Of the options above my top choices would be
Lindhaus: I kind of consider the lindhaus nozzles to be my best ones, I have both a PB12 and a PB14. I prefer the 12 because you can install a dual row brush in it like the aria platinum, as far as i know they do not make a dual row for the 14+ Wessell Werk: The EBK340 is amongst the best power nozzles i have ever used. while it lacks a height adjustment it works well on every carpet type we have Riccar/Simplicity: I had one on my Riccar 1700, it too had a two row brush the performance was good, but i had a problem with it triggering the reset on the carpet we have in the living room even after replacing the switch the problem remained. As for the others Sebo: I haven't directly tested with ET-1 against other nozzles so i will not comment on it, but I don't like the ET-C It was on the lower end of performance and it's grooming was mediocre Aerus: Their power nozzles have always been a weak point There is always the Sweep and Groom nozzles, which use the Vibragroomer 3, those are some nice nozzles. |

The ET-C is the older floor head by SEBO that not many use now - the auto height adjustment has never really worked for me, or anyone else I have spoken to. The ET-H is the replacement with an auto dial that doesn't work all that well, either.
The ET-1 is so much better and it is fitted to the SEBO Felix upright as standard as well as the canister/cylinder vacs such as K3, E3 and D4. It has 4 manual height adjustments and a brush roll on/off button. Also an indicator if the brush roll is set too high or where a blockage might occur. It is quite a robust unit that is fitted to lots of commercial units as well as other brands - Sauber for example use the ET-1 on some of their canister vacs. Easy to use and has a push button to release the side panel door to pull out the entire brush roll. SEBO wanted to concentrate all of the controls in one area, which is why the ET-1 has a brush roll on/off button. However, the commercial ET-1 PN's do not have that brush roll on/off feature, so be careful to bear that in mind if you are considering it. |
