German engineering, now without the cord
For nearly 50 years, SEBO has built vacuums known for durability, serviceability, and thoughtful design. The BALANCE A1 is SEBO's first cordless stick vacuum, and it brings that same approach to a 5 lb machine you can grab for a quick pass or use to clean the whole house.
What makes the BALANCE A1 different
-
Two brush rolls in the box. Most stick vacuums give you one floorhead brush and leave you to make it work on every surface. The BALANCE A1 includes a MultiCare universal brush roll for everyday carpets, rugs, and floors, plus a soft-bristle MicroCare roll for hard floors and delicate looped carpets. Swap them in seconds to match your floors.
-
A real trigger switch, not a hold-down button. Press once to start and once to stop. You never have to squeeze a trigger for the whole clean, so your hand stays comfortable.
-
A station that keeps everything together. The included stand holds the vacuum, floorhead, and tools in one spot, and it can be wall-mounted instead if you'd rather save floor space. No more hunting for the crevice tool.
-
A removable battery. The battery slides off the handle and charges on or off the vacuum. When it eventually wears out, you replace the battery, not the vacuum.
-
Built-in protection. A soft-start motor ramps up gradually to reduce wear. If a clog forms or the brush roll jams, the vacuum shuts off automatically to protect the motor from overheating and damage.
Key features and benefits
-
Strong suction from a digital brushless motor. It spins at more than 100,000 rpm and pulls up fine dust, sand, and hair, so you get a deep clean, not just a surface pass.
-
Up to 48 minutes of runtime. That's 48 minutes on Power Level 1, or up to 20 minutes on Level 3 for tougher jobs. It's enough to clean most homes on a single charge.
-
Three power levels with an LED display. The display shows battery charge as a percentage and your power setting as a bar graph, so you always know how much cleaning time is left.
-
Multi-stage cyclonic filtration. A main cyclone separates coarse debris, six mini-cyclones handle fine particles, and a motor protection filter and micro-hygiene filter capture fine dust before the air goes back into the room.
-
LED power brush with anti-hair-wrap technology. The low-profile swivel head shows hidden dust with its headlamp, slides under furniture, and is designed to keep hair from tangling around the brush roll.
-
Six tools and brushes included. Including an LED crevice tool that lights up like a Star Wars lightsaber. Your kids/grandkids will love it!
-
Easy to carry. At about 5 lbs, it's easy to take up and down stairs, lift overhead, or switch to handheld mode for furniture and cars.
Made for the way you actually clean
-
Daily touch-ups: Keep it on its station and grab it for crumbs under the table, entryway dirt, or a quick pass before guests arrive.
-
Hard floors and area rugs: Use the MicroCare roll on hardwood, LVP, and tile, and switch to the MultiCare roll for rugs and carpet.
-
Pet hair: Anti-hair-wrap technology on the main floorhead and the motorized mini power brush handle shedding on floors, stairs, pet beds, and upholstery.
-
Stairs and upholstery: The mini power brush cleans carpeted stairs, and the dusting/upholstery nozzle takes care of cushions, mattresses, and fabric furniture.
-
High and hard-to-reach spots: Pair the extension hose with the LED crevice nozzle to clean baseboards, ceiling corners, car seats, and the dark gap beside the fridge.
-
A second vacuum for upstairs, apartments, and condos: It's compact enough for smaller spaces and has enough runtime to clean a full floor.
Why buy from A-1 Vacuum?
We're an authorized SEBO dealer with our own repair shop here in Lexington. We can show you the BALANCE A1 in person, help you pick the right brush roll for your floors, and stock the filters, brush rolls, and replacement batteries that keep it running for years. When it needs service, you can bring it to people who know it inside and out.
Is it right for you?
If you are looking for a vacuum to help you with the everyday quick clean jobs then the Balance needs to be on your shortlist. Especially if you are looking for something light and easy to use.
In our tests, the BALANCE A1 excelled at frequent cleaning of fine dust, hair, sand, and everyday debris. It picked up everything from cat litter to pet fur with no problem.
For large, irregular debris like popcorn, pebbles, or wood chips, or for weekly deep cleaning of large wall-to-wall carpeted areas, we recommend pairing it with a full-size Miele, Riccar or SEBO vacuum. Ask us, and we'll help you choose the right combination for your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to hold a trigger down while vacuuming? No. The SEBO Balance A1 features a continuous on/off switch, completely eliminating the finger and wrist fatigue common with trigger-operated stick vacuums.
How long does the battery last?The interchangeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 48 minutes of uninterrupted runtime on the lowest setting (Level 1). On Level 2, it runs for approximately 27 minutes, and on the maximum boost setting (Level 3), it provides 12 to 20 minutes of intense suction.
Is this a bagged or bagless vacuum?Unlike SEBO's traditional uprights, the Balance A1 is a bagless vacuum featuring a 0.38-liter dust bin. It utilizes a multi-stage cyclone separation system paired with a motor protection filter and a micro-hygiene filter to trap fine dust and allergens.
How does it handle pet hair? Exceptionally well. The main LED power floorhead is equipped with self-cleaning, anti-hair-wrap technology to prevent tangles. It also includes a motorized Mini Power Brush specifically designed for lifting pet hair from upholstery, stairs, and tight spaces.
What is the warranty?The SEBO Balance A1 comes with a 2-year warranty on parts and labor, and a 1-year warranty on the battery.
What happens if something goes wrong with it? We don't sell anything we don't repair. So simply call us or bring the machine in and we will get you back to vacuuming with your SEBO Balance as quickly as possible.
