I got one a few weeks back, love it.

I now use it with the red brushes and some carpets look done before I even clean them,  ;D ;D ;D ;D
it realy lifts the pile

I'm thinking of ordering one of the re-usable bags as the thing lifts that much crap up the bags fill well quick ;)

Fantastic bit of kit

DON'T FORGET if you fit the re-usable bag you need to fit the hospital grade filter too.

I got a reusable bag for a Henry.
Found it to be a bit of a pain in as much it needs proper cleaning to keep the filtration effect. Too much time washing and drying it.
Sebo paper filters are available off Ebay and are very cheap.

Hi Michael.

I have a Sebo BS36 (badged Karcher) for the carpet cleaning, along with a Kirby G4

I have a Sebo Felix for home (similar to Dart), narrower width then the BS36 so handier for home use, but bag capacity is less then BS36.

and a Henry from when I used to do more on the general domestic/office cleaning.

do cheap bags do the job. I used morrisons own bags for the henry, then bought numatic ones from argos, and the difference is like night and day. Does it pay to spend extra?

Your probably right Gary, just that carpet cleaners can be price-shoppers  ;D

I have always used the BS 36 and i agree it is a great vac, although i must admit it is very rare i pre-vac these days.
I have found the Dyson to be far more effective on pet hairs than the Sebo though.

Any one of you guys can tell me how you fit the Red brush ?

Thanks in anticipation .

Take out the black first  ;)

Looking from the front of the machine, on the left hand side is a plate with a single screw.
Undo and remove screww and plate.
Should be able to pull the old brush ourt and push the new one in.
Spend next 5 minutes looking for the little screw that holds the plate.
