What buyers say
Miele's entry canister earns a 77% five-star rate from buyers who trade upfront cost for a vacuum that still runs strong at year six.
Loved by buyers
- •Bagged system seals away dust and Maine Coon-level fur without a dust cloud when emptying
- •Quiet enough to hold a phone conversation while running, unlike budget uprights that drown out the TV
- •Still going after three to six years of daily use including two moves and loaning to neighbors
Buyer concerns
- •Stock floor head has no wheels; on anything above the lowest suction setting it locks onto carpet and requires real arm strength to push
- •Genuine Miele bags and filters cost noticeably more than generic options and each bag has a plastic collar
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it work well on hard floors?+
Yes, it excels on hard floors. The strong suction easily cleans hardwood and LVP, and one reviewer calls it the best canister for hardwood.
Can it handle pet hair?+
Yes, it handles pet hair well on hard floors and low pile surfaces. A reviewer with three Maine Coon cats reports it keeps up with the shedding.
How loud is it?+
It is quiet. Multiple reviews describe it as super quiet or not too loud, making it suitable for noise-sensitive households.
Does it clean carpets effectively?+
It works on low pile carpets and rugs using suction, but without a motorized brush it struggles on thicker carpets. A reviewer found the floor head hard to push on carpet due to strong suction and recommends a turbo head for carpets.
