How to tell the age of a Sebo vacuum cleaner from the serial number.
If you own a Sebo vacuum cleaner and want to find out its age, you can do so by checking the serial number. Sebo uses a straightforward coding system that allows you to determine the manufacturing year of your machine.
Where to Find the Serial Number on a Sebo Vacuum Cleaner
The serial number on Sebo vacuum cleaners is typically located on a silver sticker under the machine, on the back, or near the motor casing. It consists of a combination of letters and numbers that indicate the production details, including the year of manufacture.
Decoding the Sebo Serial Number for Year Identification
Sebo’s serial number system follows a letter-based code where a specific letter or combination of letters corresponds to a particular year. Here’s a simple breakdown:
- 2024 – CE
- 2023 – CD
- 2022 – CC
- 2021 – CB
- 2020 – CA
- 2019 – H
- 2018 – G
- 2017 – F
- 2016 – E
- 2015 – D
- 2014 – C
- 2013 – B
- 2012 – A
- 2011 – Z
- 2010 – Y
- 2009 – X
- 2008 – W
- 2007 – V
- 2006 – U
- 2005 – T
- 2004 – S
- 2003 – R

- 1986 – A
How to Use This Information
To determine the age of your Sebo vacuum, look at the first letter(s) of the serial number. If your vacuum has a serial number starting with “CD,” it was made in 2023. If it starts with “X,” it was made in 2009, and so on.
This system provides a quick and easy way to date your Sebo machine, whether you are assessing its age for resale, warranty verification, or simply out of curiosity.
Why Knowing Your Sebo’s Age Matters
Understanding the age of your Sebo vacuum can be useful in several ways:
- Parts Availability: Older models may require different spare parts, so knowing the year can help with compatibility.
- Resale Value: If you’re selling your Sebo, knowing its exact age can provide buyers with confidence in their purchase.
- Warranty Checks: If your machine is still under warranty, its age will help determine eligibility for repairs or replacements.
