I did look at the dart, very light weight but would it out perform the 36??

I use the X4 which is the domestic version and I find it great. Can't offer a comparison to the 36 as I've never handled one but for the difference in price you may as well go for the 36

My missus wanted to commandeer my Dart2 when i got it so had to buy her a Dart1 for indoors !!

I use the BS46 which is same motors as 36 but 10 cm wider, it's quite heavy but if this oldish guy can manage I'm sure you fit young lads can.

Cheers

Get some stiffer red brushes for the roller and it will work even better! ;D

Post by: Paul_Ashworth on June 07, 2008, 07:03:45 pm: Think i will try the red brushes as mine are getting worn, get you buy them off the Sebo website ??

You wont regret buying at BS36 they are excellent, invest in a powerbrush they are great for upholstery and saves carrying a cylinder hoover about.

Cheers Paul

Post by: john rees on June 08, 2008, 07:45:39 am: Hi Paul,
I bought my red brushes on ebay, I use a power brush too but I do notice that it is spins a lot faster and works a lot better with a felix/dart than a bs36. If you have both vacs give it a try, might be just me?

All the best
John
