Miele - Complete C2 Tango EcoLine (SFAP3)

We have a Miele Tango and oh my god best vacuum of my life. I can never go back.

I'm joking haha. I have a miele c3 currently, and also have had the older version of what the c2 became, as well as an electrolux. I am very much not a fan of disposable dysons or sharks 😂

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

Agreed with the C1 cat and dog rec (it can do your carpets very well) but I wouldn’t buy from Amazon and I would not recommend the bagless version.

I’d still stick with the C1 it’s made in Germany. The C2 (while still great) is made in China. If you are only using it for hard floor get the C1 pure suction. If you want it to do carpets too, C1 cat and dog.

Check out r/vacuumcleaners As mentioned Miele and Sebo are top brands. You can safely ignore any shark or Dyson recs. They’re garbage. As is anything bagless.

Vacuum wars is a paid shark shill and not to be trusted. Hell Chris even appeared in a shark commercial. BIFL vacuums absolutely exist. They’re corded and bagged made by brands like Miele and Sebo.

Miele, Sebo or Lindhaus. Check out r/vacuumcleaners

This is the answer! You can still get a Miele for only hard flooring.

Agree with J3ttf! The Miele is a worthy splurge!

Miele, Sebo, Henry, Lindhaus. Shark and Dyson are garbage. Check out r/vacuumcleaners

You want to ask r/vacuumcleaners. Miele or Sebo is the correct answer. Corded and bagged. Safely ignore any shark or Dyson recs. Find a local dealer and take a few Miele’s and sebos for a test drive. Specifically the Sebo dart if it’s mostly for carpet.

I splurged and got a low-end Miele - the Miele C2 - and I have NEVER regretted the decision. Expensive, but the vacuum I've wanted all my life.

Same, getting a miele bag vac was such a gamechanger.

Go miele. You won't go back. We have a miele c2 and I've never experienced a more powerful, capable vacuum. Also since it's a bag vac it's incredibly easy to repair. Stay away from the more common brands like Dyson, vax, and shark. They're all different flavours of meh. Henry is fine but not great for doing your whole house, they're very heavy and unwieldy.

If you have carpet and kids, I wouldn’t switch to a cordless, I tried that and it didn’t work. A couple of options to consider would be Sebo Felix (or Dart plus parquet tool). A smaller canister like the Sebo e/k series or Miele c2 (would likely fall out of budget). I would try and stick it out with the c3 and get a cheap cordless (just get whatever is on sale at Canadian Tire or Costco) to use for quick daily pickups and use the c3 every week or so.

Miele C2. I have had mine for 5+ years now. Absolutely brilliant, has excellent suction power, good filters and multiple nozzle heads. Dream.

Went from a shark cordless to a Miele C2 and never looked back.

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.

With the Miele C2 (alot less than 600 quid) you push the button on the back and the cord wraps up for you. Just putting it out there

I can say the Miele C1,2, and 3 bags or like $45 for the XL ones and it’s 8 bags or for you, a year supply. though you might only go through 5-6 cause they do compact the dust pretty well. And it comes with 2 pre motor filters and 2 post motor filters. So you get to change it’s primary filter every time you change bags, the pre motor filter which is what keeps the motor clean and running for a long time every 4 bags and the post motor filter which is the the last stand filter for anything that might have made it through every 4 bags. Also air flowing through a MERV 13 filter several times is the equivalent to a hepa filter cause they filter the same .3 micron particles and hepa filters 99% and MERV 13 filters 75-85%. So this would be close if not better than “hospital grade filtration.” And if you must they sell a hepa grade post motor filter as well for most models. So bagged would be great for your needs, and for an extra $45 you get a machine that will last at least twice if not up to four times as long as any baggless vacuum. I also own a Dyson stick for the past 2 years and my dad owns a Dyson animal ball for the past 15 years and they work pretty darn well. Shark might not last as long but the don’t leak dust either and is cheaper from what I’ve seen so its also is a viable option. Best of luck!!
