Nice, manufacture website always make it harder than should be to compare their products.
This video was so helpful- I got more out of it than I did from my local sebo dealer unfortunately. I was really torn between the e3 and d4. Despite the indifference of my “salesman”, the maneuverability of the d4 is what really sold me when I saw and tested it in person. The 4 wheels and swiveling hose makes that vacuum. No tipping and easily glides from floor type and over transition strips. The e3 felt quite unstable and I knew it would drive me nuts. I actually preferred the slider suction adjustment on the e3 but hey, can’t win them all. I don’t have 3k sq ft home to clean, but I feel confident it was the right choice for me. Can’t wait to receive my d4 and get to cleaning!
Now you KNOW it's good video when the manufacturer puts it on their website!!!!!
It's on SEBO website?
@@PerformanceReviews ya
Great vacuums. Purchased a E3 a few years ago and have never had any problems
Thank you so much. I have been thinking of buying a Sebo canister but could never find a good comparison video. Yours is perfect.
Just got the D4, first impressions are awesome. Can’t believe anyone actually complains about lack of power with this thing. We have very thick carpet and even on the lowest setting it doesn’t bog down.
Going over a large heavy thick pile wool rug was definitely more challenging, but moving it to position 2 cured that.
And you’re right about the noise, I’ve never heard a vacuum as quiet as this thing is for the power it has.
My wife has already decided she wants a Felix to compliment it 😂
Apart from the price I’m not sure what’s not to like about it 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for this Video plus your review(s) of the Sebo D4 Premium. My Electrolux 6500 finally died after 25/26 years. I picked up a D4 at the local dealer a week and a half ago and it's been great. the 40' cord, giant bag and the fact it was on sale were the clinchers!
just bought a k3 onxy works great so far. We bought a Riccar upright and returned around Christmas. This vacuum is to supplement our central Vac that i got tired of pulliing the 30' hose out and was a pain to get around the house. This is much easier. Only downside seems to be the head doesnt do great on bathroom rugs that are real long.
Lots of good information here if you are a Sebo customer. I've owned the Air Belt C3 for over almost 20 years. Been looking to to purchase another for a small to midsize apartment. This video was very helpful in recognizing the model that is best suited for the square footage I have.
His videos are outstanding. Helped me so much in my business.
Read through reddit yesterday, watched this video, went to our local vacuum store to ask some questions in person and get a feel for them (I have some hand pain, 'easy maintenance' is not always easy for me!) and purchased the d4 for the extra capacity and how super space age and cool it looks. ;). But mostly for that extra bag space. Thank you for helping make the decision a more informed one! Our retailer was the first person I've heard of in the industry that actually prefers an upright for her own use.
Do you remember her reasoning for why she prefers an upright?
I just found out about Sebo vacuums today. I need a new vacuum and have always had Miele. I see very good ratings with the Sebo. Thanks so much!
Sebo makes some of the most reliable and highest quality vacuums you can buy I personally have an X5 and it is a good vacuum I also have et1 on my central vacuum if I had to get a portable vacuum I would buy a Sebo D4 premium it is one of the best canisters on the market
Btw I think the slider controlled hose is a bit more straightforward and better in my opinion
I'm in love with my E3. But I disagree that a swivel at the vacuum base is unneeded. I would definitely benefit from a double swivel like the D4. The hose gets twisted sometimes.
Thanks for your input.
@@PerformanceReviews thanks for making your videos!
I was going to say, you forgot the C series. But then I realized that's now discontinued in favor of the D series. :))
You’re in Colorado right?? Thinking about buying a vacuum and can’t figure out if I want a canister or upright. Went to a new shop off Arapahoe. And saw the Sebo but didn’t try any other brands
Thank you! This is so helpful. Seeing how the vacuums move was really good information to have for making a decision.
@Performance Reviews:
Think the difference between the 45" for the D4 & the 42" for the E3 translates into any noticeable performance difference? I assume the sealed doesn't really matter as long as the working vacuum is solid.
Can you add the particle counter test to all of your vacuum reviews? It's an interesting test and would be nice to compare across all the products you review! Thx for the great videos!
Send me a particle counter. ( You might cry when you see the price of one)
@@PerformanceReviews I've got enough to cry about lol. Me and my expensive ideas...
If I ever had to by a new vacuum it would definitely be a Sebo or a Henry
@Performance Reviews Thank you for this! The SEBO website feels very commercial versus consumer so as previous comments suggest...it's much harder to determine which model is best for my needs. I am torn between Miele and SEBO and ask for your suggestion on 1700 sf home, all porcelain tile, 3 dogs, 4 cats. Some dirt tracked in from dogs but mostly fur is the clean floor issue. For Black Friday I plan to buy a Tineco Steam Vac/Mop so I want a top of the line bagged, canister vacuum to pre-clean. Thanks for your insight!
I see it has been a year, but I just found out about Sebo. I am a Miele person, looking to compare the two. Not sure what I am going to do
Bought an E3 for residential cleaning business with the ET-1 head. Current split is probably 80/20 hardwood to carpet with the low pile rugs as well. Do you suggest using the ET-1 with the brushroll off, or would it be worth getting the Premium Parquet Tool and removing the front bristles as I have seen alot of people do? Will the Parquet tool clean the low pile rugs good enough or should I switch back and forth? Or should I stick with the ET-1 head and turn the brush roll off?
The best review ever
Just discovered your channel and I am very grateful for the time you've taken. I'm replacing/upgrading from Kenmore canister vacuums. Even though I love the Sebo E series, the K series with a kombi floor tool is in my budget. I'm also seriously considering a Henry Pet H160 based on your videos. Would you recommend one over the other?
Great information. Is there any annual estimate for bag and filter replacement?
Made in Germany or just desginged there and manfactured somewhere else?
$34- $60 USD depending on usage
Do you get a commission if we buy one from one of your favorite stores let me know.
Are the rollers on the bottom of the k just as good as the e
What type and brand of carpet? Is it high pile?
Thank you so much, extremely usefull!
I always debated about getting canisters as all my life used upright but seems the canisters are much better than what they used to be. I like my upright but i hate that i cant get it under bed or some furniture where a lot of dust/fur builds up and said furniture a bit heavy to move. Been thinking about switching to canister since i been told they are easier to use these days compared to older models
Canisters are far superior for overall housecleaning! Get the E3 and you will be amazed at the number of cleaning jobs it will handle.
@@sevendeadlychinsdo you find the lack of swivel and the 3 wheels to be annoying? Some comments here have mentioned tipping over and difficult to maneuver compared to the d4.
I have carpet in a ~2K sqft house except linoleum in the bathrooms and kitchen. Would you suggest one of the SEBO uprights for me? I know there's a lot of personal preference involved, but I need suction/cleaning performance due to having pets with fur& dander. Thanks!
If you're looking for performance you're going to get more performance with a canister than an upright. I would suggest the E3 or K3 canister.
Hey man, I hope you're doing okay. You sound out of breath. 😞
Great content
I'm at a very high altitude we don't have a lot of oxygen up here see the FAQ video.
ruclips.net/video/ta64uC6LEWQ/видео.html
Good review, I would also consider # and type of pets in house too… we have two Alaskan Malamutes and several cats…and would require a larger volume bag even tho sq foot of house isnt that large…
Yes the D4 is definitely for you then .
I used Miele vacuums for years. I decided to try a Sebo D4 vacuum and although the suction is good, the swivel hose allows the canister to flip over on its back during use. I would never recommend the D4 vacuum because of this fact.
Thanks for this video! Are the older (2014) D4 vacuums the same as today's version?
Yes
@@PerformanceReviews a friend is selling a used sebo D4 (one owner 2014 model not professionally serviced but good working order). What would be fair market value?
How well does the d4 work as far as cfm? I’m comparing to an upright vacuum like a Kirby or even upright SEBO
Kirby's don't have very much suction power. They have an average amount of CFM. You'll probably notice double the performance if you're coming from a Kirby. Especially on carpet cleaning with SEBO since the brush roller stays consistent with not having a rubber belt like Kirby that constantly wears.
As far as CFM goes you're probably going to get similar numbers if not a little bit more with this design. The working vacuum is more than double with this machine to give you an idea.
@@PerformanceReviews For a 2200 sqft house 50/50 carpet/vinyl, which is better-- e3 or d4? I have 2 cats.
I would go with a E3 in a smaller house like that.
what are your views on the Soniclean whisperjet C2?
Seems to be pretty comparable to the Meile or SEBO
🤦♂️ Not even close to on the same level as any of the European machines. That's essentially a relabeled Bissell
@@PerformanceReviews are we thinking of the same one?
Its allegedly made in Germany
@@PerformanceReviews and if it is basically just a rebranded Bissell, it seems like it would be a great candidate for you to do a review on so those like myself don't get taken in.
Their website is very misleading if this is the case.
@@PerformanceReviews well, I had ordered that vacuum before I asked you this question and it came in today, I used it about an hour all over the house.
I have no way of measuring the suction and certainly don't have the feel you do in judging it but to me as the average consumer it seemed pretty decent.
I can definitively say that it is indeed VERY quiet.
The retractable cord is 26' long and retracts slowly.
It has U-15 ULPA filtration.
Bags seem nice.
Its small and light at 11 pounds, the wand is metal and seems well built, it tracks behind me easily while vacuuming.
The floor and upholstery attachments are decent, the brush and crevice tools might have their place but overall kinda sad.
If you only had hardwood and tile floors then you wouldn't need anything else but maybe the nice horsehair brush for $16.
They have 4 attachments you can purchase separately that all seem very good, a turbo carpet brush, turbo upholstery brush, round horsehair brush and long crevice tool.
It works very well on hardwood floors, and fair on our oriental rug just using the floor attachment.
Overall the quality looks, feels, sounds much better than any "Bissell" that I've ever used.
The company swears up and down that the machine is made entirely in Germany. It states it on the box, on the instruction manual and its emblazoned right on top of the machine "Made in Germany" complete with a German flag.
The list was $399, it was on sale for $299, and I had $113 of reward points on a card that I used so ended up paying just $208 shipped to the door.
Has a 7 year warranty on motor.
For the price I don't see anything that would have been any better.
I think it would be a good vacuum for you to review.
I've seen 4 separate reviews that claim they purchased a Miele C1 and returned it, bought this machine and preferred it, could of course be total BS but they seemed like legit reviews.
@@nunyabizz50 Thank you for your comment. I am in between the Miele and Sebo. I read a great review on the C1, but this is making me think twice. I don't have either that I can try before I buy where I live. thanks anyway for your comment
So the D4 is the best Canister but the controls on the Nozzle are worst just to justify the otherwise useless LED indicator!? I was sold on the D4 but this detail realy bugs me to be honest.
They're in the process of moving the brush roller on and off switch to the handle on all of their models.
@@PerformanceReviews sorry, I meant the controls on the handle. The Slider is just a way better solution than the buttons and with the Slider an LED indicator is obsolete.
Thanks for your fast reply though!
Cheers from Vienna Austria
Leider haben alle EU Modelle Knöpfe statt einem Schieberegler. Mir gehts genauso wie dir. Die Bedienung und der starre Schlauch (E3 Modell) sind echt ungünstig.@@fabianstanislaus5925
Any idea how long before the D 4 model comes out with the slider on the hand piece ( like the K & E series) instead of the buttons? I’ve just found these vacuums & definitely think it’s between the En& D for me, prefer D but the push button isn’t my favorite.
@@PerformanceReviewseta?
What’s a good cheap canister vacuum
That's used vacuum prices
Trying to decide between a Sebo canister and a Felix for housecleaning business.
If you would like to use your vacuum for dusting and stuff like that as well, then getting a canister would be a better option imo
@@IWishIDidntExist2333 what vacuum is there now
Update: I purchased a Sebo E3 and I love it so much I cry with happiness every day I get to go to work and use it.
Do any Sebos have suction control on the wand? If so, which?
See the section where we're talking about the handles.
Thanks to this channel I just bought a Sebo K2. I was irritated with myself for spending so much on a vacuum... until the second i turned it on.
HOLY CRAP 👍👍👍
What is the difference between the Airbelt E3 premium and the Onyx Collection E3?
So Onyx edition machines are sold at certain level dealers with an extended warranty.
@@PerformanceReviewsAny differences other than the extended warranty (and color)?
The K3 is the only Sebo that's compatible with a hepa filter?
As of right now yes. But the microfilter that sibo uses on the rest of their lineup is appropriate for 90% of allergy suffers
I have the sebo essential 5 for my business and a dyson v11 for my home. Although they were both over $800 the two don’t compare! I have replaced the Dyson battery AND main body Twice in the 4 years I have it, while Sebo I only buy bags and filters!! It’s German quality for years versus Chinese buy and Throw away your money! Never again
Don't compliment Dyson they don't make things in China. Dyson makes them in Malaysia.
they need to add a light. only reason that I have not bought a D4 yet. Keep hoping they will add the light
That would be wonderful
Sebos are such great vacuums. I sell many of them and over the past 3-4 years I’ve only had 3 come in for issues. By the way not sure if you know or if anyone commented this but the E3 has a one touch cord rewind so you don’t have to hold the cord rewind button. Surprisingly the D4 does not have that feature even though it is the top of line machine. But it was also designed a few years prior to the E3.
Does sebo do Bagless vacuum??
No they make quality machines.
I wish they sold the E series where i lived 😔
Where in Carmen sandiego is that?
Upside down land (australia)
Same (also from Aus). The only vacuums SEBO sell here with an ET-1 is the K3 and Felix. In fact they are, as far as a know, the only 2 vacuums sold here by any brand with a powered floor head! (besides stick vacuums of course)
@@ethanbezz Hoover has their Action, Allergy and Regal vacs with a powerhead. Minor differences; but basically the same vacuum.
Still prefer Sebo though.
I am also in Australia, and have also found this disappointing. They sell a Sebo D8, Which I think is a D4 without the ET1 Power head, it comes with the turbo Head instead. you can buy the ET1 Head separately, but that makes things very expensive. i’m thinking I may have to get the Felix, even though I would prefer to get a D4.
ET-1 and ET-2
Over $1k and I have to forever buy bags which cost around $5 each
All vacuums require Expendables. Bagless vacuums require filters which end of costing more yearly. Not to mention the extra hassle having to wash machine out
@@PerformanceReviews I have been using Dyson animal 2 for 6+ years and the only hassle is that I have to clean the cyclone with another vac after each dumping. There is no need to replace filters so far.
High end bag vacs cost way more in the long run.
ET-1-ET-2
Sorry, I should’ve listened. You kind of cover that.
SEBO canister vacuums are weird. They are strange looking. Why would anyone buy a SEBO over a Miele? Still, because of how quirky and odd SEBO's are, I'm fascinated by them. Miele's are a dime-a-dozen.
Sebo’s are more reliable, better warranty, lower cost for attachments, lower cost for the expendables (bags and filters), lower cost parts, and you can serve the power head yourself. If you have 10 categories to compare Sebo beats Miele in 8, and Miele beats Sebo in 2 categories. We have retired a lot of Miele’s at 300-400 repair cost, but so far we have not retired one Sebo,
I have both and love both. It’s like comparing a Ferrari to a Land Rover. Both are engineering marvels and made extremely well. The Sebo is just built tougher. I abuse mine terribly and it runs like a TRAIN.
I have the D4. The bag is large but I can fill it up in about 3 weeks. I love the quality of the Sebos but the cleaning ability is Dismal.
Im trying to think of a scenario where one could actually fill that bag in 3 weeks. Because I vacuumed at least 2,000 square feet of carpet constantly with 3 kids, cats, and a long haired golden retriever and that bag literally lasted MONTHS between changes. Are you aware of how full they can actually get before needing to be changed?
I wish to know this too.
@Tekjunkie28..Dismal, how so?
@@sts1542 the et1 just lacks power. Also there are several small items I have sucked up and they get stuck in the hose because there isnt enough air flow
@@christinemccullough5608 I can fill up my extra large rainbow bin in 1 room of pet hair even though you can't see it. I also have had a grass kill off in the side yard. Dogs track in a fine dust and that dust is from clay soil. I am in the process of putting in a new type of grass that will regrow and repair itself so that should fix the issue with that.
I have the D4 canister the black onyx and I got it for Christmas but I like to downsize to the E3. And I'm thinking about selling my D4. I found that the D4 is just really too big for what I need
What size is your house? I am torn between the E3 and D4. Our house is around 2500 sq ft. I like the swivel hose on the D4 but wondering if the nimbleness of the E3 makes up for that.
@@jjphresh7058 I think the E3 would be better. I find the detour to be a little bit more Awkward as far as when I would use it. I'm happy that I sold it. I went with a sibo X7 upright. And I have to say I really like that a lot. I also bought the extra long hose for it and I'm very happy with it
@@jjphresh7058 I have also tried the E3 and I have to say I really like that it's more nipple like you said and I think it's easier to control around the house. But I didn't think I was kind of like an upright and when I tested the upright I like the upright better
@@ThePrime206 Thanks for the prompt response! I have a Miele upright which I love, but it is discontinued and in the shop for repair. Which is what led me done this Sebo canister vacuum rabbit hole. Lol
@@jjphresh7058 I understand that. Lol
