SEBO Automatic X4 Upright Vacuum vs Sebo Airbelt K3 Canister Vacuum

Buy the X4 if you want one upright that sets brush height for you and covers wall-to-wall carpet fast. Buy the K3 if you have a mix of hard floors and carpet, stairs, and pet hair, and want a light canister with a long reach. The X4's electronic height control and shut-off protection are unusual in an upright; the K3's ET-1 power nozzle, 25 ft cord and 7 ft hose give it more reach and versatility. Both are built to be repaired rather than replaced, and owners of both praise the build.

• Choose the SEBO Automatic X4 if most of your home is carpet and you want an upright that adjusts its own brush height and shuts off to protect itself.
• Choose the SEBO Airbelt K3 if you clean a mix of hard floors and carpet, stairs and under furniture, and want a light canister with a long cord and hose.
