This Miele is one of the best vacuums I've ever used. 😍 It's so lightweight for a cannister vac.
Thank you for putting this Miele Buyer's Guide out because it's definitely confusing trying to chose the correct one for my flooring! 😃
Now I’m confused, what if you got a big house and all types of flooring? Ton of tiles, ton of hardwood, ton of carpets?
I’m looking at the c3 lineup but what do I buy?
I ended up buying a C3 powerline that had the universal attachment, but to make hard floor vacuuming faster and easier I also got the hardfloor twister. So I first do area rugs and then change to the twister and it’s really good!
I've fallen down the rabbit hole of vacuums, so this Miele guide has come right on time for when I buy one this week!
Small feedback though, there's a really weird cut in the C1 explanation that skips over a bunch of the models, so it might be good to reupload if you still have the footage!
When speaking about the C2 lineup, I believe you neglected to give the name of the second one that you mentioned and that most people will be buying. I believe it’s the c2 compact electro but I’m not sure.
This just made me more confused, you skipped over some of the C1s and kept saying "this machine" without explaining which machine you meant
I love how you breakdown your reviews through your technical perspective of being a technician. I always feel like technicians are always gonna give you the whole truth about a product so it’s nice to see that. I’ve seen two of your videos so far and it seems you really stand behind Miele unless it’s a central vac and this brand seems like a Buy It For Life type of purchase. Thank you!
Looking very forward to the comparison video with Sebo. Trying to compare what appears to be the better filtration, appearance, brand recognition and accessories for non-carpeted areas on the Miele to the better build quality, reliability, ease of maintenance, warranty, cost of ownership and carpet power head on the Sebo is a tricky balancing act.
only video that explained the difference between classic c1 and compact c1. Thank you!
The tier lists and the simple graph showing the best vacuum for each use is intuitive. Thank you for providing your expertise. I will be purchasing a vacuum based on your recommendation.
I have a 2 Miele house. The u1 is up stairs for the fully carpeted bedrooms and a c1 cat and dog for the main floor. My c1 does get around the large main floor because it’s open concept, I only switch the plugs twice. Great video 👍
I may have a newer one of the C1 and that’s why my cord is longer, almost 30inches now. My machine says MADE IN GERMANY , it was $300. In March 2021.
Thank you for this extensive video. I want to buy my mom a Miele vaccume and it's such a confusing process. Your video is excellent and has helped me in making a decision to choose the right model for her. Thank you
I’m looking forward to your future brand lineup guides.
My favorite C3 is the Marin as it’s dressy in its navy blue case and I like the sleekness of its powerhead. However I’ve had so many problems with sockets and plugs on power nozzle canisters over the years that I now prefer buying straight suction canisters and adding a turbo nozzle for daily use on my rugs and having an upright on hand for twice weekly deep cleaning. I can assure myself of years of trouble free service this way.
I wish that Miele didn’t obfuscate the C1 and C2 designations in their lineup in the US market. It’s so confusing. I love my Pure Suction which they’ve designated a C1 but is really a C2. I’ve added the turbo nozzle and Sub20 articulated dusting brush and the machine is so versatile and makes for quick time cleaning my first floor.
I love your Eames chair.
Love my Mieles , have 2. Have C2- Electro, and The H1 stick Vac, which I use with the powerhead from the C2. The best of both worlds. Have 1000 sq feet of carpet. Was an Electrolux Man till Areus stepped in. The Mieles are a far superior machine, in my opinion. Love your videos. Keep them up!
Vac from Ma.. Boooston!
Thanks a lot, you really know your vacuums. I appreciate all the work you put into the video!!!
I’m still loving my UniQ Miele Canister... only had one “challenge” with LED Vacuum Head (service shop owner drove out to my house, how’s that for service!!!). I’m vertically challenged, and spiders love the ceiling corners... I ordered (non-Miele) “All Parts Etc"..extension [3 sections]...needed an adapter (1¼ to 1⅜), project pending... spiders beware? Other than that, Miele is my wingman, I treat it nicely, it performs SUPER. All the metallic colors match, Miele, LG, ... must be “in color” for Europe?
Your video seems to skip/cut a bunch of content at 5:53, maybe due to a youtube glitch in the video (but other comments say the same thing) - specifically, it doesn't say the name of the white C1 (C1 for hard floor and wall to wall carpet). What model is that?
So from what I can gather, if I want to buy a C3 for example, the cylinder unit itself is pretty much identical across the range, (colour excepted), it is the brush head and filter choice which essentially defines the difference in the model ?
Yes and warranty.
Am I crazy, or does the video skip (over most of the C1 lineup) shortly after the 5:50 mark?
Could you please just tell me which BAGGED model you recommend for a house under 1000 sq ft with medium pile carpet in two rooms and hard flooring in the rest of the house? Do the heads on these machines have moving beater bars? Thank you.
The Miele C1 Cat and dog or C1 Homecare. See your local dealer
Thank you.@@PerformanceReviews
Extremely thorough review. You fooled in a lot of gaps, TY!
I bought the C2 compact since most everything we have is hardwood or linoleum. What a little carpet we have left is going to be replaced sooner or later. We can always rely on our 1960s Kirby to do the carpet.😂
YOU are a champ for doing this video!
Local dealers can offer a better price than on Amazon? How much better?
Typically you get a 5-year warranty instead of a one year warranty some extra accessories in the same or a few $100 less then online.
Wow, that sounds great! Thank you! I will look for a local dealer soon. @@PerformanceReviews 👍
There are tons of youtube videos that have misinformation and you get this right! Great Video that I was looking for a while... thanks. The C2's are made in China. So, the only difference between the C1 Pure Suction and C1 Turbo Team is the nozzle? for about $100 price difference?
So I bought the CX1 Pure thinking I could eventually save up and get an electro head/attachment for my carpeting, but that is NOT the case? *sigh* Thanks for the breakdown. Wish I’d found your video before buying. Is there a cheaper vacuum that does really well with carpet?
Generally you want to stay away from the bagless machines They cost far more to run than the Bagged versions. Yes you need to buy the accessories for your flooring type when you buy the machine.
I have been very satisfied with my Miele vacuum for almost a year. Today the orange tab showed in the window so I checked the installatiion of the new bag I just put into it, checked filters were mounted properly, but it is making a fluttering noise plus the orange guage is still showing every time I turn it on??? Bags have a blue flange with an N on it. Machine is a Complete C3 model. Is there something else I should check?
For my Miele UniQ - super machine, I need great information.
I keep missing what the hard floor and wall to wall carpet option is 😭
I live in apartments but with any luck will be buying a house withing the next 10 years. most homes and apartments in this area are hard floors throughout the space except bedrooms, which are typically wall to wall carpet. I need something that's versatile and something that will grow with me. these things are expensive and if I have to buy a whole new one in 5 years because I moved I'm going to cry lol
Hey, Here in Australia we have 2 models available for the C3 the "Family All-Rounder", and the "Cat and Dog" models. Any idea where the 1st model fits in for the other models, I can't tell if it's a replacement for the Kona, as they have the same colour.
After watching a TON of vids while making my decision, I think it's the Miele Marin for me.
I would ad go to your local dealer and get a C3 HomeCare model with the longer warranty. It's a better value. Thanks for watching.
@@PerformanceReviews Thank you for that recommendation. I really appreciate your insight.
There is a Miele dealer just one town away from me, and I do intend to go there. Again, I thank you for the personal recommendation. 👍
My kids have horrible indoor and outdoor allergies and I need something to help and to replace my Dyson 😢😅
Thank you - lots of good information here - would you say the Miele brilliance would be the best pick for those of us with pets and allergies 🤧🐶looking for best possible filter situation {along with cleaning capabilities}
I’m confused. I have two story house. I’ll carpet upstairs except the bathrooms. Mine or tails, mostly downstairs with some carpet. No big area rugs. I really wanna canister vacuum but now I’m more confused than ever and I’m not sure which one to go with. Is there one that works best for a house like mine or several options that may work best for HEPA filter is a must
I have a two story house, is there an optional extension hose to buy, so I can vacuum the stairs? I believe I’m going to get a C2 for hardwood floors. I really appreciate your videos, brother. Thank you.
No you just need to move the canister up the stairs every flight. You probably would want to buy the extra STB101 for your stair
@@PerformanceReviews Thank You for replying so fast and for the advice. You’re super duper awesome.
SO HELPFUL, thank you!!!
So you think a C3 is better than the Triflex models, they are possible the best hovers on the market back here in the uk and are selling by the bucket loads over in Continental Europe. I currently have a C3 and it’s fantastic but will be upgrading to a Triflex when my C3 eventually dies in 50 years time.
Hi, if you get the C1, can you add the higher-end accessories?
Great job on the informative video, too bad I already made my decision. I have a Sebo X4 Auto (upright) and wanted a canister as I refurbished my W2W carpet floors with wood and area rugs (>2,600 SQFT). I ended up going with a certified dealer on a showroom SEBO D4 model since the Miele models only confused me. You cannot go wrong with either, just get the model + accessories you need.
sebo's are great vacuums I have 2 both are over 20 yrs old
I love just about everything Miele makes, but I really hate how they position themselves in the US market, very similar to Sebo. They charge American customers so much more on average that most of their other markets. One of the exceptions is the HX1. That seems to be expensive wherever you go. I don’t like not supporting my local vacuum stores as their prices aren’t necessarily their fault, but I will almost always just import my German vacs from elsewhere and spend so much less for the same machine, minus maybe the color.
I think you might look at important tariffs ,voltage differences,UL certification &power heads . I really don't complaints all things considered.
@@PerformanceReviews I usually import from Canada, so they are literally the same machines we get with maybe a color difference. Luckily we rarely have to pay import tax on them. It is much cheaper, but again I don’t hold the vacs shops at fault as they have little wiggle room. Sebo and Miele use the “German made” to their advantage whereas a German product, while still valued in Europe, isn’t as strong a selling point as it is here is the US.
@@nicko5945 Where do you normally import from? Most of the sites I've been finding that aren't eBay resellers either won't ship to the US or don't have any shipping info at all.
@@voidwalker3109 vacuum shops in Canada mostly. You can also very easily shop the Canadian, UK, and other amazon sites simply by going to your amazon settings and changing the country. Keep in mind though as a general rule of thumb, only Canadian and a few others vacs will not require a voltage converter transformer to operate correctly. We use 120V at 60Hz. I invested 200$ in a high quality transformer and now I can use vacs from all over the world, which make up a good part of my collection.
@@nicko5945 Many of the Miele machines are now being made in China...
Hi! I have a 2500 square foot home. Hard wood floors and 4 bedrooms with carpeting. I also have a dog and two cats. What series Miele can you recommend for me? I wasn’t aware of the variety, bought a C1, and it barely works on my carpets. Thank you.
dude are you savagegoose?!?!? you sound EXACTLY like him!!
the best guide ever!
Have you already tried the Miele Boost CX1? We liked it!
That was yet launched at the time of filming. But I see no advantage of that over the traditional models in this video.
I watched your video and I decided I liked the c2 blue one that’s good for carpet and floor and good for animals right? I just can’t find it online. Also you said the home edition is good the red one, I found c1 red one home edition and if I have bigger space should I get c2? Thank you for any more info
They are complex indeed, it took me two hours to find the right bags for the new Miele c1 gray ($300). I’m grateful to be able to afford a real German made Miele. However, it may be users fault even though user had manual in her free hand for reference. It drags on my rugs but the settings are also complex, for me. I just used it once and I was upset that rugs don’t seem to work , so far . I found you because I wanted to see reviews about carpet hugging. Thank you for your review. My c1 cord is 29.5 inches long. I have oriental rugs and I have to play with settings. Any suggestions?
I hate to tell you, but your "C-1" is probably made in China… "Engineered in Germany"...
We did buy a bag less for easier retrieval of legos.
Skill issue.
simple..which canister is better than my hepa filter callisto of 2008 with more suction/air flow?
Thanks!
Thanks for the very thourough review. I still can't make up my mind on whether to go with a Miele or Sebo, particularly the E3 or even Felix.. hope to see more Miele/ Sebo comparisons soon
If you can't make up your mind it's time to go to a local dealer and do a test drive.
@@PerformanceReviews I have tried them all at a dealer.. I was just referring to performance, long term reliability and cost of ownership to which I've head pros and cons of each brand 😃
That sort of stuff is pretty much a wash between those.
GUN TO HEAD C1 OR K2 ?
SEMPER FI
GUNNY@@PerformanceReviews
*Interesting*
Also helpfull. Thanks!
You have a fantastic review!!
Great Video! However I have questions: Mind you, I am 65 years old and don't want anything to heavy.
I live in 1500 SF Single Floor House with Plush carpets everywhere except Kitchen and Dining Room.
My Dining room seats 4 Huge Bird Flight cages filled with 30 Birds. (Lots of seeds, Dander & Feathers 24X7).
At the moment, for last 5 years, I have been using ShopVac (6 gallons) on wheels with my Kirby attachments.
It does well getting up the bulk of mess, however, it's not the best, I don't think.
For my carpets, I use the Kirby - that I just love. However, I don't think it really cleans the dander out of carpets. Because after I vacuum, I steam clean, with Hoover, and water is always so dirty and lots of seeds in water.
Any suggestions on which Miele I should get? Or should I look into getting something else?
Thank you for reading. Brigitte in Tulsa Oklahoma USA
I’m tossing between a 1800W vs a 2000W vacuum, does this really make a huge difference in performance? I think most of the bagged ones are max 1800W and although I prefer a 2000W and bag less vacuum I’m now leaning towards a bagged vacuum but I like the grunt therefore I can only get the bagged variety. Am I right? My house is single story, 3 bedrooms with hard floors and some area rugs.
It's not going to make a huge difference.
very informative. question: are the bagless the only ones that have a "hook" or "slit" on two sides to place the wand as a convenience?
All US Miele canisters have parking positions.
WONDER WHY NOBODY TALKS ABOT THAT CX BAGLESS MIELA @@PerformanceReviews
I just need the power head light damn it, need to really see the pet hairs. I want the budget with the light.
Call up your local vacuum store the OEM for Miele Makes a LED light for the EBK360 that will fit it
@@PerformanceReviews thank tou
My wife just bought the white one and it did a great job in her office but her only complaint is the length of the power cord (a little too short) and the height adjustment switch. It is stuck and she can't move it. I don't think she saw anything in the manual about it. Anyone know what might be wrong?
Bring it to your authorized dealer.
Is the California Proposition 65 warning an issue for the Miele C1 and its filters?
Not on the filters. There might be on the actual vacuum but I don't believe so.
Your video just... cuts out the entire c1 lineup. Can you fix it?
Don't buy a C1
C3 Brilliant vs Sebo D4?
Do they make a C1/C2 size machine that has tools on board and HEPA?
Yes
I want HEPA and MAXX SUKK
Yes
Can you use the power nozzles on any of the C1's or C2's even though they don't come with one?
Like the video says No ,not without investing in significant amount of other parts.
@@PerformanceReviews wessel werks company sells a battery pack that powers up the powerhead. BTW do you know a company that sells the soft roller brushes like the dyson for hardfloor? whats the best hardfloor head for the c2 non electric?
I have a central vac system in my house and haven’t bought a vacuum in over a decade. Just here to check out the new tech in the world lol
COSTCO is now carrying miele, do you not recommend?
They carry a specific model for hard floors in area rugs. The machine is sold with no warranty and is considered second hand. For $500 I would just go to your local dealer.
Hi, so why are bagless vacuums lesser machines?
I suggest you go to your local dealer and try them side by side. But you have significantly less dirt capacity before you have to maintenance the machine.
You also get less suction power through a Bagless setup. That restriction means that the motor will last half as long as it would in a bagged set up.
Can you do the same video, but for Sebo?
Like this?
ruclips.net/video/Usz8IAj_qyI/видео.html
@@PerformanceReviews Thank you. I looked up "performance reviews sebo" on RUclips and I didn't see that video at first. By the way, my girlfriend and I moved in together and we kept her Dyson DC28 and I hate that thing. So I'm looking through your videos so I can stop having windmill for brains. lol
Can someone make a cheap Mighty Mite type canister vac that is bagless, pls :(
Why would you want the extra cost and hassle of Bagless?
@@PerformanceReviews I would say the extra cost and hassle comes with bags. If I were to buy a Mighty Mite the annual cost of bags is about the price of the vacuum itself.
You have your ideas backwards from reality. Bags cost less or the same money. Bagged vacuums last longer. There's a reason that commercial vacuums are all bagged.
The C3 is $1300 in USA, around $800 in Canada and only £329.00 in UK. It's the exact same vacuum. Find a company that doesn't use discriminatory pricing practices.
It is not the exact same vacuum at all. Here in the United States we require a electric power nozzle for carpet. This adds the second motor and is not available in the other two countries. Also the shipping price to get it halfway around the world is of course factored in there.
More complicated in german is more scary than more complicated all other languages.
I want to buy a new canister vac do u like Miele,Sebo, another?? I can spend around $1500 . I have hard floors with 2500 sq ft
Go to your local dealer and see what you like. Miele and SEBO makes the best canisters on the US market right now.
@@PerformanceReviews will do thank u . Love your videos
Really wish you spent more time on the bagless ones, and why you're not recommending them. I have a Dyson DC39 that I've had for almost 10 years. It's clearly on it's last legs, and is at the shop to be diagnosed. It still works, I just don't think its getting the carpet as clean as it used to. I've never owned a vacuum that takes bags. Things like this do annoy me. I hate having to buy little things for upkeep. I'm also really hesitant to go the bag route cause we have 4 cats, one poofy one, and I think those bags are going to fill up awful fast. I empty my DC 39 canister every other time I run it, usually once a week. Sooooooo if I get a bagged vacuum am I going to be going thru 1 or 2 bags a month? Just seems like it's gonna get awful expensive awful fast.
Go check them out at your local store. You could expect about 10+ of your dc39 emptys to a bag . Don't expect to be going through during the new vacuum bags. Of course the first time you clean you might fill one a new vacuum will always clean up after an older one.
More on the bags here
ruclips.net/video/VU7A4d1NIjY/видео.html
@@PerformanceReviews thanks for the help! I was born in 1985, and my Mom had a Kirby upright, red bag that I think was a few years older than me. lol that's the last vacuum I've seen with a bag. She went with a Meile when she finally retired that monster, it was so hefty. I definitely intend to talk to the local guy when I hear back about the DC39. Weirdo I know but I feel like I've left a friend behind, lol that DC39 and I have swept up an awful lot of dust bunnies, my hair, and cat hair in 10 years. I told my husband this and he thinks I'm crazy. But I like a clean house!
I want a good vacuum, but dropping $1200+ for a vacuum still sounds nuts to me.
I'd recommend going to your local vacuum store and seeing what they have to offer. There are plenty of options under $1000 as well
I need a carpet and hard floor. I have a cleaning business and I need to have one.
I would highly recommend you take a look at commercial vacuums. Miele does not import any commercial vacuums to the US.
I would take a look at Lindhaus, Karcher, SEBO & Windsor.
@@PerformanceReviews - i dont want commercial grade ones that are heavy etc. i clean offices only. I dont clean anything that more than 2 people is needed.
The commercial grade ones are pretty lightweight again take a look at the brands I suggested go into a store and try them for yourself before passing judgment.
What is the name of the vacuum at 8:20 that you said is the one most people will buy?
A C2 like the description says. There's also links and then description to these machines on Amazon.
@@PerformanceReviews Thanks. It's the "Miele Electro+ Canister Vacuum Marine Blue (Compact C2)" correct?
Yes
🐐🐐🐐

dude is fro real? theres no benefit to a bagless vacuum cleaner? other than not having to spend another $500 a year on bags
Baggless vacuum cleaners don't need no maintenance. In the case of the Miele here there is a $100 that needs to be replaced once a year and every other year there's another $100 filter that needs to be replaced. A typical years worth of bags for their machines run $21-42 a year. So again there's actual benefit to Bagless. The bagged vacuum is less expensive to run.
Why are you so anti-bagless?
Why spend more time and money maintaining a vacuum cleaner?
Baggless vacuums cost more money to maintain and require more maintenance.
This explains why I did not like my bagless one. I think it was a Bissell upright.
Ridiculous to have so many models
