German modular upright. Built for 20+ years of use.
The Felix is SEBO's icon — a modular upright that disassembles into an upright, hand vac, or canister with a swap of the head. Every component is repairable, not disposable.
Customers who want the longest-lifespan vacuum in the shop and don't mind paying for it.
“The favorite of professional cleaners worldwide. If you want it to last, this is it.”
— The Sawtooth team
What buyers ask us before they choose this system.
German modular construction. Nearly every component is designed to be replaced rather than disposed of, the filtration is hospital-grade S-Class, and motors carry long warranties. The purchase price is higher and the cost per year of ownership is usually lower.
For allergy and asthma households, bagged wins clearly. The bag is the primary filter, it seals the dust in, and you throw it away without a cloud of dander in the laundry room. Bagless saves you the cost of bags but re-releases fine dust every time you empty the bin and requires regular filter cleaning to keep suction up.
The machines we carry are built for 10 to 20 years of household use. Riccar and Simplicity uprights routinely pass a decade with a belt and filter here and there; SEBO's modular German build regularly runs 20-plus years because nearly every component is replaceable rather than disposable.
A HEPA filter alone means little if air can bypass it through gaps in the housing. Sealed HEPA means the entire airflow path is gasketed so everything the machine picks up actually goes through the filter. If anyone in the house has allergies or asthma, this is the single spec worth paying for.
Everything. Bags, belts, filters, brush rolls, cords, hoses, and motors for every brand on our floor are stocked or orderable, and repairs are handled in our own Twin Falls shop rather than shipped off to a regional depot.
