First and foremost, all Sebo X7 vacuum cleaners are ostensibly identical in the basic specification.
Sebos tend to last somewhat longer..The Sebo above is a commercial model we fixed recently that says “Made in.
Germany” on the back.That means it pre-dates 1989.(when the Berlin wall came down).
We refurbished it and now it’s good for another few decades..The difference between Dyson and Sebo is that Dyson tries to reinvent the wheel every few years.
Every new model.
and there are many.He brought it along expecting to dump it, leave it for spares, or maybe get a packet of bags for it for the new one he might buy.. After a conversation, it turns out it had some sentimental value to him.
And as it is a relatively rare machine nowadays that has a cool retro industrial vibe about it, he asked us if we could repair and restore it for less than the cost of a new one.Here’s the result..
It was a lot more work than the average repair as it was cosmetically refurbished as well, but it came out well didn’t it?.So yes, that old Sebo X1 that you bought in the 1990s, or the X4 you bought in the 2000s from John Lewis may well be worth repairing.
