Thank you for your honest and comprehensive review. We value and take all comments and feedback onboard and will share them with SEBO Germany. (We are always listening 🙃)
Why do you sell the Airbelt D4 Premium for around $600 in the UK but $1400 in the US for the near exact same model???
@@sprockkets The cost of the import, making of 110v motors etc
@@heeheeriah UK also requires import, and fundamentally, there is no major differences with 110v vs 240 motors.
@@sprockkets There's a difference between going across one or two countries and a small ferry ride and going across the Atlantic.
@@heeheeriah You don't seriously think that it takes them an extra $800 to ship it across the sea bro?
I'd like to see a vintage vs modern that would be interesting to see
Thank you for mentioning and featuring my son Isaac. He watches you daily, well we are all forced to to be honest lol. All the best for 23.
Great video. I returned my un-opened Shark Stratos and picked up a Sebo E3 premium from my local shop today. Glad I made a much better purchase.
SMART SMART MAN 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thank you Roger for everything! I hope 2023 is a great year! It's amazing how much vacuum cleaners have changed since for the example the 1950s, keep being you!
I agree about the headlight. I have a Felix with the ET1. I do most vacuuming in the very early morning or late evening due to my work. A headlight would be a great addition!
I agree with you about Sebo, they are one of the best brands you can get, I'm also not a fan of bagless vacuums, when you empty them they make a huge mess.
As far as I’m concerned the arrival of bagless vacuum cleaners has ruined the industry and normal consumers cannot afford machines that perform well or last a respectable amount of time.
Yes bagless vacuums I have zero interest in (aside from Rainbow) they are so nasty to use... but I'm majorly surprised the bottom of the bag leaked...are there better bags for these? Maybe aftermarket are better?
Another great video Roger. A suggestion for future videos, maybe a side by side comparison between a modern and vintage cleaners with a big mess test. I agree that Sebo are a fantastic make of vacuum cleaner, still loving my Felix after nearly 2 years of use.
10 year warranty in the states is huge, love selling Sebo
I recently got a Dyson V11 since i'm a fan of vacuums and it works so good! I've been cleaning the house and every time I clean I find more and more dirt! Thanks for your reviews and making me a big fan of vacuums and Happy New year!
Hello Roger! I will miss the vacuum of the month, but understand and support your choices. As for suggestions, I’d Love to see videos with your tips/tricks for above floor cleaning, upholstery cleaning and which vacuums/accessory tools you like best. Also I’d love to please see a video showing the use of all those lovely Vorwerk Kobold VK200 accessories, especially that cool mattress cleaning powder system! The video I’d most like to see you make, could you please show us a detailed video how you maintain and clean your vacuums! How you clean the bagless models, wipe them down, Vuplex (spelling?) and make them look so sparkling brand new! Until I found you here my friend (years ago now) I thought I was the only person that cleans and waxes my vacuum cleaners! 😂 Lastly, would you please make a video showing your most ideal vacuums, mains powered and battery, that are specifically best for hard floors only. In the USA the trend has been hardfloor throughout homes and a large percentage of vacuums don’t perform well on tile, wood or vinyl flooring. Just all thoughts and I’m asking you with respect and kindness. I truly TRULY appreciate you Roger, I’m grateful for your videos and for many years now I’ve truly enjoyed watching you “Hoovering!” ❤ You brighten our days and most importantly, you give us Vacuum Cleaner Collectors a voice and help us feel normal and important. You’re a great person Roger and we all Love you my friend! Any videos you decide to do in place of the VOTM will be appreciated! Take care and you and yours stay safe, happy, healthy and have a prosperous 2023! 🎉💕
Hello, my son absolutely loves your videos and we cannot go anywhere without looking at hoovers, and he knows every single thing about vintage and new hoovers because of you. Thank you for being an inspiration! His name is Reuben and would love to know what the vacuum of the month is?
I have a G4 and love it and tried the E1 out but found the same problem with the hose. I decided on a Miele C2 instead because of its ergonomic ease as well as the brilliance of its SUB20 optional dusting tool. I no longer use dusting cloths unless I’m polishing furniture as I prefer all of the dust particles to go into the bag.
Roger, I think a a wonderful format for this year might be if you perform side by side comparisons between competitive vacuums in the present market.
Sending my best.
Bruce
I just bought one today. I'm in USA and yeah, dang expensive. By the way, the purpose of the tapered hose is to decrease clogging. If something makes it into the hose, it will probably make it all the way out of the hose. Your idea of putting an LED strip in front is a great idea, I wish it had that.
I agree with your point, the way the remote control works is not the best to stay diplomatic. I'd say that the old sliding control would be significantly better!
Hi Rog. Instead of vacuum of the month, how about comparing similar machines each month so. Feb ~ Cordless models. March ~ Bagless. April ~ Bagged. May ~ robot etc etc, :)
Like the idea 💡 he could call it the month in review 👍
really good idea :)
Bagless are garbage.
@@tomasvon8187 Thank you Tomas.
@@elliotcarver6606 Thanks Elliot ✌🏼
Just bought one of these to replace my Dyson v8 it’s night and day difference. It’s so much better and actually feels like it cleans the carpets much better. I’d highly recommend this vacuum
SEBO USA told me the handle's brush on-off switch was introduced in Australia and then to the USA. It works quite well on my E3, though the earlier hoses had some plastic fitment issues. The hose switch shown here is very similar to what is used on the D4 -USA E3's used a slider switch with a definite off position. Yes, the E3's tapered hose has proven a handfull in cramped spaces (very stiff and easy to trip over).
Sebo Germany have just introduced brushroll on off switches on the handle and I expect the UK will follow soon.
Just got one of these in the USA, and there is a power switch on the handle. I’m hoping it can handle the FUR of an Alaskan Klee Kai (Mini Husky) who lives inside, and loves the couch. What a shedding monster!
Sebo have just launched a newer version in Germany with the power head switch on the handle, but we haven’t got them in the UK yet.
I'd like to see some strange or unusual design features highlighted that were innovative, quirky, silly or terrible.
I don't mind what era or brand.
For example different ways of indicating a bag is full, different ways of separating/collecting dust, different ways carpet ride height can be adjusted, strange vacuum cleaner accessories......you get the gist 👍
I'd like to see some *vacuum maintenance/light DIY servicing videos* - particularly on your favourite vacuums that you feel deserve being really well-maintained to give of their best, if you'd be up for that?
This, in the growing spirit of *taking care of things and repairing them,* rather than jettisoning them as people can often do. Fits well with the current quest for greater *sustainability.*
There are several videos of that type on my channel with more to come.
Awe Roger, I'm bummed about vac of the month not continuing. I always looked forward to a monthly surprise.
But for a different idea, I was thinking maybe a series titled battle of the vintage vacs and see which one prevails as the winner?
A powerhead switch on the handle would indeed be a decent addition. Oddly as you may know the K3 has a slider so you can see the power setting rather than the up and down buttons..
I agree the hose takes some getting used to. Seems to want to coil up during use. I think a regular hose (instead of a tapered one) would work best.
Nice machine sorry they dont distributed in my country, but still i have a Miele and its fantastic.
What country do you live in?
@@ibaisaic Mexico
@@ibaisaic Mexico,
- The only local brand its Koblenz Mexicana (a Mexican Branded local manufacturer use to build a 60's Eureka vacuum variation now manufactures in conjunction with Haier or Electrolux AG). Manufactures Koblenz (houshold and Commercial cleners) and Masisa (Commercial Cleaners only)
- Cleaners imported and with support (local warranty one year) are: Miele and Dyson.
- Cleaners imported without continuos support (not always available bags nor accessories) Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Filter Queen, Rainbow, Shark.
- Imported without any local support Kenmore.
- No longer manufactured locally Electrolux (IEMSA a mexican factory from Electrolux AG), Volta (Commercial cleaners from IEMSA) Panasonic (Panasonic de Mexico now only an importer company), Sanyo (Sanyo de Mexico no longer exists), Philips (As Philips Mexicana no longer exists).
- Sebo can't be bought either through Amazon or importers they just answer to any request "This item can not be send to your location". Sorry Sebo hehehehe.
Some kind of monthly tips or tricks could be nice or vacuum service hints. I will miss the vacuum of the month but with the working being done around your home can understand using the Sebo to clean up after that mess as well as using a wet/dry or other Numatic machines. Don't need constuction mess in a bagless machine.
interesting vacuum roger! the shape seems a little similar to the old eureka can ham model.
maybe a series of vs
The all of the vacuum cleaner, I would like to see you used a cordless and a main vacuum. That would be fun i think. And have a great day.
I was really tempted to get it but apparently in time it suffers from leaking suction at joints, where head connects with wand and hose. It's a problem with all Sebo's cylinders. You can hear air hissing and it stops when you press parts tighter together.
A bit shocking that they still haven't come out with any anti hair wrap. So what that you can remove brush roll if there isn't any grove to remove the hair. Instead hair is really tightly wrapped and it takes ages to clean.
I've noticed this too with the air leaks
Maybe battle of the vacuums. Have a bracket of like 13 vacuums and each month there is a battle. Winner moves on. Top 3 seeded vacuums receive a “bye” and automatically make it to second round. Second half of the year you’ll start to have the winners facing each other.
You put a big mess on the floor (carpet and hard) and grade them side-by-side.
Have a variety of vacuums, old/new, canister/upright, cord/cordless
I like it
I would like to see an occasional repair or refurbishment video, but I understand that would be hard to do as a monthly series.
Unhinged? Who said that about our Roger?!?
Hi Roger, Happy New year! How about a comparison video between two similar vacuum cleaners each month!
I like my D4 but he ET-1 needs an update. It needs to spin faster/have more power. I do think the Sebo would outclean anything out there if the PN was a real good agitator.
I really like the PN of the rainbow E2 Black. It spins fast and has reserve power also.
The D4 tips over on me far too often. Maybe because its too large for my house. I have a decent sized home but only 2 rooms that have quite a bit of open area besides the kitchen. A longer hose is the real fix though.
In the UK and Europe the ET1 is fitted with either a 175 watt motor or latterly some models come with a 90 watt brushroll motor. In my experience both versions do a great job though the 90 watt models -introduced to keep energy levels within EU compliance - are more prone to stalling under heavy load such as deeper pile combined with high suction. My experience matches those seen by Roger here with his 90 watt example. I have not experienced such problems with the 175 watt version which copes with everything I can throw at it. Brushroll speed needs to be carefully considered and controlled - too high and excess friction may burn or melt fibres, too low and agitation will be insufficient to dislodge dirt.
Please do a whole month of Hoover machines! I'd love to see that!
I have used a Rainbow E series for 20+ years and found it to be amazing but expensive to buy and heavy to cart upstairs but phenomenal suction and obviously all the debris even micro particulate get captured by the water. Its paid for itself at least 10 times cleaning up spills especially red wine and a litre of Gloss paint, I used several bottles of turpentine and actually sucked it all out before detergent cleaning and surprisingly didn't explode. Things are breaking on mine just wear and tear and Im not paying the ridiculous distribution prices so Its time for an upgrade. There are a number of Water hoovers out their could you recommend one that isn't sold in your home by a commission hungry salesperson. ??
Over the years....there have been a few times in my life that I've done something to my lower back....something I lifted a certain way...and it's always one lower side or the other.. never in the middle....and you pretty much have to walk around like a 90 year old person to do anything... slowly... because if you move a certain way... the pain is crazy.... I don't know if in my case it's a muscle or what...and it takes a few days to go away...I think I've done this maybe 10 times in my life.... UGH.
I acquired an E3 just yesterday. Pleased to report that the version I received here in Pennsylvania in the U.S. has a slide on the handle to control the power level and a switch to control the brush roll!
same here. Have you noticed any fine dust build up in the bag compartment at all? mine does same as in the video. Even noticed it behind the pre-motor filter.
What about doing your monthly vlogs showing how vacuums have developed and changed over the decades starting with some of your earliest models and working up tthrough your collection to end in December with some current models? - in any event I think the theme of your monthly uploads should be something that you find interesting and will enjoy doing.
maybe vintage brands vs newer machines of the same brand , for example a hoover turbopower vs enigma evo or something like that , great vid
I would love to see a review of your tabletop dishwasher and a Miele upright vaccum cleaner.
I do enjoy Hoovers based on my own family had or a good Electrolux and some of surprised vacuums
I find it such a strange thing that SEBO doesn't go to HEPA type filtration. Its so ubiquitous, and just that little extra bit of filtration certainly would help SEBOs come up to par with companies like Miele.
I thought Sebo had superior construction to Miele?
Sebo do offer Hepa type filters for some machines in some markets. As I understand it they have not proven popular with consumers as the filter medium makes the filter more expensive to replace and the service life of the filter before it reduces suction due to clogging was lessened. I feel that Sebo offered the Hepa filter options only to appease those customers who demanded them - not because Sebo thought they were needed or improved performance significantly over S-Class filtration which traps almost all dust and allergens anyway.
@@sebo_up_and_down As far as I understand it, Sebo consumables are by far the most expensive I've seen of any premium vacuum company save for Dyson. HEPA Media is so ubiquitous that simply by the virtue of the scale its produced at means that it can be very inexpensive and at this point most companies have bags and filters that are as clog-resistant as you can realistically get. I'm just guessing its Sebo just being a bit proprietary with their filtration. Not saying S Class is bad, but it is inferior to HEPA media.
@@AfterDark33 Sebo originally designed their filtering systems around a European S-class standard which required three elements, ability to stop 99.9% of particles of 0.3 um, an electrostatic filtering layer and an effective seal to prevent filter bypass. This was a standard used by hospitals to ensure clean air for operating theatres etc.
So called Hepa filters are usually made from media designed to stop between 99.95% to 99.97% of particles of 0.3 um. However there is no standard for how well a a Hepa filter is sealed. It is a media standard only.
In practical use the difference of using an S-class system compared to a well designed Hepa system are negligible in my opinion.
Both systems will stop 100% of particles of 1.0 um with typical dust and household allergens being composed of particles larger than this. Both filter systems can not stop all particles such as 0.1 um viruses or bacteria though some will be attracted and stick to any electrostatic layer present.
Here in the UK Sebo Ultrabags are typically £1.50-£2.00 per bag. By comparison Miele HyClean bags are typically £3.00-£4.00.
A comparison of filter prices is harder to gauge due to the large range of options.
I would expect to pay upto around £30 per year for filters for a top of the range Sebo cylinder. A comparable Miele filter set upto around £40. I don't think these prices are excessive and the genuine bags & filters are good quality.
My knowledge and experience of Dyson products is fairly limited as I've never owned one and only used one briefly after doing a repair for a friend. I was far from impressed and I'm not surprised that their filters etc are expensive.
@@sebo_up_and_down Thank you so much for this detailed explanation!!
I’d love to see hoover v Electrolux uprights of certain years or vintages.
cool vacuum
You should get every single numatic out that you own. And you could use 2 numatic when the workers are in
Good morning Rodger. I am after a Sebo cylinder vacuum, but want a small machine, which model do you recommend. I did have the D4 was too big. I know some have air driven airheads, which would suit me. The problem with thenD4, it’s electric head would get jammed as I have some long pile carpets. Cheers. Have an awesome bank holiday.
no, the full control handle comes on the k4 volcano.
How do you turn it on.... it's just a blue light
Seems like they could use the same slider switch as the Felix.
The push button power controls seem to have arrived with the advent of the 'boost' function. Prior to the 'boost' models coming to market all the Premium machines with an ET1 had the Felix style speed control in the UK and Europe. I suspect that to save re-engineering of machine and hose connectors and using their usual wiring configuration Sebo could electronically control speed and boost more simply using this button layout. I too prefer the Felix type switch and I wouldn't mind a brushroll control on the handle rather than on the ET1.
@@sebo_up_and_down - I concur. I would already own a SEBO X5 or X7 if it had the ability to turn off the brush when on hard floors, but it appears that the X series uprights are single motor units, so with no separate brush motor, there's no option to stop the brush while the vacuum is running.
Proudly unhinged here! All the best humans are!
I think once a month you do an extreme mess test. With different vacuums. I haven’t seen a big mess test in a while.
Roger, really like vintage vacs. If you could do that once a month
Ok if you're not going to do vacuum of the month I think you should do trio of the month something old something new and something battery operated (and all vacuum), you're not getting away with saying your old, the hoover is new and a remote is battery operated! 😂
Maybe a vintage VS a modern machine
or a getting a machine you have not use in a while back out and visit again
I like these vacuums but in the US they are insanely expensive for a vacuum. Over $1,000 at most places.
That's a real shame that their bags are letting fine dust through... I thought they were on par with Miele. Easy fix for them if they care to address it...
I was very surprised to see dust in the bag chamber. I've used one Sebo cylinder K3 Premium in my home for many years and never seen dust like that. I concede that Miele fleece bags offer better filtration than Sebo fleece but generally the Sebo ones are still excellent and significantly cheaper to replace.
I agree. The dust you saw in this video is only a fraction of the actual dust that went through the fabric of the Sebo E3's filter bag - just look how dirty the bag is on the *outside*. And unlike on a top-notch upright vac, there's no 'final' HEPA filter on the exhaust to stop that fine dust from being blown around the room. For such an expensive vacuum system, that's not acceptable.
@@sebo_up_and_downI've noticed this too and test driving the k3 and E3 back to back from my local dealership. K3 bag compartment clean and the e3s was dusty. Is the k3 a better option then because now I'm torn?
You cud do vac Battles
What's the best cylinder for hard floor
I like numatic more than dyson
Please show all the vintage cleaners you have already recorded.

STAIN OF THE MONTH.
Over a thousand dollars and they’re still worth it. 🤦🏻♂️ my shark didn’t last 18 months and good luck getting anything done about that. They deny every warranty claim. According to them if it stopped working it’s your fault. Don’t even understand the point of offering the trash warranty they do offer. 🙃
I went and paid the grand for it as it’s cheaper in the long run being it has a 10 year warranty.
How often would you replace the brush bar? I’ve had mine for two years now and it doesn’t really lift the pile of the carpet anymore?
There is a measurement to take on the brush roll. I forget what it is but it needs to extent at least an 1/8” past the bottom of the nozzle. That measurement might be in the manual.
Over time these brushrolls do show signs of wear. The bristles themselves don't seem to shorten significantly in length but can soften, bend or splay so cleaning performance reduces. This wear is monitored by the electronics of the machine and the yellow or red brushroll light will begin to flicker a lot while the vacuum is in use on carpet with a worn brush. This alerts the user that it is time for a new brushroll. New genuine Sebo brushrolls are not expensive and easily sourced so I suspect you having a swap to a new one will reinvigorate your grooming.
I will say it is not unusual for the brushroll light to flicker on and off in normal use depending on floor type but if the light stays more on than off and the carpet height adjustment is correct then a new brushroll is certainly indicated.
@@tekjunkie28 hold your hand flat or a card of some kind if the bristles don't reach then they are worn
@@sebo_up_and_down Hello may I ask you for advice? You seem to have expertise on Sebo's. I want to buy a Sebo canister vacuum for my cleaning business. Which model would you recommend?
@@sevendeadlychins Personally if I were to have a cleaning business in need of a cylinder type machine I would probably go for a Numatic. If it has to be a Sebo then the D8 Professional is an excellent machine. However purchase and running costs for your Sebo will be significantly higher especially with high use in a business. In a domestic environment I would always go for a Sebo.
So I guess a “washing machine of the month” series is out of the question? Haha
What about an “attachment of the month?”
Not like an attachment you have to use all month…but more of a spotlight on an attachment.
the sebo e3 is now £514
If you buy it direct from Sebo which is the most expensive way of buying a Sebo vacuum unless they have a promotional offer. It’s £419 from other retailers.
@@ibaisaic would the warranty still be valid? I have heard from other places that if you do not buy direct from Sebo or a verified dealer, they won’t honour the warranty.
Sebo do state that their warranty is only valid if you buy direct from them or from an authorised dealer. I have seen the E3 Premium from an online store that states they are a Sebo authorised dealer with a 5 year guarantee selling for £419. Personally I have never had to use the guarantee on any of the Sebo models I own, though I have had to claim a repair on a Miele powerhead model I have.
@@ibaisaic i know, I have had a Felix for 8yr and it’s only needed new bags and filters but it’s always nice to have that piece of mind/notion that if anything DID go wrong, I have protection. I’m selling off a few vacuums in my collection and decided to use some of the money from them to get a new main “daily” machine. Is the e3 worth it or should I get the K3? Since its cheaper. Thanks for the help 🙏🏻🫶🏼
The E3 is a newer model but is let down by the bulky hose and inconvenient power buttons. The K3 Premium is easier to handle with a slide control to turn the machine on and off and vary the power. New versions are coming out with different controls on the handle, but it may only be the addition of a powerhead on/off switch. If you decided to import a Miele from a different country as you were thinking, then it’s unlikely it will have any sort of guarantee.
Waaay toooo expensive for me
Really disappointed with this cleaner. I bought one for my mum about a year ago but have just found out she rarely uses it because it's so poor picking stuff up.
The suction isn't that great when you just put your hand to the hose without any head on but it's strong enough to pick stuff up. As soon as one of the heads goes on there's just not enough suction - the ET1 (featured here) being worse than the standard head. I've checked for blockages etc. but the thing's practically brand new, it just seems like the design of the head must mean that the suction disperses between the hose and where the roller is.
If you're looking for a new cleaner - AVOID!
