My wife and I have a janitorial service. We use this vac and have bought MANY. When we first started up years ago we went through Hoovers like nobodys business. Went to Sears and bought Sears Professionals, these were good but the motors were weak and could be burned out. When they stopped making the then current design Sears Pro model we searched til we found this Sebo. Turns out it is the same machine. We bought a couple and found it had more power and more durability. The Sebo is fully made in Germany and the comparable Sears was made in Germany with American motors.
We have NEVER broken a belt on any of these machines, they have a clutch drive that disengages the motor from the brush should it jam. They have sensors that tell you if you have a full bag or a clog. Some of the machines are touchier than others and sometimes the machine isn't really full when it says it is. Make sure you check for fine dust though, it can reduce suction and cause a full bag light. The attachments work GREAT. The wand is a must for a cleaning service. No complicated assembly just to use an attachment. Just pull and use it. The filters have a long life, I change bags weekly (they ARE full or close), change the filters every 6 months and the roller brush once or twice a year, but remember these vacs are used daily 5 or more hours daily. As for the height adjustment, it is fully automatic and even though it may be somewhat slow when going from carpet to wood it is very worth it as most people tend to vacuum too low and wear out brushes and belts too fast because of that reason. The G model is nowhere near as durable, so beware of that one.
