Miele Classic C1 Junior PowerLine, 1400 watts, Red [Energy Class F]

If you are looking for incredible suction, look no further! I have been a Dyson fan for years. At one point I had 3 Dyson vacuums, two cordless and the ball. Nothing compares to this! It’s small compact , lightweight, easy to use and leaves nothing behind. Can’t recommend enough. The one and only slightly downside is the noise level but the power and outcome definitely outweigh it.

Of course our vacuum died after the changes in the regulations to vacuums. We also didn't have a lot of money to spend, but wanted to get a holdover to last a few years until we bought something "nicer". After some research, we decided that this entry level Miele should be fine even though it had no pet fur attachments.I cannot say how pleasantly surprised I was. This is a very powerful vacuum. It has rejuvenated our carpets and rugs, and I often run it on a lower setting than the recommended one. Initially, I was wary of buying a vacuum with bags and filters as they are usually a pain to keep in the house. I've always had bagless vacuums as an adult, but the past few months have given me the idea that emptying the canister and cleaning the filters actually was a lot worse for my allergies than I thought. I knew I had some sensitivities, but this winter I've had no "head colds" or sore throats. The bags last a few months (depending on now much and often you vacuum) and are easily ordered through Amazon. It is an additional expense, but not that much considering the extra labour and (if you're like me) suffering.One drawback is that the attachments on this model are very basic. The little dusting tool is useless and the bristles are way too rough to use on some things. The metal tube doesn't telescope which is a shame. The floor tool is decent, if very basic, and the foot operated control is nice and smooth. If cord length is an issue for you, this one doesn't have a long one, but it will reach through a couple of rooms in most houses.Instead of replacing this in a year or two and either handing it off to someone or selling it, we plan to keep it a while. We may even buy the nicer attachments for it. It really is a high quality machine for the price, and provided it continues to perform well and Miele keeps their standards high, I will stick with this brand.Pros:Very strong suctionAdjustable powerGood valueDisposable bags and filters (a former con for me, but this machine converted me)Feels well designed and sturdyThe best vacuum I've used at this price pointCons:Very basic attachmentsWeird storage configuration (you are meant to loop the hose around the machine, take the wand apart...oh, you'll see it if you buy it and probably not bother with it)On top of the basic attachments, the dusting tool is beyond basic to awful

Not as powerful as the old model. But does a job and better on wood and short pile.

Thank you. Great machine.

Bought this six months ago, was very pleased with it. That is until the motor packed up yesterday. Will be on to Miele......used it once a week in my small flat, so I cannot believe it should pack up like it has!

This is a good vacuum cleaner and works well all around our home, both on hard floors and carpeted areas. It has a medium-sized bag capacity of 3.1 litres, and at 5.91 kg it’s an average weight for a cylinder vacuum cleaner. I concur with another review that I saw that the nozzle is powerful - though very noisy when in use. The replacement bags and corresponding dust filters are expensive. Another point to add is to take care with the hatch that covers the dust bag area.The hinge can fail, with repeated use (this has happened to me once before) - so please take care when opening and closing this hatch. The Miele has quite a short reach of 8.45 metres, so you might find you need to change plug sockets reasonably often. The non-telescopic tube can be irritating. Having the extra tools, astride and on the outside is convenient in terms of placing them back in place when you've finished with them - without having to switch the vacuum cleaner off first and open the lid.If you are of a more delicate nature, this “Vacuum cleaner” is lightweight and easily manoeuvrable, however to be a sure, it’s for you, best to check this unit out at a local store to see if it suits you. At the end of the day this is a good cleaner worthy of four stars.

I always use Miele vacuum cleaners but they are built like a tank and are heavy but last forever.. This lightweight jobbie is perfect for stairs and bedrooms also packing above its weight and at a good price.

Excellent suction powe
