Complete C3 Cat & Dog Bagged Canister Vacuum Cleaner for Pet Owners, Lotus White - 10014520

I got my new Miele four hours ago. I just spent three and half of those hours vacuuming almost every surface in our house. This thing is magic. Background: Husband and I both work long hours, we've got two Maine Coons, and we're remodeling an old house. On top of that, I struggle with both ADD and depression, so I have two speeds - either EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE or constantly sleeping - and cleaning is not always a priority. Needless to say, between cat hair and sawdust, our house is pretty gross most of the time. When I bought our Dyson Animal five years ago, it was the most expensive thing I'd ever purchased. I did a ton of research and read all the reviews. Immediately out of the box, I hated it - it has a tendency to blow dust AWAY from the nozzle - but I figured I'd give it some time and maybe I'd come around. Lately it's had zero suction despite my best attempts at cleaning it, and when my sister said she loved her Miele, I figured I'd check it out. This was not an easy purchase. This thing costs more than my current vehicle. It is worth every penny. Where my Dyson was an apathetic beast at best, the Miele came out of the box fully assembled, licked its lips, and proceeded to devour debris in corners I didn't know this house had. My couch actually changed color. (Apparently it was covered in drywall dust.) The Miele sucked sawdust out from between the joints in the wood flooring. It ate half a rug before I figured out how to adjust the height on the power rotor, and once I had the setting corrected, sucked an OLD STAIN OUT OF THE RUG. I had no idea that was possible. Cat hair disappears into its predatory maw. The last time our floors were this clean, the contractors were putting swedish finish on them. The Miele is QUIET. Our apartment days are behind us, so noise isn't so much an issue, but holy hell is this nice. This vacuum powers up like something out of Star Trek, with a gradual quiet hum. Even on its highest setting, it is quieter than our microwave. I could hear my cell phone vibrate on the coffee table while I was vacuuming the living room. Husband came in and actually asked, "Is it on?" PROS: Everything. It's quiet. It's LIGHT. I think my laptop is heavier, but despite being easy to haul up the stairs, the Miele doesn't feel fragile; after years of growling every time the Dyson's telescoping handle collapsed in on itself, the Miele feels incredibly sturdy. It cleans like a dream - with two longhair cats, there were enough dust bunnies under the couch to knit a sweater, and the Miele didn't even blink, just slurped them down like nothing. It's incredibly agile - it follows you around like an attentive dog, ready for the next task. I love the onboard tools - no more scratching your head trying to remember where you last saw the crevice attachment. The adjustable suction is amazing - I was able to vacuum the heavy-duty door mat, and then turn around, adjust the suction, and vacuum the curtains without pulling them off the wall. The range of motion on the tools is also incredible - I was able to vacuum around the couch legs and under tables without having do do any painful contortions. The air in the house SMELLS cleaner, and even after three hours of vacuuming, my throat doesn't hurt like it usually does. When it comes time to empty the bag, I can just lift it out and throw it away - I won't have to deal with dumping a canister of aerosolized drywall and cat litter into the garbage can, blowing back in my face no matter which way the wind is blowing. (That alone is worth a thousand dollars, let me tell you.) CONS: Costs about as much as your firstborn, and possibly also your leg. Overall: This is literally the most expensive thing I have ever purchased after the house itself, and oh my god it's worth it. As a remodeler, I understand the value in having the right tool for the job, and this vacuum just earned its keep. Four hours in, and I regret nothing. This is going to make cleaning SO MUCH EASIER and you can't put a price on that. UPDATE 11/26/2019 It's been four years now and I still love this vacuum. It's been a study little workhorse. Sometimes I am terrible and too lazy to get the shopvac, so I feed construction debris to the Miele. Clogged nozzle aside, it doesn't even blink. The motor runs as quietly and efficiently as the day it arrived. It has a few scuffs and battle scars, but none of the plastic pieces are broken. I regularly change the bag and the filters, and purchased a new brush attachment because because the bristles had gotten too worn on the old one, but otherwise baby is always good to go. 100/10.

So far, very pleased with the vacuum. I researched for quite some time before making this purchase. I have the C3 Cat and Dog in Lotus White. The machine feels well made overall, some plastic areas could be made a bit more robust. The suction power of the vacuum is very strong much more so than the Shark Stratos that I was using. The SEB-228 power head works very well. If it shuts off on you while vacuuming, that means your setting is too low. Raise it one notch up and it will continue to work. We have two miniature Aussies that shed a lot. This vacuum worked very well on the rugs and removed most if not all the hair. Keep in mind that the first time you use this vacuum on a rug that you will possibly see a line of hair where your stroke ends. That is because it is cleaning deeper and pulling out all the old embedded hair. Just make a couple extra passes and it will clean it up well. The Parquet tool is great on hard surfaces. Very maneuverable to get into nook and crannies. I prefer the SEB 228 on carpeted stairs vs the mini turbo brush that comes with it. It just gets the job done quicker and more thoroughly, but is slightly awkward due to its size. However, it does a great job. The sound of this vacuum is very quiet. I’ve never owned a vacuum this quiet. Almost deceiving because the power of the vacuum is so strong. Maneuverability is easy. It’s a little more difficult on carpet but very manageable. Additionally, hair is easy to pull off the roller if it’s stuck in there. There is also a groove to fit scissors to cut off any stuck hair. Attachments are good and the bags and filters keep everything clean and smelling good. Great vacuum overall. I recommend it!

Great machine, only concern is how sensitive the cord rewind button is. If the hose gently touches it, the cord rips out of the outlet and quickly rewinds. If you have the cord in your hand and are ready for this action, it is no problem but when it happens unexpectedly it is a bit dangerous. That being said, I love this vacuum, it is simply the best I've ever used and the chore of vacuuming now seems effortless. When i'm done not only is my house nice and clean but the dust bunnies from the pets don't resurface a few hours later as this vacuum vents out the top, not onto the floor. So all those dust bunnies get sucked up, not blown up all over into the air.

Producto incompleto o reempacado. No incluye SEB228 Powerhead como describe la publicación.

Although some what expensive, well worth it. Having pets (3 Cats), very happy with it performance and function in keeping the house clean.

I love this powerful little vacuum. It moves easily, it’s so light that stairs are not painful anymore. It keeps the animal smells out of the air. Great machine

Good all around vacuum.
