Are Miele vacuums worth the money? Which one is best? Read our reviews to find out. We look at features, warranty, pros & cons, consumer ratings, specifications, and much more. Miele started by making cream separators in the late 1800’s. Headquarters are in Germany and the company has grown to have an annual turnover in excess of 3 billion dollars. Production of Miele vacuums began in the 1920’s and today Miele vacuum cleaners are very well-known and the brand is synonymous with quality. They make stick vacs, uprights and canisters which frequently garner high consumer ratings. They are known for being powerful yet quiet and good for allergy sufferers and pet owners. They also feature prominently in our top vacuum lists. Miele Complete C2 Limited Edition Review Monday, 12 September 2016 Avg. consumer rating = 93/100 The Miele Complete C2 Limited Edition canister vacuum is a favorite with owners.  It gets very good ratings and comments and is a great fit for homes with bare floors, low pile carpet and some area rugs. 

The machine is not such a good fit for those with deeper pile carpet.  It is a quiet, well built vacuum with variable suction and an auto-rewind power cord.  However genuine Miele bags are not cheap and some folks feel that the power cord is too short resulting in the need to frequently plug and unplug the vacuum when moving from one area to another. Miele Complete C3 Cat & Dog Canister Vacuumkambrook jaguar vacuum cleaner price Saturday, 09 April 2016jet force vacuum cleaner 2400w Avg. consumer rating = 94/100 The Miele Complete C3 Cat & Dog Canister Vacuum Cleaner gets excellent ratings and reviews from owners.  karcher vacuum cleaner cv 38/2It is also an attractive, well-built machine. 

Consumers praise the unit’s quiet operation, ability to pick up pet hair, strong suction and robust filtration features.  It also comes with separate cleaner heads for carpet and bare floors, and the carpet tool is motorized so it is capable on low, medium and high pile carpet.  This is an expensive vacuum cleaner however and at most retail outlets it will set you back over $900. Miele Alize Canister Vacuum Cleaner Sunday, 28 September 2014 Avg. consumer rating = 96/100 The Alize is a fantastic canister vacuum but it is important to understand what you are buying before you purchase.  Miele makes a wide range of canister vacuums each with a host of different features and attachments.  The Alize is a great machine for cleaning smooth surfaces like hardwood floors, tile or vinyl.  It is also effective on flat weave rugs and low pile carpet.  However – with its existing set of attachments – it may not be the best choice for homes with lots of carpet (especially medium to deep pile carpet).

Miele Delphi Canister Vacuum Saturday, 05 April 2014 Avg. consumer rating = 94/100 The Miele S2121 Delphi canister vacuum is designed for bare floors and low-to-medium pile carpet.  It has recently been renamed to the "Miele Classic C1 Delphi Canister Vacuum Cleaner".  It is now blue in color but otherwise the same machine. It has variable suction as well as a host of other features. In addition, high consumer ratings suggest that it is indeed well-liked by its owners. The vacuum is also quiet, lightweight and not too large. However, it does not come with a specialized bare floor tool (like it’s more expensive brother, the Titan) and some owners feel this is a drawback. Miele Quartz Canister Vacuum Sunday, 03 November 2013 Avg. consumer rating = 92/100 Let’'s cut to the chase.  The Miele S6270 Quartz is a great vacuum IF you have lots of bare floors to clean and a few area rugs or a small amount of low pile carpet.  It is not the best machine for a home or apartment with lots of carpet - especially medium to high pile carpet. 

The floor tool has no brushbar which limits its performance on deeper carpet.  Aside from this the Quartz is lightweight, very quiet and powerful. It also has effective filtration, variable suction and is well built. Miele S7280 Jazz Upright Vacuum Cleaner Monday, 04 February 2013 Avg. consumer rating = 85/100 Designed for 20 years of residential use, the Miele Jazz (recently renamed the Miele Dynamic U1 Jazz) gets very solid ratings from consumers. Like most machines from this German manufacturer the Jazz is expensive, but it does deliver. Powered by a 1200 watt ultra quiet motor, it has very strong suction and does an excellent job cleaning carpet and bare floors. It also includes 3 levels of filtration and the HEPA filter with activated charcoal ensures fresh smelling air free of most allergens. Some consumers find the machine a bit heavy however and consumables like bags and filters are not cheap. Miele Red Velvet Canister Vacuum Monday, 22 October 2012

Avg. consumer rating = 89/100 The Red Velvet (model S6270) is part of Miele'’s latest series of canister vacuum cleaners, the S6 series.  The Red Velvet is rather unique with its soft red velvet finish on the canister surface.  The vacuum is best suited for smooth flooring and low pile carpet as the brushes in the nozzle are air-driven.  It also includes an AirClean filter, several attachments, a stainless steel telescopic wand, suction controls and a 7-year warranty on the motor and vacuum casing.  Consumer ratings, while few, are very good. Miele Quickstep S194 Stick Vacuum Wednesday, 06 June 2012 Avg. consumer rating = 83/100 The Miele Quickstep S194 is Miele’'s latest stick vacuum and while consumer ratings are few, those that are available indicate a respectable level of satisfaction.  Owners praise the Quickstep'’s power, quiet operation and ability to pull up pet hair.  Some do find the vacuum a bit on the heavy side however.  It should also be noted that this stick vacuum is best for hard floors and low pile carpet. 

Like most stick vacs it is not intended for deep pile or plush carpet cleaning. Miele Capri Canister Vacuum Thursday, 16 February 2012 Avg. consumer rating = 94/100 The Miele Capri is the latest addition to the popular S2 series of canister vacuum cleaners.  It is a step up from the more affordable Olympus as it has both carpet and bare floor tools (as opposed to a combination tool) and it gets very good grades from consumers.  Owners praise its powerful suction and also like that it is lightweight and quiet.  However like all of the machines in the S2 series the power cord is a little short. (2016 Update: This is now called the Classic C1 Capri and ratings are still top-notch.) Tuesday, 06 December 2011 Avg. consumer rating = 83/100 The Miele S7580 Bolero is now known as the Dynamic U1 AutoEco (Miele's new name for this machine).  It is one of the Premium Class vacuums in the S7 upright series.  It is powerful, quiet, maneuverable and loaded with features such as suction control, automatic height adjustment and a special HEPA filter that includes activated carbon for odor removal. 

Consumer reviews are few but generally quite good and most owners are pleased with their purchase.  The machine is a little heavy however and, like many Miele vacuum cleaners, it is not cheap. Miele Cat and Dog S7260 Thursday, 08 September 2011 Avg. consumer rating = 95/100 The Miele Cat and Dog S7260 (now known as the Miele Dynamic U1 Cat & Dog) is part of Miele'’s S7 line of upright vacuum cleaners.  The Cat and Dog gets excellent consumer ratings and is loaded with features.  Owners are impressed with the look and feel of the unit with many commenting on the quality fit and finish. It has powerful suction yet still manages to be fairly quiet and is capable on both carpet and bare floors. It is also very effective at pulling up pet hair. The downsides of this machine are its weight and– of course its cost.
