Comments

Cindi S: The vacuum head is sleek enough to go under the couch and around table legs. It has adjustable suction levels to fit the task. It would be nice if the cord were longer but we have enough electrical outlets around the house that we just have to move the plug. Does seem to be made of a lighter weight plastic but so long as we take care of it, the vacuum should last for a long time.

Gayle Bates: I have had this Miele vacuum for one week and it is a pleasure to use. The suction is fantastic and adjustable, with a very quiet motor. No more roaring motors, difficulty in maneuvering, neglecting the edges of floors in all rooms including those with cabinets built-in, and no more stooping because the machine is too short for your height. There is an adjustable wand so vacuuming is so comfortable. The head of this vacuum will fit under most pieces of furniture which eliminates the use of a dust mop or other device. Cleaning has just become easier and more enjoyable. Storing this machines is very convenient too. I love it and would recommend this product to everyone interested in a new machine. Enjoy!

George Stanley: My wife wanted a canister vacuum since she isn't a huge fan of our Dyson V11 cordless vacuum. The Miele is powerful and relatively quiet. Our only surprise was that it didn't come with a power brush head, but that is our fault for not reading the description carefully enough. It certainly has more suction than our Dyson V11, which makes my wife happy. Fantastic on hard surface floors, but a little trickier on carpets. In one sense the non-power brush head works better on shaggier carpets (bathroom mats). It still works well on carpets due to the higher suction. There are a variety of suction settings on the canister that affect the noise level. We usually run it on the medium setting, which is quite powerful and relatively quiet. The quiet setting is even more quiet, but reduces the suction a bit much for carpet vacuuming. The canister is light and easy to move around. Cord is plenty long for our use, but I didn't measure the length. Personally, I much prefer the convenience of the Dyson V11, which has enough suction to do the job and a power brush head that works well on carpets and hard surface floors. My wife does use the Dyson for spot clean-ups, but prefers...

Me: Without question, a far superior vacuum over all others. Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Hobart/KitchenAid, Wüsthof, Henckels; German design and engineering is objectively superior and this vacuum is no exception, even while manufactured in China it is head and shoulders above our previous central vac and Dyson. It is an absolute pleasure to use and aesthetic. I used to hate vacuuming, now I like it and the special filters will improve the quality of our air. There is a quiet setting which is nice but I don't find it terribly loud at all. We have three long-haired cats, tile, wood floors, low pile rugs as well as wall-to-wall carpeting and this performs amazingly on all. Maneuverability could not be better. It is very lightweight. I bought an extra dusting brush to use on my white curtains and slip-covered upholstery only. The adjustable suction is life-changing because I am able to use low suction on things like lightweight curtains where stronger suction would be problematic. The only improvement I would suggest is a more secure mechanism for the on board attachment holder and possibly a longer cord. Changing the bag could not be more simple, there is an indicator...

It's-Tea-Time: My family suffer from asthma and allergies. Because of that, I vacuum almost daily. I was looking for a reasonably small, easy to manage canister vac and this one fit the bill. After using this vacuum very, very frequently over the last 18 months, I am overall very pleased with the performance and durability of this vacuum. I have not noticed any decrease in suction, and the vacuum itself, aside from a few dings on the canister from where I crashed it into walls while rushing around tidying for a surprise visit from my mother in law, looks immaculate.

After 18 months of almost daily use, here is the breakdown on this vacuum

Sealed bag system, good for asthma and allergies. Once dust enters the system (is vacuumed up) it does not escape. I love changing the bags on this vacuum, everything locks firmly inside the bag. I am not exposed to the contents of the bag at all, ever. LOVE.

The bags seem to last FOREVER. Or for me, about 3 months of almost daily vacuuming per bag. The bags are available on amazon and they're really reasonably priced. They're also really, really easy to change out. Ditto for the air filters. My box of vacuum bags came...

Narges : It is one of the best home appliances we have ever bought! great great product, unbelievable suction power, very compact, useful heads, and the bags can fit in more dirt than I have expected.
the price is high specially if you want to purchase when there is no discount on it, but if you are sensitive about having a clean floor like us, it's absolutely worth the price.

Amazon Customer: Love this vacuum! has great suction, and the option the change the suction levels is another added bonus. Love that the handle is actually metal and not a flimsy plastic, although making it heavier then a canister plastic vacuum, the quality is superior. not too badly priced. works great for what I bought it for, laminate flooring and low grade carpet. It pulls out out dirt from areas that I JUST vacuumed with another brand.

T. Allen: I've had an electrolux canister vac for 5 years and love it. But I was shlepping it back and forth to clean short-term rentals we have so I gave the electrolux to the business and needed a new vac for the house intending to purchase the same model again. However, when I started researching, the Miele kept coming up as equivalent to the electrolux or better. The two models I have are the same price and have virtually the same features. I chose the Miele and here's why I'm glad I did:

The Miele C1 compact has a much smaller footprint so it's easier to store.

Miele has three castor wheels so it glides around effortlessly and doesn't get caught up or turned over like the electrolux does. The electrolux has stationary wheels.

Miele has a bag. This may be a dealbreaker for some but for me it was a plus. I liked the idea of the bagless initially when I purchased the electrolux but the bagless chamber requires rinsing and cleaning periodically. I found this to be tedious and it never came completely clean because of all the nooks and crannies in the chamber. Also, I noticed an odor the next time I vacuumed after cleaning the chamber. You...

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I own a cleaning business and have tried a lot of different vacuums. Miele has never let me down. I used to have a Dyson vac for work and exchanged it for a Miele C3. This vacuum was to replace my personal dyson upright. The reason I went with a C1 is for the smaller size and most of all to have the crevices tools easily accessible. I find opening the door of the C3 model to get to the brush a extra step but I needed that feature for my work vacuum since I move it from place to place so much. That being said, that is the one downside to the vacuum. The tool holder goes in the same direction as putting in the tools. This means when you pull to remove one tool, all three can come up. A easy fix would be for Miele to manufacture the tool holder with the slot attaching from the bottom of the hose. I would remove half a star for that if I could.

The advantages of the vacuum are that it is bagged meaning you get a new filter every time you change the bag. And these bags last a long time. I am guessing I won’t use more than 2 bags a year for my 800sq hard floor apartment with no pets. I hate washing filters because all that garbage goes down your pipes and...

ginader: Would give it a 5 if Amazon didn't interpret that star as "I love it." Can't really claim that I'd ever love a vacuum cleaner. It's still work. This one is very handy, perfect for our old house with different surfaces and woodwork. It's easy to lift and carry, good for cleaning stairs, small horizontal areas like moulding on doors and woodwork. The suction feels strong, is adjustable, and leaves floors looking clean. For me, the main strength of this vacuum is that it easily handles a variety of cleaning tasks. Features are straight forward, useful, and well designed. Construction feels solid.
Setup was very simple; instructions were clear, although I do wish manufacturers – not just Miele – would make instruction booklets specific to models. Customers shouldn't have to face the phrase "depending on model."
Have had this for less than a month, so can't comment on anything longer term, like bag changes or filter changes.
