Yet how can one know it all at just 17 years of age?

How can one know it all at ANY age? There is always room for knowledge to grow on any subject and new things to be learnt. No one person knows everything about everything.

I often wonder if Sebo like Henry could use the Felix as a model in which to personalise for corporate or personal use.

The Felix strikes me as being quite a manly piece of kit with the head changing capability and what with the filter/decoration to the external I do think it would be possible to make it appeal to classic car collectors and such.
Not to mention its ability and flexibility.

I know a couple of car collectors whom buy literally anything if its associated with a certain car and of use in and around the car.

Perhaps members from such sites as....

Fordownersclub
forums.mg-rover.org
cardomain.com
landyzone.co.uk etc
may like the idea

Logo's. colour schemes, various images could be used on a personal level.

I wonder if Sebo have thought about appealing to the BOYS with TOYS market.

Then there is the Caravan collectors too. Ideal again.

...well, I looked over the new offerings and I think this has to be the coolest vacuum I've seen.

I love the graphic. So playful and fun! I love that Sebo are getting creative with their graphics. Such a refreshing change from the norm.

Can you buy just the filter cloth with the graphic? I wonder how it would look on the orange Felix Fun body.

TBH Rob I never really gave that thought any grounds for personalisation. I think for the fact that you can get different colours and different covers, personal enough, but then I can see what you are thinking and that's a good idea.


 


I was also wondering the same thing, Sanifan with regard to whether the covers would be available as an optional spare - but I doubt it - mind you, in time the flag covers and everything else will probably be available but not any time soon. Possibly a year or so may pass before optional covers are available - though it wouldn't hurt SEBO in the long run to open up a new market for exhaust cover designs. They already sell current and the fun model exhaust covers on site as well as the Dart's original grey/black pattern.


 
 
"How can one know it all at ANY age?"

As you said, knowledge always expands, hopefully as one grows older, thus becoming wiser.
 
I believe nothing is infallible in this world, except maybe Jesus Christ, but that depends on whether you "believe" or not.
 
hmmmmmmmmmmmm so......

bagged or bagless?

I'm staying out of this. Perhaps we should talk about something 'lighter'... say, maybe CANCER! I'll never bash any of these, never ran one, never owned one. I'd just hate to see friendships burst into flames here.
 
Yes, you know the consequences of flames don't ya John ?

Don't worry, I'm sure it won't happen again, even if Electrolux IS better than Hoover :)
 
Come on Ryan, surely I made it blantantly obvious I was joking lightheartedly ?

If not, I really should rethink my grammar.
 
Years ago Oreck and Dyson both did a Pink version with ribbons on it to support Susan J. Komen Breast Cancer Society in the U.S.

Electrolux in U.S. has a line made of recycled plastics that were found off trash in our oceans. They state it as a way to deter people from treating our worlds gorgeous oceans as garbage dumps.

Maybe we could have sports teams themed vacuums. A Philadelphia Phillies Cliff Lee Jersey Hoover Canister. Pittsburgh Pirates vacuum cleaner. Or favorite foods-- a Pepperoni Pizza vacuum. LOL!!!

Not trying to stir up any trouble, but I found several cylinder/ canister vacuums abroad, as I live in the U.S. with motors over 2100 watts. Yes there were some at 1300 and 1400 but many were around 2000/2200. Even found one on Amazon.co.uk with 3000 Watts a Puregadgets Vortex. Here are other examples, all of which are cylinder canisters and NONE have an electric power nozzle, which the Sebo does:
Hoover Rush TCR4237 2300 Watts
Electrolux Twin Tech ZT7740 2100 Watts
Dirt Devil High Power Bagged DCC004-01 2500 Watts
Vax Pure Power 7 Total Home C89-P7N-T 2400 Watts
Miele S3810 Power Plus 2200 Watts
---majority of Miele canisters S8, S6 series are 2200 Watts
Bosch- Several models 2200 Watts
Siemens VS06G2410 2400 Watts

Therefore I see nothing out of place with a Sebo at 2100 Watts. I am curious if the 2100 is only available on the Airbelt Premium line to include the ET-1 power nozzle?

Sebo is the only manufacturer I came across so far with a power nozzle! The power nozzle available as an option for Numatic looks more like a toy to me. Never used it, but its appearance is that is low powered and not well designed for deep cleaning carpets but instead just to help remove surface dirt like pet hair.
 
In the UK the 2100 watt models apply to all but the base red K1 Airbelt model (there are currently five models such as the K1 Airbelt, K1 Komfort, K1 Pet, K3 Vulcano & K3 Premium) which has an 1800 watt model. There was an Eco model a few years ago but it didn't sell much (1500 watt motor). The original argument here was stemmed from a cylinder vacuum like the K1 that has 2100 watts - Miele offer an extra 100 watts more on their S4, S5 and S6 range, so its not as if Sebo are out on a limb here - and that's without the 175 watt electric nozzle added on top. It would be interesting to know what wattage the 300 mm electric head on the Henry is.
