SEBO 9559AM Automatic X4 Review – Experience A Healthier, Cleaner Home

In the world of vacuum cleaners reputation is of utmost importance, and which brand to have as an example rather than SEBO? They’ve been around for ages, and at this point getting a quality vacuum cleaner from them doesn’t come as surprising anymore. The 9559AM is perhaps one of the best vacuum cleaners we’ve reviewed here, but don’t think that it is flawless. If you are living in a small apartment and clean it occasionally, then you might opt for some of our other reviewed models, which are more compact and far cheaper, such as the Electrolux EL8811A Precision but if you have to clean large surface areas full of dust, dirt, or pet hair, then this here is something you must consider.

Features That Make It Stand Out

The most important and perhaps the best feature of this vacuum cleaner is its capability of eliminating any dust around it. It just has this incredible sucking power, combined with a multifunctional head. It outperforms all other models on surfaces like carpets, wood floors, etc. The brush roll can be considered a valuable asset, but beware of coins on the ground, as it can shoot them in the air before it gets the chance to suck them in.

Now, since this is a bagged model, you will have to change the bag from time to time (or daily if you are cleaning that often), but the important thing here is that this bag will keep things clean and hypoallergenic. A good design feature here is that the bag is filled from the top, and while dust is settling at the bottom of the bag, air is being sucked in from both sides. This allows for constant air pressure through the entire process of filling up the bag. It will still clog up if you don’t change it soon enough, though.

Don’t worry about changing too much here, as the bag has a volume of 1.4 pounds, which is perhaps the biggest we’ve seen in a vacuum cleaner.

Pro Tip: use OEM bags for your vacuum cleaner, instead of buying cheaper ones. The cheap ones usually don’t fit quite as good and don’t have the same filtering capabilities. You can get some of the needed bags here.

If you aren’t quite sure whether you want a bag or a bagless vacuum cleaner, make sure you check out our Buyer’s Guide, where we have that topic covered.

The power head is 12 inches wide, which gives you enough surface area to cover large open floors quickly. It doesn’t fit into narrow gaps, though, so you will have to use the suction hose or the instant-use wand. There is also a dusting brush, upholstery nozzle and a crevice nozzle included in your vacuum set.

The 9559AM has an incredible service life and is really easy to maintain. Even if something goes wrong, you got a whole 5 years worth of warranty. The belt itself has a lifetime warranty covering it.

Lastly, the filtration system on this model is so good that most hospitals and home-care facilities use it for their hypoallergenic environments. So if you think that this vacuum cleaner costs more than its competition, just think about all the health benefits that it will bring to you and your family.
