I have been using my Kirby G2000 Limited a lot lately but I have a problem. My apartment is in an old house and the house is settling or has been settling and some of the surfaces are uneven because of this. My bedroom is the worse and I have been having a horrible time vacuuming the the carpet in this room. Certain parts of the room I can have the floor nozzle one notch before the lowest and it works fine. Other parts of the floor at the same level it stopps the roller brush and I almost burn up a belt. It I raise it up a level it goes to high and the brush isn't even touching the carpet. I have been vacuuming the room one half with the brush roll and the other half with the hose and floor brush. Any ideas?

Sebo X4 The Sebo X4 would be a better choice for your place. | ||

Sebo
The Sebo is almost an exact copy of a Windsor Sensor. The hotel I worked for used these and they saw a lot of use and held up very well. They may be plastic but so is an Oreck and I have seen those put through the wringers and keep kicking. Just because its plastic doesn't mean its a terrible choice. Just my opinion.

Moving the bed as you said would be a great idea for the short term since you don't think you will be there much longer. I think almost any vac will be difficult on an uneven floor. | ||

Just because the Sebo vacuums aren't American made and plastic doesn't mean they are bad vacuums. They aren't CRI approved, but Windsor vacuums are, and they are basically the same. My guess is that Sebo just didn't feel like contacting the CRI to get their vacuums approved. Companies have to contact the CRI to get their machines rated.
