In early summer of 2011 I decided my 10-year old beloved bagged Kenmore Progressive needed to be put out to pasture(RIP). I had replaced all of the filters and had it thoroughly cleaned in effort to keep it a little longer but it still wasn't sucking to my satisfaction.I purchased the Miela in August 2011 after an exhaustive internet search and my own personal testing. I have terrible allergies and routinely vacuum once or twice a week. I looked at and tested various bagged and bagless vacuums that are supposedly HEPA filtered and good for allergy suffers. Brands included Dyson, Bissell, Hoover, Kenmore and Shark. I found out which stores would let me return the vacuum and shopped only those stores. Out of my testing the Shark came closest to meeting my needs but none of them met my expectations. Flimsily built, weird controls(what designer thinks the start switch on the bottom of the handle is a good idea?!) even weirder or no attachments, hard to empty bags. The bagless kind were the worst having to empty the canisters and clean the filters after every use (yuck). I had seen reviews of Miela on various allergy websites and my own doctor recommended one but I balked at the price. After my disappointment with the other brands I went to visit my local Miela dealer. She let me take a floor model home with a new bag and try it over a weekend. I didn't just do a simple vacuum. I thought if I'm really going to consider spending nearly $1000 on a vacuum I'm going give it a thorough test drive. I was pleasantly surprised!
I happened to still have the Shark bagless at home and did a side-by-side test with my old Kenomre (with a new bag), then the Shark (clean filter and empty canister), then the Miela(new bag). As I expected the Shark picked up more than the Kenmore but the Shark failed miserably when I followed it with the the Miela. How do I know it did better since the Miela has a bag that is sealed? Well, I dropped a handful of cat litter on the carpet! First the Kenmore, then the Shark and finally the Miela. The Miela picked up the litter the other two didn't. After the first test I didn't use the Kenmore again. Next test was cat hair on furniture. Score? Shark 0 Miela 2. What about the hard floors? Cat litter test again. Shark 0 Miela 3.
You can read about the various features on the Miela website so I won't waste you time listing them. The Miela is a heavier than any other vacuum I tried but it's easy to steer. I like the twisting motion that allows me to get into tight corners and under furniture. The onboard attachments are convenient and easy to use. I especially like the brush that you can twist into various configurations. You don't find that on other vacuums! You can purchase additional attachments but they don't attach to the vacuum. The on/off and floor/carpet switches are on the handle so easy to use. The headlight is bright and does illuminate fairly well unlike most other vacuums. The biggest thing I've noticed that I think makes the Miela worth a look is how well it cleans. I've noticed that my house is less dusty and my air conditioning and room filters are not as dirty when I change them. There's not a trail of dirt glittering in the sun light streaming through windows. This vacuum picks up stubbon cat hair better than any other vacuum I tested. It seems solid and well built. There's not as much plastic on this one as with others. I expect it to last for many, many years but since I've only had it for 5 months I can't comment on reliability.
HOWEVER, this is an incredibly expensive machine! The only reason I decided to purchase it was because of the side-by-side comparison I did with my old vacuum and the Shark plus the visible HEPA filtration. Most other vacuums say that are HEPA filtered but you can see it with this one. When you turn it on you can see the housing actually seal itself.
If you don't have severe allergies or lots of animals this is likely more money than you want to spend on a vacuum. However, if money is no object and you truly want to have a good vacuum that does what the advertising hype states then look at a Miela.
