Dynamic U1 Salsa (S7280 Salsa)

I currently have an upright (salsa and before that jazz) and have also had a canister (C2). But dragging it around was far too obnoxious. I’ve been using a shark for 2 years now as I said and I have yet to have to pull it apart. The Miele I just replaced the belt housing and mount on within the last month or 2 and I’ve already had to pull it apart again to yank hair out. So no I won’t have the same issue. Maybe other issues but not the same one. The way belt on the shark works is different. And like I said didn’t have to do it with my ProTeam or Sebo either. The way Miele has the belt an inch into the roll isn’t conducive to long hair I guess. It sucks it into the housing then wraps around the roller gear and eventually the motor gear as well. ***whoops replied from a different device hence the different name***

I had the Miele Salsa upright. The brush motor went out after a decade of cat litter heavy work. Sadly, they stopped making it, but I am still going to get a refurbished motor. Absolutely amazing vacuum.

This is a pretty good vacuum.And you'll always be able to find the bags, just like with all the other older vacuum cleaners that are no longer made. Great deal for a great vacuum with a little care.It should be the last one.You need to buy.

The Henry is going to be more durable and reliable, although Miele aren’t bad in that front, they have become more fragile recently. Spare parts and bags are more expensive. In the UK, a Henry like this can be had from £100, which makes the argument for it far easier. Miele tend to be far more complicated to repair than a Henry or Sebo which are both derived from the commercial sector.

Not compared to anything Numatic or Sebo which are by their design, serviceable. I can only speak from experience but the S7 upright Miele did a few years ago was the most complicated vacuum I have ever worked on, including modern dysons. Horribly complex.

It depends on if these features are good and work for your cleaning needs. I see that you have a corded Miele vacuum and are looking for something that is easier to use. I think you are headed in the right direction in shopping for a stick vacuum. When I look for a vacuum cleaner, I look for sturdiness and lots of useful features. My Tineco S7 Pro has been an impressive workhorse that has just as much strength, flexibility, and function as my Miele S7 upright. This Tineco model you’re looking at has basic attachments, reusable filters, a removable battery a good powerhead with a chevron shaped brush roll, a (laser green) head light, (I think it has) power adjustment and an easy empty canister. You want power adjustment as you don’t want the same strength of power to be used to clean bare floors as you do a small rug - controlling air flow is key. The need for a headlight just makes sure your bare floors are clean when you pass. I’ve personally seen and heard rave reviews about the usefulness of a green laser light over standard incandescent or LED headlight systems. I believe the Dyson stick vacs had that green headlight feature first- very useful indeed. My Tineco charger has a separate slot for the second battery to be charged. I don’t see that ability on this particular charging dock nevertheless, I recommend you get a second battery as even in a small home, they run out fast. I have been rotating my second battery out when I clean my entire house. It is nice to have no loss of cleaning time for charging. The chevron brush roll is key to not spreading dirt. An old school design that a lot of modern vacuum manufacturers avoid. I cannot tell of this particular model has the same pop-out brush roll feature mine has but I hope whatever this model offers that it is easily removable for cleaning purposes. All brush rolls collect hair have must be cleaned and maintained. I recently read a post about someone’s awful experience with Tineco. I hope that person gets their justice with Tineco but like everything in life, milage varies. I have been impressed with the power and usefulness of modern stick vacuums. They are nothing like what has been offered in decades past. As long as you are not one to beat up a vacuum and neglect necessary vacuum maintenance, it will last. I have seen people beat up all kinds of machines from cheap throwaways to high end. Hope this helps.

I love my Miele s7580.

Miele. Love mine.

Love my Miele.

I have that vacuum in red. It’s my favorite. It’s versatile and one of the best vacuums in my opinion; however, that one looks beat to hell and I wouldn’t buy it. It looks like it needs a new hose, and Miele parts can be pricey. That hose has to work well for the entire machine operate properly. Just curious, what are they asking? What kind of floors do you have? Mostly carpet, mostly hard floor, a mix?
