SEBO Essential G5 Upright Vacuum (Light Gray/Dark Gray) | #90407AM

The SEBO Essential G5 (Light Gray/Dark Gray) Vacuum | Model 90407AM is a German-made upright designed for high-square-footage cleaning with a wider head and commercial-grade durability. The G5 uses a 15-inch power head (with a 13.25-inch cleaning path) to cover more floor per pass, plus a long 40-foot cord and a large 1.4-gallon bag to reduce stops and outlet changes.

At-a-Glance Highlights

• Wide-format cleaning for faster coverage in bigger rooms
• Electronic “brain” warning system alerts to worn brush or incorrect height setting
• Bag full/clog protection + automatic shutoff to help prevent overheating
• Instant-use wand + suction hose with about an 8-foot reach for edges and above-floor jobs
• Three on-board tools always ready (crevice, upholstery, dusting)
• Scratch/scuff-resistant matte finish and rubber-coated wheels for home protection

Recommended Floor Types

• Wall-to-wall carpet: low, medium, and plush (use the 4-level brush height adjustment to match pile)
• Area rugs: standard rugs and runners (set brush height so the head “floats” without bogging down)
• Hard floors: hardwood, engineered wood, LVP/LVT, tile, stone (supported for bare-floor cleaning)
• Pet homes: built for strong brush agitation and hair pickup with a large bag for fewer changes

Product Description

The G5 Essential is for customers who want a simple, rugged upright that cleans quickly and holds up over time. It’s especially compelling in larger homes because the wider head reduces total passes, and the extra-long cord minimizes outlet changes. SEBO also designed the Essential G platform with a tightly sealed casing and multi-stage filtration for cleaner operation and more controlled dust handling during bag changes.

Key Features

• 15-inch power head with one-sided edge cleaning: helps pull debris from edges and along baseboards
• Four-level manual brush height adjustment: dial the head height for consistent carpet agitation
• Tool-free brush roller removal: faster hair cleanup and simpler maintenance
• Bag full / clog warning + auto shutoff: designed to protect airflow and the motor when a restriction is detected
• Soft-start motor: gradual power-up intended to extend motor life
• Instant-use wand + hose: quick corner, upholstery, and stair-edge cleaning without changing machines
• Durable matte finish + rubber-coated wheels: helps reduce scuffs to the vacuum and your floors

FAQs

1) What’s the difference between the Essential G4 and Essential G5?

The primary difference is width: the G5 uses a 15-inch head with a wider cleaning path for faster coverage.

2) Is the SEBO Essential G5 #90407AM good for pet hair?

Yes—SEBO designed the Essential G platform for strong brush agitation and includes a protective warning/shutoff system to help manage hair load and obstructions.

3) How do I choose the correct brush height setting?

Use the lowest setting that allows smooth movement without bogging down. If the vacuum indicates an incorrect height setting, raise the head one level and continue.

4) Can it clean hard floors?

Yes—SEBO lists the Essential G as capable of bare-floor cleaning. Use a suitable height setting and slower passes on delicate surfaces.

5) How far does the hose/wand reach for stairs and upholstery?

The instant-use wand and suction hose are designed to provide about an 8-foot reach for edges, corners, and furniture.
