I had originally ordered a new Diamante back in February 2025, but due to a long delay I purchased the X4. I’m definitely glad I did not pay the MRSP for the Diamante. The Diamante definitely possesses the usually high Lindhaus quality, but it also carries the complaints I have with their Healthcare Pro. I would say that the Diamante is the least powerful bypass machine I own. Even though this machine is a two motor model, it really can’t do hardfloors well. The Diamante was slightly better than the Healthcare in hardfloors with the powernozzle, probably because the Diamante has the 12” nozzle. The attachments are also a rather poor experience. The hose is too short, a lot shorter than the X4. The “dusting brush” is too stiff to use on anything delicate. The upholstery tool is the worst design I’ve seen, you have to disassemble the dusting brush and assemble the furniture brush to clean a chair. The wand is a nightmare to pull out, you have fight with it to get it off of the machine. I do like that the hose handle is a friction fit to the wand and not their awful clip fitting. I’ve only experienced the two row brush on the Diamante, and I can say that I prefer the single row on my Healthcare. The two row seams to catch most of any pet hair, possibly due to the lack of suction. I will say that overall, the Diamante reminds me most of the S7/U1. If I could only own one Lindhaus, I would take the Healthcare.
I also wanted to compare the two commercial grade full sized domestic uprights. I have the Diamante and X4, but I suppose the G4 and Activa would be the best comparison (still mostly similar machines). The X4 feels lighter in the hand in all situations (cord wrapped up pushing on rear wheels, and when reclined motor off). Sebo definitely has the superior hose and wand system and attachments. Both machines have an abnormal wheel arrangement, the Sebo feels more steady. The Diamante has an odd lean, since the wheels are on the left side ( I do believe that the Activa has more balanced front wheels). The X4 definitely performs better on hardfloors than the two motor Diamante. I really don’t prefer one cord hook over the other, both are of high quality (the Sebo is possibly easier to release). I do prefer the power switch on the Sebo, the Diamante’s power switch is way too low. I also prefer the Sebo bag dock and door, the Lindhaus is simply quirky. I don’t see why Lindhaus needed to make the bag door as large, they should have had it come off under the power controls.
