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

The Miele Classic C1 Turbo is simply the best vacuum Ive ever owned... and I have used a LOT of different vacuums over the years. It is extremely powerful with great suction; it is easy to operate; it is compact in design; it uses bags (a good thing!) to avoid airborne dust expulsion; it is simple to use, with excellent attachments, and it is easy to clean and maintain. I LOVE this vacuum cleaner and sincerely thank Miele for designing and making it! 5 Stars in every category.

El color está muy padre y es muy fácil de usar.

Purchased because of Miele reputation and Id just installed expensive carpet. Carpet company said my Dyson would be too rough on the carpet. This is just my impression, someone else may feel different. It felt flimsy and it was much louder than Id anticipated. Learned later it didnt have the sound insulation. This machine has a LOT of suction. Seemed like the turbo brush was too rough on the carpet. Lowered the suction, still thought so. Bottom line it didnt seems to be harming the carpet. The bottom of the turbo brush is very smooth and no hard edges. I just expected more of a luxury feel...and this machine didnt have that. Although, it could suck the paint off a wall.

Our air-powered brush stopped turning, YouTubed ST305 diassembly and I found out that theres a flaw that requires you to take it apart and if you dont you can burn out / melt the side bearings with hair getting in there EVEN IF you clean the brush head everytime with a knife. Bad design. Or maybe its normal. Clearly well built, works decently, high priced, bags... you can try to skimp but eh. Iono. Used for 2.5 years and is very powerful. Just downside is it cant really do thick carpet that well, have to pull back only, cant push forward with the brush head since it isnt truly motor powered - only powered by air moving through a ... think water/windmill style front. Expensive but seems good in the ways youd expect it to be performance. Removed 2 star for poor maintenance/design in what I mentioned.

Not pleased with this unit. The rollers dont do a good job of picking up pet fur from carpeting. When it does pick it up, it tightly winds around the roller brush and has to be cut out. It does best only with pulling it backwards, not forwards. The amount of drag trying to push the roller brush unit forward will break your back. Sorry I bought it. Save your money and buy something that does actually work.....like a Shark Rotator Lift-Away Pro with DuoClean. I bought that one after this Miele failed me and it is a beast. No hair or fur stays on the roller brush with that Shark. You can buy it right off the shelf at WalMart. This Miele Classic C1 Turbo is a piece of junk and you too will be sorry. I dont understand the good ratings. Must be shills.

Awesome vacuum and works extremely well for cleaning interior of vehicle with user friendly attachments

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!

This little vacuum was thoughtfully designed. Since I only have one small area rug with the rest tile, I needed something that would work well for hard surface floor. Previous reviewers mentioned that it was difficult to push on carpet floors because the suction was so strong and I agree. This vacuum is light weight, easy to move around, has a holding place on the vacuum to hook in the cleaning head for storage. The motor vents thru the top of the vacuum as opposed to the back so it doesnt blow the dirt around. My only complaint is that I wish the cord was longer. The rewind is strong and works well. I have no stairs so cant comment on that. I definitely recommend this vacuum for hard floor use.

My wife convinced me that one: we could only get a canister vacuum (not upright), and two: it had to be Miele. After using uprights my whole life I now realize they are only really useful for wall-to-wall carpets. If you want to vacuum your hardwood floors and throw rugs, you need a highly maneuverable suction head that can fit all the way under the couch, into hard to reach corners, the tops of window sills, etc. Uprights, while often have detachable hoses, just dont have the reach or the agility that makes vacuuming easy. And this Miele has been a delight - quiet but remarkably strong, the gentle start feature sounds silly but is surprisingly calming. Love it!
