    I dont want to buy a new vacuum, but I want to be able to use one of the sebos. However the 46" head is too big. So I am going to buy the new 36" head today. I am assuming they are interchangeable between the two as the main cleaning body is the same size. £120 do you think this is reasonable...

    Looking on eBay some bs36 are reconditioned and under £100 do I get one of those or just get the new head from sebo.

    It's not a nilco it's a blue sebo bs36! This one is not in a good way. I think it's been stood in water as the brushroll is jammed solid the bearings have all turned to rust and there is crystallised whatever around the end caps of the brushroll. Also the plastic hinge that holds one side of...

    Yes the locking nut secures it safely. Any issues to watch out for with these? The cleaning head is massive though but I guess it will make light work of the house. Need to get an upholstery tool now but not sure what will fit.

    Hope the bags are the same on the old ones as they are on the modern BS46?

    Sebo BS46 Just an update... at work we have a BS46 about 6 years old (old style one that doesn't have the quick release door under the cleaning head to clear blockages)apparently they dont like using it as the head keeps coming detached from the main body. Ive checked it and I think its because...

    The felix did worse than my dc07 on cat litter. It didn't impress me lol

    Evolution 300 or the SEBO commercial uprights like the BS36 When will these be available and at what price?

    The problem with automatic height is the vac will always sit as close to the floor as it can. The dc07 on my kitchen rugs just ends up pulling he rugs all over the floor when I pull it back! Most annoying having it slightly off the floor would help.

    Dyson on hard floors Yeah they DC07 is good on hard floors just not cat litter or should I say wood pellets. DC07 has a massive cleaner head though so its a struggle to get under the table etc but still a good vac. Had to replace the motor last year as it went bang but as good as new since. May...

    Sebo G1 What do you think to this... Kind of like the idea of manual height adjust so that for hard floors I can set it so that it can just suck larger pieces of debris like cat litter straight up.

    Hmmm just seen this video the x1 seems quite good...

    The cat litter I use is the wood pellet stuff it's bigger than standard granules of litter. A video from some of you would be great to see. Also I think the x1 would be the better choice as instances such as cat litter the hose can be quickly pulled out just to pick the loose bits of litter up...

    Good responses thank you. I particularly like the quick ready to use wand on the x1. Does the felix have something similar? It says the brush roll can be turned off on the felix, would it then pick up cat litter or continue to push it about? The dyson I have doesn't spit it out it's the front...

    I like the look of that sebo . Does it have a powered brush bar for the rugs and landing carpet? How easy is it to then clean the sofa of cat hair by putting upholstery tool on? Would I have to buy a separate hose? I still like the X1 looks a good all rounder.
