SEBO E3 Premium VS Miele C3 2017

[@Tsch6373]

I notice that you tested the brand new Sebo against the Miele with its full bag and the Miele STILL performed very well!

[@PerformanceReviews]

+Terri S both will perform till the bag is stuffed full like a pillow!

[@vacuumnut8300]

Just got the Sebo E3. I was not sure if it would have enough power at 700 watts. Power and suction are not a problem. I really like this vacuum. Always been a fan of the ET-1 power head. I have tested it against other power heads and it beats out a lot of the competition especially when it comes to edge cleaning. I have found it easier to push and maneuver compared to the Miele S236 power head. The Sebo's wand is also lighter. Personally, I like having the dusting tool attached to the wand because I use the dusting tool a lot. It is a little tricky getting the upholstery tool out, but once you learn how it goes it is no problem. The E3 is super quiet. When I have the power head on I can't hear the vacuum. Really good design and great quality. Thank you Sebo and thanks for doing a review on it.

There are a lot of features on the Sebo that are cleverly designed. The pleated design of the secondary filtration on the Meile is superior and gives far more surface area than the Sebo single surface bag. Based on the results of your particle analyzer , the Meile also has a finer mesh and reduces the particulates to zero. Superior filtration alone is worth the extra money to me.
I finally retired our first Meile after 24 years and purchased another one just like it. They are awesome machines.

I've had my Miele S528 for 21 years and it's still as good as new. Crazy. Do you notice any qualitative difference between the new Miele's and the one you bought 24 years ago? I 'think' my S528 weighs 16 pounds and newer C3 machines are 13 pounds? Three pounds makes a difference for the better but I'm not sure there is any qualitative difference between old Miele's and new. What's your opinion?

[@josephbendzinski5797]

I looked at the miele machine and was ready to purchase. However, I changed to the sebo. I talked to my local vacume store about repair costs regarding the power head, they informed me that the miele power head requires an annual cleaning maintenance. Not at a reasonable price because of how complicated their 236 power head is. The sebo power head much less complicated and neede less maintenance time. Also bags and filters less cost than for miele.

[@PerformanceReviews]

SEBO definitely a more cost-effective machine.

[@loganaldridge6118]

Yup and our local sew and vac shop said they have been having troubles getting repair parts from Miele and that they never/hardly have to work on sebos but they did say they work on Miele pretty often witch tells me that the sebo makes more sense to own and operate lol in my own opinion Miele are for nose uppers sebos are for people who don't get caught up in life!:)

[@vacuumnut8300]

Nice comparison. Thank you. I would like to buy an E3 , but I find Sebo is still lacking some tools that Miele has. My favorite being the multi-angle dust brush. Sadly, Sebo has nothing for cleaning ceiling fans or the top of bookcases or shelves. I hope you can talk to them and request that they provide an articulated tool specifically for those cleaning tasks. Thank you.

[@PerformanceReviews]

If it's anything to you lindhaus uses the same fittings.Four basic attachments.

[@vacuumnut8300]

With my Lindhaus I discovered that my Miele multi-angle brush fits on the end of the wand. I use that to clean my ceiling fan and high up shelves. So are you saying that would also fit on the Sebo?

Get the little adapter for SEBO. Then almost any vac tool can be used. I purchase natural hair dusting brushes designed for central vac because they come in many shapes & sizes

Is that because you have never bought a sebo? Just bought one yesterday and I have everything and more that you just said doesn't exist?

[@shigsho]

NOTE: Big difference. The SEBO wand can lay flat and straight. The Miele can not. This is big if you have to vacuum under beds. I LOVE our Miele on hardwood floors but prefer our Sebo for under beds and furniture.

[@papadop]

When you're having a difficult time making up your mind on which vacuum to purchase; the Sebo D4, or the Miele HomeCare C3 Powerline with the SEB236 powerhead, even though there's absolutely no carpeting in your 300 square foot apartment, you already have a perfectly good, working Electrolux Silverado Deluxe with all the attachments, and your bank account dictates that you can barely afford a Starbucks coffee.

[@jaywalkra]

Nice to see someone who knows a thing or two about vacuums. For carpet usage, Sebo ET-1 powerhead trumps whatever PN Miele has to offer. Cheaper and more serviceable - one handed brushroll removal! For bare floors, Miele wins with the parquet twister head which really is a no brainer (no idea why other brands don't offer the same Wesselwerk OEM head). That's how I ended up buying a Sebo Felix upright in addition to my existing Miele S8 (C3) canister. Interesting you mentioned about the 3D bag.
I thought I was the only one, but the way the current 3D bags are sealed at the sides has reduced its capacity compared to the previous HyClean and Airclean bags. Having said that, a Miele with a HEPA filter is pretty much the only consumer vacuum guaranteed to emit 0 particles. With Miele's bags, I can vacuum up broken pieces of glass and not worry. I don't have the same confidence that Sebo's could hold up just as well.

[@santouchesantouche2873]

jaywalkra I have a Felix and a miele c3 1200w. I love the parquet twister, so I bought an adapter to fit it to the Felix... Sorted! Best of both worlds... Part of me wants a 2200w miele but I have to say, I have stairs and a 1200w miele is so light, and with the mini turbo head... So easy and quick...

[@jaywalkra]

In my country, all C3s are 2000W (2200W prior to S8 rebranding). Never had to turn it beyond 3rd setting for daily use. I find my Felix (700W) relatively weak though it does the job on carpets more than well enough thanks to the powerhead. Can I ask where you bought the adapter?

I like my vacuums to have a headlight. No headlight is a deal breaker for me. If a $225.00 Bissell is capable of having LED headlights then there's no excuse or reason for a $900.00 Sebo to be without that feature. The Miele has better filtration AND a headlight (like all modern vacuum cleaners SHOULD have), so I'd definitely go with the Miele.

[@verygoodbrother]

Wait a couple years and you'd find it hard to find parts for the Bissell. Sebo don't change their vacuums a lot, thus you can still get parts for their ancient machines directly from them. The light will be nice but you'd have to wait for a new update.

[@brodenmacarthur3955]

Just purchased Sebo e3. Can’t wait for it to arrive. My parents bought me a Hoover power drive and I loved it for many years till it tanked. Bought a kenmore elite. Awkward at best annoyingly so. I switch to crevice and such often. The Hoover power was easy and smooth. They don’t make them anymore. The Kenmore elite. Heavy without the power train of my old Hoover. It broke after 2 years and I’m glad. If you link the telescopic attachment to the hose be careful cause you will move the rediculous slide to where it won’t suck. No joke. It happens even if you want it too or not. No lock. So Compared to Hoover power drive with easiest took s let up I mean like 2 steps done. This is awful. I use the hose a lot so this is negative 2 stars. Otherwise powerful and a closed hepa filtration I’d you can remember to close that stupid shaft which by the way is not just that n the attachment it’s on the hose. It was a while before I noticed the damn thing I was open all the time every time I was vacuuming. Rediculous design. Minus 2 suction great. Powerful and a fully closed hepa filtration is the only upside. The downside you are probably never working the unit with the closed system. Unless you check ever time. I truly have grown to hate the machine. It’s heavy. The hose is short even if telescopic and sealing issues. The dirt sensor is a joke. This machine never should have scored so high in consumer reports. They clearly only measured power. All else fails badly.

[@David49305]

I wonder why Sebo doesn't switch to Hepa bags. I like Sebo as they don't churn out new models every other month like some brands (cough Dyson and Shark) and seem to care more about quality. I just wish they would get that filtering quality on par with Miele.

[@PerformanceReviews]

SEBO dose use high-flow high filtration bags similar to Miele I wouldn't count that against them.
I would say it's more of the exhaust filter is not as fine but it's more than adequate foremost allergy sufferers as you can see from the particle counter.

[@rcole6679]

While I question CRs ratings sometimes, especially when they don't unveil the Kenmore mask to reveal the true manufacturer, Sebo and Riccar tanked in the ratings. Miele Marin was at the top followed by several Kenmore, mostly made by Panasonic I believe. There are websites to figure it out. CR gave some Miele's lower ratings, which to me is very questionable, because they all have the same motor size and it's the accessories which vary from model to model, but which may be able to be swapped out. Some have Turbo suction activated brushes, which I'd think couldn't compare to their power motor electric brushes. It pays to research and hear from users, not just marketing and dealer pitches.

[@vacman11]

[@an24510]

Thank you for the comparison, it was very helpful. I currently own a Sebo X4 and have been very happy with it. The design, performance, and cost/availability of replacement parts (wear items, long term service items) has been great. I'm currently looking at buying a canister vac for my parents so I've been checking out local stores and gotten introduced to the Miele lineup. Can I ask you a dealer question? As a dealer, are you guys more incentivized to sell Miele vacuums over other brands like Sebo? As I made the rounds through local stores I've noticed that Miele is heavily pushed compared to other brands, and it makes me think there's more dealer margin on Miele compared to Sebo. I REALLY appreciate the engineering on my Sebo X4, but it seems like I'm the only one because all the stores are pushing me toward Miele. This video is the first time I've come across the Sebo canister and it looks like it might be a great option for me. My gut tells me the local push of Miele over Sebo is a financial driver more than a performance driver, but it would be really interesting to get your thoughts about it. If it's something you rather discuss in private, I can send over my email or phone. Thanks!

[@PerformanceReviews]

Great question! So you'll find me miele pushed for a few reasons.
Number one is training. It is much easier to train employees on Miele Vacuums.
Number two is appearance.
Number three brand presents of
Miele as an international appliance manufacturer.
Number 4 is Consumer Reports.
Number Five Below has a wider range of price points.
Number 6 residual business with Miele is higher among disposables and service sebo tend to be more customer-friendly to service.
I hope that helps I would definitely take the sebo over the Miele . The only reason I would take a Miele over a sebo right now is that Miele has some good entry-level machines that are more economic. Mila also has some extreme filtration options for extreme allergies. Hope that helps feel free to message my Facebook page.

[@jeffreyschleimer9498]

You did the filtration test incorrectly. With the miele, you are measuring straight from the the filter. With the sebo, you are measuring after the foam bumper. Unfortunately however, it is almost impossible to measure the sebo after the filter because of its location. Both vacuums should get the same filtration rating. Just thought I'd bring that to you attention. Both are fantastic vacuums and will last more than 15 years when not completely abused.

[@deurkl]

Jeffrey Schleimer The Miele lasting more than five years is highly unlikely. Failure rate on the Complete models is around 50% after only five years in Europe. I noticed many cases of leaking around the tube entrance, scratchy and squeaking floor tools (the combined parquet/carpet tool lasts usually about two years before the switch breaks), stuck wheels (especially the more fancy dynamic drive ones), broken handles (plastic rips), broken power cord systems (plastic tabs rip). It’s definitely not worth the money.

[@daniellequinn6223]

FWIW, I think the filtration test was done correctly for a consumer of the vacuum. You want to know what’s actually coming back into the room not what technically the last foam filter filters out-if the air still has to go through something else to get into the room and that causes particulates to enter the room, then the consumer should know. It’s quite possible that both the Sebo and the Miele filter to 0 but then the added polyester airbelt causes some particulate to enter the room. The fact that miele is zero into the room is very impressive.
Filtration is definitely a personal choice and I agree with Performance Reviews that the Sebo does a very good job. It’s just that I personally want filtration to 0 so I’m going to go with a Miele despite their downgrade in quality.
Thank you! You are the only review that I’ve found that’s done an air quality test - and that’s exactly what I was looking for.
Also, FWIW, Sebo’s website talks about optional HEPA filtration filters and bags (Sebo’s HEPA are 4 layer instead of 3). However it seems it’s only an option for the Airbelt K, which I saw Performance Reviews said was discontinued in 2017…I might have purchased Sebo and upgraded to HEPA if that was an option on the Sebo D3 Premium or the Sebo D4.

[@David49305]

long-standing pattern of insane tariffs on home appliances in the US. Also US market vacuums get a more powerful motor than in Europe, and a better warranty. But overall US public not really sufficiently aware of how much they're getting screwed; if they were I think there'd be political hell to pay. What's really ludicrous on vacuums is the price difference with Canada, which is particularly ridiculous as we're supposed to have a free trade zone with them, and they have the same motor, same warranty etc. as the US. But we can't import Canadian vacuums with the warranty, nor, it seems, can we import Canadian market Honda Civics with seat warmers at all. Then again they don't have access to US market camera gear with lower prices and more options for getting service or US market prescription eyeglasses that are like one-third the price of Canadian....it seems someone needs to figure out the meaning of free trade zones.

All I am seeing on line is the E3 in white. Are there other colors available in the US? If so, where? Thanks for all of the great videos!

[@PerformanceReviews]

+vmjailer 361 Gray White and red . Go to a local dealer you will save money and have all the choices

[@juliannrangelone6146]

Thank you for this! I am trying to decide between the Miele C3 dog and cat and the Sebo K3, D4, or E3. Trying to find which is best for it's price.

[@PerformanceReviews]

the E3 gives you the most for the price. The Miele C3 soft carpet is a lot of vacuum for the price too .
I would go to a local dealer and you will see why the Cat and dog c3 dose not make since for the price.
The Sebo K3 is Discontinued for 2017 FYI .

[@juliannrangelone6146]

Thank you for your reply! I actually found a great deal on the E3 and ordered it already. Your video was a huge help. Thanks so much!

[@excelsior2708]

I own a c3 soft carpet and the Miele e3. Both are amazing cleaners but the sebo will have a cheaper operating cost.

[@Ramblequist]

@@PerformanceReviews It's mid 2019 and they are still manufacturing the K3. In fact some dealers near me don't even stock the E series.

[@claydensmore7486]

Now it’s 2022 and Sebo still has the k3 listed online, local dealer has more k units on display. I can’t figure out the advantage of the E units. Looking at the specs it doesn’t look to have any advantage for suction or filtration. What makes the E series better?

[@fortheloveofdogz]

How about the sebo Felix vs Miele cx1

[@christiangreen164]

In your experience, how does the E3 do on a thicker/softer type carpet?
I’ve seen a few people claim it tends to bog down and get hard to push but I haven’t seen any video evidence of this.

[@FourJaysFour]

We have soft carpet though not a long shag. It's about .4" and the ET-1 has been the best so far of all options I've tried. Most bog down.

[@arevee9429]

How does the Sebo e3 compare to the Tacony Wondra canister. I have one of the Tacony's and while it has it's good points, I wouldn't give it entirely glowing reviews. I don't like it as much as my Miele canister. The Miele was sold and I'm considering giving the e3 a try.

[@PerformanceReviews]

+are vee I did a review on the Wonder series of canisters to different reviews and later was contacted by Tacony who owns them. And was asked by legal action to take them down. I would agree with you that that vacuum is not ready for primetime. The SEBO E3 please give is one of the best portable vacuums I've seen to come on the market.

[@arevee9429]

I would have liked to have seen that review before it went away. Any chance that could happen?

[@PerformanceReviews]

+are vee search it on UA-cam I believe somebody copied it.

[@arevee9429]

Thanks. Interesting seeing them side-by-side. The non-miele looks very cheap in comparison. The mat blue finish looks like it was applied with a rattle can. As a Prima owner (yes, I originally 'wondra', but I forgot mine was Prima), I can state that the tool storage is awful. I've had my crevice tool pop off and wind up in the toilet. I'll give Riccar credit for the small power head. It's the best I've ever used. But other than that, the machine is just OK. I got the Prima for much less than I could ever get a Miele, but I'm going back to Miele again. Or maybe Sebo.

[@n.prince2734]

So, the blue tester proves that the Miele cleans better?
Also, will you test the Hitachi CV series vs the Canggih canisters?
Even though bagged is better than bagless. These looks the best bagless, ever! I do understand they are available in Mexico and Malaysia.

[@davidhunternyc1]

Miele is to Apple as Sebo is to Android. Miele is slick, elegant, and beautiful, the Ferrari of vacuum cleaners. The Sebo is a purpose built but odd and fascinating ugly duckling, the Saab of vacuum cleaners. I'm completely torn which vacuum brand I prefer more. I've had my Miele S528 for 21 years and it's still as good as new but if I had to buy another vacuum cleaner it would be torture deciding between these two brands... First world problems.

[@ejs18]

Have you tried out Costco c2 Miele? What do you think of the price to quality?

[@PerformanceReviews]

Costco currently sells are hard floor area rug only machine. That's a remake of the Miele s5000

[@ejs18]

@@PerformanceReviews thanks for the reply! I am between the x4 and Felix premium currently I want a hybrid with pets. I just added the e3 due to your video.
I would want the c3 Miele on my list but my local retailers are pushing Sebo because of parts not being available for Miele and back order currently.

[@sloaneafair86]

Between Sebo E3 and sebo Felix, which has more powerful suction?

[@PerformanceReviews]

The E3 has about 20% more power then the Felix.

[@sloaneafair86]

Thank you!

[@jroark101]

Which one has more suction power and vacuums better?

It's so close I would call it a draw go to your local dealer and see what you like better

I want the UK 1200 watt sebo E Pet in black from 2017

the motors are 220v in UK and the US its 120v so there would be a 70$ step up adapter. But the price new for a Sebo e1 pet is only 109 euro!! with shipping to the US, and the converter, it runs about 220 USD

No it's not. This is definitely is my first and really poorly made videos on my part.

Maybe me, but using that machine all day would end up broken? Just looks very brittle? Does a good job though.

Would SEBO E3 Premium be appropriate for hardwood floors?

[@PerformanceReviews]

Yes it is appropriate for all kinds of flooring

[@sl1237]

@@PerformanceReviews Hi, would like your input if possible. What's the point of the premium parquet head that they offer if the et-1 does well on hardwood? Also which attachment / et-1 would be best for carpeted stair usage? Finally can the attachments be used both on the handle and the telescopic wand?

[@gipperiffic]

Can you use the SEBO disco head on the e3?

[@PerformanceReviews]

Yes you sure can 😁

[@briandodson947]

Do they make a stair power head for this machine?

[@PerformanceReviews]

They make a great Turbo head for stairs.

[@Dankcatvacs]

zztop double bag! no shit! that that i call a quirk!

[@santouchesantouche2873]

Sebo all the way. Miele's handle controls are too unreliable. Case closed....

[@PerformanceReviews]

I would say the 5000 Series 8000/C3 series handle controls are pretty solid. SEBO definitely builds their vacuums more heavy duty.

[@santouchesantouche2873]

All the review sites are full of customers complaining about the 5000 series'handles. Mostly that the contacts inside the handle get dust on them cutting the power to the vacuum. Not sure how the 8000 series fares, i would hope a lot better.

[@santouchesantouche2873]

Knife Nut dirt devil over a sebo? Lol. Why don't i just burn a pile of cash instead? I wouldnt touch a bagless vacuum with yours. All that dust spewed back into the air and back on my carpet? Nah... Sebo, all the way

[@PerformanceReviews]

You're specifically talking about 5980 s 5981 there is about a six-month. Where are some hoses shipped defective I suspect that's where they come from but my overall experience with them has been positive. If you're ever worried about a hose you can always buy a model that has the controls on the body. That being said I prefer the SEBO.

you really think that SEBO E3 Premium is better the miele C3 brilliant?

[@PerformanceReviews]

For the Price, you get more Pound for pound with SEBO. The Miele Dose have Better
HEPA filters , longer Warranty &Looks over the SEBO. As it should for
$500-600 more .
But If I had to pick one I would say The SEBO E3 or D4 would be my pick.

[@nogridbag]

It seems the Miele C3 Soft Carpet at $800 is basically the same machine as the Miele C3 Brilliant at $1500 minus a bit of bling and one additional combo brush. Compared to the SEBO at $989, it seems like a better value.

[@nicolebrugge6496]

Jonathan Janisch gyvvnmm

[@LlyleHunter]

The Marin model is also comparable to the E3 in price and has an even nicer powerhead than the Soft Carpet but the Sebo ET1 powerhead is even better made, can be largely maintained at home and the cost of running the machine is demonstrably less over time. The cost of bags and filters is less as is the brushroll.

Two things, if you wish to be seen as a professional, have someone else film while you show off the vacuum and a bit more organized, just my opinion.
