SEBO Felix Premium Upright Vacuum | Pet Hair & Allergies | Lexington Repair Experts | A-1 Vacuum KY

Our #1 Best-Selling Upright Across All Brands

If you’re looking for one vacuum that truly handles a real home—hardwood, rugs, carpet, pets, stairs, and everyday messes—the SEBO Felix Upright is the vacuum we recommend most often, and the one our customers choose more than any other upright we sell.

At A-1 Vacuum Sales & Service, the Felix isn’t just popular—it’s proven. It’s our most frequently sold upright across all brands, because it strikes the rare balance between deep-cleaning performance, everyday usability, and long-term reliability. No gimmicks. No disposable design. Just a vacuum that works—and keeps working.

Designed for Mixed Flooring (Because That’s Real Life)

Most homes in Central Kentucky don’t have just one type of flooring. You’ve got hardwood in the main living areas, rugs in high-traffic zones, and carpet in bedrooms. The SEBO Felix was built specifically for that kind of reality.

Its powered ET-1 brush roll digs deep into carpet fibers to pull out embedded dust, grit, and pet hair, while the swivel neck and height adjustment make it effortless to move around furniture, under furniture, onto rugs, and hard surfaces. You’re not switching machines or compromising suction—you’re adjusting one vacuum to do it all.

Expensive area rugs, or floors you don’t want to risk a brush roll near?  Then the Felix lets you switch the brush roll off and just use its powerful suction.  Or perhaps you have a lot of hard floors; the Felix includes a bonus hard-floor tool designed specifically for this.

This is why so many of our customers use the Felix as their primary, everyday vacuum, even when they own other specialty machines.

Bagged Is Better (For Clean Floors and Clean Air)

SEBO vacuums are well-known for their hospital-grade filtration.

The Felix uses a sealed, bagged filtration system, which means what you vacuum up stays sealed inside the bag—no dust clouds, no fine debris blowing back into your home.

For allergy-sensitive households, pet owners, and anyone tired of emptying a bin while holding their breath, this matters more than most people realize. The multi-layer bags serve as part of the filtration system, capturing fine particles while maintaining strong airflow from first use to last.

Bagless vacuums look convenient on a shelf. Bagged vacuums perform better over time. That’s why we still believe—strongly—that bagged vacuums are better.

Flexible by Design (Not Complicated)

One reason the Felix stands out is its modular, adjustable design, but it’s important to understand why that matters.

The handle adjusts easily to your height, improving comfort and control. The body separates quickly for stair cleaning.

Let me repeat that. Remove the power head to get an easily portable handheld.  You get two vacuums for the price of one.

The brush roll pops out without tools, making hair and thread removal simple instead of frustrating.  There's a built-in door in the base so you can remove clogs. These aren’t “features for the sake of features”—they’re practical design choices that make the vacuum easier to live with year after year.

The Felix also happens to look a little different than most uprights—and customers who appreciate good design often notice that right away. It’s a vacuum that feels intentional, not disposable.

Built to Be Repaired, Not Replaced

Here’s the part most online reviews don’t talk about: longevity.

The SEBO Felix is built with commercial-grade, durable, serviceable components, not glued-together plastic meant to be thrown away. With normal care, this is a vacuum designed to last 10–20 years, not 2–3.

And because we service what we sell, you’re never on your own. We stock bags, filters, belts, and parts right here in Lexington. When something wears out—as all machines eventually do—you fix it. You don’t replace the entire vacuum.

That single difference changes the total cost of ownership dramatically.

Who the SEBO Felix Is Perfect For

• Homeowners with mixed flooring who want one vacuum that actually handles it all
• Pet owners who want real hair removal, not surface-level pickup
• Allergy-sensitive households who care about clean air, not just clean floors
• Buyers who are tired of replacing “good enough” vacuums every few years
• Anyone who values buying once and buying right

Why We Recommend It So Often

We don’t sell hype—we sell machines we see come back for routine maintenance instead of replacement. The Felix earns its reputation every year for being reliable, adaptable, and easy to maintain.

It’s not the flashiest vacuum we carry. It’s not the most expensive.  It’s just the one that quietly becomes the most-used.

And that’s exactly why it’s our best seller.
