SeboAll- SE VA Dart Vacuum Cleaner, White

I've had this vacuum about 2.5 years and it is wonderful. Beautiful build quality, great suction, super easy to use. I bought more bags anticipating I'd need them quickly, but it really packs them full because of the suction. Cord length is plenty to reach down a set of stairs, super easy to clean. It is a little bulk sometimes, but as long as you don't have to carry it there's no problem. Easily maneuverable on flat ground. If you're vacuuming stairs though I recommend the stair vacuuming accessory, otherwise it will be a workout. The only minor downside of this vacuum is that I have to set the bristles at the max height to do my carpet, and even then they sometimes stop and you have to reset them. It doesn't happen frequently, but if you have anything over mid pile carpet you may not be able to use the bristles.

This vacuum really picks up well. I have a Siberian Husky, a Mountain Cur with wiry hair and 3 cats. I need to vacuum every day and have been through many different vacuum cleaners in the past 5 years. We tried a Miele C1 with a turbo head but it didn’t live up to the hype. The vacuum it is replacing is a Kenmore intuition which worked well but broke down constantly. So far the Sebo has outperformed anything. I’ve never seen my rugs so clean. It works a treat on hardwood too. It senses the hardwood and automatically turns off the brush roller. The one thing that could be better is the wand. There isn’t really a wand, only a flexible tube which can make it difficult to get behind some furniture without getting on your hands and knees. You can buy a wand for it so I will probably do that in the future.This is hands down the best vacuum I have ever used.

I love this vacuum cleaner. I tried a number of different cleaners and this one is the best.

I have four cats, two are long-haired. I have carpeting and I live in a dusty place in the world. I have gone through a number of vacuum cleaners over 30 plus years of managing a household, to include a series of Sharks that lasted 2-3 years on average before shorting out, burning out, or malfunctioning in another way. I tend to vacuum every other day to keep the particles at bay, to help out the asthmatics of the household (including myself), and I admit I am demanding of these machines. I've owned Hoover, Bissell, Kenmore, aforementioned Shark, and Miele, and so far this vacuum is my favorite. It only has two attachments (a wand and upholstery brush), but how many do you need? What I like is that it is intuitively designed with nothing superfluous, stores easily as an upright, and stars a powerful engine reflecting superior German engineering. It has a closed system and uses bags, so does not spew dust particles back out onto the air like the bagless Sharks. For the same cost range it surpasses the Miele, which for all the hype and BIFL claims, just like the Sharks, stopped swimming one day and died. I bought this for the carpets exclusively and still have one last Shark on hand for hard floors. Very pleased.

This Sebo Dart is a quality vacuum, quality motor, good suction, and it's a workhorse. The bags are high quality and work well. But it's venting musty air into the room, as it must not be completely sealed, and there's no HEPA filter. I just got a Shark Navigator LA300 for $119 and although it's not the same construction quality and not the same robust motor or roller, it's completely sealed with a HEPA filter, and the air smells very clean afterwards. I wish SEBO would make an upright with a completely sealed HEPA system. Maybe they do, but I've spent enough already.

I love this vacuume. It has great suction and the brush head on/off switch is a must have if you have carpet and hardwood floors. The brushhead is very vigorous and might damage your hardwood floors if they are easily scratched. The 10 year warranty stated here is absolutely inaccurate. The warranty on the Sebo Dart is (quoted from the warranty registration that came with it): 7 years motors (brush and suction) 5 years parts (excluding the usual wear and tear items) and 5years labor. It is a bit pricey but the plastic components are that thicker plastic that has a heavy finish on it. Not like some vacuumes that have that thin brittle stuff (Dyson yuk!!). If I had to pick a con for this vacuume it would be that it has two filters that need replaced every 10 to 20 sweeper bag changes. I couldn't find the exhaust filter here on Amazon but Sebo wants $39.99 for it though. I'm not sure it needs changed as often as they claim. It's a microfiber sleeve that fits over the canister. Sebo says that it can't be washed but I'll probably buy a replacement when it's time and then see if the old one will wash up. The second filter is the motor filter and costs around $15. Sounds kind if expensive butI do like having those filters since I have allergies. Oh and it even though the Sebo Dart is not listed as self-propelled (couldn't find anywhere that mentioned it) it feels like it is. Great vacuume!

Small, powerful, nimble, lightweight. Easy to use. Happy with it
