    In Memory of Our Sebo oracle - Narayan Kundu

    Still in shock and still can't believe this sad news. Thank you to Sebo_fan (Nar) for all your help, advice and knowledge since I've known you about SEBO. His knowledge and conversations of all things SEBO and vacuums in general will be very much missed. Will miss our chats with you the Oracle...

    In Memory of Our Sebo oracle - Narayan Kundu

    Your welcome Mike, I thought it only be right/fitting to post something on behalf of us all on his SEBO FB page he spent time setting up and administering about SEBO where he shared and promoted all things SEBO especially SEBO UK.

    Welcome vorwerkfan. Nice to see another Vorwerk Kobold fan! Love my Kobold VK150 as much as my SEBO Felix.

    Are cordless vacuums overrated?

    I personally think cordless vacuums still have a way to go before they fully replace corded vacuums. I've been thinking of getting one for quick daily pickups! I think the current generation of them (UK) encourage you to change the way we clean by dealing with mess as we go and do daily quick...

    New Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    yrs very true plus (depending on use!) less time collected dust and dirt sits in the machine maybe another less prominent reason too! I do like the VK200 and would like one but happy with my VK150 for now. It's nice to know if I did want to buy the new VK200 the tools and accessories I already...

    New copycat Dyson cordless

    The V8 is very quiet it surprised me didn't expect it to be. I also noticed the power in the motorised head as I was using it which I wasn't expecting! Was impressed by the new overall design and new bin emptying mechanism too on the V8. I have said this before as a little prediction of my own...

    New Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Personally for me and I would say for a percentage of Vorwerk owners and protential buyers it was what the Kobold could do that attracted me to it and seeing what it can do in the home demo. Of course that's not everyone perception for some as mentioned it's the amount of tools and attachments...

    New copycat Dyson cordless

    I got to try the new Dyson V8 at John Lewis Department Store the other week and they seem to have listened to its customers from previous versions! The motor sounds quieter and smoother in operation. No high pitch noise! They do seem to have started to make some of its products quieter like the...

    New Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Thank you Nar. Yes it is expensive agree there, for me it was an investment as a home cleaning system and the benefits that came with it. They are not for everyone. People are use to onboard tools and a hose on uprights or convience of using a canister. Plus they want quick all over cleaning...

    New Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    I believe in some Countries they offer a non electricified hose for the Vorwerk. The actual electric one is not that heavy to use in general as it currently is but would make the vacuum bulky/heavy if it was an onboard hose. It's main use is for the Polsterboy attachment that has a motor driven...

    NEW Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Great to here that Marks_here, your VK130 looks great. EurekaPrince, I see where your coming from. I was a bit skepitic when I first got my VK150 but I have to say the bottom fill bag works well for Vorwerk with the design they use on their vacuums. Vorwerk seem to like this setup and continue...

    NEW Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    I was thinking that sebo_fan to meet new EU regs the thin opening on the sole plate. Very true it must deep clean a the 4 A ratings it has. The new design ethos is to simplify the design to make it even more user friendly and for maintenance too.

    NEW Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Ooo that's great to know spiraclean thanks for finding that info out, not read through the UK manual yet! Hence the rubber blades on the brush bar! The bottom fill bag is very effective even on the low settings. The airflow through the machine is great with this setup and as spiraclean says...

    NEW Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Sure are, I'm loving the new design ethos Vorwerk have taken with the new generation Kobold. The new power nozzle looks great. I'm told it turns the brush bar off when it detects hard floors! I'm assuming if that's the case the rubber blades on the brush bar must be for carpet cleaning along...

    NEW Vorwerk Kobold VK200

    Sebo_fan is right similar to other dry powders on the market. It's very soft and not gritty, damp with a fresh but not over powering fragrance. Not to damp you can't walk on it once you brush it into the carpet. Bit like snow!!!! Leave it after brushing in fir a minimum of 30 minutes then...

    UK Electrolux through the years

    Sure is Chris, really loved using my Gran's always had the tools out to vacuum the sofa and stairs! Always emptied the bag for her, changed the belt and filters when needed! It was a no fuss switch on and go vacuum. My only regret was I wished I'd of saved it when my Gran changed it for a...

    UK Electrolux through the years

    Great Electrolux collection you have, used to love using my Gran's 502 which she had for many years without issues. There is something I love about the Electrolux vacuums from years ago that just says 'simplicity and ease of use'. I'm not a big fan of canister/cylinder vacuums but the z345...

    Sebo X4 Pet ECO BOOST

    Thanks Matt8808 for confirming which dusting brush you purchased. Might get the larger one for my Mum's X4 Pro. Why of course it has to be a genuine one :) Thanks for confirming about the power, didn't think there would be a noticeable difference just thought I'd ask from the general pubic...
