Sebo Hoover - which one?

[mckenzie]

We've had a felix pet for years but it's finally given up the ghost.
We no longer have cats; we now have a dog but he doesn't moult.

Should we get another felix pet or is the X4 upright better do you think?

TIA

It depends on what your house is like. The Felix is better if you have lots of different floor types and the X4 is better for carpets.

Bugger. I've just got home with the X4 but we have amtico in the kitchen and hallway!

You do get the extension hose with the X4 though which makes the stairs and sofas easier to vac.

Give it a try, it might be ok. But there's no way to turn off the brushroll on the X4 so it can scratch hard floors.

Thanks Rabbit.
We've used it today and the carpets look cleaner than they've been in years!

Brilliant! Our Sebo is YEARS old. Used to belong to my in laws before they upgraded (to a newer Sebo) and was passed onto us when we got our first place. Still works as well as the day it was new!

Sebo sell loads of additional tools on their website and I think you can get a hard floor brush for the X4. Might be worth getting one of these to use on your kitchen floor?
