I got a riccar 30d after having had a Miele upright for many years. Every time I use it I wish I had the old one back. Haven’t had prolux before so I guess maybe this isn’t helpful but next time I’ll be looking at Sebo. Unless Miele gets back into uprights.
Riccar makes the best uprights with a huge selection. R40/r30 great for carpets and hardfloor, long hose, superior filtration to sebo.
R27 great for hardfloor and very good on carpet. Long hose, again superior filtration to sebo.
I’d go to a flooring store and see what their recommendations are. I have a Riccar Tandem Air that will deep clean your carpet. If you use the wrong vacuum you can and will void your warranty, it’s a crappy industry secret
Miele is an EU brand, and their vacuums are designed for smaller square foot living spaces. They pack up nice, the cord rolls up, etc. I personally believe that they are not as popular in the US because of this.
Dyson is a trap, they are riding on brand name alone now. If you have a Dyson from 12 years ago, great, it's probably really good. But the new ones are lacking QC.
Shark is disposable. They even say that they are in the business of making vacuums, not repairing vacuums.
For our money, we bought a Riccar and I highly doubt anything out there is as powerful as the Tandem Air.
