My opinion is that a lot of U.S buyers who have PN added canisters already have probably seen the D4 or tried it and either don't like it because it's better made, does look a lot bulkier or because it's more expensive, or a bit of both.
As you know Venson I'm not a huge fan of canisters with PN nozzles. I think the whole concept defeats the purpose of remaining lightweight and the D series normally is about the same weight as the Miele S5, it's rival with only a little more weight added because of the much longer power cord that the D was designed to hold. | ||

"..It's better made? It's at the very root of the core of basic human nature to acquire and be attracted to the best "made" and highest quality product there is..."
Which is why I said, originally - it is better made - not the best which suggests the best is yet to come from any brand. IN so far as the water pull, a factor that I must admit doesn't interest me much, Sebo quote the pull PER minute which is 120cfm. That's 20 off the Miele S5 - but then the Miele S5 has a smaller dust bag capacity - Sebo's dust bag is measured between 5.5 and 6 litres. Sebo's hose is also longer at 2.1 metres than Miele's 1.8 metres. All in, where airflow is concerned, it takes longer on the Sebo because of the longer hose and bigger dust bags.

I much prefer uprights to canister cleaners but the idea of the pn is that canisters have more suction and airflow than a clean air upright due to there been more space for bigger motors. so with a pn you are getting the best of both worlds the uprights motor driven brush action with the huge suction power of the canister.

If you refer to my previous post, you'll see why the Sebo D4 is lower on the water lift factor than the S5. Bigger bag, longer hose on the D4. Also has 100 watts lower than the 2200 watts on an S5 - D4's have a 2100 watt motor and 175 watt motor ET-1 PN.
Sanifan - I also agree about the plasticy wheels on floor head nozzles. Unbelievably whenever i'm cleaning marble flooring with Miele's highly claimed "AirTeq" floor head which have rubber lined wheels, they also squeal against the floor. The Sebo's single wheeled standard suction only floor head does not, and neither does the heavier Deluxe Kombi floor tool. | ||
