Miele Vacuum Cleaners

I purchased a C3 Miele Vacuum a few months ago and within a short period of time the motor overheated to the point where it warped the case so that the switch wouldn't work to turn the vacuum on. I called support and they told me to take it in for service to fix it. Once the technician examined it he discovered that it would need 6 major parts to repair it including the case and motor. The thought was that Miele would send a new vacuum since this is a major repair. Miele decided to send the parts - which they don't have and are on back order. The vacuum has been in for repair for 4 weeks and it will take at least another 2 weeks to get the parts (not confirmed) and then the technician has to repair it.

I purchased 2 Miele C-3 canister vacuum cleaners (One for upstairs and another for down). I enjoy the powerful suction, but have had issues with the bag holder not grasping the bag and having a huge mess to clean up when the bag chamber is filled with debris. The salesperson stated "would only need to change the bags 4 times per year", that is false. You need to change bags at least 8 times a year or the motor will overheat. The "onboard tools" are like "toy tools" and that is a waste, I never use them and had to spend money on additional tools which I am not that happy with.

Purchased for home use late 2017. Only good quality; it’s quiet. Does not have a power switch on handle. (That was $500.00 more) What difference does that make? Try cleaning something while on a ladder. To shut it off you have to climb down the ladder and press the switch on the body. If something gets sucked in, e.g. corner of a curtain, clothing, etc., try to shut it off quickly. And remember, to have a switch on the handle is an additional $500.00 to an already very expensive vacuum.

Easy to use. Lightweight and cleans perfectly. A bit expensive though. I have a Canister and a stick Miele - love them both. Tried Dyson (too heavy and cumbersome) and many other brands thru the years so I do have experience with vacuums.

After reading and conducting a fair amount of due diligence before purchasing new vacuum cleaners, we purchased Miele upright and canister vacuums. Relative to other brands, the reputation of Miele is "high quality" and "expensive." To date, the vacuums have worked great (home use, only). Recently, our upright model would not turn off when pushing the on/off button on the handle; we could only turn it off by unplugging the unit; we had never encountered this issue with other brands in over 45 years of vacuum ownership/use.

Prior to my last vacuum purchase, I was trying to decide between Dyson and Oreck. Online search results were clear - skip them both and go with Miele. It cost a bit more than I planned to spend, but SO worth it! Miele does an amazing job on both wood floors and carpeted areas. Also very easy to use - body swivels to go around corners and lays flat to reach under beds. All attachments are incorporated into the body, so it's super easy to take care of baseboards and upholstery as you go. I will never own another brand of vacuum.

The best vacuum I've ever brought. Had an Electrolux, Hoover, Bissell, Kenmore canister, Shark with every attachment where my long hair never tangled around the brush and an Oreck. Shark & Bissell are the worse to empty if like me have allergies, made me quite ill. Bissel was light cordless. My Miele I bought canister to keep my new mattress clean and use to do my drapes, dust my furniture and use to dust my leather furniture. It is an accompaniment to use with my upright Oreck. Miele has a powerful motor engineered in Germany with best suction over even my Electrolux canister. I love that it has bags rather than emptying the canisters and the same with my Oreck upright. Bags are the best to use. I recommend Miele canister over any other. Love my Oreck but next upright will be a Miele. You get what you pay for and it is an investment well spent in your health as you clean.

Very reliable. Long lasting. Gifted one to my daughter. Bought from a local vacuum/sewing machine dealer. They recommend this make very highly. Have had this make about 5 plus years. So far no repairs needed.

Miele Vacuums manufacturing is mainly in Germany with parts from other parts of Europe. Not China or elsewhere. It is refreshing to buy something that is not made in China and is of the highest quality. It really works well. It easily transitions from hard surface to carpet or vice versa. I have really enjoyed mine and have not had a single issue with it. Mine is over 6 years old and would highly recommend anyone to get one. It will be your last vacuum cleaner.

Excellent quality and value, very well made and designed. Very powerful and quiet. This Miele vacuum is made in Germany and has excellent build quality. Hepa filters are very easy to use and convenient.
