As Sebo_Fan has correctly pointed out ultralux88, the motor is in the base. Basically it's all in the base.

Hello Turbo, It does look great. My friend is selling this. Howe much do you think he should sell it for? Your help will be appreciated.

Unused vintage SEBO C1 for sale on Ebay http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/261701982852?nav=SEARCH

The switch is down on the head so that all the mechanics/switches etc could be kept in one place. Sebo do not need to have any wiring or additional connectors going up inside the body if they keep all the parts in the head. The cord being removable and replaceable is a clever design and should...

Thanks for the info Marks_Here. I'll look into one of those.

Frontal view of that 'crooked' handle. Currys New Cross South London store

Hi Parwaz, When I posted this pic originally. I meant that Dyson had a moulding issue on their DC40s which meant the handles were all crooked. It seems they are the same and Dyson with their meticulous eye for detail has not noticed this slight imperfection either. It does not affect the use of...

Adamthemieleman, I do not agree with you at all. If you are implying that Dysons break because of UV rays wotever. Please explain why my Dyson DC24 has broken at the handle section numerous times. May I point out that this part is NOT exposed as it's within the body of the machine and I also...

I think I may need to go down that route Parwaz if the Dyson fails. They are too expensive new and I'm buying a new place so wont have as much money as I used to. Saying that, Dysons repair service is £75 inclusive if I ever need it.

Parwaz, No mine was made in Malaysia. There musta been a teething problem as the first DC04 had the side yellow bearing missing, so the head was very wobbly when using. I took it back to John Lewis and got the second replacement machine. This said DC04 on the top and DC07 BRUSH CONTROL on the...

Parwaz, Not in my experience. The DC04 I purchased in 2002, required a 2 or 3 new hoses, 1 new handle, a whole new duct assy (main body) because it cracked and wouldn't keep the handle in (same thing happened to my DC24 - I must be heavy handed LOL). I changed the duct assembly myself on the...

Sad news about DC04 parts being made obsolete! Sebo still provide parts for original X1 machines. I guess Dyson make so many machines. They want you to buy a new machines as opposed to fixing the old one. Quite sad as some owners might not want to 'upgrade'. I better buy a motor for the...

aware that Dyson use ABS & Polycarbonate on their machines but they also use a fair bit of Polypropylene too.

hi-loswitch, Yes Vax customer care is excellent too. A guy at work advised me his aunty had an issue with their machine and they called through and Vax dispatched a new machine to them. They gave him their old one. He tried to fix it and sell on Ebay. With myself I was fortunate to get a free...

Nobody knows the cost of making a Dyson so no point in speculating. I only mentioned £24 I was not asking for a running commentary on here. Vintagerepairer, I'm not sure what your point is. Of course it costs Dyson money to run the business, it costs EVERY single business money to run...

Dyson are not the best built machines but they offer a very good warranty and customer backup. Dyson makes enough profit so providing a few spare parts that cost them hardly anything to produce will not dent their profits! I heard that it costs Dyson around £24 to make a cleaner. If this is...

I don't agree with this post. They are innovative yes, but all manufacturers machines have advantages & disadvantages.

I like bagless because I find them: 1) Good to see what I'm picking up and it makes me feel that I have not spend 25 mins of my time achieving little. 2) I like the 'No extra costs' aspect of things. 3) I like technology, always fascinated with how things work, so cyclones etc...

Marcusprit, SEBO UK has explained to me that the ratings are for emissions and not dust from the machine. The X series gets a slightly lower rating because it lets out a tiny bit more carbon dust, but I have been advised that a tiny increment can make a difference. They reassured me that the...

Great machine. I've used the 700 Felix and it was great, did not notice any huge difference between the 2 wattages. I'd advise anyone against with a machine under warranty that removing the wires in the brush housing, lubricating the bearing block or metal shaft of the handle as it would...
