    SEBO E1 Airbelt Eco 700: First Impressions

    They are innovative, much the same as dyson. Thinking of ways to make cleaning that bit easier. Its in the detail which is really impressive. At least they don't churn out the same model and only change say for example the colour of the bags or try to skimp a few "pennies" making the handle out...

    Isn't it just.. Beautiful?! :-)

    Land of opportunity? Not anymore. Stop fooling people trying to make out the US is still top dog. The country is riddled with problems. I have travelled there, I have family there. It is a nice country but it isn't Europe. I don't know where Dan or sptyks have travelled but their complete...

    SEBO E1 Airbelt Eco 700: First Impressions

    Great review and your videos are good. This model looks really rather beautiful. Looks like they have improved on certain designs, which is good. SEBO's are pretty much perfect.

    Time for me to stick my ore in once again lol. The Sebo Felix is certainly designed for hardfloors. As well as the array of combination attachments such as the combi, you have the parquet nozzle, but also the Disco head, which polishes and vacuums at the same time, and it really does work, I...

    Running around shooting each other? A debt which is several times your GDP? No free health care? A faltering education system? A president which is the worst rated in US history? Yeah seems great.

    Yeyy. Democracy, that is what it's all about. Thank god I live in a genuinely free country; the oldest democracy in the world. Very good looking flag isn't it Marcus !

    Well the Felix is the vacuum used as the icon for contemporary vacuums on this site, among other things they are one of the most popular bagged vacuums you can buy in Europe, but yes you do have a right of course to dislike or like something, but to say the felix is not a good vacuum is...

    But Dan doesn't like anything that isn't a Kirby. But then again, there isn't as much snob factor with a Sebo than a Kirby. I mean Buckingham Palace and the White House use Sebo vacuums and they must have tonns of different carpets, but hey what do they know.

    It is very Felix-esk looking. I don't know why the Felix is such a terrible vacuum all of a sudden. This does look beautiful though. If I was in the market for a vacuum in this criteria, that would most likely last decades and an all round cleaning system, I would get one of these in a...

    old dyson adverts 1993-2009

    Volkswagens are brilliant vehicles. Beautifully built and very refined. I have an A6 3.0 TDI now, had an A3 before. I grew up with a B5 97' Passat 1.8 20v. My dad had that car for about 6 years, longest he ever kept a car, think in around 2007 he changed it in for an A8. Those BX's were very...

    I am fascinated by your profile picture. Why the Citroen BX ?

    Felix, unplugged

    You have nothing to worry about Mark. You are a spring onion my dear :3 Well even $22, that around £12 so that about the same as over here, although you can pick them up over here for £8.95 from John Lewis, so a couple of quid in it, nothing to really complain over.

    Felix, unplugged

    Well there is the numatic George which is a 3 in one, which will vacuum, sucks up spills and shampoo carpets, with proper water extraction, which are made in the UK. There are several other multifunctionals. And no, the are used in commercial settings and actually work. I however have a...

    Felix, unplugged

    Amazon and John Lewis sell genuine bags and they come within a couple of days. If you have a box of eight, if you are on your last one that is the time to buy a box, but that is common sense, hopefully. Like Mark said, around £1 per bag and the latest bags are closer to Miele quality and they...

    Oh my god Mark you are treading very dangerous water there ahahaah ! But yes how could I forget, "superior US built, better than anything from Europe". I am silly :p

    Felix, unplugged

    Why is the Felix a bad vacuum? I have never had problems with the bags leaking and my one at the moment is nearly completely full.

    Why are Oreck's so rubbish?

    My simple mind looks at an Oreck as an incredibly over priced "vacuum" cleaner. Is it a carpet sweeper with a large bag? It generates little suction to do any deep cleaning and obviously no above floor cleaning. This is fine but it really doesn't justify its price. They should be at least a 3rd...

    Felix, unplugged

    Ahh, that sucks, but it should go back together no problem. It is a relatively simple and straight forward vacuum to disassemble and reassemble, providing you obviously know what you are doing.
