He doesn’t pressure a sale whatsoever! I was going to buy an X7 but he explained that it wasn’t needed for my use.

Very interesting. What do you mean by "old money".
There is some generational wealth in the area, but still a rough area.

That makes more sense, thanks.
I have a further discovery! My blue brush roll had been worn down by a difficult rug I bought! The issue has nothing to do with Sebo!

A rug broke your vacuum?

I reckon you should use a green bristle brush roll next. I had a problem with a Windsor Sensor S12, basically a Sebo G4 with a three contact commercial grounded cord where it would show a belt jam red light and shut off any time I tried to clean the deep pile plush carpets in our previous home. I spent over an hour on the phone with a tech from Windsor testing things and found nothing wrong. Frustrated the vacuum, which I had just bought, could only be used to clean the indoor-outdoor carpet in our garage. A lot of money for a garage vac ! But the local Sebo dealer suggested I try the green bristle brush roll. To my relief that solved the problem. It might also solve yours.

I hope that works.
I actually have the green brush roll as well, and it makes the X4 significantly easier to use on the rug. I ordered the green one after I bought the rug in May. I was afraid that I might wear something out quickly switching brush rolls constantly. I have a simple solution, I’ll primarily use my vacuums that have a manual height adjustment and do well on the rug, I keep two that work well on that rug in the same part of the house.
The rug did not break the vacuum, it wore the brush roll down prematurely. The more that the brush roll wears, the lower the head will go, thus giving me the hard to push experience on my other hard wearing wall to wall carpet. When I get my new blue brush I will officially compare the wear, it did not wear enough for the brush light to come on.
