Thanks so much for this video. After watching this and your review of the C3 cat & dog model, I finally understand the difference between the two models. I appreciate that you show the vacuum and the attachments from all angles and that you point out pros and cons of everything. Very informative.
I have that same set up except in red. It’s 7 years strong! It never ceases to amaze me how much crap it pulls out of the carpet! It’s perfect on stairs too. It will sit right on the stair
12:00 Just bought a Miele C1 and am so happy with it! I had a Miele years ago and then when I needed to replace I went to lower priced vacuums and was not happy with any of them....especially since we have pets. Finally decided enough is enough and came back to Miele....in my opinion, best vacuum out there! Using the attachments are so easy to put on and take off when vacuuming!
I just purchased this little bug (looks like a beetle) today at my local vacuum shop. I was feeling some buyers remorse on the way home. Well let me tell you, I am not feeling remorseful anymore. This vacuum is WORTH IT. I’ve already practically vacuumed my whole house and dusted with this thing. My house is spotless. Not like my Dyson that was so dirty and got dust all over my trash cans when I emptied it. Awww if feels nice to be in a clean home! I should note the version I have says “Made in Germany” on the box.
My bulky Dyson has been relegated to only work the litter box area. I figure it's best not to over tax the Miele's filters or waste the vac bags with all the litter my cat knocks out; while the Miele handles the rest of the house like a champ.
I got this vac last year, but I got the Homecare model. So 10 yr warranty and a HEPA filter. My husband hates how much we spent but he doesn't know about vacuums 😅 now it's $999 so I tell him we got a deal
I watched the wrong RUclips videos when I purchased my Shark Duofin POS vacuum. I've only used it for a year and the red light of death came on and I'm realizing how frustrating it is to work on (proprietary screws, etc). Now I'm on the market for a new vacuum and this one seems to be perfect for my small 3 bedroom home with two cats. Excellent video! I appreciate you.
The Miele C1 was the best investment I've made for household cleaning, next to my Black and Decker steam mop. The mop is as easy as vacuuming now, without the expense of those disposable mop pads -- just wring out the included fabric pads in sink after cleaning and toss in washing machine. Plus I've never had a vac that sweeps and dusts as well as the Miele. About $500 all in for the mop and vac = money very well spent.
1) I wish you had shown how to to put the mini turbo brush. It doesn’t fit well. 2) what is the use of the pigtail? I have been using the vacuum with the pigtail unplugged. 3) why is the filter installed in the machine different from the charcoal filter? 4) I think what you showed at 5:42 is the airflow indicator and not the full bag indicator. Correct me if I am wrong. Thank you so much. Great review. It was helpful.
Use of the pigtail is to supply power to the power brush The mini turbo is meant to be a tight fit, it ensures that you don’t make it fall off That IS the bag indicator (he is a vacuum tech, trust him on that)
My Flamingo dies 3 days ago after 20 yrs. Bought one of these from the same shop. Even better than the Flamingo. A turbo brush that actually works very well. The power head will pull you along. A little getting used to the soft start button.
Unfortunately closest place is a city away to get this in person so i have to order online. Still excited i been looking at canisters for last week and after looking up between kenmoore and miele i decided the miele and hopefully last me good while. Our house only has three rooms that still use carpet so this should do
So, you think this model is good for high pile carpet? Something about that "pigtail" makes me feel uneasy. Why would the motor not be able to supply power to the brush head without that? Something about that just seems questionable to me.
@PerformanceReviews oh okay. Looks like the Classic C1 Cat & Dog is the cheapest one with an electric hose. Thinking of getting it for my sister's housewarming gift. That or a Sebo K3.
Looks like a great vacuum but I KNOW I'm gonna have it blow up somehow. Henry usually deals with drywall better. Also are you gonna do a review on the Hoover hushtone 13in?
There are two different C1 variants. The Compact which is made in the China plant that Miele owns. And the Classic like this which is still made in Germany.
@PerformanceReviews I just bought my first Miele vacuum, a Classic C1 Cat & Dog. I've only had it for a week and the powerbrush continuously turns itself off an on while pushing it forward and backwards. I have wall to wall medium pile carpet. I started with a height level of 3 and reduced suction, the issue continued at each height up to 5. Is this normal? A nice addition to your video's could be a lengthy vacuuming session of the powerhead being used on wall to wall carpet.
I just bought mine. It's too quiet. Nothing like the one in the video. It's unnaturally quiet. It throws me off. Is mine breaking down or what? It sucks up great...just no sound. Weird.
Found you by needing to research vacuums needed for the high end soft fiber carpet we just installed. It's unbelievable how many vacuums are on the market. We are seniors and don't need one to last 25 years. Have you heard of this soft carpet Vs vacuum problem? Mohawk carpet has a list but 75% are discontinued models. This brand is on the list . No clue what a dis cord server is sorry

Best review on the Miele C1 Cat & Dog. This guy knows all the ins and outs of this vacuum cleaner, very detailed, and a great help!!!!
Thanks for watching!
thank you for this video. we hadn't plugged in that turbo cord until we saw your video

You purchased "old stock" if it really states "Made in Germany". The unit is currently made in China.
My bulky Dyson has been relegated to only work the litter box area. I figure it's best not to over tax the Miele's filters or waste the vac bags with all the litter my cat knocks out; while the Miele handles the rest of the house like a champ.
This machine is still made in Germany today.
Oh my stars! Are you serious???? Made in bloody China?????@@1953childstar
The c1 classic is still made in Germany

Great machines and Miele has an extensive catalog of useful attachments that make canisters great tools.
I think it's truly fascinating to see how Miele has recycled designs, yet Miele has improved it and improved the features. Fantastic job!
And made them in China !!!!
False, this is German made.

This vs Sebo Dart for mainly carpet flooring?

Still excited i been looking at canisters for last week and after looking up between kenmoore and miele i decided the miele and hopefully last me good while. Our house only has three rooms that still use carpet so this should do
so when you remove the pad filter and install the charcoal does that mean that no more pad filter?
This is correct. You should take a look at my Miele All about bags and filter video
So, you think this model is good for high pile carpet?
Something about that "pigtail" makes me feel uneasy. Why would the motor not be able to supply power to the brush head without that? Something about that just seems questionable to me.
thanks for this! way more helpful than the instructions miele included.
Would that charcoal filter work on the Miele Classic C1 Pure Suction?
Yeah it works on all the Miele c1 classics
Great vacuum for pet owners. If you have Maine Coons the STB101 turbo brush is a fur-eating monster!
Great to hear! I had big Maine Coon cats growing up.
I have the Pure Suction C1 Classic. Is it possible to upgrade to an electric hose?
Nope ,you need to buy a electric model if you want that.
@PerformanceReviews oh okay. Looks like the Classic C1 Cat & Dog is the cheapest one with an electric hose. Thinking of getting it for my sister's housewarming gift. That or a Sebo K3.
Is this vacuum a sealed system? I would assume so since you can upgrade it to hepa and also since it's a cat and dog machine.
Yes it's sealed system. As you can see in my repair video on the s2000
Just received ours today. The brush head keeps shutting off and I haven’t figured out why.
Adjust the height adjustment properly
Thank you. Great overview!
Looks like a great vacuum but I KNOW I'm gonna have it blow up somehow. Henry usually deals with drywall better.
Also are you gonna do a review on the Hoover hushtone 13in?
If someone sends me one for review
@@bradenabbott2707 they're like 150$ less then a Miele here lmao
@@bread-gz3rl yeah the cheapest Miele with a floor tool costs $1k
@@bread-gz3rl and?
Yes I have this vacuum
Great content, as always. I have the newer version of the telescopic wand, but it keeps slipping. Any advice you can give me? Thanks
Have the dealer replace it.
@@PerformanceReviews UK based here. We don’t necessarily have dealers. I managed to pry it apart, spray it with disc brake cleaner and now it’s fine!
Does anyone who has this model also have a bad back ? Is this model easy to push on wall to wall carpet for older people?
Yes this machine is great for that but you really should go to your local dealer and try it for yourself
Trying to understand the carpet height adjustment. Is 1 lowest or highest setting?
1 is the lowest setting. 5 is the highest setting.
Thanks for this video! I would just be sitting here with a bunch of unconnected pieces otherwise. 😅
This machine looks like the Miele's we have here in the UK that are Made in China
It is made in China….
Nope, only the Compact C1 models are. These Classic C1 models are still made in Germany.
In the EU these are the Chinese made models. We don't have a powerhead model of these though.
It is made in China…. Sneaky !!!!

Do you need to remove the black piece above the filter?

I do not like the white colour at all. I would have preferred a dark grey.

Any Miele with a SEB 228 nozzle we'll get the job done for your carpet.
Good machine if you’re on a budget
The Homecare model costs $999. What kind of budget?
Or enjoy Chinese made vacuum cleaners !!!
@@bradenabbott2707 The "Homecare" is I believe, a "C-3" which is German made. The others are Chinese made...
Only the Compact C1 models are made in China "with" German components, this is a Classic C1 version.
How is this any different than riccar prima
The parts are significantly better made than Riccar.
Riccar? Isn't that a company that was ruined after the buyout? My Riccar overheats after a few minutes vacuuming the car. Brand new.
Very Nice!
Just got mine!!! So excited!!
