I've had my Sebo Hoover for about one and a half years now, and so far (touch wood)! It has never let me down, I may, on the other hand have let it down!
***************FIRST IMPRESSIONS************ As we all know by now, first impressions DO count, however on this occasion I must say that they were disappointing, the Hoover looks bulky and with such dark colours certainly doesn't catch your attention when lined up with a full range of Dyson Hoovers. On this note I must say that I was also very keen to purchase a Dyson, so its impression was quite important.
******************TESTING********************* Somewhat like cars, these days Hoovers can be 'test driven'! Something I found surprising at the time. However when buying from Jessops this proved to be a great asset, I only tested the Sebo however as I had access to a Dyson (1.5 years ago everyone seemed to have one). This was definitely the part that pushed me into purchasing the Sebo. I immediately had my mind made up and off I went with my new GERMAN Hoover, in my German car!! Can see some pattern arising?!
*******************AT HOME******************** First of all I must admit that our house is fairly challenging as fair as any Hoover is concerned, we have two hairy dogs and the house just always seems as though it needs hoovering...again! However not once has this faithful Hoover had a problem.
On arriving home I cast the instructions to one side and began fiddling with all the different parts, the Hoover came generally ready-to-use and was fairly straight forward, this was encouraging and I found a spot that needed a clean...I was certainly impressed. The only fiddly part I could possibly say was fitting the bag; this is clearly the biggest difference from the British Dyson. Some may now doubt this machine at the cost of the bags, however the product is extremely economical and only seems to need the bag changing once every three/four weeks.
On this note there is a warning light that appears to indicate a bag change is required and also one to show that the Hoover is blocked, I have found this extremely helpful over time.
*****************THE PRODUCT***************** The sebo boasts 1300 watts, this can be considered of a high standard in this country and in total holds approximately 7Kg in weight. Although this may at first seem a big weight to PUSH around it is exactly the opposite, the Hoover always seems to move and will just apparently wait for a direction. There is very little energy really required!
The Hoover also comes complete with a range of brushes etc. to assist with all of the small gaps/stairs, these again are very helpful and there really isn't anything that you would need on purchasing this Hoover, apart from bags of course.
The final point that I must draw upon is the fact that the cord on this Hoover is sufficient to Hoover the whole ground floor and part of the stairs (dependent on the layout of the house). The advantage that I have found here is that it saves time!
*****************CONCLUSION******************** Overall I have been extremely pleased with my Sebo and I would recommend anyone considering a new Hoover to certainly consider the Sebo.
Advantages: Amazing on pet hair, lightweight, quiet, easy of use Disadvantages: None so far
...heavy and unattractive.
The Sebo in comparison is a dream. I'm only petite and I found I could easily lift the Sebo and move it around with ease. It seems to glide across the carpets when cleaning and makes hoovering easy and almost enjoyable! It's very fast at adjusting the height for different surfaces and it's so much easier that the computer does it for you. A perfect clean every time.
The most incredible thing for us is how well it cleans. ... ...get everywhere. We've had the Sebo almost a year now and it's never once clogged and has no problem with any of the pet fur at all. It even removes the pet fur smell. Our Sebo came with a large tub of cleaning powder that you can sprinkle on stains and they come out wonderfully. A must for our beige carpets!
Changing the bag is fantastic too. It just clips in easily and when it's full you get a lid supplied with each bag to put on the top and just ...

Advantages: Extremely efficient for all surfaces Disadvantages: Possibly a little heavy to carry upstairs
I have had my Sebo X4 for 9months now & it has had regular use. I have in the past had many different vacs including Dyson & I have to say that this is the best ever. It is easy to use, tools are handy with quick transition to using the extension. Suction is powerful & adapts easily to different surfaces. My home has a variety of surfaces, shaggy style carpet, ceramic tiles & both short tufted & woven carpets and this cleaner copes with all surfaces ...

...buy similar. we purchased a Sebo X4, and not to be dissapointed.My motto in life is, you gets what ya pays for.For starters you dont need to have rocket science knoledge to assemble it. 2 minutes and its ready to roll.Automatic pile height adjuster saves all that back bending up and down stuff. .We have a deep pile expensive carpet, also a long haired german shepherd, after a roll over with the vac, it brought the pile back to its original height. ...

Advantages: Robust, powerful, does the job, high quality Disadvantages: heavier than others
the type of flooring, moving effortlessly between wood laminate, carpet and rugs.
Dust bags for these machines are available everywhere and clip in really easy, although go for the Sebo brand unless you want them splitting all over you. These fill up quickly, but to me that's a good sign. The Sebox4Extra as I say is a powerful machine that eats a lot of dust. The machine contains an anti allergy filter which will help with any asthma sufferers and according to the instructions this makes the machine hospital-grade. Anything worthy of 5 star hotels and hospitals is good enough for me!
The brush easily slides in and out from a hatch in the side making it easy to free up your wife's favourite diamond encrusted necklace, grandad's shoe laces or your daughter's mobile phone charger. The Sebo glides effortlessly around the house. They are ...
