    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    Well the particular person (not on VL) that said the X7 and X4 base plates are interchangeable was incorrect. The X7 base plate has a completely different fitting. I suppose if I’m desperate, I will have to drill holes but that would void my warranty. I suppose I could buy another x4 base plate...

    Lindhaus help

    The prices on eBay are crazy for the used Diamantes! Sebo also tends to have a high used price. I believe it sold ( I almost bought it), there was a Diamante on there for $150. I rarely see the 380 for sale on eBay, I usually do a search every night.

    Lindhaus help

    They definitely have a special build quality to them! Lindhaus feels more industrial than Sebo, especially the massive brush roll bearings. I don’t understand why they don’t do the copper inserts for the screws like Sebo. A dealer told me that he doesn’t stock much Lindhaus anymore, because...

    Lindhaus help

    Thank You Panasonicvac! I oiled the front bearing and the noise was gone when I ran the machine for a minute, then the noise came back. I would say a few more applications of oil and running the brush motor and the noise will be gone.

    Sebo D4 One Month Update

    2 Month update The machine has been excellent. I did purchase the Sebo parquet premium floor brush, and it’s my favorite especially without the front brush. My bag is about half full, I am most impressed that I don’t have any smells from the dog hair in the bag. My Kirbys and Mieles always get...

    Vacuum collection pictures?

    I certainly will certainly browse occasionally, that’s the only thing wrong with the machine.

    Thoughts on Lindhaus Diamante and Comparison with Sebo

    I have indeed seen their video, the vacuum and the lady are great to watch! I’m going to get the felt plate, I’m sure it will be better than the regular plate.

    Vacuum collection pictures?

    I bought that Kenmore brand new when they first came out in 2013 or so. They weren’t in store yet, so I ordered it from Kmart. I was between that Kenmore and a Bissell Digipro, I went with Kenmore because my family always had good luck with them. I probably should have spent the extra $20 or $30...

    Thoughts on Lindhaus Diamante and Comparison with Sebo

    I thought about that too, wonder if it would pick up well? I might get the felt plate instead, I have a lot of Pergo floors. I suppose the felt would be the nicest thing to be touching floors.

    Thoughts on the Sebo Balance A1 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner?

    I do know that they make a cordless version of the softcase.

    Royal 880

    I had also ordered this bulb in the picture, this one worked! It’s all coming back to me now, I bought this same bulb years ago at our local vacuum store. This bulb has oval shaped connectors instead of the round ones on the 1157. My socket is a bit loose so I wrapped some tape around the top of...

    What do you use as a bench vac?

    I have used the Shop Vac I use in my car, but it doesn’t filter well. I then used an old hose on my Electrolux Olympia. If it’s minor amounts of dirt, I’ll use my cordless Metro Vac. Usually I use a Dc07 as my bench vac, mainly for convenience. I just plug the DC07 in and uncover the end of the...

    Thoughts on Lindhaus Diamante and Comparison with Sebo

    I agree, I would never say that it’s a bad machine, but the Sebo definitely gives more. I think this is partly why many Lindhaus dealers can’t sell their stock, customers generally prefer Sebo. I will say that I used the Diamante today and I liked it a bit more than my initial opinion. You do...

    Lindhaus help

    I did have the hood off yesterday seeing if there was anything wrong with the belt. I was starting to lean towards the problem being the brush motor bearings. I put some triflow in the rear bearing, and it did possibly reduce the noise. I’ll have to try the front bearing as well. I’ve been...

    Thoughts on Lindhaus Diamante and Comparison with Sebo

    I had originally ordered a new Diamante back in February 2025, but due to a long delay I purchased the X4. I’m definitely glad I did not pay the MRSP for the Diamante. The Diamante definitely possesses the usually high Lindhaus quality, but it also carries the complaints I have with their...

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    I am currently waiting to receive the base plate with holes. I can nearly confirm that my issue is that the nozzle is sucking down to the carpets too much. I ran my X4 without the hose and the height was good.

    Thoughts on the Sebo Balance A1 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner?

    I really hope Sebo stops while they still have their reputation! Rebadging a Chinese cordless product was a very poor decision, Sebo customers want the very best! Sebo needs to continue making their legacy products and allow their competitors to essentially self destruct (Tacony and slowly...

    Royal 880

    Well the 3in 1 motor oil recommended by Jeff (hygiene903) worked great! I did get the OEM spec Sylvania 1157 bulbs and my machine blew the bulb instantly. Here is a video of the great sounding 880 after the oil! I ran the 880 and got my Silverado out for the floors and furniture, as a person...

    Lindhaus help

    I am leaning towards the noise being the belt from sitting so long without use. I’m not sure if a few uses will smooth the belt out or should I replace the belt?

    Envirocare Bags

    I’ve only bought one package of bags that were Envirocare, they were paper Panasonic upright bags. The first bag I used broke in the machine after one use. I have not tried their hepa bags. I believe that I have also heard somewhere that they make the Tacony bags for the Vibrance/Symmetry.
