Sebo X5

Pros: Durable, powerful, quiet, extra easy to use. Ultimate bare floor machine.

Cons: Expensive, right rear wheel can scratch baseboards, edge cleans only on right side.

The Bottom Line: Powerful, easy to use and maintain, lifetime durable. If you frequently do bare floors and carpets, this is a must have machine! Expensive, but you only buy once.

Review: This German-engineered and manufactured upright is incredible in the precision efficiency of design and function. Your eyes will boggle as you assemble this unit in about two minutes right out of the box without using a single tool! Changing bags is an ...

Pros: Cleans all surfaces very well. Very durable, repair-free.

Cons: No headlight - can't think of another downside!

The Bottom Line: This is a great vacuum; although pricier than the big box store vacs, they are more like throw-away models. This one is trouble-free and is a high performer.

Review: I've had this vac for several years and love it! I was tired of the utensils falling off my old vac and of the wands coming apart mid-use. This vac is easy to use, self adjusts height-wise which means it adjusts to those dreaded areas on plush ...

Pros: ease of use, warranty, durable, quiet, cleans well.

Cons: cord doesnt retract.

The Bottom Line: Unless you absolutely have to have a bagless, buy this vacuum. It would be hard to find an easier more effective vacuum at this price.

Review: Sebo X5 review After our old vacuum died last week, I found myself on a vacuum hunt. I went out fully expecting that I would buy a Dyson but I ended up with this machine instead because after comparing the two, I liked this one much better. For ...

Pros: Simple, easy to use and well built.

Cons: Cleaning wand not long enough

Review: This is a thoughtfully constructed machine. Everything is simple and easy to use. Although it is not self-propelled, it sure feels like it is. The way it automatically adjusts down to a bare floor from a carpeted floor is very cool. Bags are easy to ...

Pros: Excellent for carpet, great filtration, repair free, excellent for pet hair

Cons: No suction control, brushes wear on hard floor, short hose, stiff brush attachments

The Bottom Line: If you have mostly low pile carpet you will love this vacuum. If you have hard floors buy a canister.

Review: This vacuum is very well built and designed, has very few repairs, and maintenance. It was designed for durability, but because it was designed for durability there are features that can affect its ease of use. I really did love the way it adjusts to ...

Pros: I cannot think of anything good about these machines.

Cons: It's heavy, it doesn't suck, it clogs ALL the time.

Review: I don't know if it just me but every time I use a SEBO it completely craps out on me. It ALWAYS gets jammed with dust where I am always having to clean out the lint trap and taking out the brush to cut out all the garbage that collects in the brush. It ...
