hey all i have another little project i recently acquired, its a powr-flite commercial upright, now when i first saw it i thought, is that a sebo?? sure enough the power head from what i can tell is made by them but powr-flite is made by the tacony corporation and has nothing to do with sebo apparently, or from what i can tell anyway. so far all the parts that i need i can only buy from the company, cant really find any info on this vacuum besides sales brochures they have on their site, i attached a link to the site maybe some one can enlighten me?
and another thing that makes me think its a sebo is it has the little door on the end to change the brush without removing the roller looks identical to a sebo

I know what you mean! For years I was under an impression that the Nilco/IVAC vac I was using was a SEBO.

IVAC also makes the Easy Vac.





The underside is very similar to SEBO/Windsor uprights.

so i see its actually more common than i thought for other companies to re-badge a sebo haha. i havent used this one yet, im fixing it for a client, and am finding its kinda annowing finding parts for it already.
im used to fixing kirbys darnit and there are parts everywhere lol. all i need for this one is a new brush roll insert and a belt, which i can find. oh and possibly a new cord

The IVAC you have thought isn't a SEBO so there won't be many parts that are compatible as far as I know. Look up gsheen on here as he has a few of the IVACS and might be able to help you further. His email is dysonservice@gmail.com

Contact Powr Flite. You don't need an account with them. They do accept credit cards to order parts for the machine in question. They have the schematics for their equipment and you can order online.
