Is the felix the same as the dart can you use the canister with out the floor tool attached
and are there any differences

cheers Jim

[Kev Loomes]

As far as I remember the Felix is for public to buy and the Dart for trade only, and although looking exactly the same, I would presume that the construction/quality of parts is better on the Dart - as you would expect being used daily in the trade.

On this basis I imagine that the Felix is cheaper.

But I could be wrong

Kev

You are correct felix is cheaper want one for the house but like the idea of using it as a hand held

My old vacuum resigned yesterday (my sebo duo died on tuesday, my lawnmower on wednesday and my pressure sprayer this morning), so I went to buy a new one this morning. Had a look at the felix, seems to be good value for money. The dart comes in 3 different variations. Basically the Felix is the domestic the dart is the commercial version. I bought a BS36 at the end.

[richie]

Where are you guys looking for the prices.   From the search i just did on google the Dart 1 & 2 and the felix are all about the same price

[jim mca]

Ritchie
Felix £186 / Dart £209 just buy the dart 

[richie]

Yeah not a lot of difference at all is there.   Also, can anyone confirm for sure that theres any difference in the 2 apart from one claased as DOMESTIC and the other COMMERCIAL.   Id think the chances are that they are the same just different colours.

[Craigp]

There is a big difference, the dart, like the BS36, has TWO motors, one for brushes one for vacuum.

The Felix, along with all other sebo domestic machines only has one motor shared for brushes and vacuum.


All Sebo commercial BS and Darts are twin motor vacuums.

[Paul Redden Countryfresh]

I have a Felix and there are two motors, one separate for brushes and one for vac, there is no attachment on the felix such as a hose which works off the cannister.

[john rees]

they are exactly the same vacuum cleaner!

[richie]

Thats why i said it appears they are the same.  I cant see the construction been any different and as the insides are the same........that means Craigs comment goes o the wall

[Craigp]

Ignore me I got that wrong. Sorry I misinformed you. 

It does look identical.

I'm sure that was the case when I was looking at them before buying my BS36 maybe it's their other domestic vacs that have one motor.

[Craigp]

I just had a look, what I said is correct for BS36 vs domestic version

But not the case for Dart vs Felix

See Richie, I'm sometimes a little bit wrong but never completely wrong 

[jim mca]

Found a you tube video felix does what we need for the house looked on the sebo site and found a aggitator for
