ONE UPRIGHT FOR THE WHOLE HOME

Made for homes with carpet, rugs and hard floors

Most homes aren’t just one kind of floor. There’s carpet in the bedrooms, an area rug in the living room and hardwood or tile everywhere else. The Felix is built for exactly that mix.

On carpet and rugs, the ET-1 electric powerhead does the deep cleaning and lifts pet hair. On bare floors, you swap to the Premium Parquet Brush, which glides on soft bristles instead of a spinning brush. Two floorheads, each doing the job it’s best at, in an upright that’s light on its feet.

SWIVEL STEERING

An upright that turns where you turn

Traditional uprights go straight, so you end up pushing and pulling them around chair legs. The Felix swivels 180°: turn your wrist and it follows, around table legs, along baseboards and between furniture.

It also lies almost flat to the floor, so the powerhead reaches under beds, sofas and other low furniture. The handle adjusts to three heights, and variable suction with a soft start sits right on the handle.

TWO FLOORHEADS

An electric powerhead for carpet, and a parquet brush for hard floors

The 12-inch ET-1 electric powerhead has its own motor-driven brushroll for carpet, rugs and pet hair. Set it to one of four heights to match your carpet, and a warning light lets you know if the setting is off or the brushroll is getting worn.

For hardwood, tile and other bare floors, swap in the included Premium Parquet Brush. Its soft bristles and small wheels move easily without a spinning brush. Have a delicate rug? Switch the brushroll off and the ET-1 cleans with suction alone.

DETACHABLE SUCTION UNIT

Lift it off for stairs and upholstery

The Felix’s suction unit comes off the floorhead, so you can carry it up the stairs and use the built-in 6-foot hose with the crevice tool or dusting brush. It’s handy for stair treads, sofa cushions, baseboards and the car.

One honest note: it’s an upright, so the hose is shorter than a canister’s and above-floor reach is more limited. For quick jobs it’s great. If you clean drapes, ceilings and a lot of upholstery, a Sebo canister will reach farther.

EASY MAINTENANCE

Hair wrapped around the brush? It comes right out

If you have pets or long hair in the house, you know hair wraps around the brushroll. On the Felix, the brushroll slides out without tools, so clearing it takes a minute instead of a pair of scissors and patience.

The ET-1 also protects itself. If something jams the brushroll, a light comes on and the brush shuts off, and the brush stops automatically when you switch to the hose.

  • Brushroll comes out without tools
  • Obstruction light with automatic shut-off
  • Full bag or clog indicator

BAGGED DESIGN & S-CLASS FILTRATION

Dust goes in the bag, and stays there

The Felix is a bagged vacuum with Sebo’s S-Class filtration in a sealed system. What you vacuum up is held in a disposable three-layer bag, so you aren’t emptying a dusty bin over the trash can.

  1. Three-layer filter bag holds dirt, dust and hair, and holds 0.92 gallons.
  2. Pre-motor filter protects the motor from anything that gets past the bag.
  3. S-Class exhaust microfilter cleans the air once more on its way out.

Engineered and built in Germany, and designed to be repaired, the Felix is a vacuum you can keep for years.

Too good-looking for the closet

Most vacuums spend their lives behind a closet door. The Felix keeps ending up in the picture instead. It’s a serious German-made cleaner that happens to have a sense of style.

Is the Sebo Felix right for your home?

Here’s where it really shines, and when a canister might suit you better.

MIXED FLOORING

Carpet, rugs and hard floors

The ET-1 handles carpet and area rugs, and the Premium Parquet Brush takes care of hardwood, tile and laminate.

PETS & LONG HAIR

Shedding pets and long hair

The powerhead lifts pet hair from carpet, and when hair wraps the brushroll, it comes out without tools.

FURNITURE

Lots of furniture to clean around

Swivel steering follows you around chairs and tables, and it lies nearly flat to reach under beds and sofas.

STAIRS

Stairs and quick touch-ups

Lift off the suction unit and use the hose and tools on stairs, cushions and baseboards.

UPRIGHT FANS

You’d rather have an upright

No canister to pull along behind you. Everything is in one piece that stands up on its own.

When a canister might suit you better: the Felix’s 6-foot hose is great for stairs and quick jobs, but it doesn’t reach as far as a canister. If you clean a lot of drapes, ceilings, upholstery or long staircases, look at the Sebo E3 Premium or the Sebo D4 Premium. They use the same ET-1 powerhead, with a long hose and wand. Not sure? Ask us.

Sebo Felix vs. Sebo Dart

The Felix and Dart share the same ET-1 electric powerhead, filtration, bag and cord, so they clean carpet the same way. The Felix adds features that make it easier to steer and adjust.

If you have mostly carpet, don’t need to adjust the suction and like a straightforward upright, the Sebo Dart is an excellent vacuum for less. Choose the Felix if you have hard floors too, lots of furniture to steer around, or more than one person using it. See all of our most recommended vacuums.

I am absolutely loving my new SEBO Felix! It is so easy to maneuver around and I actually feel like my house is getting cleaner than my previous choice in vacuums which was a Shark. I debated and researched a long time about upgrading and I’m so glad I did. Geek Vacuums was great to order from and shipped it very quickly with everything arriving in great condition. They even threw in a nice fragrance freebie which I enjoy too. Thank you.

Thank you Miles!

We recently purchased the Sebo Felix Vacuum Cleaner. We absolutely love this vacuum! The first time we used it, we saw a noticeable difference in the color of our carpets. We had no idea that our old vacuum was leaving so much dirt and pet fur behind. Due to the suction strength, I expected it to be really loud; however, it's shockingly low-volume. I can easily run this while my toddler is sleeping and not have to worry about waking her up. The customer service here is EXCELLET. Miles worked with us to find the best vacuum to fit our needs. He was knowledgeable and quick to respond to questions. We HIGHLY recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions About the Sebo Felix

Is the Sebo Felix good for carpet and hardwood floors?

Yes, and that’s what it does best. The ET-1 electric powerhead cleans carpet and area rugs, and the included Premium Parquet Brush is made for hardwood, tile and laminate. You can also switch the brushroll off for delicate rugs.

What’s the difference between the Sebo Felix and the Dart?

They share the same ET-1 powerhead, bag, filtration and 31-foot cord, so carpet cleaning is the same. The Felix adds 180° swivel steering, variable suction, a three-position handle and the Premium Parquet Brush, and the brush stops automatically when you use the hose. The Dart is a great, less expensive choice if you don’t need those extras.

Is the Sebo Felix good for pet hair?

Yes. The ET-1’s motor-driven brushroll lifts pet hair from carpet and rugs, and when hair wraps around the brushroll, it slides out without tools. Everything you pick up goes into a sealed bag, so emptying it isn’t a dusty job.

Can the Sebo Felix be used on stairs?

Yes. Lift the suction unit off the floorhead and carry it up the stairs, then use the 6-foot hose with the crevice tool or dusting brush. The hose is shorter than a canister’s, so for long staircases or a lot of above-floor cleaning, a canister like the Sebo E3 reaches farther. An optional extension hose is also available; ask us about it.

Does the Sebo Felix have HEPA filtration?

No. The Felix uses Sebo’s S-Class filtration rather than a HEPA filter, and there’s no HEPA option for it. Air passes through a three-layer bag, a pre-motor filter and an exhaust microfilter, inside a sealed system so air can’t slip around the filters. If you have specific allergy concerns, chat with us and we’ll talk through your options.

What warranty comes with the Sebo Felix?

When you buy your Felix from us, an authorized Sebo dealer, it qualifies for Sebo’s extended warranty: 10 years on the motor and non-wear parts and 7 years on labor, subject to Sebo’s terms. The powerhead keeps Sebo’s standard 5-year coverage, and wear parts like the brushroll, bags and filters aren’t included.

Keep your order confirmation and register your Felix at warranty.sebo.us. If anything goes wrong, contact us first and we’ll help from there.

Is the Sebo Felix easy to maintain?

Very. The brushroll comes out without tools, the bag is easy to change, and lights tell you when the bag is full, the brushroll is jammed or the height setting is off. Replace the filter bags (7029AM) as they fill, and the motor protection filter (7012AM) from time to time.
