush, crevice tool, and dusting brush. You can also choose a higher end vacuum if you want more features like an automatic cord rewinder and motor speed control. The Sebo K2 Kombi $399 is more expensive but much nicer.

I like Henry but Henry lacks suction speed control. For a plush delicate rug the gentlest cleaning is done with a combo brush, brisles retracted, and you can turn down the suction to the appropriate level. The Miele C1 Pure Suction and Sebo K2 Kombi are 2 canister vacuums that you should look at. Both have tools to clean baseboards and much more. The Miele C1 is a little lighter and quieter. The Sebo K2 is a little more durable and it has a longer cord.

For cordless vacuums I think an effective multi-cyclone system is a must so that the filter doesn't get clogged to quickly. Removable and replaceable batteries are also a must have so that the vacuum isn't a paperweight if the battery wears out or fails. Look for a brand with replacement parts available such as the brushroll, filters, and batteries. I recommend the LG CordZero Kompressor for cordless vacuums and you should add the LG Slim Floor Nozzle with the soft brushroll since you have all hard floors. Overall the LG CordZero is a good cordless vacuum I'd definitely get one of the models with the Kompressor lever because it helps empty the bin without having to stick your fingers in it. LG sells a bunch of different models so I'd look for one with a charging stand, 2 batteries, and the Kompressor lever. One of the Auto-Empty bins would be nice too. Even though the LG is a good cordless vacuum a corded canister vacuum will be the vacuum you want for weekly deep cleans. The Sebo K2 Kombi and Henry Allergy are 2 very powerful but quiet canister vacuums. The hose and tools will be much easier to use for above floor cleaning than holding all the weight of a cordless vacuum. If you walk barefoot, you can feel that a corded vacuum cleans hard floors more thoroughly than any cordless vacuum. So my recommendation is a good cordless vacuum and a good corded canister vacuum. You can get by with just a cordless vacuum but I think you'll really appreciate what a good corded vacuum can add.

I hate vac-mops. They're easy to use but then you must wash and dry all the parts after each use or you'll get mold and odors. Most vac-mops cannot dry vacuum hard floors and cannot clean anything above the floor either. For all hard floors I recommend a good canister vacuum a Miele C1 Pure Suction $279 or a Sebo K2 Kombi $399. You can pair it with a cordless stick vacuum for your small daily cleaning. Pair a regular corded vacuum or cordless vacuum with a mop of your choice. Many people like the O'Cedar Spin Mop. I like the Bissell SpinWave, it's a motorized spin mop with washable mop pads. I recommend a spray mop with washable mop pads if you are lazy. People often criticize the Bissell SpinWave or reusable spray mop for not having enough capacity because the mop pads get dirty, but you can expand the capacity by getting more mop pads and using more than one set per session. Thoughts?

What's your budget? And what is the rest of your flooring? If you have hard floors and just these rugs I'd look at a straight suction canister like the Miele C1 Pure Suction or Sebo K2 Kombi. Cordless vacuums have less suction power and move less air so they always have their brushrolls on to help them compensate for less suction power. They don't have an option to turn off their brushroll because they would be pretty ineffective with it off.

When I moved from bagless vacuums to a Miele and a Sebo you'll notice how strong the suction is and how quiet it is compared to the average bagless vacuum. The materials are thicker and nicer. With Sebos I really like how much I can take it apart and replace almost anything myself. Do try one out in person first, many people prefer uprights to canisters.

I’d avoid the Simplicity Allergy Upright it’s an upright meant for carpets, the spinning brushroll is always on and will fling stuff on hard floors. I’d look at the Sebo K2 Kombi $399 and the Powr-Flite Newton with Turbo Brush $175. Both vacuums have a longer cord than the Miele C1. The Sebo K2 is a very well built and durable vacuum, it competes with the Miele C1. The Powr-Flite Newton is a Henry copy-cat, the Newton can even use Henry parts.

My favorites to use would be my Numatic NBV240NX (probably the most impressive cordless machine I’ve ever used), SEBO K2 Turbo (nice long hose, excellent maneuverability), SEBO E3 (zero complaints, just a very nice vacuum), Lindhaus HF6 (hose is kinda short, but I like the powerhead and the canister maneuvers around nicely), and SEBO Felix (just fits in nicely with how I like to clean). I also get a ton of use out of my Roomba and Dyson V12, though I’d hesitate to call them my favorites. Least favorite…any of the traditional American door-to-door brands. I own around a half dozen Kirbys, Rainbows, Tristars, and Aerus Electroluxes and they all fall into that category of “oh my god I hate using this thing” after 5 seconds of vacuuming. Same with the Kenmore 31150, Miele S7, and SEBO 370 Comfort, just cause they’re so bulky and awkward compared to other uprights. I was also let down pretty hard by my Samsung Jet 75, since I thought it had underwhelming performance (even for a cordless) and awkward ergonomics. And just from a collector’s perspective, I really like my Dirt Devil MVP Swivel Glide (my first vacuum), Dirt Devil Powerlite/Housemate, Miele Art, Eureka Retro Vac, and stainless steel Hoover Constellation.

With only hardwood and vinyl, you could look at the Miele Complete C3 Multi Surface that’s right at the top of your budget.

Top-tier longevity and build quality though. https://sebocanada.ca/products/sebo-airbelt-k2-kombi-canister-vacuum The Simplicty Jill comes in at only half the price of the Miele/SEBO canisters, but is more of a budget machine in terms of longevity/build/quality of life features.

[Sebo Airbelt K2 KOMBI](https://evacuumstore.com/p-12265-sebo-airbelt-k2-kombi-canister-vacuum.aspx) is my recommendation too. It’s right at your budget, but will last you forever and will clean very well. It’s worth the money. This vacuum does not come with a power head and is not compatible with one.

If you care about actually servicing your vacuum Sebo is easier to actually do things to than Miele. The ET-1 head is worth it alone but the ability to work BETTER with aftermarket bags, the serviceability, the quiet suction that's still high power, and this thing sucks on its sides great too.

Miele offers a LOT of different models and it can be confusing when you're new to them. The easiest way to differentiate between the models is by looking at what floor tool, wand, and hose/handle they come with. The difference between an electric power head and a turbo brush is a motor to power the brush roll. A turbo brush is powered by the suction of the vacuum while the electric power head has a motor. This means much better agitation on your carpet and a better deep clean. If you have low pile rugs and mostly hard floors a turbo brush will be fine. The Classic C1 Pure Suction and Turbo Team are often referred to as "straight suction' canisters because they don't have an electric power head and are not able to add one. The Pure Suction comes with a combination floor tool. Google one for reference. A turbo brush can be added to the Pure Suction later. All models of the K3 are the same outside of the color. And their standard warranty is 7 years motor, 5 years non wear parts, and 5 years labor. If you buy from an authorized dealer they can offer Sebo's extended warranty of 10/10/7. I understand these are not cheap vacuums and you need to use points but be very careful on Amazon because I've seen a lot of people get shipped open box returns or defective Miele units. And you absolutely have to register it with the manufacturer or you'll have no warranty protection.

I rarely recommend Miele because, in my opinion, Sebo is better. You say apartment... I always bring up the idea of "future proofing" a vacuum purchase. If you can afford a machine with an electric power head that will still be the right vacuum should you move into a place with wall to wall carpeting in the future it's not a bad idea. If you're looking at vacuums with an electric power head the Sebo K3 or E3 or the Miele Classic C1 Cat and Dog. Otherwise the Classic C1 Pure Suction or the K2/E2 Kombi from Sebo.

Dealers in person will have better prices than what is listed online. A quick recommendation would be a Sebo Felix, but that might be just above your price range. Sebo, Miele, Lindhaus are all gonna be great. IMO after experiencing the maintenance and the mess of bagless, I am forever a bagged convert. I was first worried I'd be changing bags often, but I find I can get a month + out of a bag, where each 'whole house' clean would equate to 8-10 dyson bin dumps. Full disclosure the machine I recently bought was a Sebo canister.

Wattage doesn't matter. Really, it doesnt. Motor design, airpath design, quality of construction, proper design of the cleaning head all factor in greatly. Vacuums are not less effective now, they are simply more energy efficient and don't heat up the room (which is where all that wasted energy went). Even Airwatt numbers can be misleading, because again the floorhead itself is so critical in the performance. High airwattage doesn't matter if it's applied inefficiently to the surface. Avoid shark, build quality is poor and repairability is nonexistent. But yes a corded model is going to be more reliable in the long run. Pretty much any Miele or Sebo corded machine will be a good choice. They are well made, powerful, reliable. Your ikea rug probably advises against using a motorized rotating brush attachment, both miele and sebo's standard floorheads would suit that rug.

The airstorm, while good, is no better than a miele or sebo. I wouldn't pay the premium. Mieles and sebos are also sealed to trap dust. They are also more modern in design and easier to use (they have cord rewind while the air storm does not). There's nothing really bespoke about the airstorm. Underneath the top shell, the power nozzle is the same as ones avaliable for Miele models. The hose and other tools are generic off-the-shelf supplies etc. While it would probably last you a long time and do a good job, you might resent using it. I'd strongly suggest you try one in person before choosing, and frankly I'd save money and go with a nicer to use miele/sebo.

Sebo would be a good choice as an all in one vacuum replacement. But a suitable model would be a little over your price range. And sebos are dry vacuums only. As for the floor washing things, they work pretty well for mopping floors but are not an all-in-one solution in my opinion. I have a similar machine but I always vacuum first before using it. For one, they aren't as good as an actual vacuum. They don't pull dirt from corners well. And they are a complete mess to clean out when you're done if you don't vacuum ahead of time. In that way, they don't really save much work imo. And they don't work on carpet of course. So I'm not sure there's really an all-in-one solution I could recommend. If thoroughly cleaning out the floor washing machine each use is something you wouldn't mind doing, that could be worth a try. But you'd still need to vacuum your carpets with something else.

There are several different ways you could go with this. What would you consider a "long" hose? Smaller carry-able canister type vacs like an oreck shoulder vac could work. Though they aren't hepa, and personally not a big fan of them. Small bags, small motors, bit noisy etc. Slightly bigger machines like a Miele C1 would be great, they are pretty lite but more capable. Hose might not be long enough for leaving the canister on the floor and climbing a ladder to reach high up for example. But for filtration and suction, great choice. Similar in size and characteristics would be a Sebo K or E series machine. A Numatic Henry is a personal favorite of mine for whole house dusting. The hoses are a bit longer than average, the tools are good, and the extention tubes themselves have a nice trick. Unlike most canisters where the curved extension part is the hand grip, and then you place the tools at the end of the straight tube section, with Numatic vacuums you can reverse that. You can put the curved end of the extension at the end with a tool attached while the straight section is what you grasp while cleaning. This gives you the perfect angle for ceiling fans or the tops of moldings and picture frames. Downside with a numatic is the weight and possibly bulk, they aren't very small or lite and might be a struggle to carry around. There are several options as you can see. Depends what you want to prioritize most I think. And side note, I think an extension hose can be bought separately and attached to any of these machines for extra reach if the default length isn't sufficient. Sebo themselves sell an extension hose. Numatic might as well, otherwise I know aftermarket extra long hoses are avaliable for Numatic machines. Miele you'd have to get a little more creative since they don't really sell one themselves, and they use a larger than average diameter. You can get a 35 to 32mm adapter and then attach a genetic extension hose to the miele hose. Only annoying thing is then the miele tools wouldn't fit at the end of the extension hose, so you'd almost need a duplicate attachment set.

Yes, as it looks like you are referring to stick vacuums. I got a refurbished V8 about 12 years ago. The battery started to crap out after five years, so I got a Tineco. I moved the Dyson to my second floor for quick jobs and kept the Tineco on the main floor for daily work (between wood kitchen floor, rugs and carpeted living/dining room). Then I realized I could replace the V8 battery. It came back to life and I was reminded how well it worked. I had to replace the Tineco battery after one year and then when it was dying again the second year, I gave up on it and got a new Dyson V15. It is awesome and worth every expensive penny. I have a Sebo canister vacuum as a "deep clean", but I have been underwhelmed with it. My two Dyson sticks do a great job and I vacuum pretty much everyday. I spent $200 on the Tineco that lasted two years and I hated it. I spent $200 on my 12yo V8 and replaced the battery once. I spent $700 on my new V15 and plan to have it last just as long as my V8 (which is still going strong). (Oh, I also should mention I don't have pets, but I have long hair and so does my daughter. The V15 is noticeably great at staying unclogged with wrapped up hair.)

I feel like there aren’t any bifl stick vacs because bags wouldn’t really be practical, and the better manufacturers know that bagless vacs generally don’t clean as well. FWIW, I have a sebo canister vac for intermittent deep cleans — the thing is crazy powerful, and *will* probably last forever — and a Dyson stick that I use for daily pet hair duty. The Dyson is kind of a joke next to the sebo, but the ease of getting it around the house makes it my go-to for quick cleanups. (The batteries do need to be replaced once in awhile.)

Miele C1 is basically a perfect option for what you’re describing besides cordless, which if you get cordless you loose the ability to get basically anything else you mentioned. Usually I recommend Sebo canisters too but their bags don’t automatically seal like Miele, which usually isnt a problem but you have special health factors with you breaking out in hives so its a bonus, generally though a bagged canister will be good, when a health factor is involved it always should take priority over a convenience factor, it just so happens that bagged fills every other requirement too.

I trust vacuum recommendations on the internet (and Reddit) as much as I do mattress recommendations. The Carpet and Rug Institute, whose board includes members from companies like Shaw and Mohawk who manufacture carpet (https://carpet-rug.org/about-us/board-of-directors/), maintains a certified list of vacuums (https://carpet-rug.org/soa-vacuums/). You can filter by residential and commercial. Of course there are good vacuums that aren't certified. I have no affiliation with them but do happen to own a bagged Hoover WindTunnel (2006), two Riccar uprights (\~2017, one was a gift), and a Sebo canister vac. I can get the Riccar and Sebo serviced nearby and I stock some spare parts, for example the Riccar brush roll has replaceable brush strips.

I dont think it is my mom bought one and within 1 year it had battery and filter issues. Dyson looks cool and neat due to marketing, but when you have to dispose of the dust and dirt, it ends up flying everywhere, which is my main complaint and reason I stopped using my Dyson and gave it away after 5 years. It is also impossible to clean with so many components. if you want a quality vacuum, i would get a Miele or sebo canister vacuum. It is pricey, but canister vacuum compacts the dust and dirt into a bag and you just dispose the bag. No dust flying everywhere. Simple to clean.

My canister Sebo has this same type of head. Granted, I paid more for it than my first car, but it does make short work of, well, the work. I gave up on Dyson after my first upright Dyson crapped out and couldn’t be repaired and I noticed my stick Dyson (much newer) feels like it’s barely working and only holds a charge for like 5 minutes. Just feeling the weight of the metal tubing in the Sebo, I feel like it’s a solid BIFL purchase, so hopefully I won’t have to keep spending a couple hundy every few years. What’s that old adage about buying quality boots once vs a new pair every year?

I fee you! No kids or pets but my long hair and my husband’s curly hair is everywhere. We have tile mostly but lots of low-pile rugs. I will struggle desperately trying to push the hard floor head over the rugs bc the suction is too strong but then I know I’m really sucking that nastiness up! I consider it a workout. Of course I could easily switch the head to the motorized carpet head (think of it like the new lawn mowers that pull you vs the old skool mowers you struggled to push), but I’m lazy. Never thought I’d be so stoked on a freakin’ vacuum, but I’ve started prioritizing tools that make short work of work, even if they’re expensive. My time is more valuable at this point.

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.

Yes, bagless is seen as more economical and more environmental friendly. Although the environmental friendly argument falls apart because it's better to own a bagged sebo vacuum for 10+ years than it is to keep replacing a crappy bagless vacuum every three to four years. I'm not a fan of buying bags, but the sebo cleans better than every other vacuum I've tried. It's also convenient to just throw away a bag as well.

Dyson and other cordless hand vacs should not be used as your main vacuum cleaner, in my opinion. They should be supplemental to a full-sized plug-in vacuum. I would recommend that you look at getting a bagged Sebo, Miele or Electrolux vacuum. If you are on a budget, look for one that is in good condition and test it before purchasing to make sure it works and bag area is clean.

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!

I was in full decision paralysis by the time I got to chat with Andrea (geekvacuums). She was up late answering all my questions, answered all my concerns, and just held my hand as I tried to figure out the best decision for my home and family. I never felt pushed and I was so happy that I could support a small business while getting it shipped to me. I love our local stores but none of them provided payment options that worked for our family. For those who need these options, def research and find a small business who Sebo supports. You’ll be able to get a better warranty than their own site or Amazon - plus you can still use the warranty at your local shops even though you don’t get from there. I am so amazed at the performance of this little vacuum. I wasn’t prepared for our carpets to feel this fresh and new after vacuuming 🫣

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

Indeed, the Dyson is ideal for everyday light cleaning in smaller spaces or apartments. A canister vacuum is more suitable for thorough weekly cleaning of a larger home. Unfortunately, I cannot afford both the SEBO I purchased and a €1000 Dyson. I might consider a robot vacuum for automated daily cleaning and mopping in the future, though higher-quality models are also quite costly, similar to the Dyson, and also made in Asia, which I prefer to avoid.

A Henry should be at the top of your list, since it's affordable and manufactured in the UK.  You can use variety of parquet brushes and the horsehair ones would be great for LVP.  A miele or Sebo would be more expensive and would come with extra bells and whistles such as self retracting cords and better ergonomics, storage.  If you need to clean rugs, you can find a turbo attachment.  These options will last you 15+ years.   If you want something cordless, Dyson fluffy rollers are good for quick pickups and won't hurt the flooring.  The V8 absolute package includes a fluffy roller and goes on sale intermittently to be within your budget.  Keep in mind while it might be a space saving option and convenient, cordless stick vacuums usually last a couple of years before big problems arise, hence why the main recommendation is for bagged, plug in vacuums.

I use both Miele and Sebo and have used the new L1. I think your both correct though. The L1 is a good machine but feels a bit flimsy compared to a Miele of 20 years ago. It’s definitely not a D4 but the tech is cool and I the filtration is great along with the aesthetics. The sub does lean toward Sebo but I think they are both wayyyyyyy better than a crappy shark or Dyson and that’s the most important thing for everyone to know. Also Sebo still has not released the cordless unit in the US so the only good one available is the Miele.

I would caution against buying a Shark. In my experience, what starts off amazing eventually becomes a nightmare, first being a frustrating lack of practical compatible accessories, and eventually leading to a sudden and sharp drop off of inefficiency, irreparability, and lifespan falling well short of cost. We will never buy another Shark product. When we were finally ready to throw in the towel with our Shark, my wife and I spent a couple months studying this subreddit, and eventually planned on buying a Miele, but wanting a SEBO (the Miele seeming on par with a SEBO, but a bit more affordable). After a ton of research and a couple shop visits, and not digging the Miele warranty, but noting how many used and refurbished Mieles were available it seemed that the so-called “honeymoon phase” was too short-lived for too many buyers. So in the spirit of the “buy once -cry once” philosophy, we bought a SEBO, owing in part to the 10 year warranty. While we are ecstatic with the performance of our SEBO, it’s still fairly new to us. But by the time it reaches the end of its warranty phase it will already have proven itself more cost effective than replacing our vacuum with its competitors every 4-ish years. Just my 2 cents (or 2.78¢ adjusted for Canadian currency).

That’s what I thought, too. Here’s my math on that: I spent $1k on my Sebo in March. I added up the cost of the 3 Dyson vacuums( I’ve had since 2017) and the parts I’ve had to replace = I should have bought a Sebo sooner. Models I’m literally placing on the curb tomorrow for whoever wants them. I’ve had it with Dyson’s cheap plastic crap: The upright Dyson (2021), V6 (2017) replaced with V11 (2022). All have had their brush heads replaced. 2 of the 3 are broken again. Not sure what’s wrong with the upright, again. We don’t even use them heavily, I have cleaners in once every 2 weeks.

I couldn't afford a $1400 vacuum if I wanted one but Sebo is way more than 1% gains over a "normal" vacuum. They are also repairable which is a huge factor if BIFL - repair your expensive high quality item instead of buying and disposing X cheaper ones. Everyone has to draw their own line at where X is, before they can't justify the expense. But you did not, in your example, meet any BIFL.

I went I to get a Miele, and ended up getting a SEBO. Love it so much! It’s much more user friendly in my opinion. Before that we had and our Hoover Windtunnel Pet bagged upright (went through two..maybe three in 18 years) and it was a couple hundred. It was really reliable with strong suction. It actually still works great. The SEBO is a dream, though and is much easier to handle.

r/housekeeping • Need your best vacuum recommendations ->

finchflower • 8 days ago

Sure. I liked the Miele too, but was surprised with their background and reputation that they don’t have more thoughtful and user friendly designs. Pros for SEBO The main thing for me- They don’t have the controls on the handle. You have to go back to the main unit to turn on off or adjust. I believe their most expensive model did, but it had a major reoccurring flaw that was an expensive fix. With the motor I think and I can’t remember the cause. I was told this by the salesman/owner. He would have no reason to dissuade me from buying the most expensive model and he wasn’t biased toward either brand. The cause was possibly not putting the bag in correctly. You have to make sure to click it in place or something if you open it. Salesman told me this and I also read about it. My vacuum also allows me to slide the button up and down for different levels of suction. Super convenient if you don’t want it to suck up big items, just dust and hair etc. or if you are vacuuming a rug or accidentally get a Kleenex or sock. The carpet attachment is much easier to maneuver and is able to reach more spaces, even though it covers a similar amount of area. It has a lower profile. I like the bags on my vacuum. They have a big opening, so if I accidentally vacuum something up that I wasn’t supposed to I can just reach in and get it. I also have two very hairy dogs, so I pull out the hair from the bags once per bag usage, which allows them to last longer. If I’m remembering correctly mine came with more accessories and I did buy more as well. I think I liked the attachments better on mine too and likely were more reasonably priced. Cleaning the beaters is much easier on the SEBO. You have to do some work to take apart the Miele and risk damaging it. The SEBO is designed to easily slide out and back in without using any tools. There were some known issues and I’m trying to remember. I think it’s with the hose. Replacing the hose is really expensive on the Miele. Pros for Miele The Miele has a fully sealed unit so is better for air quality and allergies. If I’m remembering correctly the unit was slightly lighter. I spent forever in that store and hyper analyzed and compared all the models of both brands. I did feel like the Miele was slightly more powerful and felt more quality. Cons for SEBO If I’m not paying attention the main unit will flip and push the plug roll up button and act like a toddler who’s done vacuuming. It will pull the plug and roll the cord- all done haha. It can get really annoying sometimes. The next model up had a bigger and heavier main unit that I don’t think would have this issue. Hair builds up very quickly on the beater brush and I have to clean it often. I mean, it’s good in the sense that it’s getting all that from the carpet I guess. I remember the salesman said the Miele had a special design that allowed the hair to not get stuck as easily. * so pro for Miele So, I chose the one that was right for me. I did a lot of research before going in, but mostly on the Miele, because as I said, I was convinced that is what I wanted to buy. I’m glad I kept an open mind and discovered what was best for me. That’s all I can think of off the top of my head. I’m not good with dates, but I feel like I’ve had it for about a year now and still very happy. I love not having to deal with manually rolling up the plug. Both companies have that, but my old one didn’t.

I currently have an upright (salsa and before that jazz) and have also had a canister (C2). But dragging it around was far too obnoxious. I’ve been using a shark for 2 years now as I said and I have yet to have to pull it apart. The Miele I just replaced the belt housing and mount on within the last month or 2 and I’ve already had to pull it apart again to yank hair out. So no I won’t have the same issue. Maybe other issues but not the same one. The way belt on the shark works is different. And like I said didn’t have to do it with my ProTeam or Sebo either. The way Miele has the belt an inch into the roll isn’t conducive to long hair I guess. It sucks it into the housing then wraps around the roller gear and eventually the motor gear as well. ***whoops replied from a different device hence the different name***

I didn’t know you had to be rich to buy the $9 pill box they recommend. Or the hundreds of other products they have under $20. Sorry you can’t afford a quality vacuum or other quality products. But don’t be resentful. Instead, I would focus on increasing your income or learn better budgeting. I only make $40,000/year. I use YNAB and have bought many of Wirecutters Top or Upgrade picks, including a Sebo vacuum. You have to choose what things in life that are priorities and worth spending more on. I don’t think it’s a secret—to anyone with a pulse—that quality cost money. Not always, but usually. It’s okay if certain product is not worth spending a premium on for you personally. But saying Wirecutter is for rich people makes you sound poor and ignorant, and that mindset will guarantee you stay poor for the rest of your life.

Two different design, designs, and vacuums. The Kirby is a direct air vacuum, while the SEBO is a clean air vacuum. What that means is that the Kirby pushes all the dirt through the motor, while the SEBO sucks the dirt into the bag. Very similar cleaning levels of vacuums, much more versatility with the SEBO unit

Honestly I have hard floors everywhere except my stairs. I own a cheap no name cordless I got on Amazon and a Sebo a friend game me when her parents passed away. The cheap cordless one gets more use because it’s easy- it works exactly the way I need it to when I need it to. It’s been 2 years and it’s going strong. When it breaks, I’ll buy another cheap one. As long as I keep the filter clean, I have zero problems with suction etc. it’s has a beater brush head, height adjustable handle and a few attachments- pretty bare bones. I use the Sebo for cleaning the filter of the other vacuum and for getting my rugs “really” clean when I feel like I need to. One day I may have carpet again or deeper pile rugs and then it will get a lot more use. Until then, the cheap cordless is great!

Yeah I worked as a vacuum tech for years and sold Miele, Sebo and Dysons, But Mieles were in for repair probably the most. All the service techs including me hated them. Way over priced and a royal pain to work on/get parts. The Dyson cordless that that I’ve owned for six years now has worked flawlessly and still gets 40 minutes on charge easily. And also for all the Dysons I’ve recommended to people through the years have all worked amazing. Dyson blows the competition away when it comes to innovation, and the overall product experience, especially the cordless game. Will never go back from Dyson. I do really like Sebo! Just expensive and hate bags/low portability.

I'm probably going to get down voted for this but I'd stay away from Riccar. They aren't what they used to be. SEBO and Miele are the ones that get the most love and for good reason. I prefer SEBO above all because they're 100% German made machines, they have a great ecosystem, are easy to self service and parts are readily available. They have great filtration and bags are inexpensive. As for ZeroG, I'd be skeptical of them. They are a small company and every time I look at their website they are always out of stock. They use proprietary bags that are not available anywhere but their own website. What happens if/when they go out of business? Can't get bags for them and the machine is useless. I will say they make a nice looking machine with awesome features and performance. I'd buy one second hand if I could find one but if I paid full price and couldn't get service or parts then I'd be upset.

If you want a powerful vacuum that’ll last decades, get a Miele or a Sebo. Cordless is nice, but you either have a heavy ass battery to move around constantly or you have an underpowered vacuum. Plus there aren’t many battery standards that have stuck around for decades, so you don’t run the chance of needing to replace your vacuum in 5 years just because the batteries aren’t available anymore.

It comes down to wanting something that is built to last, easy to maintain and repair, and buying a brand that stands behind their product. When you buy a Sebo from an authorized dealer, it comes with a 10 year warranty. You can take it to any Sebo dealer and they’ll fix it for free. You don’t get that at a $150 price point. It’s not like 30 years ago when most products were BIFL. If you want something that lasts and has a good warranty, it costs more. If you don’t care if it lasts and you don’t mind replacing it often, spend $150. It’s that simple.

Just as an addendum to other replies, I wanted a Sebo when I moved to my current residence, and asked if the Sebo dealer in our area would take a trade-in. The dealer gave us $175 off for the Kenmore we traded in--so even if you don't feel like you can afford one now, if you generally keep your vacuums in good shape, you may find them relatively more affordable later, with a trade-in.

A Dyson will not last, they are plastic junk, overpriced, over-hyped and junk... Bags have way better filtration, some vacuum brands bags are more expensive than others (like Miele). Most bagless vacuums are junk. Rainbows are a classic, water pan filtration. Old school but can find parts and lots of vintage models, among the brands that people collect. Last forever? Older Kirby, older hoover convertible, older eurekas/sanitares. Anything built before planned obsolescence. But not so old that it's a rare collectible with hard to find parts... Good filtration, noise level and new? Miele or sebo....

Another left field option. As they are both bagged, I would have no concern buying a second hand machine, if in good condition. Indeed, I have done so, twice. If you replace the bag, filters and clean the pipes, you have essentially a clean, refurbished machine. Particularly with Sebo machines, you can replace virtually everything, including the brush bar very easily, which can’t be done in the Miele. My other concern with the Miele is the bag connector which is meant to close when the compartment closes, doesn’t always close properly, so dirt can escape the bag and fly around the compartment and potentially get past the motor filter. I have a C3 and it has done this on mine. It can be worse with fake bags, but it can happen with genuine bags too. It doesn’t happen with Sebo. Additionally, Sebo’s motors are rated for double the life of Miele’s and Mieles are rated at 4 times the life of Shark’s! Miele does have slightly better filtration, but not that you would notice in the real world. If there are second hand Sebo’s where you are, this may reduce the cost for you. The cleaning performance won’t be any less than a new machine and you can keep it performing as new very easily. I bought my second hand Felix for £10 when the family used it during a renovation to clean up drywall etc about 6 years ago. I changed the bag, filter and brush roll as ell as cleaning the hose and it still works perfectly.

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.

From experiences I dealt with in our shop, Sonic Clean machines aren't anything special, it can be a headache finding parts through any of the usual parts vendors, the warranty is not all that good and there's a bit of a cheap feeling to them (despite the claims, brags and marketing buzzwords on their website.) A Sebo has a longer warranty and built much more durable/dependable (100% built in Germany. It's cloudy as to where Sonic Clean even gets their machines source from.) If the soft carpet brushroll aka "beater bar" is your concern, you can trade out the standard one for the soft bristle one. If you are looking for no "beater bar" perhaps consider a canister over an upright. Sebo makes great canisters.

I had never heard of them until I walked into a vacuum store that also does repairs, thinking I wanted a Dyson. The repair guy set me straight. My Sebo is fifteen years old and still works like new. Will probably outlive me as long as they keep making parts. Contrary to what the Dyson ads told us all, bagged is superior longterm IMO. They keep fine particulate contained so it doesn't work its way through your machine or poof back up in a cloud when you dump into a trash can. The bags come with caps that seal so nothing leaks out when you change them. I'd rather swap a bag than have to clean out a gross dust chamber.

Sebos are cheaper to have serviced and parts are cheaper, and their dealers generally seem to be better imo at least in the US. The Miele discount is really good though, and that'd get you a c3 or something similar for pretty cheap. Cordless machines are really hit or miss with reliability. Some people have cheaper ones last for years, and others have their 1000 dollar cordless vacuums die after a year

I've got a Sebo and I love it, got tonnes of attachments and it's pretty affordable here in the UK No experience with Miele but the vacuums have a good reputation Henry's are one of the cheapest vacuums on the market, and also have some of the best suction and durability *However* if you live in the US, don't buy any of these three. These vacuums are super affordable in the UK/Europe. A Henry costs £140 ($180) supposedly over in the US it costs $400-500. If you told someone here you'd paid that much for a cheap Henry, they'd think you're insane

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.

And let me clarify that I realize this model isn’t the best one for bare floors. But it does have a bare floor feature. I have a ProTeam 1500xp (maybe it was the 1200xp idk) I used when the Miele was down for a bit waiting for a new hose and used it at home all the time with no hair jamming issues. And I’ve brought my Sebo home to use before with no issue. It’s really a bad design issue with Miele.
