I was thinking of buying a turbo brush for my sebo for doing stairs.

Are they any good?

Cant comment on the Sebo turbo brush

I use a Home-Tek Hunter 770w rotary brush for stairs and suites.
About £35 +p&p on Ebay - hepafilter as well

Arthur, i found little better at cleaning stairs than using the small tool to do the bulk of the cleaning and then going over the whole lot (corners, edges, treads, risers) with the crevice tool. The turbo tools that are suction-driven are only as good as the suction power driving the turbine - and as the dust bag gets clogged with dust and what-not that performance drops considerably.


The Sebo turbo brush is the exact same brush as used on Electrolux, Hoover, Dyson, and others, in other words its not an exclusive part rather its a generic part with the Sebo label on it. Anyway, i've used this tool before (albiet on a Hoover and not Sebo, but its the same one) and i didnt rate it at all. Also it doesnt get very near to the edges either front or side on.

I like Hunter but do feal that Filters clog easy then doing stairs and dirty suites.

In Photo I saw of The NCCA hands on day I think at Kidderminster there was a power bruch attached to a vac what make was that?

I've used the turbo brush for the past 10 months and found it excellent on stairs. My main hoover is the Sebo BS36, i cahnge the bags regularly.

I have to say that for deep-vacuum cleaning stairs i am inclined to just go over them with the upright vacuum as it is. Trouble is on some cleaners the handle is too bloomin' long to cope with and on some the suction and/or rotating brushes doesn't/don't start until the handle is lowered.

I think it's something the average housewife could have a lot of fun with whilst vacuuming the duvet.

Those dirt-devil handys were actually quite good as they had a revolvong brush, but they didnt get into the edges. You still needed a hose.

I use sebo bs36 with hospital filter and cloth bag power brush great on stairs. No filter clogging or bags wash bag once a week and rotate between two.
