If you want the absolute best quality vacuum, I’d go with the [Miele Complete C3 Marin](https://productbible.com/product/miele-complete-c3-marin-vacuum-cleaner). It’s insanely powerful, super quiet, and built to last basically forever. Pricey, but worth it imo

r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->Another vote for Miele. We've recently bought this: [https://www.johnlewis.com/miele-complete-c3-125-edition-vacuum-cleaner-marine-blue/p111774588?s\_ppc=2dx\_mixed\_technology\_BAU&tmad=c&tmcampid=2&gad\_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1p28](https://www.johnlewis.com/miele-complete-c3-125-edition-vacuum-cleaner-marine-blue/p111774588?s_ppc=2dx_mixed_technology_BAU&tmad=c&tmcampid=2&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1p28BhCBARIsADP9HrNotT44Okb7VCdwUAVE5YnfRtEtrEQm6pZqYAWMBfPXFp5DbCjLJz0aAn1WEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds)[BhCBARIsADP9HrNotT44Okb7VCdwUAVE5YnfRtEtrEQm6pZqYAWMBfPXFp5DbCjLJz0aAn1WEALw\_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds](https://www.johnlewis.com/miele-complete-c3-125-edition-vacuum-cleaner-marine-blue/p111774588?s_ppc=2dx_mixed_technology_BAU&tmad=c&tmcampid=2&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1p28BhCBARIsADP9HrNotT44Okb7VCdwUAVE5YnfRtEtrEQm6pZqYAWMBfPXFp5DbCjLJz0aAn1WEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds) After our previous Miele needed a replacement/upgrade after 20 years of faithful service.
r/HENRYUKLifestyle • Vacuum cleaner recommendations ->I recently got a Miele Marin C3 that was an Amazon return, so I got it for half-price. The thing is a dream. It's quiet even on the max setting, and the main wand's height is adjustable. I vacuum even more now because it's such a nice, well-made device.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I’d highly recommend a canister vacuum cleaner with a dedicated bare-floor nozzle - the kind that’s just a brush with no wheels. Something like a Wessel-Werk CN250 or D 330 Turn & Clean. Both Miele and SEBO offer branded versions of these. These don’t have wheels and sit on just bristles. No plastic wheels and baseplates fo break. These glide over the uneven floors beautifully and strong suction will pick the dirt up out of the crevices. If you’re dealing with fine dust, bags are the way to go. No filters to wash, no dust cups to clean out, no plumes of dust. No, the bags won’t fill up instantly or loose suction the way old paper vacuum bags did. I’d strongly recommend looking at SEBO E3, or K3; Miele C1 or C3 canister with the Miele Parquet nozzle, Numatic Henry with the bare-floor only brush. If you find a canister you like that doesn’t have a no-wheels bare floor brush, you can get aftermarket ones either online or at your local vac shop. Most canisters use either a 35mm (Miele size) fitting, or generic 1 1/4” or 32mm fitting. Check out your local vacuum shop and let them know your flooring situation. They’ll be able to get you the exact attachments you need.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum recommendations for flagstone flooring and some carpet ->I’d buy an E3 any day over a C3 Marin. I think the E3 premium and C3 Marin are very comparable. But the E3 is less expensive, has speed control on the hose handle, a better tool set, tool-free removable brushroll, parts are far less expensive, and legendary SEBO commercial grade build quality and repairability. The Kenmore Elite upright is mehhh (I owned one). Its brush roll is very complex and totally not serviceable. Its hose is short and has limited use. But it is ridiculously powerful with a surprising amount of airflow and has excellent filtration.
r/VacuumCleaners • Consumer Reports - Best vacuums of 2025 list has two bagged vacuums ->Either the Sebo D4 Premium or Miele C3 Marin. Both are over your price range but will get the work done.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for huge house, hardwood + 5000 sqft rug/carpet ->If you live in the DC/MD/VA area, the owner of a place called Quality Vacuums closed his shop and is selling his remaining stock. I responded to his ad on Facebook marketplace and I've got to tell you I was sure that it was going to be some sort of scam. But it wasn't. I bought a brand new in box Miele C3 Complete Marin for $750. [https://www.facebook.com/share/162WEx9Tvn/?](https://www.facebook.com/share/162WEx9Tvn/?)
r/VacuumCleaners • /r/VacuumCleaners Monthly Deals & Marketplace - February 01, 2025 ->I have Miele c3 Marin. Very happy with the filtering before leaving vacuum. Happy with performance also.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the best bagged HEPA vacuum with a sealed system ->Asking for the "best" will certainly incite some (friendly) beef but I'll throw my (predictable) hat in the ring and say Go full fantasy and buy the Miele C3 Brilliant/Homecare+ model. It's Mieles C3 canister (quieter, longer cord, with onboard tools) and it's the most premium C3 canister with overheat protection, auto shutoff when parking, a filter timer, and, best of all, fingertip power/suction/brushroll controls. When being the one doing the vacuuming, fingertip controls are absolutely indispensable for convenience and agility when switching between floor types, surfaces, and attachments. If you or a loved one are not the one doing the vacuuming and you're concerned the fingertip controls might get damaged, get the Miele C3 Marin (or Homecare E). It has all the features of the premium C3 body minus the fingertip controls, which eliminates an expenny point of failure. FYI I have a used Miele c3 with fingertip controls from a cleaning company and it still works like a dream but the special hose is certainly a premium if you ever have to replace it (hopefully you won't). You should find a local Miele dealer (use the Miele website) and buy the Homecare models from a store to get the 5 year warranty. Mieles are stronger, quieter, and have a higher grade of filtration than Sebos (corroborated through measures like RTINGS and performance reviews, as well as anecdote). Anecdotally it also seems they pack their bags tighter than Sebos, so the bags last a little longer/the machine maintains good suction with a near full bag. Sebos come with a 7/10 year warranty and people like that they come from an industrial design background. They certainly look and feel industrial, which is also another point for Miele in my subjective opinion. The Sebo e3 And d4 come with fingertip controls, which is nice and a genuine boon. Yet again however I prefer Mieles hard floor tool (the parquet twister) and Mieles electro premium carpet brush (the seb236) over Sebos included tools. To give Sebo the best shot, you should try them both out side by side in a local vacuum dealer who's certified to sell both! Idt you'd dislike the Miele C3 but if you end up liking the Sebo e3 or D4, then go for it! You really can't go wrong with either.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best BIFL vacuum cleaner ->If you can swing ~$850 I'd say buy the Miele C3 Kona from a local Miele dealer. They're on sale now until the end of the holiday season apparently. The Kona comes with an electric power brush for deep cleaning of carpeting as well as a natural bristle hard floor brush for all hard flooring, especially delicate floors. Miele hard floor tool is definitely the best in the biz (but some people really like Sebos parquet tool (I hate the wheels)). The Kona is also part of their lineup that comes with the HEPA filter installed. The C3 excellence model has the smaller electro carpet brush and combi floor tool, without a broad filter for around $700 as well. The C1 cat&dog model is slightly cheaper ($700) with the same carpet & hard floor brush. It also comes with the charcoal filter instead of the HEPA but you can swap those as you please. The C1 has a marginally shorter cord and is slightly louder. Tbh I recommend Miele because you mention your new floors are "luxury" and if maintaining them (as well as being comfortable) are important to you, then a Miele vacuum is the only option in my eyes, for someone who values luxury/comfort. Any Miele will last DECADES with appropriate care. Make sure to thoroughly read the instruction manual and only use Miele bags! Any Kenmore bagged canister (say the elite for $400 new) would also be able to clean your new hard floors with their hard floor brush and clean carpet with their electro brush. The Kenmore can last a few decades, but you're likely to experience a hose break as the first issue with it, assuming you use Kenmore bags. The Kenmore is categorically worse than the Miele but is also half the price (with some more features like finger tip controls and lights on the cleaner head) and will still clean & operate better than the majority of vacuums on the market (bagless). The fully featured Miele "fantasy" are the Homecare+ or Brilliant models (the Homecare + is only sold in stores and comes with a 5 yr warranty). They also have fingertip controls and lights galore. The fingertip controls are certainly a killer feature but these machines retail for about $1800. It's probably $~1500 with the ongoing sale (but it seems like the sale doesn't apply to the flagship models 😭). The Miele Marin is the "value" buy with some nice features like a filter timer and overheat protection as well as a lit carpet brush. It's being sold for $1000 now with this sale. Use Mieles website to find a vacuum dealer near you and try out the models and ask for the best price!
r/VacuumCleaners • Recommend a Vacuum Cleaner for a Luxury Vinyl Floor. Thanks. ->The wands failing, hoses going bad, internal connection sockets frying, cord reels going bad. Even some of the reviews in the links posted comment on some of these issues. Both models you posted aren't in the US product line either so that is a different ball of wax than US dealers have anyway. In the USA, the longest warranty you can get is 5 years total and that just on the Homecare models. The rest are only 1-3 years now. And if that problem happen again, you've only got six months coverage on it. The C3 HomeCare + for instance has gone up over $300 since 2020 (retail MAP is $1779 US these days.) Significant price increases on many other models like the Marin and Brilliant too (both of which only have a 3 year warranty now.) Perhaps things are different in Canada and perhaps Miele is just pulling this just in the US, but I am simply stating what I've seen managing retail/repair shops in the states so buy/don't buy any crap you wish.
r/VacuumCleaners • Miele - Why so many bad reviews despite high regard here in community? ->Turbo brush retails for $120 for the stb 305 . Or you get the model that has it included In Canada watch for sales Not all sebo have electro brushes , In Canada the best deal for one with a turbo brush is the Costco multisurface model Best deal for electro brush is the c3 excellence on sale for $699
r/VacuumCleaners • Miele - Why so many bad reviews despite high regard here in community? ->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 ->Just a heads up the Miele C3 Multi Surface is from Costco CANADA. It isn't available through the U.S. Costco. If you live, work, or visit Canada it can be a great value but you don't get any U.S. warranty. To your question the turbo brush is good for low to medium pile rugs. If you have long pet or human hair I don't like turbo brushes because the narrow diameter gets more hairwrap than a electric powerhead that is usually wider diameter. If you don't have half or more rugs and you don't have to deal with lots of long hair the turbo brush is fine. You can also clean the rugs with the Allteq SBD 365 combo brush. You retract the brushes and lower the suction. No brushroll means no hairwrap. I wouldn't want to vacuum a whole carpeted room with this brush because it's more arm work but for a few area rugs and delicate rugs it's fine.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum Recommendation ->What's the current Siemens vacuum that you currently have, and what do you find lacking in terms of it's performance? Any of the bagged and corded Bosch/Siemens canisters will outperform that Kenmore bagless vacuum any day You just need a pure suction, corded, bagged vacuum In terms of budget, I'd go Bosch/Siemens in the middle tier, Miele C3 and Sebo E1/K1 in the upper tier If looking at cordless, you can look at the Vorwerk ones
r/VacuumCleaners • [Germany] Budget vacuum cleaner for mid-size apartment with a few rugs under 200eur ->The C3's in the US are not the same ones as the rest of the world. They are wired and equipped with a powered brushroll for wall to wall carpet
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->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 ->MIELE!! I have the c3. It’s a canister, uses HEPA bags and a HEPA filter so zero smell. Cost of supplies are reasonable to replace. Depending on the package you will get different attachments, but you need the carpet attachment that is motorized, and the hardwood floor/low pile carpet manual attachment. This vacuum has changed my life. I was getting dried mud from my dogs and fur; thing thing is small but it will suck the dirt from deeeeep downs Bags are better than non bag because of the particulars are sealed and no breathing in try to dump. It
r/AutoDetailing • What is the best vacuum? I have a ridged and can never seem to get the majoring of carpets cleaned with them. ->Our boys really only shed in the Spring. That said I've gone through two Dysons in 3 years. The problem is if ANYTHING other than fur gets picked up, (twig, leaf, pine needle, moss), the Dyson immediately stops sucking. Then I have to take apart the hoses and manually clean them out. So, on average, for every whole house cleaning, I have two manual unclogging sessions. The air path in the Animal and Multi-Floor models have three 60° turns which is where the clogs occur. I tried Kenmore, (DON'T) and Shark, (broke after 4 months) and finally settled on a used Meile C3. It uses expensive bags, (grrr) BUT the level of clean afterwards is amazing. It's a straight suction line from floor to bag and the floor is spotless afterwards. I know Meile machines cost a fortune, ($1,200 new) but it really is the last vacuum you'll ever need. I found my used C3 on Facebook Marketplace for $300 and can't recommend it highly enough. It just works. Period. Best of luck with your Flooofy new friend! Lots and lots of picture posts please! ❤️
r/bernesemountaindogs • Best Vacuum?! ->I did, best decision for wife happiness in a while next to the speed queen washer/dryer. I had Dyson big ball vacuums for the decade prior and they are hot garbage after 6-12 months of use. You have to tear apart the canister to clean the caked on dust and dried skin out of it for it to not smell like a moldy foot every time you turn it on. Oh, and the Hepa filter is a royal pain to change on the newer big ball models and if you don't change it (dyson doesn't tell you you need to every 6-12 months) it burns up the motor. The Meile C3 is a bagged vacuum that only has a hose that can cake up with that junk and that's unlikely. If it starts stinking, you change the bag and you have a new vacuum again. I'd rather spend $1,400 once (theoretically for 15+ years) and $80/year in bags than spending $300-500 every two years on a new crappy vacuum.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->The answer is that you need 2 vacuums: - a handheld (Dyson) - a full size (Miele) I would use the handheld every day to get all the tumbleweeds under the dining table, under furniture, and around the perimeter of all rooms. Then the housekeeper uses the full size vacuum on all the carpets.
r/Newfoundlander • Best vacuum for Newfoundland hair? ->Trash all of them, none of those are good vacuums (except the Miele). Also look into the Simplicity Jill, Henry 160 and Sebo K2.
r/VacuumCleaners • what is best vacuum for rugs and wood floors? ->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? ->With the Miele, upgrading to a powered head would involve purchasing an electric hose,wand and power brush, which is pricey. If you truly want/need a powered nozzle, look at the units already equipped and then compare them to the Sebo k3/e3. The Mieles are more refined units in terms of user friendliness, but the Sebos are very nice units without the bells and whistles. It all depends on what you prefer for your vacuuming style. The Sebo bags are both smaller than the Miele bags, but the e1 is closer in size. The Sebo has a clip attachment for the dusting brush to go on the wand while the Miele attachments are all stored on the canister. The Sebo cords are a foot longer than the Miele. The Miele has 3 different parking spots for wand nozzles, while the Sebo has 2. The Miele has push button suction selection that can be operated by hand or foot while the Sebo has a dial selection which is only practically used by hand.
r/VacuumCleaners • Need some help choosing a bagged vacuum cleaner (UK) ->get a corded canister vacuum like a sebo e3,k3 or d4 or a miele c3 and they will actually last you 10 years and can be repaired by yourself if they ever make problems.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->> Consumer store brands like Shark and Dyson will not last that long And when they break, they are often non repairable. They'll throw in features like capacitive touch buttons just so that there's a complicated bit of microelectronics in there, and the thing doesn't work without that without some major hack-ery. And they skimp on filtration, so even the parts that should last essentially forever like an impeller blade, bearings, and motors - they get destroyed way faster. Meanwhile a Miele? The bag alone does a better job filtering than the whole of any Dyson or Shark. Then it goes through a pre-filter, and then a HEPA or carbon filter. The inside of my C3 is basically spotless. I could eat out of it, and I've had it for 8 years, with two dogs.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Agree with the C3! We have a BMD and Husky and it’s been incredible.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for pet hair in 2025? Need something that actually sucks (in a good way) ->if u are allergic or have allergic family members miele is the way to go. Every characteristic of sebo is better than miele, except the filtration. Filtration was the reason for me to pick up my miele c3 as well.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for huge house, hardwood + 5000 sqft rug/carpet ->i use a steam vacuum(polti fav80) to mop my floors almost daily. U pour 0.5 litres of water, and i just mop everything with hot steam. After dry vacuuming with my miele ofc. But i dont vacuum everyday, like once in 4 days. But mopping everyday, cuz it literally takes 15 minutes to wipe the most common used surfaces. Usually it's bathrooms, doorway and kitchen. This routine significantly improved the allergy situation in our family.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for huge house, hardwood + 5000 sqft rug/carpet ->Same situation, could not be convinced a Miele would be 4x+ better at 4-8x the price. Eventually got to try a c3 though and I'd concede that it sucks hard and probably filters better but the free accessories and the extra front lift roller on the model I got are a better value.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Best vacuum I’ve ever owned. Have Dysons too. Miele C3 worth every penny. Once you commit and use it and see how great it is, there’s nk turning back.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I am using Miele C3. And it's good. Pros: Good operating radius Telescopic suction arm Attachments are always handy Easy to drag/push while vacuuming I bought it a couple of months back so can't comment on suction power. However, it's a bagged vacuum so that shouldn't be a problem.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the Best Vacuum Cleaner that Actually Lasts? ->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 ->Re: upright vs canister. I can’t say much more than old man has already said. But imo your best option is to find a local Miele/Sebo dealer and take a dart/felix/k3 and a Miele C1 cat and dog for a test drive to see if *you* prefer an upright or a canister. there is no right answer, it’s purely personal preference. For me, I prefer a canister. (Miele C3) It’s lights out on hard flooring vs an upright (sans Felix) IMO. But admittedly there is a learning curve for carpet because the motor doesn’t glide along as easy. What helped me get used to the canister was vacuuming *IN* to the room. Rather than backing out of it like so many do with an upright. I’m a total convert to canisters now, they’re very light in the hand, maneuverable and easy for above floor cleaning. The Felix is a good in-between. It has a hard floor attachment but is still an upright form factor.
r/VacuumCleaners • Need helping picking a Vacuum. Looking for suggestions! ->Pros: Filtration: my allergies are basically gone after switching from bagless. This was worth the price of admission alone. Lifespan: My C3 is almost a decade old and performs as it did on day 1 with only 1 (common) issue with the wand collapsing. I was burning through vacuums every 2 years and wasting a ton of money (and resources tbh) on vacuums. So this was a big selling point for me. Maneuverability: a canister form factor is way more versatile IMO than an upright. The wand makes it easy to get in to nooks and crannies that an upright just can’t. Not to mention the above floor cleaning ability. I’d also check out a Sebo k3 or e3. They’re every bit as good (arguably better) than a Miele and have a much longer warranty. Cons: Cost. That’s it. But if you buy a $1k vacuum and it lasts 20+ years, is it really *that* expensive? (Only buy genuine bags if you want it to last that long - don’t cheap out and get 3rd party bags)
r/VacuumCleaners • Need helping picking a Vacuum. Looking for suggestions! ->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? ->Ask r/vacuumcleaners Miele C3 or Sebo E3, Dart or Felix are all excellent options for weekly deep cleans. Then get a cheap cordless stick for quick messes.
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Dude is a paid shark shill. Take what he says with a huge grain of salt. Miele, Sebo, Henry or Lindhaus are the correct answers
r/BuyItForLife • Best vacuum cleaner? ->Miele, Sebo or Lindhaus. Check out r/vacuumcleaners
r/BuyItForLife • What’s the best corded vacuum of 2025??? ->What pile is the carpet? As long as it’s not shag You could do a Miele C1 pure suction with the accessory turbo hand tool for the stairs. The Miele is light enough where you can carry the motor in one hand and the wand in the other hand. I do it all the time with my C3.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for carpeted stairs and hardwood? ->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? ->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? ->The old ones yes do last more than a couple years. However, New sharks are an absolute joke. Disposable. A well built machine likely won’t have any issues in the first place, but if they do it’s easily repaired. For example I’ve had my Miele C3 for almost a decade and have had 0 issues with it. It will likely last another decade or longer before I give it to my kids or family. What’s your budget and flooring like?
r/VacuumCleaners • Is shark a good choice if I don't plan on repairing my vacuum? ->Only issue I've had with my Miele c3 is the power head disconnecting when vacuuming. I physically have to hold the wand with my left hand and handle with my right to keep steady power. I say only, it's a pain in the arse. I love the machine but that issue has been pissing me off. I actually wanted a Sebo to replace my older c3 I gave to my folks, but Miele had a sale and it was just over half the cost to get the Miele with a carpet brush as it would have to grab a Sebo.
r/VacuumCleaners • Miele - Why so many bad reviews despite high regard here in community? ->At the handle. There is some play so if I pull the handle without supporting the wand the terminals briefly disconnect and I lose all power to the head. They are still physically locked together but I guess there's a big enough gap between the connections. I'm not sure a replacement button would help. I bought the vacuum in December and it was like that from either the start or a few vacuums later. I've just got in the habit of using both hands and continually holding the wand and handle tight together.
r/VacuumCleaners • Miele - Why so many bad reviews despite high regard here in community? ->Yeah I was afraid of arcing. Appreciate the tip. I've been extremely busy but I may try to go through warranty. I detach the wand pretty much every single time I use the vacuum lol.
r/VacuumCleaners • Miele - Why so many bad reviews despite high regard here in community? ->Miele is a premium brand for sure, but the price difference is well justified. I have C3 Complete, carpet, cats, and that thing sucks hard (the good kind of suck). Have only had it for a few years and so far so good in terms of reliability, but optimistic about it. That said, I previously had a Dyson DC-series upright - had it for 8 years with no problems. It was still alive, I just had to get rid of it because I was moving and couldn't take it with me. So I guess even on "lesser" brands you could get lucky. But through my childhood, my parents kept buying Hoovers and Dirt Devils and GEs and all kinds of "walmart specials" and I feel like we had a new vac every 2 years or so because the old one would just crap out. So I am definitely traumatized enough to consider it very frugal to be buying a more "premium" suck machine.
r/Frugal • Vacuum cleaner recommendation for Black Friday/cyber Monday? ->just buy a miele for like 200-300?
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->idk where youd drawn the line between low and tall but my miele c3 works great on all the rugs we have
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->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 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 ->About a decade with our Miele C3 here, and I'm still not sure it was worth it. Sure it seems reliable, but the previous bagless Bissell lasted 10+ years too and it cost a fraction of the Miele - which *still* eats money with the requisite bag replacements. I also agree with your other comments - the canister is so godawful at maneuvering around corridors/corners, and will flip upside down if given half a chance. The cord is just slightly too short (a problem I've never had with any previous vacuum until this machine), and the plug heats up so much it feels like it's going to melt. My C3 is not the pet specific version, but its regular floorhead is a goddamn magnet for animal hair and requires multiple cleanings per use. So annoying.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Have the Miele C3 and it’s a joy to vacuum every time I do
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->Miele C3 with the extra wide upholstery attachment without the roller. Set it on the highest suction, go slow. No shoes on the rug!
r/VacuumCleaners • Recs for a vacuum you’ve actually used on VERY thick 3”shag rug 🙏🏼 ->Popular doesn't mean good. It means lots of marketing. As someone who owns a v10 and a Miele c3 complete, the Dyson is a toy

r/VacuumCleaners • Help me pick a bagged canister vacuum ->The Miele C3 is my recommendation for those wanting superior filtration. It’s not of the only two vacuums I can think of that are H13-rated HEPA. Most hepa is lower grade and less effective. It might bend be H14. Filters 99.999% of all particles down to 0.3 microns. Efficacy rating for 0.1 microns is 99.95%.
r/VacuumCleaners • Recommendations for powerful allergy relief vacuum ->That's not quite true. Look at Miele USA website -there are C3 models available in US with and without the electric brush. Electro brush (seb236) is sold separately in Europe at around 200-250 eur, on top of C3 price of around 200-250 eur (so, a total of 500,maybe 600 eur). Miele is just exceptionally expensive in USA - I'm guessing probably due to lower voltage (and thus more expensive motor required for the same wattage)?
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Love my D4. I had local stores with both the D4 and Miele C3 Complete and the D4 was the easy choice. SEBO E3 is the competitor to the Miele C3 for less $ and the D4 is just outright better for the same price as the C3. If you only have access to one or the other you'll be happy no matter what, but if you have the option the SEBO will be the better buy.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I bought the C3 years ago, but I'm not so rich as to be able to splurge for the brush wand that doubled the cost. But I've wondered about it for years, does anyone have experience going from *without* to *with*? Is it worth the money? And BTW I love my Miele, but it is over-hyped and has plenty of flaws.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->+1 for Miele, and good advice on a bagged model. My Miele has been going strong for 16 years now — only real difference is a few scuffs.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->Miele C3 is the best vacuum I have ever had. Hands down. Edit: is this in MX pesos? My Miele Complete C3 Silence was €300...
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I bought a c3 a while back bc of all the vactech recommendations on Reddit. Last year I finally got a Dyson as a wedding gift, and my god I vacuum so much more now. Haven’t you he’d the c3 since. Granted I live in a small apt in NYC, but I’ll basically vacuum everyday whenever I see anything on the ground. Even if the c3 is much better at cleaning, it doesn’t mean much to me if it means I’ll only vacuum every other week vs once a day.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->This may not be that helpful to you, but fwiw, when my Miele C3 is on highest power, I can barely even budge it on my carpet because of how strong it's suctioning on. Suction power is important to me as well
r/VacuumCleaners • Do good vacuums still exist in Europe? ->Miele C3 for life gang! I previously had a Dyson Animal for almost a decade and the improvement was shocking to me. Of course, there had likely been enhancements to the DAs in the meantime.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I own two Dysons and a Miele C3. I've had the Dyson Ball for about 12 years. I hated emptying the thing because of all the dust, etc, forcing me to always take it to the outside trashcan, which cut down on vacuuming in the winter and in the rain. Based on many, many recommendations I got the Miele and the powerhead jammed with pet hair within the first few minutes. "Not a problem, I'll just pull the roller and cut the hair off", I thought. The damn thing is not designed to be serviced except by a repairman. Seriously, even for hair wound up on the roller bar. After spending a couple of hours taking apart and putting it back together, I 3D printed an adapter to accommodate my Dyson tangle free turbine, which handles pet hair with practically no issues. That is a pretty good combination, to be honest, but that Dyson head is only about 4 inches wide, resulting in a lot of push/pull over the carpet. Plenty of suction from the Miele which, other than the servicing issue, I think is a good vacuum, but seriously over-priced--just like most Dysons. But after 5 years of the Miele-Dyson combo, I researched to see if the was anything new to tackle pet hair and found Dyson had improved things while Miele appears stuck. Enter the Dyson V15 Detect. I have not touched the Miele since I got the V15 a year ago. Good battery, good suction, handles pet hair way better than the old tangle-free turbine head and I can pull the roller bar, clear the wound up hair and be vacuuming again in less than 5 minutes. I still have the Miele and I should probably do a test with a clean bag and see how much of anything the V15 is missing (since the V15 will get all the pet hair). There are definite advantages to being corded and using bags, but those same things are also negatives in many circumstances. With the V15, I am less reluctant to vacuum and tackle patches of pet hair with vigor. With the Miele, I am pretty confident it is removing plenty of fine dust with the HEPA filtering and changing a bag is cleaner than emptying the V15 (which is far better than the old Dyson ball canister). I like my V15 for now. I'd love to see something better for pet hair from ANYBODY in the next 5 years, but especially from the robo-vacuum folks.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->You will want a Miele c3 or sebo E3/D4 premium. Make sure if you get the Miele that it comes with an electric powerhead and the parquet twister XL. If you go for either of the SEBOs, get their parquet tool. If you must have an upright, get a sebo dart/felix (they are the same vacuum but the Felix is the “premium version”) and both of these have the convenience of a canister in the form of an upright. I can vouch for the sebo models mentioned as I own them and use them In my home- my Felix is coming up on 10yrs next month.
r/VacuumCleaners • Vacuum Recommendation for Cleaning Business ->A got a Miele C3 full set for about 90$ used. The previous owner replaced the filters and sold it with a clean bag. This retails for about 300$ in my area. All I can say is: **This bad boy sucks!** It got good suction, I'd say a pleasant smooth noise (different from any other vacuum I had). I risked getting it used because of their reputation of being reliable. Sure, it's beat up on the aesthetics side (scratches, some paint chips, the brushes are maybe 70% ok, etc.) but functionality wise it's perfect.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->Coincidentally I did a lot of vacuum research recently. Here's a few things I learned. 1. Get a bagged vacuum. The convenience of bagless is a lie. The dirt ends up building up on the inside of the vacuum causing it to not work as well and for more of the dirt to be blown back into the air. Most people dont know that you should also replace the filter yearly which costs about the same as a box of bags for the year. And with bagged, you dont to worry about cleaning the vacuum so often or as thorough cause the dirt is in the bag. 2. Vacuums advertised as per vacuums are the same vacuum in a different colour and marked up. It's marketing. As long as it comes with a brush roller that is easy enough to detangle and clean out, you're good. 3. Cordless are really only good for quick jobs. When doing a good proper vacuum you want something that isn't gonna die on you halfway through especially on carpet that you gotta go over a few times because of the lovable floofs. A good pick is one with a long ass cord and is retractable with a push of a button. My commendation would be to get a Miele. There's a good deal at Costco for the Miele complete. As soon as I got ours and tried it, I laughed at our stupid stinky Dyson stick.
r/bernesemountaindogs • Best Vacuum?! ->The Miele c3 is objectively better than the Dysons above it
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My last Miele was over 20 years old. I wanted to exchange the handle and Miele even gave me the part number, but I got a good deal for a new C3.
r/BuyItForLife • best bifl vacuum cleaner? ->We have a Miele complete 3 which is great but a bit cumbersome for daily use. We recently got a shark stick vacuum during Black Friday and the amount it gets off the tile is insane. It's so easy to use on a daily basis as well. It's frankly horrifying considering we might vacuum once a week before and now we pull an entire little canister on the shark per day.
r/BuyItForLife • Can someone please recommend a good vacuum cleaner for laminate floorings? ->Absolutely. They also sell a C3 for hard floors. The C3 has more bells and whistles then the C1.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->Hey, I’m sorry I didn’t get back sooner. If you have no carpets or really thin area rugs, get the regular C3. If you have wall to wall carpets or a thicker area rug, get the C3 Cat and Dog. The C3 Cat and Dog has a power head as the regular C3 doesn’t.
r/VacuumCleaners • What is the best vacuum to buy of these 3 options? ->Sebo’s are overhyped i’m very happy with my miele C3
r/VacuumCleaners • An Honest Review - Sebo Felix Premium ->In my country the k3 has topped the list for years. With the E3 being second. The C3 is normally the 3rd. It is worth noting that the C3s here don't come with a powerhead only a turbo head.
r/VacuumCleaners • Consumer Reports - Best vacuums of 2025 list has two bagged vacuums ->Agree about Miele! I just purchased the c3 after having a Dyson cordless, Dyson ball, kenmore canister, shark stick corded bagless and a shark cordless also bagless. This is over the course of 20 years. I cannot believe how good this vacuum works. It is by far the most powerful vacuum i ever used. When shopping for a vacuum always check the watts higher watts has better suction. The Miele is like 1200 watts vs a shark bagless that may only be like 5-600 watts. I also do not recommend bagless i feel they aren’t as powerful. Good luck!
r/VacuumCleaners • Searching for vacuum for high-traffic house ->I got the Miele c3 after going on the vaccum sub and it’s been absolutely amazing. Wouldn’t couldn’t go back.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Miele c3 complete is the vacuum I got and I have a husky. It works amazing and is worth every penny.
r/VacuumCleaners • Best vacuum for pet hair in 2025? Need something that actually sucks (in a good way) ->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 just bought my Miele c3 for £194 from the Miele outlet - sorry America
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->Even at American prices it's worth every penny. Stronger and quieter than any vacuum I've ever used. My only regret is I don't have the powered carpet brush attachment. The air powered one is ok but does get bogged down on thicker carpet
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->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. ->Not cheap, but I suggest Miele C3. Hoping it’s the last vacuum I ever own, love it so far.
r/VacuumCleaners • An Honest Review - Sebo Felix Premium ->Why? I use a C3 as my garage vacuum(because there's no reason to bring it inside), there's nothing to write home about. Use a V15 with fluffy optic for the house and there's no reason to plug the c3 in. The Miele is fucking annoying and likes to roll over. I've had the older dysons and yes they were much worse/trash, but for a V15 vs C3 there are no advantages to make me want to plug and be attached to a hose.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->I spent about two years dithering and then a month researching and got a Miele C3 to replace my falling-apart and LOUD Dyson Animal. It was a good choice. Quiet and no dust. I did remove all the carpeting in my house, but still need to vacuum up the cat tumbleweed under the bed and sofa, as well as the “welcome” mats inside the house where I leave my outdoor shoes.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->You do realize how loud a shop vac is compared to something like a Miele c3, right? They're a good 5-15 dB louder depending on the model, which is a massive difference.
r/VacuumCleaners • Looking for the Best Vacuum Cleaner that Actually Lasts? ->For BIFL you gotta go with the Miele. Our C3 was a wedding present and outside of two services (just tune ups) that baby has been doing it’s thang for 8+ years. Meanwhile Dyson has a new model every 6 months
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 ->Miele! We have 9 cats and a dog.
r/torties • Vaccume cleaner suggestions SPECIFICALLY for pet hair? ->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?! ->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 ->Miele - hands down the best!
r/AskIreland • Vacuum cleaner recommendations? ->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? ->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 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/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.
r/BuyItForLife • I analyzed the 25 most recommended vacuum cleaners on reddit ->My Miele has been going to 25+ years without any repairs or issues
r/homeowners • Best (cost/performance) vacuum cleaner? ->
