"I have 2 Miele's, one that I inherited (around 25 years old) and one that I purchased (around 15 years old)."
"I’ve had my Miele for 10+ years and I haven’t had to replace anything… ... I’m comparing my Miele to a ship of Theseus in terms of reliability, in the bifl sub."
"17 years then my dad broke it (it actually still works, I haven’t had time to figure out exactly what’s wrong with it yet) ... We got an identical second hand one to replace it."

"It's become my DIY vacuum ... has fought it's way through a complete house remodel ... It's sucked up more rocks and saw dust then anyone could reasonably expect."
"One thing that sold me on paying the extra $s for it was the sound level. ... Even at full suction it is much quieter than any other vacuum I've heard, other than a built-in. ... Friend had a Dyson stick model and that sounded like jet engine revving up for take-off in comparison."
"No noticeable loss of suction in the 7 years I have had it."

"My Miele has been great with past 2 years of Newf fur."
"They have a groove in the power head to cut the hair out easily."

"They are ultra quiet."
"it ’s quiet enough that our dog wouldn’t bother with it. ... it’s good for children, pets, and maintaining a cleaner air environment."

"Miele exhaust close to 0 particulate ... My 2000 dollar particle scanner begs to differ lol"
"The C3 has a complete sealed system which is better than C1 if you have issues with allergies."
"It also has a multi-stage HEPA filter ... it’s good for children, pets, and maintaining a cleaner air environment."

"Miele straight robs you blind with their cost on bags and filters."
"I saw the prices they are charging now. That's wild! I agree they are super expensive now. ... I fully agree that spending over $1000 on a vacuum is crazy."
"horrifically expensive"

"dragging around a cleaner on little wheels"
"Setting up a cord and lugging around the Miele body always made vacuuming my least favorite chore."
"I'll be damned if I'm going to drag that thing up and down three floors regularly."

"My Miele has an infuriatingly short power cord, and my house is quite small"
"The power cord is a few feet shorter than the Dyson, enough to make covering the whole house from a single receptacle impossible (obviously a me-specific grievance)."
"The canister feels like it's constantly in the way, bumping into shit and being a persistent tripping hazard (this would be less of an issue if the hose was longer)."

"The Miele is constantly shedding pieces of plastic around the fittings of the rod and the foot release for the floorhead/rod has already broken once, which required two out of town trips to an authorized repair center to get fixed (Miele won't just sent you parts)."
"it’s awful. ... Don’t bother, unless you want to be unclogging the roller every time you use it."
"I mentioned the power cuts in and out on the brush head and was told it's a common failure that requires a new hose. ... $200CAD to replace the hose."

"The other head without the spinner is fucking ridiculously strong. ... I cannot vacuum a rug with it because it sucks so hard. ... I have to hold one side down with my foot and pull away and it's still hard haha."
"it’s a bit too strong for the Ruggable in my kid’s room, so I put it on its lowest setting and try to keep things chill."
"sucking my carpet off it's pad at the lowest setting! ... I guess I gotta wait to vacuum after I put my coffee table down."
