Help choosing vacuum model? Sebo E1 vs E3 vs Miele C3
I live in an 950 sq foot apartment No floor to floor carpet (don’t intend to have carpets ever I do not like them) I do have very small low pile washable area rugs that get hairy And I live in Canada with snow so those darn shoe mats
I’m currently using an actual loud shop vac for my hard floors because it has a bag and hepa, I don’t think it’s fully sealed though which I want.
4 short haired cats
Here’s why I can’t decide; Do I need a powered brush for those type of area rugs? With the large change in cost i can’t decide, E1 says low tolerance for pet hair but is that in reference to the brush power or are the actual suction powers different? I don’t see any of them having the option for a powered mini brush… it seems like the mini handheld brushes are all air powered. (Cat trees) I like the Sebo pink colour, Miele C3 is on sale for 700$ right now, but after adding the parquet brush and mini brush attachment it’s approaching the price of the E3. Does the E3 cable automatically wind up as well? What about the E1?
Does the E3 have a hepa exhaust filter?? On the chart it says it does, but the refills look like the “S class”… which seems to be an exclusive “class” to Sebo and not an industry standard.
