"We got in a bad car accident a while back and my baby was in a Nuna Rava at the time of the accident. ... Even with that, she walked away with a teeny scratch from the seatbelt and nothing else. ... I immediately went home and ordered two more so we’d have one for each of our cars."
"I've used them for 1500 miles of multi-day hiking with no issues!"
"I've used a Big Agnes Blacktail Hotel for years now. ... I've grown up in the bush and it's by far the best tent I've ever used. ... I've never seen or used a better tent."

"you can't even order replacement parts unless it's from a third party."
"Filters are ¥400 and have an rfid encrypted chip so you MUST buy one from Xiaomi. ... They also 'activate' once swapped out so when the xiaomi app says you have 0% life and need to change that's the end of the discussion. you can't just hose it down and dry it off. ... Same BS as most ink cartridge manufacturers. ... The pocket looters even ask if you want to automate purchases for filters in the future."
"They haven't even had the vacuum in stock on their website for years so you'd have to buy from a third party"

"If you're cleaning a lot of hardwood floors, I would not do Sebo uprights as they don't have a brushroll shutoff"
"It looks like the Dart only has the brush roll, which might impact the linoleum over time? ... Yes I’d lean towards the Felix if that’s in your budget for sure!"
"I find the G4 merely adequate for most hard floors. ... If I had some delicate floors, I’d invest in a second, different machine to focus on those."

"The out of warranty repair cost was 75% of what a new one would cost so I chucked it."
"The Dyson battery was internal so you can't swap out a battery if it dies on you."
"replacing a vacuum that died (Dyson) ... I will have probably bought 2-3 dysons in that time period"

I bought my Miele in 2004 and it's still running strong. Full disclosure: my husband broke the power head 10 years ago. I can't remember what he did except that it was a goofus move. I was really annoyed but I replaced the power head, kept the husband, and the vacuum has been running well ever since.
r/BuyItForLife • Vacuum that won't conk out on me after 3 years ->I went sebo (E3) over miele due to: cheaper, better warranty, cheaper parts and repair, and sebo does one thing (make vacuums)... suprised theres no sebo dealer nearby, I recommend trying to fine one even if its a drive. Think of SEBO like volkswagen, and MIELE like BMW. the variety of responses here are proof positive of TRY BEFORE BUY I tried miele, sebo uprights, sebo felix, sebo canister. disliked the felix immediately upon trying, despite my mind leaning felix during the online research phase! I'm a total convert from upright to canister (or at least sebos version of it) but you need to assess if you can handle the quirks of a canister. downsides of a canister: 1) one more thing to keep track of (I got used to it fast, I just kick it around or pull it by the hose) 2) harder to store (pending a good solution to this...) 3) heavier to take up the stairs (but easier to actually vacuum said stairs) Upsides of the canister: 1) lighter IN HAND (the weight of the vacuum is supported by the floor, not your hand, in use). 2) cord rewind (wrapping up cords after a upright vacuum session sucks, the SEBO you just unplug and step on the retract button. 3) much easier to do top to bottom detail vacuuming (fans, vents, dusting, cabinets, walls, pictures, shelves, dusting), wand/hose mode reaches many more high places and without tipping over the upright. 4) easier to maneuver the power head. yes you gotta maneuver the canister into position, but once you do you can get that powerhead into alot more difficult to reach places (under beds, couches, rugs, tables). Easier to maneuver the canister than moving furniture. I'm over cordless due to wall to wall carpet, the time limit (good for quick pickups only), and I really dislike the cleaning/washing/emptying of bagless machines (which most cordless are). The whole reason I vacuum is to GET RID of dust, dirt and nastiness... why do I wanna go touching and breathing it later... in concentrated form, bathing in a big ol dust cloud?!
r/VacuumCleaners • Explain to me why you like a canister vac? And give me advice on what to get... ->Henry has always been the best hoover in my eyes and I've used many over the years. However I admit that they are cumbersome and they do deliberately throw themselves over in a tantrum, grab the corners of walls to avoid their workload and talk shit about you behind your back all while having a very smug look on their stupid red faces. That being said I would also reccomend miele. Also very good quality but much less personality.
r/AskUK • Which hoover would you choose and why? ->Dyson are an utter rip off. I sympathise completely with you. Used to own one and I felt I’d have to do two rounds of the house to get it clean. Go for a Miele, they are cheaper and significantly better.
r/AskIreland • What vacuum cleaners do people recommend? ->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!! ->I’ve sold Miele for over 25 years. I’ve never seen that before. Why don’t you just let them give you another hose
r/VacuumCleaners • Return Advice Needed ->Miele - with a bag, cord, etc. No complaints! We had a Shark, really didn’t like it (though we still have a Shark handvac).
r/AskUK • Hoovers. What are you using and why? ->Neither, I’d get a Miele. Really didn’t like our Shark, haven’t ever had a Henry.
r/AskUK • Which hoover would you choose and why? ->The Miele electrobrush is substandard and the pieces break off, making it unusable. To replace even a tiny wheel is $55 for a single piece.
r/VacuumCleaners • Anyone not like their Miele? ->Don't buy the Miele! There little pieces break and to replace a single screw or tiny wheel is $55 each. I have a Sebo (German vacuum as well), which has never broken down piece by piece like the Miele. Highway robbery! The Miele vacuums are crap.
r/VacuumCleaners • Anyone not like their Miele? ->Honestly if you’re willing to spend up to $600, it’s really worth the extra $250-300 to get a Miele or a Sebo. I spent way more that that in vacuums I hated (shark, Dyson, Hoover, etc) and finally broke down and got a Sebo canister. I wish I’d done it sooner. Even the ‘higher end’ shark and Dyson are child’s play compared to the good vacuums.
r/VacuumCleaners • Reviews Are So Mixed ->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? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
