Best vacuum on the market.
Our floor surfaces range from wood, carpet onto tiles, cleaning all of them with this machine is effortless. My cordless vacuum was always running out of power after a few moments, I refused to replace the battery again. After purchasing my Miele vacuum, the suction is fantastic, the machine has 4 wheels, preventing it from tipping over, it's also easier to maneuver while in use. After it's used, it folds up and stands on its rear. All the extras are tucked away on the main body. The power cord is long enough to reach the rooms where need...Read more
ed. It's more than a vacuum for me, it's a lifesaver AND it's bagless. I purchased a quality Miele vacuum cleaner, a significant improvement. I am questioning why I've made do with the cordless one for 2 years.Purchased in September 2021 at Harvey Norman for $549.00.

Disappointing, want my old vacuum back.
My partner threw out our old 2013 electrolux. As i inadvertently used it to clean up old asbestos containg floor tiles.
The miele does have good suction. But not as good as the old electrolux cat&dog which had the electric driven head. I would find myself having to remove the vac turbo head to clean between floorboard gaps, which still underperformed against our later unit. This miele is heavy and unless on hard floors is a handfull to pull around even on our new, short pile wool carpet. It does okay on hard floors, but find myself walking over...Read more

Love how the vacuum works but not the turbo head
This vacuum works like a dream however after each clean I need to cut the hair from the brushes which becomes clogged very easily. I would not have bought it if I had known this.

Worst vacuum I’ve ever bought
Worst vacuum I have ever owned. A back breaker. You have to bend down to adjust suction as no release on hand piece. The floor tool clogs constantly- bend over pick it up unclog-hopeless on carpet- brush tool for edges - struggle to get it to extend and then bristles not long enough and particularly bad as can’t be put on extension so guess what- bend over again! One vacuum and my back and wrists are aching. Absolutely the worst vacuum I have ever used. It’s also heavy and very hard to push the head causing it to run into my furniture as you ha...Read more
ve to push too hard.ill have to try to off load it as didn’t use it in the 1st 30 days so can’t return it. I’ll go and buy another brand with a power head and all the features I need . This one is not fit for purposePurchased in February 2021 for $599.00.

Excellent suction. A bit heavy.
I have 3 large rugs and bamboo flooring exposed through most of the house. The bare floor attachment is perfect; very gentle with good brushes and plenty of suction which can be adjusted for all attachments. There could be a bit too strong a suction on rugs, but the strength can be adjusted.
Smaller tools are attached to the cleaner until required so there is no searching for the right tool. The dust container is easy to empty, and the amount of fine dust it collects is amazing.The machine has four wheels which make it glide along and it cann...Read more

Very powerful vacuum cleaner
I bought this vacuum cleaner three months ago and so far I am very satisfied with its performance. It's powerful suction sucks up the dust and dog hair very effectively over tiled floor and heavy rugs. It's easy to operate. The dust bin and filter can be emptied and washed easily after use. Also, this model comes with a number of attachments including a turbo brush. If I have to be very nitpicking, I will have liked it to be a couple of kilos lighter.

Bagless
Bought this because was both Miele and bagless and it is a lovely machine. Take the point about the dusting brush being a bit short but I don’t dust with my vacuum so doesn’t worry me. I agree that that the cord is a bit short and I don’t find emptying the canister all that predictable (I’ve had to write how in marker to remind me each time), but easy once I remember. Haven’t had a Dyson but I’ve used one and I think this is probably better.

Excellent machine
Best vacuum I have ever purchased. Love the variable suction control. It is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre around. Compact storage is a huge plus. Power head is incredibly powerful, I frequently have to adjust suction as it is so powerful. Easily picks up pet hair. The canister is large, easy to empty.

Amazing Vacuum cleaner!
This is definitely my favourite vacuum cleaner, picks up so much dust, definitely more than a Dyson, which I previously owned. I use it on tiles and carpet. Couldn’t be happier!

Amazing
I’ve had both Dyson and Miele vacuums and would never get another Dyson.
The vacuum has picked up so much dust the Dyson misses. It’s quite and glides effortlessly without getting caught on anything.
Best vacuum ever.
The onlyannoyimg thing is the cord is not very long but that’s the only downside.
Miele vacuums are a quality vacuum, reliable and efficient it will last you for years. In that time you will probably spend the same amount on replacing other vacuums, this vacuum is worth every cent.

Good suction but disappointing unexpected features
Vacuum glides and sucks well. Unfortunately the 'comfort' handle is anything but. The built in dust brush means that you can't dust above 1m without hoiking the cleaner up onto a chair. Impossible to dust cornices. The handle is heavy and cumbersome.

Hi Kylie, thank you for your feedback. We will pass this feedback onto the Miele team.
Hi Anna, is it possible to get a different hose and handle? if you don't hold the 'comfort' handle in the way specified you are at risk of electric shock. Unfortunately it is impossible to maneuver the dusting brush and hold it in the correct way.

ments off are great, just press a button, two main big brushes, one just swivels all the time gets into the corners, I use that for the tiles, and floating floor would be great if u have that, I know in my own heart, I have a vaccum life, hey how many cheap ones have we brought, (I am cringing here), no more. Great for Christmas, just the one present, cos that is all the money we have, But I know I haven't regretted buying it, and it has so many small crevis tools, and they are stacked so cleverly, like a rocket ship, everything fits in sublimely And true vaccuming is not so tedious like every week, No more, more like once a month1 comment

Very disappointed
I have always had Miele appliances and unfortunately I am very disappointed with the Miele Blizzard. Whilst the cleaning capability is ok, it certainly doesn't have as much power as a bagged Miele.
The hose and cable are much shorter than other Miele's, the bottom of the dust container doesn't seal 100% and leaks a small amount of dust, the small wheels struggle to make it over the cable and is quite heavy and clunky.
In my opinion, there are a number of design flaws that really need to be ironed out - my handle has already been replaced under warranty and I have ended up selling on ebay and replacing with a regular bagged Miele C3 - which is 1000% better than the Blizzard.
I would not recommend the Blizzard.

Fantastic cleaner
I love this vacuum cleaner. I had a Dyson for many years but in comparison the suction is much better and I like that I can change the strength of the suction. While not light it is easily manoverable. Fabulous cleaner love it
I have found no problems and emptying is so easy

Absolutely incredible, I love it!
My concern with this vacuum is that it is heavy to get in and out of the cupboard but it is absolutely effortless to use. My last Miele which I also loved did a good job but it was hard work where as this is a breeze. No more purchasing bags and the hair that it picked up had to be seen to be believed. I am 100% thrilled!

Hi people,remember I said I have or had a cleaner, well no more, she couldn't make it this week, so last night I used my brand new Meile, u know it is like one of those high end cars that we can never afford, it purrs, and when u turn it on press the switch, wow it is so quiet, and most of all it picks up heaps of muck, and the cord is so much longer, I used the crevic tools, great, but no, read this, the vaccum is for carpet and parquet floor, I have carpet and mostly tiles, so I used the other vaccum head on the tiles, wow it really is amazin...Read more
g,, it swivels, like all the fun of the fair ground ride, consequently it goes into corners, hey u don't really need the crevice tool. And off course changing heads, my past vaccums shivers pulling and tugging, but not not Meile, there is a button on top, hey presto and the head comes loose, how easy was that, and emptying the dirt bin, which is large, great, but it is so easy to take out and put back. Remember I said before I used it, it is expensive, true, but once u have used it, u know u have a winner, and because the Meile is so neat and easy, u won't need to pay for a cleaner, Howzat Remember it is the one that does the Parquet floors, I assume they mean floating, wooden floor, but rest assured it does tiles so so good1 comment

Pleased with this one.
We bought this to replace a previous Miele. Very pleased with the way it cleans our floors, which are mostly carpeted. Vac is heavy but moves easily. The vac is "bagless" and easy to empty, but will require emptying most times we use it as the dust container has a “max” mark at half way up the container. Also was easy to remove the shower cap inadvertently vacuumed up!! The dustbrush on the handle has been criticised by reviewers, so we kept the one from the old vac and it fits, for when we need it for high up. One warning about the dust b...Read more
rush…it is quite hard to release to move it into position. Ask the store salespeople to demonstrate it for you or you will have to do as we did….return to the store, and ask for help. Once mastered it is very handy. Lastly, the noise during operation is low pitched and not too loud.1 comment

Better than Dyson!!
I bought this 4 months ago and I was dead set on getting Dyson because my siblings have it. I ended up going with Miele because I have hard wood floors and was worried the Dyson would scratch them.
I am so unbelievably happy with my vacuum. My house is relatively clean but every time I vacuum it picks up so much dust particles and I feel like the air is cleaner.
Best thing I’ve ever bought. It also cleans itself too and it’s so easy to use. Will stick to Miele in future!

Has anyone else had trouble with the cord not retracting? I have had my Miele CX 1 for less than a year and I am over the cord never retracting properly. I have to pull it out, press the button again over and over! Grrr. This should happen with a vacuum cleaner that cost a lot and less than a year old. Am I alone in this problem?

Can someone say if the design goal of being able to empty the vacuum without the clouds of dust actually works?
Also has anyone had problems with dust leaking out into the body behind the main dust cannister?
Thanks
Jonathan.

These vacum cleaners are rubbish and spare parts come from another supplier.
Not Miele.
Would never buy anything of this brand!!

Hi Joel, thanks but I don't have a CX1. I'm trying to decide if the CX1 is right for me. I'm a long time bagless user having a Dyson DC02 that's over 15 years old and still going strong, but I've become more concerned about dust exposure which is definitely a part of the Dyson experience.
I've seen some reviews where people complain about dust leaks - which is something that seems to be a failure in relation to HEPA status, as well as the design goals of minimizing/removing exposure to fine dust.
Jonathan.
