Even changing filters and dustbags has been made effortless with clear indicators telling you the optimum time to replace them and self-closing bags preventing any captured dust from escaping. It's very easy to maneuver on this surface, though you might need to open the suction gate slightly if you're having trouble moving it around.

The Miele feels better-built, has a longer overall range, weighs a little less, gives you a wider array of suction power modes, makes less noise, and performs better on carpeted floors. My only gripe would be that the suction is so good it's hard to turn it DOWN enough to vacuum a rug without moving it! I see this as important because in use the vacuum cleaner shoots up quite a powerful exhaust jet in the air and this needs to be clean if you are to breath it in. It also delivers marginally better performance on all surfaces, and it has an easier time with pet hair. Dusting Brush – Handy for a range of jobs, this brush’s high-quality, synthetic bristles unsettle dust and debris for easier vacuuming.Either integrated or on a clip, Miele vacuums come fitted with a selection of additional heads and nozzles for cleaning that adapts to you.

It's also lighter and you can configure it so it's easier to clean surfaces like upholstery or tables. It's more effective in clearing debris on carpeted surfaces, though its strong suction force can cause it to drag around some lighter rugs. Its power rocker switch also gives you a more precise level of control in adjusting suction power compared to the Miele's power level presets. It makes less noise than many other cheaper vacuums, including upright models from more mainstream manufacturers like the Kenmore Intuition Bagged. Along with their selection of interchangeable heads and a height-adjustable suction pole, Miele bagged vacuum cleaners utilise simple, yet innovative features to make cleaning more convenient.

Never experience the awkwardness of visitors noticing the unwanted smells you may have grown accustomed to. The Miele Compact C1 Pure Suction PowerLine is a vacuum cleaner designed to provide efficient cleaning performance.

This compact canister is optimal for use in homes with smooth floors, arearugs and delicate antique or natural fiber carpeting.We tried out the head supplied on a carpeted area of our house and scraping the head along the carpet was hard and impractical, in fact most of the time it stuck to the carpet like a limpet, even on medium settings. This is further reinforced by an independent Youtube video for the C1 compact that clearly states it is for hard floors, yet the advert here shows a misleading photo of it on a carpet. We tested the Classic C1 Pure Suction PowerLine - SBAN0 model, which also happens to be the base model in the lineup.

With large foot-controlled switches for cable rewind and activation/deactivation, there’s no need for tedious stooping. As well as our standard SBD 290 floor head, included is an upholstery nozzle, dusting brush, and crevice tool, all of which attach easily to the Vario Clip on the side of the tube for storage.A high efficiency FJM disposable dust bag traps larger debris while Miele’s Super Air Clean Filtration will cleanse the exhausting air of smaller particles. It easily cleans debris in shallow, medium, and full-depth cracks when using its floorhead, with only a very small amount left behind in very deep crevices. The Classic C1 range has many helpful features and the quality can be seen from the castors with steel axles to the hardwearing hose.
