Yes I love the manual height adjust. Only need an upholstery tool. Really good machine and nice to use. Dc07 upstairs. The dc01 was too short so being 6ft2 the exhaust was pointing towards the floor and just blew dirt around.
 
Very nice SEBO BS, BS36. Is that with the new head you ordered from SEBO UK? Is the manual height adjustment work ok? Similar to the Felix manual height adjuster.
 
There's something wrong with that Sebo, it wouldn't leave a bin of crap if it was functioning properly!

That brush certainly looks fried, but I doubt it's cleaning solution to blame, who leaves a vacuum in 4 inches of cleaner?

I think it is cleaning solution. In the cleaning cupboard there is a sink. I think the floor has got wet from the sink being used to fill buckets and stuff. It then means the cleaner head is standing in it. Whilst not deep water and metal do not mix.
 
I've used both quite a lot. Whilst the BS series have a smaller overall floorhead, it's wider than the X series and the machine is a lot taller, making it slightly difficult to maneuver around furniture.
 
Well the BS36 isn't that far off from the X5 "big" model - 36cm working width versus 37cm on the domestic X5.

The thing is, for the moment, the BS series, regardless of whether it is a commercial model, is the only SEBO brand from UK arm of where manual height adjustment is available. The Dart models don't count when they only have a 3.5 litre dust bag on board. Its a real shame SEBO don't have the G1/G2 series to buy; they replaced it with the Dart, whilst it is good, it is not the same as, IMHO.
 
So I did a swap recently with some friends at a church that I sometimes play services for. They wanted another commercial upright, but a smaller machine that could get around corners. They were going to go for another Nilco upright until I bought in my old SEBO Dart 1. I think I made a good swap.

I'm told this SEBO 360 has a refurbished hand a refurbished base since the original would have had cream bumpers as opposed to black. It was a little bit clogged up with pew kneeler sawdust and had sat in the church cleaning cupboard for many years. It has also had a new slip in exhaust cover at the front. Im quite impressed with it though, it feels lighter to lift than the SEBO X1 Auto upright and in my home, the larger floor head is more welcomed.

Only thing I've added to it is a spare brown "Classic" Felix tool holder slider at the front. It had an old clip but it had been broken.
