Sebo Felix 1 Upright Vacuum Cleaner REVIEW and TESTS - The Coolest Vacuum Cleaner? 

I love this vacuum🌼 The suction power is amazing. It's lightweight enough to carry from floor to floor and has several level selectors. Love the onboard tools. My only complaint is the cord is so low in the back. Not a huge deal. It's an amazing vacuum for the price. Amazing to see what it picks up. Easy to empty too. No bags like my old one.

You can EASILY remove the front brush from the parquet floor head, leaving the rear brush on- this way NO PLOWING!

I have been dreaming about this vacuum for over a year now.....thanks for the awesome review...now ALL my favorite vacuum review channels have tackled it...i think I might have to get one 😁👍

The parquet floor tool does have the ability to remove the front or rear brushes. I removed my front brush and have no issues with snow plowing. The Felix is one of my favorite vacuums. You should review the Sebo Disco attachment for the Felix. I like your channel, keep up the good work!

Super helpful video. I was gifted this for Christmas and honestly haven’t had the time to read over the features. Thanks!

Great review: quickly addressed all the important points. Looking at this model Sebo now, thanks!

Thank you, excellent review.

I love your videos! You get straight to the facts and are concise. Thanks.

Love it! Good looking

I have this vac and have had it for a long time now. No problems at all and just a quality easy to use vacuum. Great video.

There is a cool trick for the parquet brush. The row of brushes are removable, remove just the front row. Plowing problem solved. This is in my opinion an almost perfect vacuum cleaner.

One thing about German hard floor tools, is that they are designed to be dragged back. Not pushed forward and back, both brushing and sucking at the same time. Performance reviews talks about this and why German vaccumes or vaccumes with wessel work heads use this technique.

This is one I been wanting for a while just wish they had this with the an optional 18 inch power head instead of it only being available on their commerical line sebo's

The Felix is the best vacuum out there. I love mine. Haven't even touched any of my other vacuums since I got it.

Great video. Thanks

Bought my white Felix in May 2012 for approximately $500. Has been a delight to use and still works wonderfully. I'm spoiled... can't use anything else.

You should do a video about the disco floor polishing attachment

For my small apartment this is the perfect investment. I'm so glad I was able to get one locally! Highly recommend this buy it for life sebo vacuum

Just snagged one from my local dealer. I looked at a couple others, including much more expensive models from Miele, but the Felix actually had a much longer warrantee--weird. Thanks!

I love mine, absolutely love it!!!!

You made this on my birthday!!!! Thanks!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love This Saw

I don't know if Vacuum Wars ever knew this but you can remove both brisles on the hard floor tool but mainly the front one to be exact for better large debris pickup.

Hi! I've had my Sebo Felix 1 Premium Fun for about 7 years. It is very powerful and streamlined-- goes under very low furniture and stores easily in small closets. My issue is with the roller brush and buttons. I have had to take it in at least 3 times to have it checked (I have it serviced also with new filters etc) as to why the roller brush intermittently just stops working. No light and cannot engage it; suction is good as ever and no clogs. The repair people cannot seem to find anything wrong and when I get it back from the shop, the light and roller brush works fine. Then, periodically it stops, then starts again and finally after about a year, stops again and won't engage. Anyone have that problem? I don't use it for heavy duty work as we are a very small family with only one short haired cat :) I keep the roller cleared and make sure bags don't overfill. Help!

Great you got one! I bought the Felix because of the hype and man was it worth it. I just can't say enough good things about it. Build quality, powerhead and airflow is what first come to my mind.

One of the legendary vaccumes of all time.

Great review and machine! The Felix is a very versatile cleaner. I believe you can slide the front brush off of the parquet tool for less snow plowing. I have the X4 and it's the most durable vacuum I've used.

You should review X series. That what would interesting to see..

@Vacuum Wars, any chance of you reviewing the Sebo X4/7/8? From what I've read, they have automatic height adjustment, which should be interesting. They also have a "boost" or "brush" button, which allows greater resistance on the brush before making an adjustment to the height...thereby allowing deeper brush action and more agitation. This sounds like a great machine, not to mention build quality and warranty. But curious on about the objective test data. They all seem to have identical power, size, etc., so I don't know what the real differences are.

I absolutely love my Sebo. I don't have the Felix, but an upright Sebo X7. German engineering wins again...

It really is the coolest. I’d love one. It’s incredibly impressive.

Are you gonna do a Sebo canister ?

interesting, I have a miele s5000, and I find its awesome to set on the stairs and use the hose with. I think I only knocked it over once in the last 5 years, and its because I left it at the top step, and went to the very bottom, and around the corner. Woops. Maybe the treads on my stairs were bigger than yours.

It has the convenience of my moms shark without being disposable and it seems that it can clean closer to my kirby g6

Would've been nice to see the filtration test for this vacuum.

Just bought a Riccar R30D and hate it. Selling that one and bought one a Felix Onyx. Although I love the hose on the Riccar, it has this high-frequency squealing noise I can’t stand and didn’t do great on my tile. I didn’t like the Sebo D4 canister’s hose, but I did like the power head and adjustable suction. I think I should have just bought one of these to begin with.

Just curious: would you pick this Felix 1, or the Sebo X4 for short carpet and hardwood floors? I need quality, durability, maneuverability, and HEPA filter options. It MUST be bagged, not cannister. I'm dealing with a flea infestation, and it is likely going to be put to good use with baseboards and carpet, not to mention dust bunnies and hair clumps on hardwood flooring. My el-cheapo cannister Dirt Devil upright just isn't up to the task.....too cheap and doesn't vacuum baseboards. Thanks!

Cool videos like them very much. Have you ever try to test the royal vacuums like the pro one?

What a nice vacuum cleaner

Heyaa. You mentioned that it is an excellent deep cleaner (as it is evident with the flour under the carpet test) how come it is quoted with "only" 92% deep clean scores in all other tests?

My old vacuum broke and my central vac is not installed yet and I want to get a sebo felex do you recommend it?

Can you please review the kemore stick vac complete

i have one and its great but the steering machanism doesnt work properly anymore, it steers perfectly to the left butnot to the right, it pulls left when going straight? and also the sucker fall over way too easily, it needs sturdier support at the back

Do you still have the Dyson and Miele?

How does the Sebo Felix compare to the Kenmore Elite Pet 31150?

I can not, for the life of me, understand why Dyson is considered 'premium' in anything but price. I would like to see vacuum wars begin any review containing a Dyson against any other vacuum, cheaper or more expensive, at the top of those stairs going down to the basement. You say 'Test 1' and kick each vacuum down the stairs. You just know the Sebos and Mieles and Kirbys and even Sharks would still be working at the bottom - and that's a good thing, as they'd be needed to vacuum up the cheap plastic shards from the Dyson trash.

I would have to agree that the Miele upright is a tank. Yes, it' has a nice swivel head and it's super quiet, but too heavy. Haven't used the Felix, but I have used a Sebo canister which uses the same power head. It was fine except it is the only vacuum head I've ever used that bogged down to the point of stopping on a heavy shag carpet. The small powered brush is a turbo, but it's the best one I've ever used - admittedly, I've only used 2. The canister Sebo I used had a great feeling of quality. Maybe even better than a Miele canister. It didn't have all the "bells and whistles" of the Miele, but it would be a tough call if I had to choose one. I've never used a Dyson upright and after having used the Dyson stick vac and loved it, I might not be too quick to criticize the Dyson, but I've picked one up in the store and it sure does feel creaky and cheap - something that can absolutely not be said of a Sebo or Miele.

I'm glad to see your reviewing something other than cheap Chinese made vacuums

Are you still shilling for Dyson and shark?

Really great videos! Lots of good information. I'm curious as to which vacuum you would recommend for a house with all floor types. Low and high pile carpeting, laminate and hardwood. We are looking at the Sebo Felix or a Dyson V10. Thanks

You should review Sebo X4 or better yet X7. Like to see your thoughts on either model.

I wish that Singapore also have this lightweight upright cleaner. The current cylinder, the long hairs will trap on the cylinder cleaner's floor head brushes. I have to use my hand to remove the hairs. Very troublesome and we only have this cordless stick that always drain the battery very fast. My house is quite large for this cordless stick. It is unfair for me. And my dad prefer an upright. He kept on abusing my cylinder by making slam on her wheels and cable

One my favorites

awesome review but you didn't show the fog coming right through the thing which you did in another vid. if i'm spending 700-800 on a vac, I want no fog escaping

The styling is awesome, I'm sure they got the idea for that from the 1970s Regina Electrikbrooms and for that era, those weren't bad vacuums as matter of fact I own a few always liked they had style to them.

Another con would be that you’ll have to replace the filters every year but other than that it’s a great vacuum!

Vacuum wars. I saw you on tv in shark commercial

Can you review sebo’s entry canister the k2 kombi?

Do you think Sebo will back their warranty if used for commercial purposes?

Ma la spazzola gira, è snodabile, o è fissa??

Are you still going to review the roidmi f8 storm

Review the quantum x upright vacuum

I wish I could see someone test it on a bucket of long human hair that's been rubbed into thick carpet real good.

Do you know how I can buy one in the USA

Can you review and electolux vacuum?

I'd love to have one of these vacuums, but I'm in Ontario, Canada so I'd have to purchase it from Amazon Canada and at $1000, it's really out of my price range! Plus the parts are hard to get here for the Sebo and the bags are like $50-$60 for a pack of 5 bags. I mean, YES, we're use to getting ripped off for everything here, but those numbers are just a bit ridiculous!

The problem with this vac is once the bag starts to fill its suction falls off a cliff. You can fill a Shark or any bagless up to near full and suction still is fine. Which meant if you want good suction you'll be replacing the bag around 50 percent full. And with Sebo cloth bags that gets expensive rather quick, esp if you use one professionally.

Why for the hard floos is better the roll switch off?? (0:50)

Test out their Sebo X4 or X5.

How much of a difference is it between this and a canister Sebo e3? What are the advantages of paying a few hundred more dollars for the canister?

For better hard floor pick keep the brush roll on and set it to 1

I would agree, the Sebo Felix is a good vacuum, & a better choice than most other bagged uprights. I own a Sebo Felix Onyx & Rosso as well. However, there are some flaws that make it unacceptable to me. The "S Class" filtration system that Sebo claims filters as well as sealed HEPA vacuums is definitely flawed & nowhere near as good as a sealed HEPA vacuum. Put a particle counter on it while it's running & watch it fail miserably. The bags & filters are pricy & poor quality - Sebo's bags are only 3 ply HEPA Cloth material, whereas Miele's bags are 9 ply & you can fill them 3/4 full before you notice any loss of suction/airflow. Sebo's bags will clog much faster, just like any other HEPA Cloth bag does, & the worst part is bag cost for both brands is comparable. In addition, the bag chamber is poorly designed so as to not allow maximum airflow. Where's the dusting brush & extension wand? Inexcusable for a vacuum in it's price point to not have them standard. The powerhead has no headlight, nor do they make a optional powerhead that has one. The vacuum is very tippy when using tools, to the point you had better have one hand on the cleaner when using the tools, & it's big & bulky when converting it to use as a portable canister. The ET1 powerhead also needs some refinement = the power button is way too small, I actually put a metal pushbutton switch in it's place it was THAT annoying how small it was. The swivel steering is a joke, the powerhead neck doesn't make the powerhead swivel much at all, the Wessel Werk powerheads are far better at this. Also, I find that on some low pile rugs, if you put it on Position 1, that's too low and it's hard to push, yet put it on Position 2 and you barely feel the brushroll grooming the carpet. It needs 1 more height position added to the 4 height adjustments to make it ideal. One really bad trait this vacuum has also is it throws a LOT of heat - if you're sensitive to heat in the summer months, avoid using it as much as possible or find someone else to vacuum. One little tip on the floorbrush - if you take out the front bristle strip, it won't snowplow debris and it actually becomes 1 of the best floor brushes for pet hair, it just gulps it right in without much getting caught on the bristles. Don't get me wrong, it is a nice vacuum. But for my money, I would much rather take the Kenmore Elite you reviewed ANY DAY over the Sebo Felix.

I've had my black Sebo Felix for just under a year and have only used it about 6 times. I really don't like the machine for some reason. It's very well made but it does snow plow items on hard surfaces unless you remember to adjust the height. The short on-board hose is a joke and makes dusting and cleaning furniture a challenge. I keep meaning to put it on Ebay!

Can you do versus between Seebo versus Kirby

Does it have an extension wand

Is it sealed?

Are generic (i.e. EnviroCare) vacuum cleaner bags O.K. to use for SEBO vacuums? In my case a X4 Automatic I just purchased but am not a fan of. It has a 10 year warranty so I should be covered and the non OE bags are a fraction of the cost. Thanks for your insight.

Sebo vs dyson

I have the white version

What about fragrances for it, where does one install them?

Seems like a nice one, but i dont think i could go back to a bag.

I think it's ugly AF. Idk why people talk bad about Shark vacuums, I've had a Rotator for 5 years and it's super powerful, works great and looks good, and it has headlights.

Funny how much you seem to like this vacuum since you are giving such a bad opinion of it in your comparaison and top .videos...🤔

I hate mine and went back to another brand. I can't believe how heavy and cumbersome this thing is, especially for above floor cleaning.

NOTICE he did no filtration test?! He was obviously sponsored to do this video. Do a fog test with this machine and it will pump out the fog as quick as it comes in. SEBO Felix has awful filtration.

I'm surprised to see that you completely skip over canister vacuums on your channel which are the best vacuums for mixed hard flooring and carpet homes. Just seemed odd to me for a vacuum channel to not cover 50% off the market

I had to two Mieles and had to replace my upright .... no longer available .... so ended with the Sebo Felix. I've had it a year now. Suction and hard floor attachment are great, and love the swivel feature. But I think the person who designed this vacuum cleaner should be hung by their toes! Does NO ONE ELSE have problems getting this thing to stand up? I am SOOOOOOOO sick of pulling it (latched in place) into another room or even a few feet and have it tip over and slam me in the toes. I am CONSTANTLY having to pick it up, usually in total frustration and set it back down, telling it to "STAY". My dogs look at me confused. They're used to hearing that, but not used to hearing me say it to the vacuum cleaner. And the Sebo Felix doesn't listen anyway. I'd do anything to have my Miele back. Why would ANYONE design something so top heay that it cannot stand up? I don't get it.

I like shark better then and vacuum

Shut up and take my money!

$650 loooool

do they have any better designs? that pattern is hideous

No but i dont actually own it

Also check out his channel he has weird vids (do not sub) ru-vid.com/show-UCarWyjiXANMnKVNzUUBKh4g

I know this is subjective, but that's probably the ugliest vacuum I've ever seen. I'm sure it's a fantastic vacuum, but geez.

Ugly vacuum ngl.

I don't like sebo
