Finally found the perfect vacuum for us!,
I underwent a long and arduous search for the best vacuum, and I finally found it. I read a ton of reviews and looked at lots of models, and am very happy with my choice. However, we’ve only had it for a few weeks, so perhaps I’ll find fault later on, but for now, my husband and I are both thrilled with this vac. It’s light, easy to maneuver and great on our hardwood floors and rugs. Even though there is no brush roller, it still works well on all our rugs, which are mostly orientals and some with a fairly thick pile. One caveat: Make sure you use the switch on the vac head to go from hardwood to carpet, or else it will make that terrible scraping sound another reviewer wrote about. Once you hit the switch it works fine, so I guess that person just didn’t notice the switch. It’s nice and quiet and also works well on cat hair. The only criticism I have is that the vent blower on top of the vac can blow dust a bit but that’s only when you are holding it at odd angles, like on the stairs. Once I was aware of that, I was able to turn it to avoid the issue. The cord was long enough for me; didn’t have that issue as others have. I love that it has a holder to keep the wand upright when you need to stop and move something– you don’t have to find something to lean it on. Overall, I’m VERY pleased!!!
NOTE: Amazon lists a suggestion to buy vac bags at the same time, but it listed the wrong kind of bag. This machine takes G/N bags and not the other kind as was listed.

Holy cow, what an awesome vacuum!!!,
Ok, so… I’m a guy. I’m a 29 year old married guy. I’m a 29 year old married guy who thought that $300 for a vacuum was, well, a really dumb idea. I was under the impression that all vacuums were more/less create equal. You know, you plug ’em in, they pick up crumbs, pick up cat/dog hair and that’s about it, and if you’re lucky, you get a chance to scare one of the cats with it. They’re all just utilitarian tools that suck up stuff and are all the same… Well, they aren’t… and I’m shocked to be saying this, very shocked indeed…
So, here’s my thesis: If you have hardwood floors and a few rugs and a desire to suck up everything, then get this bad boy. It’ll change your life, my friend. No, scratch that… it’ll blow your mind…
Ok, here’s the deal:
First off, it’s light. LIKE, REALLY LIGHT. And on top of that, it’s on casters that aren’t fixed in place, thus allowing the cannister to move in any direction, unlike the old vacuums of yore that could move pretty much just forward and back maybe had a swivelling wheel on the front.
Secondly (and in no apparent order), this thing’s got (for lack of a better phrase) a variable rate sucky thingy… you can set this thing to suck just a little, or suck a whole helluva lot. I really don’t know why you’d use this, but it has pictures of curtains and other delicate stuff, so I’m guessing it’s kinda like that gentle-wash cycle on the washing mashine that I’ve never used. Nevertheless, as a guy that loves stuff, I like knowing that I can customize my suction.
Next Up! It’s quiet. Dunno what else to say… so I’ll paint a picture for you: Take one of those high-peformance motorcycles: they’re loud and annoying. Now take a moped which is quiet yet equally annoying. Now your old vacuum is that Kawasaki Ninja that passed you on the highway at 230 mph, and this awesome Miele is that moped, humming along at 35 miles per hour. They both do the same thing and will transport you from A-B, but the Moped won’t make you look like a jerk doing so. I guess what I’m getting at here is that it’s pretty quiet.
Ok lets move on to LOOKS! This thing just looks cool. It looks like something a Storm Trooper would use on the Death Star if the auto-vac’s (that I’m assuming the Empire had) all broke down at once.
PERFORMACE: Like I said before, if you’ve got hardwood floors and a few area rugs, then this thing its totally gonna rock your world. The main head attachment moves up and down and rotates thus allowing you to practically lay this thing flat to get all the way under the couch (that’s where our cat and dog hair seems to take refuge).
AIR QUALITY: Unlike most vacuums out there, this thing leaves the world a better place than when it found it. Not only does it suck up anything that’ll fit into it’s hose, but it’s got some sort of super-filter that, I’m fairly certain, cleans the air as you suck stuff up. I’ve yet to poke around inside the cannister for fear of learning it’s secrets, but I can honestly say that not only are your floors and furniture going to be cleaner but you’re house-air will smell more pure.
In summary:
This thing looks cool.
This thing works very well.
This thing looks like a Storm Trooper
This thing will totally suck up everything you put in front of it.
If you’ve read this whole review, then you’re probably gonna get this thing. And you should.
EDIT: I’ve since gotten divorced… but put up a fight and kept my Miele… it was well worth it…

I am in love 🙂,
The best vacuum I ever had! Quiet, light and powerful. Switching between hardwood floor and carpets is as easy as switching the flip with the one foot. It is perfect. We were laughing with my husband that the more expensive model must be brewing coffee or offering the massage because it is hard to imagine even better performance 🙂
Oh and one more amazing thing. I ordered it on Sunday and I had it delivered by Tuesday! Free shipping!
