A bagged Miele canister would be a great option. You’re right, there are a lot of options, and the main difference is what type of flooring they can clean.
Canisters with powered floorheads that clean carpet well are the most expensive.
Any if the following four models would work for you but I would choose the Guard M1 Parquet XL. It’s a newer design and has a good hard floor tool.
Classic C1: Best if you want a proven, no-frills Miele vacuum for mixed floors at a lower price.
Guard M1: Better choice if you want updated filters, easier controls, integrated tool storage, and a bit more reach and convenience.

Complete C2 Hardfloor PowerLine: Great choice if you want a traditional mid-range Miele with effective tools and don’t mind the older design.
Guard M1 Parquet XL: Better for modern convenience, updated filtration, lighter weight, and especially excellent hard-floor cleaning with a wider head.
The Miele C2 Hardfloor actually sounds like the perfect model for both of those spaces. If you find that you’ll have some minimal low pile rugs, grab yourself a turbo head later down the road.
OP didn’t mention the performance at all on their post. 🤣🥴 Glad you find your vacuum sexy and ergonomic. Meanwhile the rest of us Miele and Sebo owners will enjoy the actually clean floors and exhaust air being cleaner than what is sucked in.
I got a Miele C2 in ~2017 after reading all his AMA’s. Now I’m reminded I need to get it tuned-up for maintenance.
The suction is strong as ever but the only downside is buying the vacuum bags which became a pain after I got a hairy dog.
I tried to save a few bucks by getting Amazon dupe cheaper bags and of course, it easily overfilled and exploded the dirt inside the vacuum cleaner.
TLDR: buy Miele bags only
At first I was like nah I'm not paying for bags every 5 minutes bla bla bla...
Amazon do an exact replica for a fraction of the cost.
And the suction is just constant.
The shark needed dismantling every 7 minutes to unclog something or other and I was constantly wondering if it was always like this or has it gotten worse.
If the Miele breaks for any reason, I'll be replacing it with another one.
If you want to protect your hardwood floors, do yourself a favor and invest in a Miele. I’ve had Dyson, Shark, and other brands, the Miele has had no issues, have had it over 10 years now. I have a C2 Complete canister model and use on mostly hardwood floors.
