I've got a Sebo itch recently. I've used an old worn Versmatic before but never something new, including their power nozzle which seems to be a favorite among central vac dealers these days. The only issue is that here in the states they are absurdly expensive. $850 for the X4 and $550 for the Dart. I was doing some research tonight and saw on sebo.co.uk you can buy a brand new X7, which is nearly $1,100 here, for only £299.99, or about $360. Now that seems reasonable! On Amazon in Germany the same machine is €424.59.
Are there any major differences between the UK, Euro, and American markets? I'm assuming part of the price tag is high in the United States to give it a suggestion of quality and premium. It is definitely considered a higher-end brand here. Is it also considered a premium product in Europe? |

That's what I figured.
That's a nice collection! Which is your favorite? From most of the videos I've watched/specs I've seen it sounds like the Felix has an edge on cleaning ability/usability. Is the bag much smaller? It's been awhile since buying a new machine and I've very tempted to order one lol |

I had a D4 Premium many years ago and didn’t have any issues with the attachments falling out. I’ve had no issues with my current D8 either. They clip in nice and snug |

Ended up buying an X4 yesterday. Originally went in for a Dart but the handle weight was way heavier than the X4 and didn't feel as comfortable.
Really happy with the purchase. The plastic quality of the wand and attachments are a little thin for a $849 machine but it's quiet. Easier to use than any other upright I've owned. Being able to switch from floor to hose use easily has become very important to me. The dealer was playing an IBAISAIC video which I thought was interesting. |

I know there are some models Sebo doesn't import here but does in other countries including Canada. Other than the prices and colors, the only big differences that I see are the voltage and wattage. We do have the XP models but they are sold under the Windsor brand which you can get for alot cheaper than buying under the Sebo brand, just you'd lose the extra features. In addition to the Windsor Versamatic which is the same thing as the BS 360 and it's in my humble opinion the best upright Sebo has ever sold on the market.

The basic Sebo D1 canister vacuum costs CAD$650 here in Canada which is not bad for a full size canister vac with a 40 foot cord.
