Or maybe not. It seems I'm having a technical issue. I do apologise.

Get yourself along to Euronics or John Lewis stores - you should be able to find a Felix there to play with.

Great thread Emma/vacuumlover. I brought my SEBO Felix 8 years ago from new (Classic model) and love it. It was a choice between the Felix or the X4 but I went with the Felix! It's been one of the best vacuums I've owned (along with my Vorwerk). It's the vacuum cleaner that got me back into bagged vacuums as I was a big fan of bagless. It's still performs like the day I brought it.
Here's a picture of mine (excuse the Christmas decorations in the picture!) taken a while ago.
I love how the bags filled to the top, they are like a brick when full!
Like sebo_fan says go and try a SEBO out see what you think.

In terms of modern machines, I don't think you can go wrong with Sebo's. They're so solid and reliable - certainly more so than anything else on the market at the moment with the exception of Kirby's, but then again, the Kirby's are 8 times more expensive. Sebo have also been known to last as long, if not longer, than Kirby's. There are still Sebo 350's from 1978/79 still in use and X1's from 1991.

Since buying my SM2, my old 360 seems redundant. I know a shop owner who is keen to grab it for a cheap price but I ain't selling it. I still love using it from time to time.

Sebo
My ex partner still has his Sebo which he bought in 1997. Looks a little outdated but has never broken down once.
My partner bought me a Miele upright vacuum when they first came out. The first one we had to take back because it was faulty, and the second one fell apart. The bag full indicator kept on falling out, and other minor niggles.
I do have an x4 in the loft. I find Sebo to be very well made.
Cheers.

Hi Vacuumlover, I managed to get 2015 brochure info for Felix model.

Thank you Emma.
Your welcome...thought I'd post a few pictures of my SEBO Felix to view. Colour scheme looks dated on mine when you see the others. I nearly picked the Fun model when I got mine! That's was orange in colour!
I hope you manage to get a SEBO in the future, and try one out too.
Like the new Felix brochure blakaeg, not so much in depth detail as before. Wonder what the other brochures look like for the other models. Might have to get SEBO to send me some!
Will agree there with Turbo500 SEBO are so reliable and well built. I've had my Felix 8 years this year and still going strong. I'd have another one again, would love to add an X series along with my Felix!

On one of the Vacuumland threads, I read that the exhaust blowing out of the fabric filtre can get quite hot and thus making the Felix quite uncomfortable to use as a portable canister with the shoulder strap. Do users find this to be true?

That is true, but it only really applied when the cleaner was used constantly on full power, which wasn't needed most of the time.
The new 700w Eco Felix barely generates any heat at all, so the current models are much nicer to use in that regard.

If I do decide to get one, the heat won't be a problem for me as personally I prefer to use a separate machine. In other words, I would prefer to use a Henry for above floor cleaning.

Turbo500 is spot on you only notice the heat on full power which you don't need it on that setting all the time. I noticed with my Felix since using the new synthetic bags you don't need the power as high in general.
I've sampled the new 700 watt Eco Felix and there is no noticeable heat coming from the machine even on full power.

Also the Felix doesn't need to have full power applied because of the ET-1 power nozzle. Same with the K3 Premium, D4 cylinders.
