"Speaking strictly from experience, I'm allergic to all the things and I never sneeze or get watery itchy gritty eyes when I'm using mine, which I normally always do."


"The filtration is seriously THAT GOOD. ... The bags are HEPA material, then there's another HEPA filter that follows that, and another HEPA filter after the motor, and the suction power is absolutely ridiculous! ... Still I feel like the bags are quite thick, and that extra tower filter in there that catches anything loose in the bag chamber makes a big difference in air quality... Essentially it's filtering through the equivalent of two bags vs 1."


"and excellent filtration."

"it's so NICE to throw the bag of stinky (I have a golden retriever XD) dog hair into the trash and not have it funking up the whole vacuum, forever."

"When we ripped out the last of the (very) old carpet in our house I was shocked that there was practically no dust/sand underneath - I feel like that was solid evidence that it had been doing a good job keeping up."


"I'm surprised you get pet hair in there - I honestly never do. ... We have cats, and a big dog, and a lot of foot traffic and it really keeps up well."

"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)"

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.

Must be the manual adjustment SEBO, the automatic does not seem to have that issue, if it is raise it up a notch

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 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 🫣

The Miele electrobrush is substandard and the pieces break off, making it unusable. To replace even a tiny wheel is $55 for a single piece.

No the Miele vacuums have different warranties. The POS that I purchased unfortunately came with a 1 year warranty. Buy a SEBO instead.

Don't buy the Miele! There little pieces break and to replace a single screw or tiny wheel is $55 each. I have a Sebo (German vacuum as well), which has never broken down piece by piece like the Miele. Highway robbery! The Miele vacuums are crap.

Sebo is widely regarded as the best vacuum brand for performance and durability. Their residential vacuums are resold as Karcher for commercial customers. If you only have a carpeted area to clean then the Karcher S12 which is equivalent to the Sebo G4 is one of your best bets. It's considered one of the most durable vacuums around with huge bag capacity and excellent filtration. New ones will be $600-700 but you can get used ones in very good condition for under $250 on eBay. Every part is servicable, the roller is removable, bags are pretty cheap.

none, save your money and get a vacuum that isn't overpriced and unreliable like every shark is, for $400 you can get a really decent spec miele or sebo, both of which are fantastic for carpets

Dyson V 15 and Sebo owner with two super hairy shorthairs living in a cement floored warehouse with lots of Turkish area rugs. Not sure what your obviously perfect feline does but life with my kitties has its challenges. They are dirt attractants to say nothing of the charms of litter in bare fee. Couldn’t live without the instant availability of a cordless and the 15 is a solid performer in all areas. My rugs do look cleaner after a full Sebo experience but I’m lazy and place is big. I have come to realize you need more than one vacuum, unless you have only one flooring type , don’t have to carry up stairs or navigate a labyrinth of hallways and live in under 1000sq ft.

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

Twenty seven years ago we purchased a Eureka canister that broke within a year. We ended up with a Miele. That thing still runs and I use it to clean my unfinished basement twice a year. My new Miele canister lives on my first floor for hardwood and my Sebo upright in s upstairs for carpeting. The Sebo is heavy but it’s a beast that will definitely outlive me. I now have two very cheap cordless vacuums that I use like Dustbusters. I’ve never understood why people buy that Dyson crap. There are complaints everywhere. There’s a difference between a company that spends money on engineering and quality and one that spend it on advertising. Dyson spends it on advertising. I’d vote for Miele everyday.

I like to add, SEBO is another great option. One can be more available than the other depending on location. Big thing is bagged vacuums are just better. Everyone switching to bagless was just a straight downgrade

It’s one of those but once cry once things. A Miele or SEBO will last much longer and do a better job than a cheaper option.  It pays for itself in not having to replace it in a couple years.

I’ve heard Miele customer support is getting to be not so great. I bought a Sebo, had it for two years, expect to have it for many more. My mom’s Miele is 10+ years old, 4 cats, 2 birds, still going like new.
