Miele Classic C1 Turbo Team Bagged Canister Vacuum, Tech Blue - Portable, Household

This brand is great. The quality of the product is very good, solid motor which performs and does the job as expected. It’s working for over a year and no issues whatsoever. All adapters have been designed so the use of this vacuum machine is very flexible.

Bought this for my wife after her 20 yr old Hoover finally died. She loved that old vac and her only complaint was its weight. I read many online reviews and decided on this Miele Classic C1 Turbo Team Bagged Canister Vacuum. Almost right away she complained about the tremendous suction and how on carpet it was very hard to move because it sucked itself to the carpet. The suction adjustment didnt seem to help much and I was ready to send it back, but she said maybe it would get better. Well, here we are 4 months in and she complains about it every time she uses it. youd think for such high suction it could suck up pet hair? But again, it doesnt. I went to Amazon to see if it was too late to return and I dont see an option at this point, so I guess live and learn. Meaning if you dont like something from the start, dont count on it getting any better.

I started out 16 years ago with a Dyson . Then another Dyson -which neither had the longevity like a Miele. I wasnt prepared to pay hundreds of dollars for a Miele so I have been through 2 crappy Hoovers recently until now. I started at the lower end of the Miele canisters and I am not disappointed. I love my Vaccuum! I got a great deal on Amazon!! I researched the heck out of the models. this Turbo classic c1 does the job well. I was also told by a reputable Vaccuum store to make sure my Miele was made in Germany not China. that was important info to pass along. I hope my review helps. I also have a very furry house so I would say the turbo c1 or the animal canister that has electro floorhead.

Definitely not a Dyson (in terms of solidly built) but it works fine, has good suction and is small and easy to use. It’s very lightweight so I find myself having to slow down when I use it otherwise it will flip over. Negatives would be that the cord isn’t very long and it’s a bit cumbersome to pull out, and it has bags that need replacing. Overall it seems to be a reliable unit with decent suction. I just don’t know how long it will last with average use.

Light weight! Wheels move great! Suction is unbelievable and I used the couch brush for a hard to remove pet hair recliner I have and it worked very well. Definitely worth the money. Not sure if I like the additional brush holder on the top I’ll see how they stay as I use it.

Good suction, best we’ve seen on a canister. Follows well on hard floors, brush for hard floors is nice - wide and gets up close to the wall - BUT the turbo head is surprisingly really very hard to push on low pile carpet, requires much force (two hands and lower suction) to move it on low pile carpet. The manual and various online videos give no clue of that issue at all. Power level dial seems to have no impact, especially the ‘Ear’ setting for “energy saving” supposedly quiet mode, is not any different in noise level. Came with only one dust bag. Seems a $400 vacuum should come with a HEPA bag, not give you a low end bag out the gate, forcing you to buy an aftermarket HEPA bag. Every new vacuum I’ve bought or shopped for in the last 20 years came with a HEPA bag. Why would the consumer NOT want a HEPA bag? Not good for carpet, excellent for bare floors.

This model has a beater bar, which works wonderfully for the two rooms that have carpet. The rest of the house is wood floors. I knew it would do a wonderful job on the wood floors. Im especially pleased with the beater bar attachment. You wont go wrong getting this vacuum cleaner!

I love this company. Their products are beautiful, well constructed and German…they just make sense. I’m going to be honest here. If you look at the Miele line, all of the first models are suction only. Meaning…there’s no electrical component engaging the telescopic wand or turbo brush. It’s all suction. You need to pay close attention and use a considerable effort keeping the suction at the exact level you need. You can turn a nob, release some in a switch near the handle, or park it for a bit as you get ready to get your octopus suction ready for the next surface. It’s all good if you are young…living in a condo with minimal square footage…and want the German approach to cleaning. You want an electrically driven brush head…period. Unless you live in a marble palace. It’s worth the extra $200-300, no matter what line you take on. The suction is the same. You just want and need some help. If you have crossed over the $400 mark, what’s another $350 or so…get what you want and need. Otherwise, get a mega Kenmore and budget 2-3 in the lifetime of a properly cared-for Miele. I made the mistake and went by budget. Got to the corporate website and look at what you want and need. The filters can be installed and purchased for any model. Get an electric brush and parquet shovel head…and the hand brush for sure. Look at the cost of these things individually. It just makes sense. The bags and filters are superb. Cloth bags. I feel like I’m back in the day. When things were built to last!

Our old canister vacuum bit the dust. I researched for the best replacement and decided to buy the Miele Classic C1 Turbo canister vacuum. It weighed about half of what our old vacuum did. It tracks well. When you pull on it, it follows right behind you. I cant say that about our old one. The suction is super. We have hardwood floors throughout of home. The vacuum picks up cat hair and dust like it was nothing. I have carried it up the steps to our second floor and it was easy. The attachments are easy to connect and disconnect. This is one impressive vacuum.

After my Kenmore vacuum cleaner literally melted down, I read a bunch of reviews in order to decide on a replacement. The Mieles were all well rated so I decided to try the canister vacuum cleaner lower on their price range. No disappointment: this vacuum cleaner is light, easy to move around, surprisingly quiet, and has a vacuum ability way beyond my old Kenmore. It is really nice to be able to write a positive review for something and, last note which folks may want to know: this vacuum cleaner is built in Germany.
