Hi

I am saving myself for the all new sebo cylinder vac which is to be launched at the IFA on the 5th september.

D's will get lower watt motors

 

[sebo_fan]

Some of the D's already have low watt motors - 1200 watt and 1600 watt in certain European countries. A 700 watt one is planned.

All new SEBO Cylinder vacuum sounds intriguing I wonder what this all new machine will be like. I take it's in addition to the K and D series!?

I take it's in addition to the K and D series!?

from what I understand, it's just D and K series but redesigned with a new motor

 

[madaboutsebo]

I thought that might be the case Turbo500. Just thought I'd ask the question. I think there is a Felix version too. Not sure about the X series wonder if this model will be touched!

 

[sebo_fan]

Planned lower watt X series and Felix are to be launched - apparently. 


 


The Professional D6, D7 and D8 models with 1600 watts now have 1200 watts but I wouldn't be surprised if SEBO put 700 watt motors in these commercial versions too. 


 


I can't see SEBO doing very much to their current ranges other than lowering the high suction motors on their cylinder vacs - everything else has low enough power anyway.

Thanks sebo_fan for the info. Nice to see there may be a planned lower watt X series. Might wait to get one of them or do I get one of the current ones!! Looks like SEBO are opting for a 700 watt motor for the lower watt range across the board! Unless the X has a 900 watt! Wonder if the X1.1 will go! Or they could offer 700 watt and 900 watt X series models.

Makes sense for them to standardise across the domestic and commercial if the 700 watt motor provides same performance as the higher powered motors!

Where did you find this information out about lower wattage X and Felix machines?

 

[madaboutsebo]

I only know of the lower watt Felix from a link I managed to find that I saw on ITV News last week. I have just noticed SEBO UK has put it as a link under the 'News' section of the UK website. It features Justin Binks Director of SEBO UK and SEBO UK HQ and it briefly shows x2 Felix one with a lower watt motor which you wouldn't be able to tell from looking at it.

I only know of the lower watt X series from reading this thread.

 

[sebo_fan]

I read about the X series, Felix and cylinder models from German PDF commercial cleaning magazines online. At lot can be read up, even if you don't know the language that well - Google Chrome provides good translations.

 

[blakaeg]

Can you share the link with us please?

 

[sebo_fan]

Nope. I don't keep a reference to what I read sometimes. I may have been told about it by an official SEBO rep when I phoned them quite a few months ago. I can't remember, sorry.

Here's your proof Blakaeg...

Screenshot today from SEBO in Germany - 1st September 2014. As you will see, the X4 now has 1100 watts.
