Sebo Felix Classic Upright Vacuum Cleaner

Key Features
All vacuums can be divided by several basic types of design. Canister vacuums are so named because their design is similar to a water canister (container with handle) and they have a long hose that allows for extra reach. Upright style vacuums are vertically standing vacuums, where the entire device is pushed over the carpet or floor. Stick vacuums look like stream-lined uprights. This design lacks the power of an upright or canister model, but they are good for small living quarters. Handheld vacuums are small, compact and lightweight and come with a narrow nozzle. They are good for general clean ups but lack the power for bigger cleaning jobs. Wearable or "backpack" models come with a shoulder strap or harness and can be carried around the house by the user. Robotic models are the newest type and are somewhat of a novelty. These vacuums roam around a floor space on their own. Central systems are a stationary type of canister vacuum cleaner which is usually mounted in the basement or garage. This design has a single powerful vacuum with pipe system outlets for every room in a house.\r\n
Bag Filtration filters by having the dirty air pass through a disposable bag. The bag works much like a filter, removing the dust and dirt particles as the air passes though. Once the bag is full it can be emptied, or in most case replaced. \r\n Wet/Dry dirty air enters the tank, its speed decreases and dirt is falling down. \r\n Cyclonic systems separate the dust particles from the air flow by spinning the air within a chamber. The spinning causes centrifugal force to act upon the dust particles, separating it from the inner part of the chamber. Some cleaners use multiple chambers and most cleaners add filters to increase the total system filtration efficiency. \r\n Wet/Dry are almost exclusively cylinder in design and will work dry like a traditional vacuum but with the additional option of cleaning with fluid like water with carpet shampoo.\r\n
The filtration system for vacuum cleaners varies between machines. Most better quality vacuums today use a filter system so that dust and allergens that are sucked into the vacuum aren't put back into the air. Machines that use a bag to collect dust have no filtration while others are sophisticated enough to filter out pollen and particles less that 100 microns. Certain models have a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arresting) filter, which operates at a higher efficiency rate and removes the smallest particles. More than one type of filter may be used in some of these systems, increasing their effectiveness. These units generally cost more but are very effective in reducing allergen in your home.

Edge Cleaning is the special ability to clean carpets up to the very edge of the wall. Heated Cleaning is for steam types only that can heat up the water before it is sprayed. Cord rewind is when the power cord is kept on spring reel, inside the vacuum and recoils automatically once triggered. Blowing vacuums have the ability to blow out air as well as suck in. Dirt indicator indicates (via sensors) the places to clean or if more cleaning is need for any area the device comes into contact with. Lift Off is the ability of a upright vacuum to be removed from standing base to provide more reach. Built in Water Pump can be quite helpful in case of a small flood. Touch Control Handle devices will have some controls on the vacuum handle (on/off/speed etc).

| Pros |
The Sebo Felix is extremely well designed and performs exactly as advertised. |
| Cons |
Pricey but overall worth it. Canister conversion needs a shoulder strap. |
| Bottom Line |
The Sebo Felix is a great value. Smartly designed for a variety of vacuuming needs from floor to ceiling and everything in between. Beware: you'll actually want to vacuum. |

Parquet floor attachment doesn't work that well. Motorized brush attachment is all you need. |
| Bottom Line |
This machine is sturdy, funky, lightweight and makes it a delight to vacuum. |
| Pros |
Excellent! Very versatile, quiet and easy to steer. HEPA filter and sealed bags. Two designs |
| Cons |
Short hose, uses a bag, Topples over. |
| Bottom Line |
Efficient, powerful, quiet, versatile - it is worth the price even if it uses paper bags and a HEPA filter system. |
