thats because it shines out of the electrolux internal hose 


Michael, I wouldn't even say that. I have yet to find an absolutely perfect vacuum - even my beloved Sebo and Lux 500/Twin Turbo's have their flaws. It's all a matter of balancing out the pro's and con's. For example:


Dyson pro's:


No bags to buy

Full stair stretch hose

Brushroll on/off controls

Good suction


Dyson cons:


Messy to empty

Filters have to be maintained

Poor construction

Expensive to buy

impractical tool setup

poor brushroll

near impossible to clean under low furniture


Sebo pro's:


Not overly expensive if you shop around

Easy to maintain

Easy to take apart (brushroll, handle, tools and replacement parts easilly available

Quick use tools

high filtration level

large capacity bags mean emptying less often

reliable and well made

vacuums flat to the floor for cleaning under low furniture

Brushroll is fantastic for grooming/deep cleaning of the carpet pile


Sebo con's:


X series lack brush controls

cleaner prone to falling over when using the hose on stairs

X seies can sometimes be awkward to manuever

Felix exhaust filter not all that easy to replace.


Overall for me, Dyson has 4 pro's vs 7 cons whereas the Sebo has 8 pro's vs 4 con's.


All about the balance :)
