Nice videos, Matt. I believe Roger has also bought one and has also done a video on it.
I didn't buy one of those - instead I plucked for a second hand SM1 upright with the manual height adjustment control and couldn't be happier. I had an SM2 before that but it had a serious rumbling problem. These new SEBO X uprights also have LED's compared to older bulbs. They seem to react more quickly judged by your videos. | ||

Great pictures, overview and videos matt8808 on your new SEBO purchase. Great to hear you like the new boost feature and interesting to hear and see more about how the boost button works. Great to see the automatic function still works when the boost button is pressed/activated but not as much. Fab new feature be interesting if it will feature on the rest of the X series especially come 900 watt limit next year!
I'm told SEBO didn't want to increase the price of the X4 Pet Eco when they added the boost button so removed the dusting brush to keep the price the same. Suppose for an additional increase of say £10 they could of kept it! My Mum has just got a X4 Pro Eco (Indepandent Store) which is the same spec as the Extra or John Lewis Excel but that doesn't come with a dusting brush either. Need to get her one! I see you purchased one was it the larger dusting brush? How do you find the 1100 watt motor compared to the older 1300 watt version? Having used my Mum's I can't see any difference personally especially compared to my older 1300 watt Felix. I only ask as some of the reviews I read on Amazon and other sites some owners of the new X series Eco models comment they are not as powerful as their older machines!!! Having not used an X series much until I advised my Mum to get one and used hers I love using it and would love one! Not sure which model I would go for, do like the Dark Grey X4 Pro Eco and the Black X4 Pet Eco Boost! | ||

I wonder if I have time to go get hit by a bus 😉 Before finish reading this thread. Lol
In all seriousness, it seems a very good feature but, still, Sebo need to pull their finger out and make a manual height model of the X series, although there is Felix, yes, I prefer a proper upright and the X series is actually nice to use when it makes full clntact with the carpet and, well, on a regular X series, there is more chance of snow in the shariah desert. | ||

Maraboutsebo - yes its the larger dusting brush I got. Genuine sebo part obviously :) In regards to power, i haven't noticed any difference. And its not like 200w is going to make any difference on an upright OMHO And Alex.... I'm back at work tomorrow so I'll come run you over with my bus if you like? ;) | ||

its not like 200w is going to make any difference It's funny, some brands/models it makes a huge difference. For example, there is a noticeable difference between the earlier 650w and later 700w Panasonic 40 series and again the 700w and 900w of the later 40 and 50 series, but there's absolutely no noticeable suction difference between the 1150w Sebo X1.1 and 1300w X4. | ||

Alex, I thought you were going to turn a new leaf?
Looks like you haven't really learnt your lesson. And there is a manual adjuster SEBO X - its just under another name in the UK: Task Ensign SM1 - has a 1300 watt motor.

Well Alex, sadly my bus is knackered and I'm sat waiting for a fitter to come and brining it back to life, so I'll have to come run you over some other day

It isn't that I don't like them, I don't like how they perform, it doesn't dig deep enough into the pile. I hate the constant adjusting it is rather displeasing. I don't think they are exactly bad cleaners over all. I have thought about getting the boost model but is rather an inconvenience to press that button all the time because I know I would, so, like I said, I wpuld rather have a manual height adjustment on one of the domestic models.
It does look rather striking that X4 boost, I must say. Very nice Matt. | ||

The beauty of SEBO is that you can also buy the more commercially based BS36 if you're really after manual height adjustment, plus you'll get a metal brush roll bar with slide in strips like an old Hoover classic upright. That way you'll get the manual height adjustment, commercial quality AND a similar hose and wand set up like the X series. Of course they use different bags but the SEBO 370 also uses the same X series dust bags, as does the newer Evolution model.

Thanks Matt8808 for confirming which dusting brush you purchased. Might get the larger one for my Mum's X4 Pro. Why of course it has to be a genuine one :)
Thanks for confirming about the power, didn't think there would be a noticeable difference just thought I'd ask from the general pubic reviews I've read! | ||

Mike, sorry to sound dense, but what does that have to do with Alex being hit by Matt's bus? Alex was the one who mentioned being hit by bus rather than reading this thread, Matt was pointing out that, as he is a bus driver, that can be arranged.
Not really sure what the "Your first always holds a special place in your heart." has to do with it unless Alex and Matt are having some kind of affair which I highly doubt. | ||

Yes.. well.. whatever
The smaller triangular brush has always annoyed me. Even with the k1 700 or E1-700 watt cylinders, the smaller triangular brush bristles always want to get sucked in. Not a problem for the bigger one which actually works better. I also find the dusting brush from the D2 series great for the K and E series vacs. If the neck was a bit longer it could be used on the X series. | ||

No, no horse comments. I know of a radio show personality who lost a job for saying Torrey Spelling had a horse face on the air. | ||

So are those light switches or something else above the ostrich fellow duster? Your electrical systems are a little different than ours. :-) | ||
