Miele C1 turbo team, Sebo k2 turbo or Henry xtra No wrong answers amongst the 3.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for hard floors and area rugs? ->Insanely wasteful. Just get a Sebo or Miele and be done with the waste.
r/VacuumCleaners • Recommendations for vacuums that will not void my carpet warranty ->Miele without a doubt is the best of that list. IMO be careful ordering something like this from Amazon. I’ve seen lots of used/b-stock/broken vacuums being passed off as “new” from Amazon. To no fault of Miele, it’s just Amazon’s shitty commingled inventory system. Check r/vacuumcleaners and do some reading. Then imo the best bet is to find a local vacuum store that sells Miele and Sebo. Go take a few for a test drive and buy through them. You’ll support a small business and chances are they can price match Amazon or at least throw in some freebies (bags or accessories)
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->You shouldn’t need a powerhead unless you plan on moving somewhere in the next 20+ years. For your current hard floor with rugs, Miele c1 pure suction, or C1 turbo team. Sebo k2 kombi or k2 turbo. If you’re coming from bagless, I don’t even know if you’ll need the extra HEPA filter in the Miele right away. The filtration is stellar already with just the bag.
r/VacuumCleaners • Can someone please recommend the best HEPA vacuum available on the market? ->Miele, Sebo or Lindhaus. Check out r/vacuumcleaners
r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->None. That Miele is great but only for hard flooring. The shark and Dyson are junk. If you can stretch to ~$400 a Sebo dart is excellent and on sale until Tuesday I believe at your local Sebo dealer. If not, Kenmore 600 series pop and go
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->Check out a Miele C1 turbo team, Sebo k2 turbo or Henry xtra. Use the turbo head on your rug. The Miele and Sebo have cord rewind, but the Henry doesn’t. All 3 are excellent options though as long as you don’t plan on having wall to wall carpets or more rugs/thicker pile rugs over the next 20 years or so.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum for hardwood floors and cat ->Definitely don’t buy a $75 cordless vacuum. It will be in the trash before the New Year then you’ll be looking to replace it, wasting even more money. If you can stretch slightly (a bit). Keep an eye out for Black Friday sales for a Hoover Complete performance or Kenmore intuition. Agreed with Performance reviews - used is a great option for that budget. A used Miele, Sebo, Oreck or Sanitare
r/VacuumCleaners • Any ideas for good vacuums $75 or less? ->Miele’s C1 Turbo Team is a solid vac for hard floors and low pile rugs. The canisters aren’t very heavy and you just let them hang out behind you as you clean. The adjustable wand is also pretty easy to use. You get suction power, hygiene and longevity with corded bagged machines.
r/VacuumCleaners • What's best vacuum for hardwood floors? ->I’ll second the Miele Turbo Team!
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum for hardwood floors and cat ->Definitely the Miele!
r/VacuumCleaners • Studio Apartment Vacuum Cleaner; Memorial Day Sales ->We recently bought a house with mostly hardwood floors. We put down area rugs and have a partially finished basement with carpet. We bought a Miele C1 TurboTeam and love it. Works great on all surfaces and does not scratch the hardwood. Our dog sheds quite a bit but vacuuming weekly has been enough.
r/VacuumCleaners • What's best vacuum for hardwood floors? ->It’s pretty light. I don’t mind it. And it has wheels so I just pull it behind me as I’m cleaning.
r/VacuumCleaners • What's best vacuum for hardwood floors? ->20% off the Miele C1 Pure Suction and Miele C1 Turbo Team, valid 2/10/2025 to 2/23/2025. [Miele Classic C1 Pure Suction](https://www.mieleusa.com/e/canister-vacuum-cleaners-classic-c1-pure-suction-powerline-sban0-graphite-grey-11181020-p) Reg $349 on sale $279. This is a suction only canister comes with a combo floor brush good for hard floors and minimal rugs. [Miele Classic C1 Turbo Team](https://www.mieleusa.com/e/canister-vacuum-cleaners-classic-c1-turbo-team-powerline-sban0-tech-blue-11181010-p) Reg $469 on sale $375. This is a suction only canister that comes with a basic hard floor brush and a turbo brush, this vacuum is good for hard floors and it is better at low to medium pile rugs and carpets but not good for a majority carpet home. Miele's cordless vacuums and bagless canister vacuum also on sale are not recommended because they are not easy or cheap to maintain.
r/VacuumCleaners • /r/VacuumCleaners Monthly Deals & Marketplace - February 01, 2025 ->I just got this model a couple months ago. My condo is almost entirely hardwood but I got the turbo team model to vacuum carpeted common areas and area rugs. Its perfect for majority hardwood with some occasional low pile carpeting.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->I would disregard the recommendation list posted here as it does not reflect the availability and value in the Australian market. The Miele models down under completely eliminated an electric nozzle and at best offer just a turbo nozzle for carpet. For wall to wall carpet with pets, the turbo nozzle will be a vacuuming and maintenance nightmare. I would suggest you prioritize a vacuum with an electric nozzle. Sebo still sells canisters and upright vacuums electric nozzles, but as you found out they are disproportionately $$$. If you want a Sebo for the BIFL quality and maintenance ease, save up gradually or maybe try looking second hand. Otherwise I would suggest you look at what's actually available around you that has an electric brush roll. Even a basic Shark Navigator (not the duo clean heads with 2 brush rolls) will perform better on carpeted households than an air driven turbobrush.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuums available in Australia for carpet & dogs that shed a lot ->It depends on your house: Robot vacuum: have this if you do not have pets or wet dirts to smear around Cordless Vacuum: tbh I’m having fun with shark, just need to clear it each time I use it but that’s ok, this is for daily, I need this because I have pets and the bunch of attachments are great for furniture etc. Miele C series: good if you can get the parquet tool head. This is good for a major once a week jobs Wet dry: think tineco, some people swear by them, I used them for 1 week and could not stand the smell that lingers if you don’t dry it out right or that I’ve become the vacuum cleaner. I’d have the shark with a stick to use daily or crumbs + Miele C1/Karcher WD1 for when I want a big job done every now and then
r/VacuumCleaners • What's best vacuum for hardwood floors? ->Yeah you'll need a real vacuum (with strong suction) and no moving parts in the floor head to adequately clean delicate rugs. High end carpeting requires a high end vacuum. I'd personally buy the Miele Classic C1 (it's the cheapest option that will effectively clean the rug without pilling). The combi floor nozzle is effectively a giant upholstery tool. Tbh any basic canister vacuum will have this combo tool, they're the cheapest good vacuums to make! (Such as the eureka mighty mite). The Sebo e1 is also appropriate. Get the Miele gala c3 125 anniversary edition (direct from the Miele website) for the same performance in a much nicer form factor (quieter, onboard tools, nicer handle, included nice hard floor brush). When buying a vacuum like a Sebo or Miele, you might as well make sure it can clean your whole home, just considering these machines last decades and will be superior to any other vacuum. So what're the rest of your floors like? The given advice applies if you only have hard floors and these delicate rugs. If you have carpets that aren't delicate you'll need a vacuum with a motorized spinning brush to keep those rugs clean and those vacuums are more expensive.
r/VacuumCleaners • Brushless vacuum recommendations for high end rugs ->I'd personally get the Miele and use the upholstery tool on the stairs but it's really impossible to deny the sweet sweet satisfaction of an electric carpet tool in the pet powermate from a Kenmore. If you're gonna get an area rug ever or move to a place with carpets within the next 10 years I'd say get the Kenmore (or get an electro Miele used for the same price!). Overall id recommend an electro canister over non electro, but cannot stress enough how distressful it is for me to not push for buying the Miele only bc it's pure suction! The Miele centennial C1 from PCRichard is $650 and comes with Mieles small electric carpet tool which is nice on stairs, but you'd want to buy the Parquet twister separately. Similarly the C3 excellence model comes with the seb217 electric carpet tool (compact and good for stairs) and the combo tool for hard floors, and is about $750.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for carpeted stairs and hardwood? ->Miele C1 is extremely light weight and all of the wheels are on separate casters. Very easy. The non-powered head from the dog/cat version still provides plenty of agitation for throw rugs.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Miele C1 is hands down the best vacuum for the money!
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I’ve owned the Miele C1 for the past 10 years (+/-) and love it. Best vacuum I’ve ever owned (hands down). Still performs like it did day one. And it was relatively affordable.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My border collie is a champion shedder. I learned the hard way not to get a vacuum that rolls up the hair on a roller. Get the basic, classic Miele C1. Expensive but so perfect and it will last forever. Bonus tip: I spritz a tiny bit of white tea on the collection bag and it makes my house smell good.
r/BorderCollie • Best vacuum for dog hair? Bonus points if it can be bought at Costco. ->Love the Miele C1. Would not hesitate to recommend it for laminate. It’s very light weight and I believe a great compromise between suction power and maneuverability.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->I have a shark pet canister bag less vac and it’s amazing. Power head never clogs and we have 3 long haired people in the house. The Miele c1 is also good, but we needed that power head.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Miele C1 - $300 or less usually. Pure suction bagged. From what I see online it has the strongest suction of any vacuum other than central vacuum systems. I have one but with the electric option for a brush roll since I have 50% carpet. They are ultra quiet.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vac recommendations ->I agree that there are some brands that are wickedly expensive and not worth the price of entry. I do think that the Miele C1 for $279 is the steal of the century and it has a 5yr warranty (I think). Buying a SEBO Dart for $500 might seem like a lot, but with a 10 year warranty (which is the minimum I think a vacuum would last from this company) means that you’ve only paid $50/yr for the vacuum. However, if you just cannot fathom or are unable to think about such a purchase right now or in the immediate future Sanitaire is a great brand with semi- and fully-commercial offerings.
r/VacuumCleaners • Wondering if anyone here has experience or knows of the Ryobi ONE+ Stick Vacuums and could help with advice on if I should get one or not, Ryobi tools have held up for quite a while and one of my favorite brands here in Australia. (I hate the pull along canister vacuums) ->Just bought a Sebo D4 last weekend. 10 year warranty (no paperwork required for service - they use serial number). Super long cord. Big bags. Great filter. Easy maintenance. Power head brush pops right out for cleaning and has no exposed bearings. It replaced a Miele C1 which is also good, but too small for our house and lacks a power head.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->I bought a Miele c1 based on friends recs and it's been excellent (I have pets and endless hair everywhere). Could not justify Dyson prices nor their politics.
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->this always happens, I search the internet all week for a good vacuum deal and couldn’t find one, the moment I buy the miele c1 this comment pops up. Now I have to return the miele for the sebo lol
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->I just replaced my bissell pet vacuum (2-1/2 years old and busted) with a Miele C1 after researching here and in r/buyitforlife there’s some good information in both but you’ll have to do some digging based on what works best for the types of floors you have.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the Best Vacuum Cleaner that Actually Lasts? ->I have a C1 as well and I love it. Well worth the money
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->There’s no single vac that does it all except for maybe a super heavy super expensive traditional canister like a Miele. For an everyday hard floor vac (and light carpet vac) the best is Levoit on Amazon that's about $200. It's a Dyson-like machine that overcomes a lot of the longtime design issues with Dysons (such as, it can stand up by itself -- what a concept). But we also keep the Dyson around for a more aggressive carpet vac when we need it. We also have a Eureka boss -- powerful and dependable small canister vac. And a monster shop vac in the basement. Dysons are great but they're really expensive and their air filtering system is overly complicated and tends to lose efficiency. If you own a Dyson, watch all the available Youtubes on how to clean it with pressurized air so you can keep it running. Given the competition from newer manufacturers like Levoit, I think it's going to be harder for Dyson to justify selling floor vacs for close to $1000.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->Getting a Classic C1 Meile coming in on Friday. My mom loves Dyson, but after 4 years, I would rather stop replacing batteries. Found myself pulling out the old dusty Electrolux to finish the job when the Dyson recharges. Figured I might as well get a new vacuum with more features.
r/VacuumCleaners • Did anyone upgrade their vacuum cleaner for Black Friday deals? ->Personally I would get a Bissell Zing or Miele C1. Both of those break down and can be stored under a bed or in a drawer. You want to stay away from stick vacuums as they require emptying every time and are not designed to be your primary vacuum due to the lack of power.
r/VacuumCleaners • which vacuum cleaner should i get? ->Miele classic is the best workhorse vacuum for your money. The on boarding attacents are top notch. It can take a beating and keep ticking, Will suck the carpet right off of a floor and has low clearance on the head to easily get under furniture.
r/sweatystartup • Vacuum recommendations for solo house cleaning business? Henry Xtra HVX160? ->Yes. Comes apart at every piece.
r/sweatystartup • Vacuum recommendations for solo house cleaning business? Henry Xtra HVX160? ->I would say the only downside to this one is it's two pieces an DIY gets kinda heavy to lug around both pieces all day but for solid workhorse vacuum you don't have to worry about this one is it.
r/sweatystartup • Vacuum recommendations for solo house cleaning business? Henry Xtra HVX160? ->You can pry my Miele C1 from my cold dead hands.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->We just bought our 3rd Miele. First one was a C1 about 10yo and was passed on to my FIL, who loves it, when we upgraded to C3. We still have the C3 but just bought a Hx2 pro because I'm getting older and wanted a cordless stock.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I have a Miele C1 with the cat & dog attachments and a long-coat German Shepherd. Only had the Miele for a couple years but I must've been a little high while changing bags once and forgot to put a fresh bag in. I vacuumed without a bag in it a couple times until I realized my mistake. I spent a few hours taking the case apart which is a huge pain in the ass, and definitely not designed for end-user serviceability. There are very helpful YT videos from professionals that make it easier for sure, but I was able to get the motor out and take the covers and stuff off, then blew all the dust out with an air compressor. Luckily the filters were able to catch most of the debris and only some dust made it to the motor. After a thorough cleaning though, the thing fired right up and works and sounds like new still. So my experience with the Miele is that despite my best efforts to destroy the thing it is an absolute tank and even if it doesn't last a "lifetime," the performance and ruggedness alone make it worth every penny to me.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Yeah, stick vacuums and canister vacuums are so different. I only ever had upright vacuums but converted to a Miele C1 because it has been filtration than a bagless stick or upright vacuum and it has a longer operation time and more consistent suction power than a cordless stick vacuum.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Just got a Miele C1 after countless visits to this sub for days. I’m in the UAE so it was for 999AED, used up rewards on my card and got it down to 499AED. Claimed the free 4 dust bags too. Great piece of equipment to be getting excited over in my 30s. We’d gotten 3 bagless ones over 3 years. Took the buy once cry once approach and just happy & content now.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s the Best Affordable Vacuum That Actually Works? ->I’d grab a Miele C1 or C3 from John Lewis. Seems there’s a sale on! (Depending on which one fits your use case.) I’m not familiar with the C2. Others can comment on that
r/VacuumCleaners • I hate this vacuum! Looking for advice on replacing it please. ->Slick marketing and name recognition will always muddy the waters if it's a list about longevity, performance, or quality. It's why Bose ends up on every speaker list even though the colloquial joke for decades has been, "no highs, no lows? Must be Bose". I've had a Miele C1 for 6ish years now? Only thing I regret is not getting a higher trim that has or takes the electric head with a beater bar (I don't think the pet model existed at that time?) but it's been a tank and the bags aren't really a hassle and easier to dispose of than a plastic container full of loose crap.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I have Miele C1 and Dyson V15. We use Miele when more suction is needed and Dyson for light duty tasks
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I also prefer bagged. I have experience with the miele classic c1 and kenmore elite 21814. Both are great. Miele is super light and easier to carry. Best choice if you have stairs. But I like how close to the ground the kenmore gets (but it is fairly heavy to carry up or down stairs). If you can afford it, it's definitely worth investing in a high quality vacuum especially of you have pets.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->the Miele Classic C1 is probably the best if you want top-tier cleaning power with a super durable build. Handles hardwood like a dream and has adjustable suction for rugs. If you need something cheaper but still solid, the Bissell CleanView Swivel Pet is a great option too. I was tired of vacuums that either scratched my floors or didn’t clean my rugs properly, but [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Calidad_Precio/comments/1jcnyw1/best_vacuums_for_vinyl_floors_in_2025_gentle_and/) helped me find the right one. Definitely worth a read!
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for hard floors and area rugs? ->I’ve got a toddler and I’ve found myself vacuuming every night because I hate crunchy floors, blegh! Here’s my current situation: - I got a Miele Classic C1. I use it mainly upstairs because it’s a little unwieldy to drag it up and down stairs (with said toddler, plus two cats). I LOVE the bag and how there’s no roller for my hair to clog up. for upstairs and it’s amazing but a pain in the ass to drag up and downstairs every night. It works great on the thick carpet in our hallway/landing and the hardwood, but 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. - Downstairs, I vacuum the kitchen (tile) and living room (hardwood and another Ruggable) with my old Shark Navigator lift-away. The roller is always encased in my hair, I hate dealing with the cord, I HATE the canister and how gross it gets, and I hate how it spit backs tiny things at me (like sand or the tiny rocks from our driveway). I’d like to get something for downstairs that has no roller (necessity), preferably cordless or a cord that retracts, isn’t too gigantic, and has good suction but not so good that it makes vacuuming the Ruggable a pain. I’m not too picky about whether or not it has a bag but I do like the bagged option from a sensory perspective… Does this unicorn vacuum exist? I’d probably go up to $1,000 with my budget if I could find something that comes close to checking those boxes.
r/VacuumCleaners • Recommendations needed for an everyday vacuum without a roller ->Miele! We have 9 cats and a dog.
r/torties • Vaccume cleaner suggestions SPECIFICALLY for pet hair? ->The Classic C1. It's amazing. It cleans up pet messes and home renovation messes!
r/torties • Vaccume cleaner suggestions SPECIFICALLY for pet hair? ->> super heavy super expensive traditional canister like a Miele Our Miele canister is super lightweight, super effective, super quiet and ~$375 right now on Amazon. I don't hesitate to carry it up and down stairs with one hand. https://www.mieleusa.com/e/canister-vacuum-cleaners-classic-c1-turbo-team-powerline-sban0-tech-blue-11181010-p
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->Thanks so much. I ordered the Miele and it gets delivered on Saturday. Sometimes Reddit really delivers!
r/VacuumCleaners • Brushless vacuum recommendations for high end rugs ->I ordered the classic C1 from Amazon because it gets delivered on Saturday. Other delivery options weren't until October 10 or after.
r/VacuumCleaners • Brushless vacuum recommendations for high end rugs ->Miele canister vacuum. I have a C1
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Miele. I bought a C1 and that thing would suck a golf ball through a garden hose! I was introduced to Miele while at a repair shop to have one of our many previous vacuums repaired. When we went to pick up the vacuum the repairman demonstrated with our vacuum and a Miele using flour on various surfaces (hardwood, carpet, etc.). The difference at what was left after vacuuming was surprising. The downside is is is a canister vacuum and it is not bagless. To demonstrate the vacuum durability, the repairman actually stood on the canister portion of the vacuum.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Definitely skip the Shark. The Dyson I had seemed gimmicky. It just didn’t live up to the hype. I own that exact Miele. For hard wood or laminate floors it’s great. Also for lower shag rugs and carpet. Don’t have any high shag carpet in my home, so I can’t comment on it’s performance there.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->Just got a Miele Classic C1 for a great price and it's so powerful, it's 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.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Yes on the Dyson Animal 3, not the Costco version, but the corded version. It’s a Golden parent’s best friend. Other option is the top of the line Miele, but they’re pricey 1,200. ish.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->I’ve always had a Dyson but recently I used a Miele and holy god they’re good! Next one I buy will be a Miele for sure!
r/newzealand • Briscoes sale - vacuum cleaner recommendations please!! ->Miele exhaust close to 0 particulate
r/VacuumCleaners • Can someone please recommend the best HEPA vacuum available on the market? ->My 2000 dollar particle scanner begs to differ lol
r/VacuumCleaners • Can someone please recommend the best HEPA vacuum available on the market? ->none, save your money and get a vacuum that isn't overpriced and unreliable like every shark is, for $400 you can get a really decent spec miele or sebo, both of which are fantastic for carpets
r/VacuumCleaners • Which Shark vacuum should I buy? ->My Miele has been great with past 2 years of Newf fur. No noticeable loss of suction in the 7 years I have had it. It still grips the carpet. I do *try* to get the random tumbleweeds with a dust buster handheld type vac in between full vacuuming though.
r/Newfoundlander • Best vacuum for Newfoundland hair? ->Same it took me years. The amount of vacuums I bought in between that time (since I could only spend about $ 150) I could’ve gotten multiple mieles! I finally used after pay!!
r/housekeeping • Vacuum recommendations ->Here to vouch for Miele! My mom has had hers for 15 years and has only ever had one part repaired in a house with fluffy dogs. I just got mine last year and in our Newfie house it’s the best. Unlike Dyson, you can actually take them to a vacuum shop and reasonably have them serviced if they break. They’re the same price and a worthy investment.
r/bernesemountaindogs • Best Vacuum?! ->I’ve had my Miele for 10+ years and I haven’t had to replace anything…
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I've had a Miele for 20 years. Would buy another if this one ever dies. 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.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My Miele sucks and it blows too.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I got a Miele right when my sister gave me a Dyson. Honestly, I like the Miele better.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I second this. We're only 7 months in with it but I don't see it wavering.
r/Newfoundlander • Best vacuum for Newfoundland hair? ->If you can afford it a Miele will last you forever. Ours is about 20 years old and all we do is give it a good clean once a year and it works great. My only other tip is that we don't use it for the whole house in one go. We do a couple of rooms then let it cool a bit by moving stuff in the other rooms before vacuuming. I think that is what's saved it from burning out. But it could also be nonsense. Anyone who knows better I'd love to hear from you.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I saw the prices they are charging now. That's wild! I agree they are super expensive now. Guess when I bought mine they weren't as known or something because it was basically $200 with inflation factored in. I fully agree that spending over $1000 on a vacuum is crazy.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->We've had our Miele since 2013 and it's going strong. I do get it cleaned and serviced once a year or so and I have had things break but everything was fixable.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Miele is the best — I’ve had one for about 17 years and I don’t see it dying anytime soon.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Miele. No hesitation.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Anecdotally I have a miele and a Dyson and it's not even close, the miele is a powerhouse and the Dyson definitely lost power over time. Actually I take it back. We tossed the Dyson. Miele is still going strong after 15 years.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Vacuum repair man who was an authorized Miele shop (amongst other brands) told me that Miele had the best reliability. I’ve had one for about a decade at this point and it’s great.
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->I have two Miele. I don’t need to upgrade. I hope I never need to replace them either.
r/VacuumCleaners • Did anyone upgrade their vacuum cleaner for Black Friday deals? ->Yes, I also voted Miele. It’s has solid performance.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the Best Vacuum Cleaner that Actually Lasts? ->I swear my Miele vacuum is going to outlive me.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Usually a Henry or miele and you can't go wrong with those immo
r/VacuumCleaners • Vac recommendations ->I'm kinda surprised dyson is up top. I got a miele 6 years ago and it's going strong. Love this thing, best vac i've ad.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->+1 for Miele... 14 years and going strong
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->> Every part is replaceable. If you can ever get them to ship you the parts. I had a Dyson recently that I ended up just giving away via curb alert because a simple part near the roller just up and broke one day. We called, emailed, and got confirmation that we would get a replacement part via warranty...and they never sent it. We called + emailed again; still no part. After a third time we just said fuck it and got a Miele. More expensive but we can get parts for it easily if it breaks just driving to a local store.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->+2 for Miele, 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.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->The only truly good vacuum is Miele. Dyson vacuums are overpriced garbage.
r/newzealand • Briscoes sale - vacuum cleaner recommendations please!! ->Miele vacuums are the best, so glad I bought one.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->We had a Miele and it’s quiet enough that our dog wouldn’t bother with it. It also has a multi-stage HEPA filter and the canister, although small, lasts a bit. It’s a solid vacuum. Slightly annoying to store and pretty expensive for the bags and filters, but if cost isn’t a factor, it’s good for children, pets, and maintaining a cleaner air environment.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Miele is 100% worth it.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Miele. Expensive, but very good.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->The best Miele you can afford
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->We have a Dyson Gen 5 Detect. Got it on an open box deal at Best Buy. I also have a Miele which works fine but the bags fill up way too fast so we don’t use jt now that we have our Golden.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->I have 3 of the top 4. I have been happy with dyson because you can get a lot if replacement parts. Miele works great too.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Lol. These are presumably reviews at new. I bet after a year of ownership the reviews will look very different. I know from experience that Miele last and Dyson doesn’t.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->\*this\* We had a shark that we loved and it worked fine for nearly 10 years. Then a tiny part that turned the roller brush stopped working. Shark doesn't sell that part. So now, we can use it to vacuum hard floors or use the attachments, but can't vacuum carpets anymore. It's a perfectly good vacuum, but because they don't sell replacement parts, it's no good for us anymore. We got a Miele. It's great at what it does, but I miss the ease of an upright vacuum (compared to the awkwardness of a cannister vac).
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->It’s not even a question : MIELE. I bought mine in 2009, still working powerfully.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->There's many different kinds of Miele vacuum cleaners. The cheapest ones don't even have a powered head for carpet so they're not good at that. There's $350 Miele vacuum cleaners in America.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Dyson doesn't suck as hard and is extremely loud. Just on the noise alone I hate using my parent's Dyson and use their Miele instead.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Miele is definitely the best but so expensive. A very very good alternative is the eureka mighty mite. I’m surprised no one recommends it (this is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve recommended it on Reddit and never see it mentioned!)
r/internetparents • Internet Mom/Dad, what're the BEST vacuums overall? ->The Miele, Henry, and Sebo vacs are the only ones worth a damn on this list. If you want a real BIFL vac and are willing to shell out, get a Lindhaus.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I have Miele that I love but I once managed an apartment building that had a garbage vacuum cleaner so I found a used Riccar vacuum for $150. That thing was a beast. I turned it on and it felt like the floor was vibrating. I could see the dirt and dust coming up out of the carpet like they were running for their lives. I kinda wish I’d kept it.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->Dyson Detect is crap. Worst $1k I’ve ever spent. Get a Miele if you want to actually CLEAN.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->We have a Miele, a Dyson stick vac, and a shark robo vac. We use them for different purposes, but all have their place in our house. Miele came first though almost 10 years ago and it’s never had any issues.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Agree! Miele is the best! Owned a Dyson, Shark, Hoover corded and cordless. They don’t even come close.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->Of those that you are considering the Miele wins hands down. Also add SEBO to your list....
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the Best Vacuum Cleaner that Actually Lasts? ->SEBO for upright. Miele for canister. Miele has slightly better filtration than SEBO but I personally prefer SEBO canisters and uprights due to better warranty and cost of ownership
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the best bagged HEPA vacuum with a sealed system ->Another +1 for Miele. Though I've only had it a couple years so far, I bought it after coming to this sub and asking. It's the best vacuum I've ever owned. No regrets.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->Miele is expensive but AMAZING. I was gifted mine.
r/husky • What vacuum do you use? ->Yes, Miele. It's as close as vacuums come to buy it for life.
r/internetparents • Internet Mom/Dad, what're the BEST vacuums overall? ->+1 Miele and Sebo vacuums are really really fantastic. They are on a different level of ability to vacuum. But they are not nearly as convenient, and unless you really really love vacuuming, a really good vacuum that is ridiculously convenient is going to be used a lot more than an even better vacuum that is less convenient. The Dyson stick vacuums are so convenient that you end up using it more, and you therefore end up with a cleaner place and more enjoyable living experience.
r/Costco • Which Vacuum Cleaner to buy? ->I bought my Miele at Bed Bath and Beyond. Sadly, though, it’s no longer an option to buy anything there anymore 😔.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I have a few vacuums, one being a Sebo E3 and another is a Miele. I also have a Dyson V8 Absolute and I *absolutely* love it. I’ve had this one for a few years and use it almost daily around the kitchen. I recommend that one. It doesn’t have the digital screen, it’s not super heavy on the wrist, and it cleans well. If it were to break or stop working, I’d buy another one. Worth it.
r/VacuumCleaners • Suggest some of the best cordless DYSON vacuums ->Anecdotal, but Miele is the only vacuum that I've ever seen survive longer than a year in a commercial restaurant setting. High end country club with carpeted dining room that has at least 1 wine glass break per day
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->A lot of things on here *are* buy it for life, though. Even vacuums (my grandma has had her Miele since before I was born). So a lot of posts *are* literal. Though, I think this is (and already has been) becoming less common. Modern goods that used to be BIFL are dropping in build quality.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->miele beats everything else
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->My Miele was a HUGE disappointment. Scratched the hardwood floors (there is a sort of hook on the back which hits the floor when you're going under tables/beds) and the tube part (not the technical term - this is not my area of expertise) comes out if you pull too hard, which I do as I HATE vacuuming. I'm getting a robot.
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->My Miele has an infuriatingly short power cord, and my house is quite small
r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->I swapped my Dyson for a Miele, never looked back
r/dogs • Recommend me a vacum cleaner. (not robot vacum please) ->Love our Miele. The cord is quite long though.
r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->Miele hands down, it’s the only one to consider!
r/dogs • Recommend me a vacum cleaner. (not robot vacum please) ->Miele is top notch
r/GuiltyDogs • Any vacuum cleaner recommendations? 👹 ->I bought a Miele years ago and I have not regretted it once. It's so much better than my old Dyson and I've had zero problems.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Sebo are expensive, but they are incredible. If you can afford it, I recommend. Miele are also great. The place I purchased from had both on display. I preferred the Sebo for the ease of removing the brush roller. This makes it really easy to remove the hair that gets wrapped around it.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Your hair and cats bear no role in the decision process. There are many BIFL vacuums, but buying one is a question of floor types and you mentioned carpet, but do you have any smooth floors? Miele is an excellent choice as many of them have the ability to turn off the beater for smooth floor use as well as carpet.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? -># I have had a Miele in the past, I have had a few Dyson's, but the one I am liking most is the Henry Pet XL. It is more straightforward and gets the job done.
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->I’m a former Dyson fanboy. I’ve seen the light and love Miele. Shark is also much better than Dyson at a significantly lower cost
r/dyson • Best Dyson Stick Vacuum ->price of replacement parts is a huge reason i recommend sebo vacuums. every time i have to look up a part for a miele vacuum i already know it’s going to cost 3x-4x what it should.
r/VacuumCleaners • [REVIEW] Miele Vacuums are a joke ->I’ve had mine for over a decade, still going strong
r/internetparents • Internet Mom/Dad, what're the BEST vacuums overall? ->Love my Miele, it gets some abuse but so long as you change the bag its a happy little hoover. Sister has gone through 3(!) Dysons in the time I've had it, no idea why she keeps buying them.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Sebo, Henry, Miele, Lindhaus all make BIFL level machines. They're expensive, but 20+ years of service is common with these brands. Sebo machines even come with a 10 year warranty when you get them from a dealer. Can't go wrong with anything from these brands. Go to a brick and mortar vacuum store and avoid big box store brands like Shark and Dyson.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->The Miele you have is not intended for carpet so don't go with that. And it makes zero sense to replace a garbage cordless Shark with a garbage corded Shark. Take a look at the Simplicity S20EZM. It doesn't have a brush roll shut off but it does have manual height adjustment and HEPA filtration. If you have a Sebo dealer near you then Dart is $400 until 12/3 and that is a great vacuum for carpet and bare floors.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->Miele will always be the answer
r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->Yeah, had an assistant that worked for a vacuum repair/sales and she was adamant that Dyson was crap. The other models would literally clean up what the Dyson couldn’t. Miele is the best but my shark is lighter. So it depends on what you’re looking for.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I bought a Miele four years ago based on vac-tech recommendations and it’s been such a fantastic vacuum. We have young children who (like their parents) can sometimes be a little mischievous or naughty, or in fairness, just curious. Twice I’ve had parts break as a result of their, uh, curiosity and scientific experimentation with the vacuum. One piece was the bent section of the handle, and the other a coupling piece, but both times I was able to painlessly and easily order replacement apartments and install them myself. It’s fantastic, performs excellent, and isn’t designed with planned obsolescence in mind.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->When my Airstream died for the second time after 3 years (fried electronics) I scoured Reddit and other BIFL places for a recommendation. The one brand I heard most frequently and consistently was Miele. Despite not really being in the best financial situation to be buying such an expensive new vacuum I bit the bullet, as my old Airstream had been getting daily use and I just hated using my upright shark for hard floors. I did end up getting it on sale for nearly 40% off which was a huge difference at Miele's price point. Well let me tell you that this really feels like a thousand dollar vacuum. Tons of suction, surprisingly quiet and lots of little features you never knew you were missing. Back when I bought my Airstream the shop guy told me Miele was the gold standard for professional cleaning services. Wish I'd taken his advice then and maybe I'd have saved the $300+$150 repairs. I've had it less than a year though so unfortunately I can't personally attest to how long it will last, but I chose it because it seemed the brand most reliably getting the BIFL stamp of approval.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->I grew up using a miele, and those are the right choice for professionals. For at home, nothing compares with a Dyson. They’re incredible.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Which, in my opinion, Dysons are. The batteries can be replaced, or modded to accept tool batteries, they do not require filters, they’re easily repairable, and they’re incredibly convenient to use, which encourages regular vacuuming, leading to a cleaner home. People talk a lot about socks here, and those don’t last five years. Dysons are solid for at least a decade. Our Meile is pushing 20, but my mom has probably spent thousands on bags, and she’s had to repair the elbow mechanism more than once. I think it’s more than appropriate to discuss quality items here, even if they won’t last two generations. If we only talked about things that lasted that long, our sub would be full of hand tools and leather goods. I think it’s pretty widely accepted here that this sub has evolved into a sub where we seek out the highest quality entries for any product category. Miele always ranks #1, but that doesn’t mean Dyson isn’t the right choice for a lot of people. Habits are for life, and Dyson vacuums make it easier to get into the habit of vacuuming.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->1-2 years of use from a Dyson does not line up with my experiences. I’ve had two and they’re incredible workhorses. I grew up using nice Miele vacuums and the Dyson is way better for me since it’s easier to just whip out. Setting up a cord and lugging around the Miele body always made vacuuming my least favorite chore. With a Dyson, I find that I use it more. When tou consider that I’m keeping a cleaner place, that means that less dirt and dust will be around in my house which is good for health, and for keeping my other things nice. There are tradeoffs with owning a Dyson. Miele makes a better machine, but Dyson delivers a better experience. P.S. Dysons have filters that you need to clean to keep them working. The filter is washable and intended to be reused. Mieles require vacuum bags and replaceable air filters. Tradeoffs. Now if I were a housekeeper, you bet your ass I’d be using a Miele.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Miele is the way to go. Sucks they don’t have a convenient stick vacuum like a Dyson but I feel like the Miele has more longevity when cleaning up after hairy, heavy shedders like Bernese.
r/bernesemountaindogs • Best Vacuum?! ->Mieles are great. Just that it's a lot more convenient if you have a long cord when you're dealing with big homes Lindhaus doesn't have a big dealer network, and they're focused on the commercial market, which is probably why you haven't heard of them Make sure to get the HF6 with the powerhead
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for huge house, hardwood + 5000 sqft rug/carpet ->I bought a Miele for $1,000 and the thing was a piece of junk. Apparently it had a known issue and I wasn’t aware of it for a year. Vacuuming was a nightmare. I tried getting it fixed it but then it broke again. I would have returned it but I’m just always so extremely exhausted from a medical issue, I just never had the energy to deal with it. I threw it away and I’ll never buy another one again.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Last time I went down this rabbit hole I stumbled into a dealer after 15 hours of not sleeping to buy a Miele.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Agreed. Three crap Dysons in 5 years and now have a Miele for the last two. We’ll never go back. An added bonus is that it is significantly quieter. Edit: We have an 8yo golden and the Miele handles her hair like a champ.
r/goldenretrievers • Any recommendations on good Vacuums pretty please ->Really happy with my Miele. Hope the thing never dies.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Sebo. It’s the new Electrolux. I went from electrolux (40 years of service, inherited from my mom) which was amazing, to a Miele (20 years of service, inherited from step mom) to a Dyson Animal. The Dyson lasted 12 years before I got sick of it. I bought a Sebo! I’m 58 and I won’t need another vacuum before I die.
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->Man I used a Miele for the first time about a year ago and it’s absolutely amazing how much better they are at picking things up
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Everyone is gonna say Dyson, but no. My family has owned a vacuum retailer chain for 90 or so years and the best vacuums for fur are simplicity or Miele. Dysons might seem cool and hip but they break real easily.
r/samoyeds • Best vacuum for fur? ->Do you remember the vacuum repair guy AMA? That sold me on Miele. Bought one (after dealing with the constant breakdowns of Dyson and Shark) and never looked back.
r/internetparents • Internet Mom/Dad, what're the BEST vacuums overall? ->Miele Canister by far the best non disposable dust sucker (Staubsauger) Dust sucker Auf deutsch. Made in Germany 🇩🇪
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Don't be a CF open your wallet buy a good quality Miele or Bosch. You can find them 2nd hand on fakebook marketplace or fee bay. Theseswill last and you will not be spending $ every 3 to 5 yrs looking for another POS to replace the POS you currently have.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for a vacuum for pet hair, medium pile carpet, under $350 ->We never tried the shark. Ultimately, we bought some aftermarket parts for our dyson and it works good as new. I love the dyson stick vacuum for quick pickups. We also have a Miele for the whole house
r/VacuumCleaners • Wondering if anyone here has experience or knows of the Ryobi ONE+ Stick Vacuums and could help with advice on if I should get one or not, Ryobi tools have held up for quite a while and one of my favorite brands here in Australia. (I hate the pull along canister vacuums) ->We have both a Miele vacuum and a dyson stick. They serve different functions
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Definitely recommend a Miele. Powerful, reasonably compact for storage, works great on pet hair and affordable.
r/newzealand • Briscoes sale - vacuum cleaner recommendations please!! ->I got my Miele on FB Market place for 30 bucks.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->That sub is SO helpful. I went with a used Miele and it's so nice.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Glad I got my little meile, thing is awesome!
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Got a Miele and love it
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->I really like my Miele! I have a canister and it’s great.
r/VacuumCleaners • Bagless Vacuums ->I have long, thick, naturally curly hair. I love my Miele! They have a groove in the power head to cut the hair out easily. I also use the non brush version for floors without carpet. Best vacuum out there!
r/CleaningTips • Vacuum suggestions for long hair ->Definitely . My sister has one and it's even better than my trusty Henry
r/dyson • Which vacuum should I buy? ->Interesting stats. I guess I still ended up with Miele after seeing numerous vac-techs on here shouting out that brand. That probably was the biggest deciding factor, and so far it's turned out to be a good call. Any chance that influenced any of the data?
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Lmao I'd never seen the face on Henry before 😂 It kinda reminds me of my shop vac. I'd say the Miele so far has been nicely portable for my needs, I only wish the cord was like 10ft longer.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I bought the Dyson sphere back in the day thinking the ball would make vacuuming easier and would roll easy. It wa made out of hard plastic then would grind the dirt sand and rocks into the wood floor if it didn’t pick it up the first time. I hated my Dyson ball. I love my Miele.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->This. I have one of these and it has completely changed my mind about vacuum cleaners. I used to think that all vacuum cleaners only lasted a couple of years; however, I bought a Miele and the damn thing is a tank. I also bought mine to replace a Dyson. Dyson is massively overrated in my experience.
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->I got the miele- absolutely love it. That's a great price
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->I have 2 Miele's, one that I inherited (around 25 years old) and one that I purchased (around 15 years old). They are a bit more expensive than most other brands, but Miele straight robs you blind with their cost on bags and filters.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I get it. I have owned a couple of Dyson’s… one was a canister bought about 20 years ago and one was a cordless bought about 8 years ago. I kept the Canister going for 8 years but had to replace more than a few brittle plastic parts and it was held together with Epoxy at the end. The cordless battery didn’t last 6 months and I had to replace the canister assembly within 30 days. The clear plastics are simply very brittle in my anecdotal experience. Also have a Miele that was once dropped down the stairs and still works like new. It is 10 years old. I appreciate the convenience of cordless. I actually don’t see bagless as a positive. They objectively release a lot of contaminant’s into the air when emptying. Sure you can empty it outside… but having to go outside every time you use it is not convenient. With a good bagged vacuum, the bag helps filter the air and the bags last a long time. The holy grail for me would be a good bagged cordless vacuum with swappable batteries. We bought a Samsung Bespoke Jet which is pretty close to the ideal… but expensive. Bagless but has a charging base with a bag and filter in it that automatically empties the canister without any dirt getting into the air. Much more quiet than the Dyson, feels better made and includes two swappable batteries with a charger on the base for the 2nd battery.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I had an OG Dyson canister that we bought 20 years ago... and the plastics they used were super brittle then just like now. We got 10 years out of it... BUT we had to replace multiple parts and it was held together with epoxy and fiberglass patch kit tape all over. It was a mess. By comparison we have a Miele canister now that is 10 years old and is perfect.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I have a lower end Miele as my main vacuum and have had it for 10 years and it is like new... however I did supplement with a Dyson cordless for awhile and it went through a battery every year and I had to replace several broken plastic bits on the cannister.... also those make a mess when you try to empty them..... No cordless vacuums are BIFL.... HOWEVER we did get a Samsung Bespoke Jet cordless vac 2 years ago and I love that thing. Pricy for a cordless but it is way better quality than the Dyson and has a charging base that also contains a vacuum/bag that sucks the dirt out of it into a bag... so completely mess-less. It also has two batteries that can be swapped in seconds like a power tool. The second battery mounts to the dock in a second charger. It is also quieter than the Dyson and the Miele.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Fair, miele and sebo go the distance
r/VacuumCleaners • Recommendations for vacuums that will not void my carpet warranty ->I've had a shark for the last 6 years around the house It has been good, not perfect. The cables sheeting has ripped where it's got caught on something. But it's light and easy to use so it's a winner really. I've also got a Miele, that bad boy is well over a decade old, I got it from the in-laws. It's become my DIY vacuum and has fought it's way through a complete house remodel and is still going strong. It's sucked up more rocks and saw dust then anyone could reasonably expect.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->I used to have to replace Briscoes vacuum cleaner every 3 -4 years. My current Miele is now 12 years old and it is still going strong. Enough said.
r/newzealand • Briscoes sale - vacuum cleaner recommendations please!! ->I will die with my Miele. We've had it for 12+ years now, and only had to do a minor repair once, which I was able to do with help from youtube. Hands down, one of the best home purchases we've ever done.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->MIele is hands down the best vaccuum. I've had mine over 12 years, still works great
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->Miele. Not even a contest. Only negative is price but they last forever and Miele sells parts
r/CleaningTips • What is the Best Vacuum ->They are one of the most popular vacuums in the world. You won’t be disappointed
r/CleaningTips • What is the Best Vacuum ->Buying Miele was probably one of the best decisions I have ever made with any product purchase. Such a good vacuum and product.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->You turn off the power head from the handle on a Miele Not the suction control but realistically few have it on other than max, even if you are not supposed to
r/VacuumCleaners • [REVIEW] Miele Vacuums are a joke ->Miele - hands down the best!
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->I had a Dyson before we got our Miele. I bought the vactec hype and got the Miele a few years ago and did a head to head test. The Miele picked up so much dirt the Dyson has missed. It was pretty shocking.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I had a shark from Costco and it sucked after a bit. Bought a Miele and that thing fuckin rips. Best vacuum I ever had, 3 dog's and 3 cats with all carpet.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s the Best Affordable Vacuum That Actually Works? ->It's honestly the best vacuum I have ever had and it's not even close. It wasn't cheap but neither are Dyson's and they're garbage from what I've experienced. I think I was 400ish give or take and I live in Canada. The "powered" head on mine spins the head by the air flowing through the head so if you get something stuck it doesn't burn out a motor. It's honestly the best design I could think of. Theres a dial on the head to let more or less air through. The only complaint I have is that it works too good and everytime I use it I have to take scissors and cut the hair that's caught around the head in the brushes but it's not the vacuums fault I have a fucking hobby farm on a carpet sooo. 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. I usually go over the carpet a few times with the regular suction head then throw the old turbo head on 🏍️ You won't regret it.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s the Best Affordable Vacuum That Actually Works? ->We are Miele converts now. Spent about AUD 450 and no looking back.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best Vacuum for multi-pet household? ->Dyson stick vacuum cleaners are the easiest to use and the best design for domestic use IMO. I had a miele in the past, and dragging around a cleaner on little wheels and replacing bags is terrible: I don't care how long they last.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Sebo and Miele are BIFL. Dyson is not BIFL. If you buy a Sebo, the manual comes with an exploded parts diagram where you can buy each and every part. Dyson does not have this because when something breaks, they want you to buy a new vacuum. Same goes for Shark, Bissell and other bagless garbage that people keep recommending.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Agree my Miele is 16 years old and had no issues.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->I have a Miele and a top of the line Shark vacuum. The Miele works excellent, is sturdy and gets the job done. The Sharks is very versatile and has 10/10 suction and a rolling agitator that picks up very well. We’ve had our shark for over 6 years now and still works great. The shark also has LED lights and a detachable wand that makes cleaning small spaces and cars very easy. Both are great, but I would think the Miele is a little more sturdy and will last a lifetime. The Shark maybe a good ten years.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->It's very lightweight and extremely powerful for its size with good run time. We live in a large old house with 3 kids and a pet. I have a 15 year old Miele which is fantastic, but I'll be damned if I'm going to drag that thing up and down three floors regularly. Our Dyson V6 is 8+ years old and still going strong. It does 90% of the vacuuming because it can be easily picked up to spot clean a specific area and does a good job of it. Yes, it requires a bit more maintenance (cleaning) than the Miele, but it also doesn't require bags that are several dollars each, and again, most importantly, makes vacuuming a LOT easier.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I only use Miele. I use the bagged canister design for the whole house and for every mess. Even pet hair.
r/GuiltyDogs • Any vacuum cleaner recommendations? 👹 ->Miele canister w/bag. It is fantastic and has lost zero suction. Attachments for furniture, too. I say this as a proud servant to a 12-year-old Newfoundland and a clean freak. I also have a furry spaniel and a cat.
r/Newfoundlander • Best vacuum for Newfoundland hair? ->Miele corded canister vaccum. I used one of those Dyson cordless ones for a little and shocked at how awful it was a cleaning
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Just got a replacement - Miele corded canister. My god. THAT is a vacuum cleaner. It actually lifts dirt off the floors! Go figure. Bye bye Dyson. 🥳🍾🍻
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for insane amounts of dog hair? ->The comment regarding the handle creaky sounds and audible air leak... I have found the audible air leak in multiple Miele canisters (over the years) AND Sebo. I don't think this is a change from previous models I've used. It just seems to be a reality that they don't see as a significant concern (ie. likely to not affect performance in a meaningful way, but preventing it would probably require fittings that would likely add cost, decrease dependability, and in the very least, wear down with not much use to the point that they ultimately start leaking). I really don't think it likely makes a noteworthy difference and they know the benefit:cost situation. As for the creaky handle -with even slight "give" in it, I have definitely noted it, but again, I believe it is one of those, "it doesn't actually affect anything in a meaningful way, but it does allow for the fit and connections as intended" situations. I could be wrong, but if it were an issue, I think warranty costs alone would discourage them from continuing with the practice. BUT, again, there is no doubt, that it is a very real thing. I haven't had an issue with the swivel of the ET-1 but prefer how light and maneuverable it feels to me. The low profile is also much better than \*most\* of the high end power heads I've used. Thank you for the review and thoughts. It is nice to hear about experiences!
r/VacuumCleaners • Sebo E3 Real World Review ->Have a Miele canister. Paid a fraction of the price for it when I found one at the thrift store that someone neglected to clean their pet hair out of - but outstanding vaccuum.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My ex didn't like dragging around the canister vacuum I bought in 2005 and would buy a new Dyson or Shark stick vac every year. My Miele outlasted my marriage 💃🏽
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My Miele canister vac is 20 years old this year!
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Yup, I have that one, too. Love it. Bought over a decade ago with airline miles and credit card. Still going strong. My vacuum previous to Miele was a Dyson Animal. It stopped working after the warranty expired (5yrs?) and I didn't like the dust going poof every time I had to empty the cannister.
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->I replaced an old Dyson DC21 with the C3, and I'll tell you, the Miele canister is way easier to drag around than the heavy clunky old Dyson ever was.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I have a CXT vacuum at home. I originally bought it as a way to trick my toddler into helping me clean, but I've found that it's great as a quick, convenient cleaning tool. However, it doesn't really suffice on its own. I keep a Miele canister for serious cleaning jobs and have robot vacuuming running daily as well. I also have mostly hardwood flooring and low pile rugs - heavier carpeting would also not be good for the Makita. It has its place in the right ecosystem.
r/Makita • Makita vacuums for home use ->If you want a high quality vacuum that does everything well check out the Miele canister models.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best Vacuum for Carpet? Need Something That Actually Works ->I have two vacuums that I love. I have my old, original Dyson animal. It’s 20 years old and it’s still working. I also have a Miele canister vac and it’s the best. It’s not bagless, so you’ll have to buy bags for it, but it’s a great vac. I also use a roomba every once in a while. I used to run it downstairs at night, but it had problems when it came to the throw rugs I used to have down for my sweet old man when he was still with us.
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->I second the Miele.
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->My parents have a Miele and I love it!
r/labrador • Lab owners, what’s your favorite vacuum? Ours went out and we need a new one that’s great for dog hair ->I’ve got a Miehle canister and I love it
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I have Miele canister vacuum for my own home. I can't imagine having to change its bag after two or three homes! They'd have to be massive castles.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best Vacuum for Professional Cleaning Service? ->Thanks for the explanation. I’ve tried my families Miele canister when I lived with them and never got the hang of it. Would the Felix and the Lindhaus valzer be about the only two worthwhile options?
r/VacuumCleaners • An Honest Review - Sebo Felix Premium ->Miele canister, almost any model. That is all.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Bagless is trash! I’ve had all the popular name brands. They all end up reeking and blowing dust. Just about any high end bagged vacuum will kick a bagless’s butt. If it takes a paper bag, it’s not high end. Look for heavy (expensive) cloth type bags. You’ll never go back. I personally love my Miele canister vac. It’s about 13 years old now, and still running just like when it was new. It doesn’t blow dust everywhere, is easy to swap the bag. And doesn’t require any extra cleaning or maintenance. Just keep the bag replaced as necessary, and replace the HEPA filter once a year. It’s not cheap, but you gotta pay to play when you want nice things. But honestly even with the high premium price of the vacuum and its bags/filters. I still think it’s more economical than replacing a bagless POS every two to three years.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best Vacuum Cleaner for Carpet ->I don’t think I’d ever buy another Dyson, and I’ve used plug-in upright, and the handheld V6. Bagless vacuums require a lot of maintenance to keep everything shipshape. My Miele canister is god-tier perfect. Expensive, though.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I don't know about Miele. Our Miele canister is 10 years old and the wand broke. Took it to the vacuum store and it's $200CAD to replace. As I was considering ordering the replacement 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 head has been squealing as well and that's $180CAD. So to replace just the parts costs $580CAD to attach to my 10 year old canister or I can buy a new Miele C1 for $399 or a C3 for $699. I'm looking into SEBO as Miele was not what I expected.
