The machine officially launches tomorrow so I can now share more information.

There's now a product information video up I have done, you can find it at the link below.

Now that's proper cordless upright. I want one so badly! Brushroll looks like it's identical what I have in my Sebo Felix. I am very surprised that it uses direct air system.

Now I know why it may be a while for this to show up in the US. It is 875GBP. You can buy an X7 and a Felix plus have spare change for that amount in the UK. Here it would be damn near $2,000, which would price it out the market, yet the corded version only costs $399 here.
 
If that Sebo vacuum is going to be $2000 in the US--forget it.You can get Titan,Simplicity and Riccar cordless uprights for less than half the cost of the Sebo.In Greenville the dealer here is a Sebo dealer.He also carries Titan,Simplicity and Riccar.For 2 grand the Sebo machine is priced out of market compared to others.
 
I never understand why Sebo and Miele are so expensive in the US. I am quite upset about it.
If this new cordless Sebo is insanely expensive in US many collectors probably import it from UK or Germany.
 
It makes sense that these cordless uprights use a “fan first” configuration. This set up is less of a drain on the battery as you do not need such powerful suction to get the dirt off the carpet and up into the bag. Half the work removing the dirt comes from the spinning brush roll.
 
Hmm

This sound very similar to the now discontunied ProTeam FreeFlex and why that product failed in the market. The corded version was like maybe less than $700 yet the cordless version was about $1500! If the same similar thing happens to Sebo, then I don't see them being around in the market for very long either.
 
Oh boy, this is not what I needed to see. I've been literally dreaming about Sebos all week and this is the exact kind of machine I would be interested in. A new direct-air bagged machine!! I'm not a fan of batteries since they get worn out pretty quickly in my experience, but the corded model looks great. $399 is not bad at all.

Please keep us updated if anyone buys one!
 
I'd be very interested to see the Karcher branded corded one also. Personally, I'd have launched that first in Europe, since we can't even buy Orecks anymore, it would fill a gap in the market.

If anyone here does buy the corded Karcher $399 one in the US, please do make a topic. I'd like to see some proper photos and/or a video.

We've been using the cordless on the shop floor this week. Alright, it's expensive I know (we have an off-site deal though), but it's great for going around our parts shelves (we have several isles that are a pain to vacuum). And it is very effective, and as mentioned upthread, it is a Sebo X brushroll.
 
Now this is interesting.
Looks like it cleans better than the Truvox Valet (Simplicity Freedom cordless).
