I can be happy with the plug in models.It is low cost-actually cheaper than Oreck and Simplicity-Riccar models.Will see if the Sebo dealer here can get these.He has gotten NO info from Sebo regarding these vacuums.Seems like its a good value. | ||

An excellent question
I don't have an actual answer but just speculating there are multiple possibilities
1. a clutch setup to prevent damage in case of a fan jam 2. overdrive! like the inverse of gear reduction where you would sacrifice torque for increased speed. 3. Placement. Maybe they just couldn't get the setup to work they way they wanted without it? | ||

I hope these will succeed
I just have a feeling they're going to flop like the Shop Vac EasyLift or the ProTeam FreeFlex for example since those didn't lasted very long on the market. I think they're great to have for the collection but as a consumer, I have a hard time seeing why I'd buy this over their other models like the X series or even it's competition like Oreck or Riccar.

Thank you for sharing the video! I am very very interested in this. I saw the Karcher Ranger factory refurbished on eBay for $199, and was tempted, but the color scheme isn't for me. But I'm mostly concerned about bag/parts availability. It's not standardized and I think we'll have to see how long it lasts on the market. A great addition to a collection but maybe not for everyday use.
Definitely going to keep an eye on this thread for any updates. The white Sebo looks so much better than the Karcher and I'll probably end up buying one once it hits the states. | ||

Overdrive!
So I saw this video on youtube which showed the interior of the battery model which does use a larger gear to overdrive the fan. I'd assume it's similar on the corded model but the lack of schematics doesn't allow me to confirm.

So it looks like Sebo has invented the 1935 Air-Way DirtMasteR. It had a single motor that drove the fan(s) with a belt as well as drove the beater-bar brush roll (with "steel tipped rubber vibrators"). The Air-Way had a novel way of closing off the suction to the brush for an attachment hose. There's a wonderful video on youtube by Owen Perkins of his DirtMasteR and how it works.

I hope that they come out with a 2 speed version. That’s the only thing holding me back. | ||

With that separate belt going to the brush roll, they could add an option to turn off the brush roll for bare floor cleaning. Might be a nice feature to add in the future. I guess it would mean adding a “belt loosening” mechanism similar to that which we’ve seen on Kenmores and Hoovers and Eureka’s SmartVac.

I don't think We'll be seeing the Sebo in the US for awhile. The equivalent we have here is the Karcher Ranger, both the corded and cordless. The corded is at an affordable price point too | ||

Does anyone have a Sebo dealer contact here in the states with these in stock? There's a dealer in Canada that seems willing to ship it here but I'd be worried about returns if something went wrong. I think the Sebo looks way better than the Karcher.

They may be already having a hard time selling those, I bet that's why they're putting it at a discount. I mean don't get me wrong, that's indeed a very good deal but as I mentioned previously, why would I buy one over something else with attachments on-board and better features? I could possibly consider one if they come out with a lightweight compact canister like Oreck or Riccar as a companion to those.
