Another version of the Hoover Sebo Copy

[turbo500]

James gives me one of every new model he makes, and has done

James Dyson doesn't even give away cleaners to Dyson employee's, so I highly doubt this is true.

I can smell something here, and it ain't pretty.

 

[dysonman1]

Nope. You are wrong. James sends me one of each new vacuum he places on the market. I do not 'go to the store and buy them'.

Unless you know me, and the Vacuum Cleaner Museum, please don't spout off about things I say. I have no desire to get into a war with children on this forum.

 

[alexhoovers94]

Huh, big ego!

 

[bagintheback]

Tom Gasko is the curator of a vacuum cleaner museum, and James Dyson is all about engineering progress and a major part of vacuum cleaner history.  Their relationship makes perfect sense to me. Can we please not argue? 

 

[alexhoovers94]

no, no arguments..

I was just stating that I wasn't convinced. The Hoover Historical center is all about History and engineering, right? But James wouldn't send the owners Dysons, would he?

James Dyson

If James Dyson was into anything but making a buck he would design a bagged machine. Bagless vaccums are unhealthy, cheaply made and leak dirty air.

 

[sebo_fan]

Dyson was NEVER interested in bagged vacuums but rather developed the cyclonic system to stop buying dust bags. You keep saying the same old thing, Vegas - but other members on here like Dyson in the same way that we all have a fair share of brands - please respect that instead of getting on your high horse.

Foolish

People can be brain washed into anything. Sebo fan is a clear example of that, he actually believes the Sebo X4 is a deep carpet cleaner. The Dyson keeps vacuum repair shops in business so there is a positive factor to what in my opinion is a plastic, cheaply made piece of garbage. You can always pile up your trash in a pile on the kitchen floor than put it in the trash can later, this will save kitchen trash bags. People who like to breath in the dust while emptying their dyson or come up with some creative way to seal a bag so they do not inhale the dust are foolish.

I had a Dyson for one day and took it back because it is a messy, unhealthy mess. Dyson does make an excellent fan thou.

 

[sebo_fan]

Well put your head in the Dyson fan and give us peace.

If the SEBO is good enough for hospitals for deep cleaning, then its good enough for me.

In the meantime if you can't think of anything else to say that is factual and not out of your behind, then cease to be.

And unless you actually sleep on PVC covered sheets on your bed, you breathe in dust ALL THE TIME.

Ignorance is bliss until you choke on it.

Hospitals do not have Have shag carpet.

The Sebo is one of the most solid built easy to maintain vacuums in the world.. It is used commercially because it is fine for the flat carpets in hotels and office complexes. And for your information, hospitals do not have carpet because it would be to difficult to disinfect. The Sebos brush is not the best choice for deeper shags because it does not have a powerful brush roll.

If you do see some limited use of carpet in hospitals, again it is commercial, flat carpet which works fine with Sebo's weak brush roll.
Sorry you live in a Sebo-fog Sebo-fan.

 

[sebo_fan]

If you look at my profile, you'll see I had quite a collection. I still have other brands and for your information, UK hospitals have a mix of deep shag pile to lino and hardwood. Best if you actually witness the hospitals in the UK rather than try the generic route. But then I'd expect that from you - since you appear to lack factual evidence and only go on hearsay of others.

 

[alexhoovers94]

I have never seen shag carpet or even carpet in hospitals in the UK.
The only carpet they might have would be in the offices, which I highly doubt as that would still be treading germs everywhere....Ryan, what is this thing you have with shag carpet in commercial buildings?! I can honestly say that the only carpet I ever see in commercial places is that glued down, flat arse shit.[this post was last edited: 8/9/2013-08:04]

Actually, the Sebo X4 has a good brushroll. Stiff brushes like scrubbing brush bristles that lift the carpet up to release more dirt. They may not be a Hoover Activator, but they're better than most of them on the market.

 

[alexhoovers94]

The Sebo does indeed have a good brushroll.

The only thing I don't like about modern deep cleaning uprights is that the brushes are SO stiff that they can over time ware your carpet out instead of making it last longer.
Hi-lowswitch - like you suggested the Activator, for e.g - the Activator has long, quite firm brushes, but not overly stiff like todays machines that can damage carpets, the Activator didn't need super stiff brushes as it relies on beater pads, something the new brushrolls on the upright deep cleaners lack!

 

[hi-loswitch98]

The 2 Electrolux Uprights I own, The Boss Power & a Cylone Power HEPA Power, they both have firm brushes, right length but not overly long or stiff. They both groom the carpet quite well, but the Cyclone Power is the Boss (see what I did there) at picking up hair. In the bin there's always a massive hairball.

Sebo Brush roll

The Sebo brush roll last forever and is simple to change. Perfect for janitorial work. Compare it to a Miele, Panasonic or Riccar and it loses badly.

 

[compamac]

Sebo-Fan is right...

<span style="font-size: medium;">Every hospital I went to even in the US which is where I live HAS carpet. AND they use Windsors which obviously is just like a Sebo.

</span>

 

[vegassucks]

The difference is

I actually worked in a hospital and am not just a brain dead Sebo fool. There is sometimes carpet in office and waiting areas. Where I worked used Lindhaus, and yes Sebo is. A great option for flat glued down commercial carpet.

 

[vegassucks]

Carpet

Carpet in Hospitals in not the norm and no I do not attack out my Behind like so many Sebo fans. Could you imagine how difficult blood would be to clean off carpets all the time?

 

[sebo_fan]

Do not attack? Don't you mean talk?

As you will see from the previous replies sent by other members on here, others would beg to differ to your opinion regarding carpets in hospitals and - and rather than continually knock me down - prepared to watch, read and listen. If you can't do that, then you're on the wrong forum.

Furthermore, hospitals use all kinds of textures including that rubberised flooring that can be hard to clean. The polishers are useless - the machines that my local one uses is amazing - a Karcher upright that washes the floor, cleans the floors, scrubs the floor clean and not that noisy. Click the link if you want to LEARN.

As for your SEBO brush roll, well they don't last forever which is why the models do carry a brush warning light. If you actually owned a SEBO you would know that, or any less the Windsor Sensor series that offers the same LED panel. UNLIKE Miele, SEBO further offer TWO different kind of brush rolls, the green one for delicate flooring and the normal blue one. UNLIKE your Miele, you can't change the brush roll any less either for cleaning it off if pet hairs get wound up it - with the SEBO/Windsor, it's just a simple press of the button and pull out.

Also schools have deep carpets but it depends on where they are located - and SEBO uprights are used to clean them too.

I've worked with cleaning companies and I certainly know the machines we've used. Your experience may differ from mine, and I'm glad of it - but don't try and battle your wits with me and pap off any old BS.
