Any Miele will deal with fur, the cat dog is just a power head and their air clean filter which has carbon which helps with the animal smell. Otherwise, the C3 Kona (comes with HEPA filter instead of carbon filter) will be just fine for you. The C3 has a complete sealed system which is better than C1 if you have issues with allergies. Also, remember, you buy a Miele or Sebo…you’ll never buy a vacuum again. Any Miele is good though and most importantly, lightweight!

Top contenders: Henry Quick, Miele Duoflex or Triflex, Samsung Jet Bespoke AI, 85 or 75. LG A9 Cord Zero, Shark PowerDetect, Shark Vertex Pro. The Henry, Samsung Bespoke AI and Cord Zero A9 all feature a bagged mechanism of some kind which make them hygienically a step above the rest. The Henry is the only cordless that actually has a bag which is unique to this category.

The mieles have small capacity, you'll be emptying them absolutely constantly. Plus it'll need regular filter cleaning. Otherwise the duoflex is pretty good ive heard, of those issue aren't deal breakers. Any long hair in the house? The Henry quick brushbar wraps hair readily and will need regular cleaning. It's bagged which is good, no filters to clean. You should look at the pet model though if you want extra tools. More budget cordless models are not sufficient as someone's only cleaner, especially not with carpets and pets.

Flat_Direction1452 • 3 months ago

First a not on self empty systems. They are sort of a gimmick. Firstly, they usually can do a basic empty of the container but they are not effective at cleaning the internal filters of the stick vac, that still has to be done really regularly yourself. And many self empty systems are themselves bagless, which means you have an additional 2 or 3 filters to clean. Bringing the total maintainence burden up to 2 dust containers, 2 mesh screens, and up to 5 or 6 filters you have to clean every couple weeks yourself! In other words, they're often more trouble than they are worth. Secondly, no cordless vac is going to match the suction and durability of a corded vac. With that in mind, and if you're good with it lasting about 5ish years, here's what I'd look at. Models from LG, including their own self empty model which at least uses bags, so there's nothing to clean on the station. Dyson have a pretty poor reputation for reliability now, but if you can tolerate very poor customer support, models like the v11 are still decent. V8 is a good more budget end choice. Miele duoflex or triflex models are great choices too, better quality than the others I think with good performance, but pricy and with fairly small bin capacity. Avoid no-name or bizzarely named models on Amazon, avoid bissell, hoover, dirt devil, shark, tineco, etc.

The airstorm, while good, is no better than a miele or sebo. I wouldn't pay the premium. Mieles and sebos are also sealed to trap dust. They are also more modern in design and easier to use (they have cord rewind while the air storm does not). There's nothing really bespoke about the airstorm. Underneath the top shell, the power nozzle is the same as ones avaliable for Miele models. The hose and other tools are generic off-the-shelf supplies etc. While it would probably last you a long time and do a good job, you might resent using it. I'd strongly suggest you try one in person before choosing, and frankly I'd save money and go with a nicer to use miele/sebo.

Search on youtube Vacuum Wars if you live in NA. Those are good honest reviews. Otherwise, I'd steer away from Dyson, they work but half the price is brand. Sharks are fine but feel plastic. Personally recommend Bosch, Miele and Philips vacuums, they are and look sturdy (I own both in Miele and Philips in different homes) and probably all those related to power tools are similar. You should check what is available in NA.

I have a Miele stick vac because I worked there and I love it more than the other stick vacs I got. They are technical and can be temperamental so I always recommend taking it in for servicing. They’re not just $30 vacuums from Kmart. That being said, stick vacs suck for pet hair. That’s just a fact. I’d personally still recommend a Miele bagged vacuum because they’re good and they spend a lot of money making them good.

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.

> 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.

A Henry should be at the top of your list, since it's affordable and manufactured in the UK.  You can use variety of parquet brushes and the horsehair ones would be great for LVP.  A miele or Sebo would be more expensive and would come with extra bells and whistles such as self retracting cords and better ergonomics, storage.  If you need to clean rugs, you can find a turbo attachment.  These options will last you 15+ years.   If you want something cordless, Dyson fluffy rollers are good for quick pickups and won't hurt the flooring.  The V8 absolute package includes a fluffy roller and goes on sale intermittently to be within your budget.  Keep in mind while it might be a space saving option and convenient, cordless stick vacuums usually last a couple of years before big problems arise, hence why the main recommendation is for bagged, plug in vacuums.

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.

Seconding Miele.  It's bloody amazing, it's durable. Will last you decades.  Even my friend who is a professional cleaner says Miele is the very best. She finds Henry hoovers very basic and barely good enough in comparison to a cheapest contemporary Miele. Personally I also worked with many different vacuums too and I despise Dyson. Absolute garbage that's waaaaay too expensive for a pile of crap it is. I own Miele too. If it somehow breaks beyond reasonable repair I'll buy another one.

I had a Miele vacuum for a few years when I lived in an apartment with hardwood and very low-pile carpets. We then began having a problem with dust mite bites, so I decided to switch up to what I thought was just an overhyped machine, a Dyson. I first vacuumed with the Miele then right after that with the Dyson and the Dyson picked up a TON of dust/dirt, etc. (probably mites too) that the Miele didn't get. After I tossed the Miele, we never had issues with mites again, and without changing vacuuming habits or frequency. There may be other, cheaper options than Dyson, but I wanted to throw in this comment about my experience with the Miele vacuum--not impressed.

I see the appeal of a stick. I have a V15. It’s about 3 yrs old. It’s primary role is for in-between cleans, small messes. Touch-ups. But, if I am going to vac our main living areas or the entire house, I can get the job done a lot faster with my Miele. If I am going to deep clean the carpet, I don’t pre-vac with my V15.

\*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).

None of them. Seriously, it has pissed me off for years. More than one Dyson, all weak/poor, just marketing hype. Panasonic. Unreliable. Miele, which I have now but is annoying and frustrating. A terrible design. Second one after the first lasted just over year. Hoover. It was many years ago, but it was weak and useless. Bosch. Worked, was reliable, but designed to slash some parts of your body when you had to take a bag out or change an overly expensive health filter (piece of foam). I just need something that works, is reliable, easy and moves around, especially on stairs.

I'm probably going to get down voted for this but I'd stay away from Riccar. They aren't what they used to be. SEBO and Miele are the ones that get the most love and for good reason. I prefer SEBO above all because they're 100% German made machines, they have a great ecosystem, are easy to self service and parts are readily available. They have great filtration and bags are inexpensive. As for ZeroG, I'd be skeptical of them. They are a small company and every time I look at their website they are always out of stock. They use proprietary bags that are not available anywhere but their own website. What happens if/when they go out of business? Can't get bags for them and the machine is useless. I will say they make a nice looking machine with awesome features and performance. I'd buy one second hand if I could find one but if I paid full price and couldn't get service or parts then I'd be upset.

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.

My Miele was a HUGE disappointment.

I’ve cleaned for almost twenty years and I always go back to Miele. The only complaint I have is I wish all the floor heads had headlights.

If you have a store locally, they are usually great if you buy from them, especially to cleaners. They even let me borrow floor models to test. Try to shop locally because it is worth the connection.

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?

I don't know if I would call Eufy an off-brand Roomba when they are a legitimate brand that generally performs better than a Roomba 😂 Regardless I agree with you. Especially with a kid on the way, the time saved with a robot vacuum will be priceless. I have tile, floorboards and low pile rugs and the robot vacuum has no problems. You can usually set it to go around the house twice if you think it needs it but I find vacuuming once a day does the job. The top brands are Eufy, Dreame and Roborock. If you want a regular vacuum you can't go wrong with a Miele. For a cordless, I would recommend the Shark Pet over a Dyson if you're dealing with a lot of hair.

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.

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.

Yup, these original Dyson's were incredibly reliable for the most part. I think the first one in my family lasted close to 14 years before it finally died.

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.

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.

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.

I had an older one… bought it over 20 years ago. It broke constantly for its 8 year life and I was always gluing together its brittle plastic or ordering parts. Miele that I replaced it with was a huge upgrade.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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 CanadaThe "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

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.

Dyson and Shark are Garbage. If you can afford and/or save up the money for a Miele or Sebo, those are one of the Best vacuums you can buy.

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.

Don't know, in 12 years I've never needed one. I'm guessing not many can say that about a Dyson. I'm lead to believe that if you contact them in Germany they will always get a part for you too for every product they have ever sold.

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.
