SEBO Felix Vacuum Converts From Upright to Canister Style

Upon first seeing the SEBO Felix Vacuum Cleaner, we found the fashion-influenced styling reminding us a little too much of our memories growin up around middle aged Korean golf enthusiasts dressed in Burberry sweaters (aka our aunts and uncles). But what we did like about these extremely light 10lbs. upright models is how they can convert from a vertical-use position to a light carry-type handheld.

My Kindle 2 and I are rather inseparable. A late adopter to the digital book scene, I continue to be surprised at just how much I continue to love my Kindle 2 and use it 6 months after its purchase.

Our first week impressions below.
