It came!

[blackheart]

Well i got a call, and was told my Sebo D4 was in. So i went to pick it up today and i've had a little chance to try it out. It's a very nice machine! It feels sturdy. It's very quiet, both the power nozzle and the sound of airflow through the hard floor nozzle are louder than the actual vacuum even on the max setting. Cleaning wise It seems to work very well. The only thing I don't like is there's no clear indication of what speed setting you are on. I knew i wasn't going to like that part of it but overall it's a very nice vacuum and I can live with that minor inconvenience.

Spec wise:
Airflow (hose): 102.75 CFM
Suction: it's pulling about 73-74 inches of waterlift at the hose I think the indicator acts as a relief valve the motor spec is 95

congratulations

Glad you like the new Sebo, I think there is a led indicator on the vacuum that is supposed to show the speed, those machines are built well and should last you for many years.

Excellent choice ! The D4 is one of my favorite less talked about vacuums!

Motor speed

Well i know about the led indicator, but what i meant is it's hard to look at the indicator and know what setting you're on. Especially compared to the slider switch on the Felix, K3, and E3 where you can just look at the switch and know what setting you're on.

Have the Sebo Black D4 just like yours--a powerful vacuum-you have to get used to the speed indicator on the vacuum body-its unique!The bags in that thing are a bottomless pit!!!!Takes a While to fill it.

Parquets!

Congrats!
Just a tip. I can see you have a few parquets and I have the Sebo Parquet nozzle which I can recommend.It reaches easier places where it is hard to get. I post a couple of pics of the two hard-floor nozzles so you can see them side-by-side.

I envy you a bit, but I am also happy for you!

Could you post more pics? When posting pics (instead of a pic) they seem to be displayed in a slideshow. Different angles, open lid, filters and such. I, at least, would like that. [this post was last edited: 8/19/2017-11:21]

.

It did come with a more basic floor brush, but i do prefer the parquet nozzle the Felix came with fortunately i can use the parquet on the D4. Thanks for sharing the picture of the kombi nozzle i always kind of wondered what the inlet on that looked like.

You wanted more pictures? You got it!

Sebo Kombi nozzle

If any of you have the Kombi nozzle, and find it sticks to vinyl or thin carpet, take a look at the suction channel ends.

There are two GREY inserts - one on each side - which serve to act as blanking pieces, concentrating the suction to the floor. These can be prised out, rotated through 180 degrees and re-inserted. Then the nozzle will have suction channels right to the skirting board. And it won't stick to vinyl flooring.

One thing Sebo could do to make their power nozzle easier to use: make the on-off button larger. It would be best to have the brush roll power controlled by finger on the handle, but if that is problematic, a larger foot-operated pedal on the nozzle would be a big help.
