Sebo X4 Bagged Upright Vacuum

In many ways the Sebo X4 is a first rate product. It is light to push has good suction and is easy to operate. We have owned one for about 5 years and bought it from a local store and paid a lot of money for it. We were prepared to do this as we thought we were buying into a reliable product. What a mistake! In the five years we have owned it it has been returned to the manufacturer once for the drive shaft to be replaced at a cost of #50/#60 and now the same fault has arisen again. We have now decided to ditch the product and put the #50 or so towards another product.
