SEBO Felix Rosso Unboxing Pics

[madabouthoovers]

Today, I took delivery of my third SEBO machine, to complement my X4 Extra and my K3 Vulcano, I now have a Felix Premium Rosso.


Like the K3, I ordered it from Freenet Electrical and it was delivered next day, all for the price of £217, which I thought was extremely competitive. SO far I have been very impressed with Freenet, but I did have to wait a while for the Rosso to come into stock. I think the Rosso is the least sold Felix model, with most people either going for the Vogue or Pet models, which Freenet usually carry in stock all the time.


 


Roger does a comprehensive review on this machine on youtube, but I thought I'd post some unboxing pics.


 


The Felix came in a standard Felix box, well packed for transit inside a plain cardboard box.

Showing the underside of the SEBO Felix Rosso 's Red  ET-1 powerhead in beautiful, unused and clean condition - this is a fantastic floorhead that pulls itself along as you go:

The empty box - and the instructions - sadly only 1 bag is supplied with this machine - will have to order some more!

SEBO Felix Rosso - Assembly stage 2 -  Attach the tool caddy to the handle  and push the two tools (Upholstery and Crevice) onto it - unfortunately the Felix Rosso does not come with a dusting brush, but I have one on my other SEBO machines

I wont ramble on about how wonderful this machine is, as Roger has done an excellent, in depth review of this model on his youtube channel (IBAISAIC), but as he didn't do an unboxing video of it, I thought I'd show some pics of how it comes boxed.


 


I can honestly say that I feel SEBO are now my favourite brand for modern vacuum cleaners, and for the money, this model is half the price of a Dyson Dc41, it just cant be bettered in my opinion. The Felix is just such a versatile machine, which you either love its looks or hate them, but it does its job, and that's what we want from a Vacuum cleaner.

Enjoy!

What do you think of its performance on hard floors?

I had the classic model, and part from hard surface pick up i loved it. Even with clean filters and a new bag it still left grit and small stones after vacuuming. So it had to go.

 

[madabouthoovers]

I don't have much hard floor - its carpet in every room bar the kitchen and bathroom, where its lino. I have yet to test it on hard floor, but as it has variable power and brushroll shut off, it shouldn't suck the lino up to the nozzle like the X series does. I will post later with my results from the lino, but on carpet its great.

You'll be able to use the power head with your K3 if you buy the relevant parts.

 

[madabouthoovers]

I'd need the power wand and the small cable connector for the handle - that would cost me the best part of £100 lol

They are incredible machines. Beautifully engineered, durable, quiet, cheap to run, good value for money and the felix is very versatile and comes in some great designs and colours. Mine is the navy so it is white with a royals blue exhaust filter.

@ baglessball - Performance on hard flooring is okay with the head switched off but what you really need is the parquet floor tool. Around £20 on the internet. It transforms its usability on hard floors. Natural hairs strips of removes bristle and it sticks to the floor because it creates such a good seal.
