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

I wanted a Miele for so long and kept putting off buying one. After my old Mighty Mite died I decided to just go for it and bought this one. I have never loved a vacuum before, but I love this one. Its really lightweight and easy to carry around- its easy to change the attachments without having to bend over and I love that it has a retractable cord. My house is mostly hardwood with some low pile area rugs and it does a great job on both surfaces.

This is definitely the best vacuum for hard floors that Ive ever purchased. Since we put in LVP throughout most of our house, I found that the fabulous upright that we had (Riccar) just didnt do as good a job on the hard floors as it did on carpeting, even with the separately purchased floor attachment. However, finding the right Miele canister vacuum for my needs and budget was very time-consuming. I found that it was very difficult to tell if the reviews on Amazon matched a specific model or not. The Miele website was not much better, especially when I tried to determine what attachments went with what model. I wanted to know how effective the turbo brush was and if it was included in the particular models I was considering. What ultimately saved the day was being able to go in person to an appliance store that sold Miele vacuums. Unfortunately, the closest store to me did not happen to have any of the vacuums in stock, but the salesperson was able to print out a comparison sheet of the Classic C1 Turbo Team Powerline (SBANO) and Compact C1 Turbo Team Powerline (SCAE0), both of which appeared to be the best options for hard floors. Since there was about a $100 difference between them, I wanted to see if the extra cost was worth it for the Compact C1. Both appeared to be made in Germany, something that many of the Amazon reviews argued was important. It turns out that their specifications are almost identical. The Compact has a Stainless steel telescopic tube and the Classic has a Comfort compact telescopic tube, but its hard to see the difference. They both have the same operating radius (29 feet) and the same cord length of 18 feet. They take different filter bags, but the Classics bad volume is 4.8 qts. vs 3.7 for the Compact. The only other difference I could tell was that the nominal power consumption for the Classic is 1000 W while the Compacts is 1100 W. Since these differences seemed to favor the Classic, I decided to save $100 and purchase that. The Turbo brush was still a mystery, but both models offered that as well as a Parquet brush. I knew from the Riccar what a Parquet brush could do, and I figured that it would be at least adequate if the Turbo brush wasnt any good. It turns out that the Turbo brush is one of the best features of the vacuum. It makes vacuuming hard floors easier and super fast. I still use the tube by itself for the edges, but rely on the Turbo brush, especially for large areas. As I mentioned in the review title, I have a heavily shedding dog, a Newfoundland, and his hair has yet to cause problems with the Turbo brush. The brush is pretty loud when set at the highest suction setting, and it will not work on my kitchen stress relief mats except on the lowest suction setting. I do a good job vacuuming our bathroom mat with the parquet attachment and the middle to low setting without the mat getting sucked up. One of the reviews mentioned their vacuum bag filled up very fast, but Ive had the Miele Classic for almost three months and the bag has yet to fill up, even with my dog, In conclusion, you dont have to fork out extra money to get a great hard floor vacuum in the Classic C1 Turbo Team PowerLine, and youll probably agree that its definitely worth how much you do spend.

Great suction and is well built, but the power cord could be longer.

I hate vacuum cleaners. Noisy, bulky, and generally a chore to use. BUT NOT THIS VACUUM! This is a vacuum I can love using. Quiet, light, maneuverable, great suction, easy to use under furniture, works on tile floors as well as area rugs, and does a great job on our one wall-to-wall carpet. I cant say enough about the Miele Classic C1 Turbo Team Bagged Canister Vacuum. I will never purchase a vacuum from any other company. Highly recommend this vacuum!!!

Great vacuum, light, quiet and powerful. However after a year the Turbo Brush Floorhead stopped working. I took it apart and cleaned everything but no luck. Hard to clean a carpet without it.

We are a retired couple, no pets, little foot traffic. The original bag was in place when it arrived. After vacuuming our small, one story home every other week for less than 2 months, I noticed the red light was on. I checked the bag compartment and saw bag was indeed full with dust around the outside of white seal and fine light layer of dust in compartment. The seal itself seemed to be “ floppy”. I turned vacuum on and saw when the bag expanded the floppiess went away slightly but a very tight seal did not seem to be in place. I also noticed a new “odor” before I saw the red light. I am ordering new bags to see what happens. Otherwise happy with vacuum, but purchased, as everyone does, for the seal. That is priority #1.

Purchased this for my mom as she wanted another Meile. It arrived quickly. Personally Im not impressed. I have 2 Dysons, the one from Christmas 2005, best present ever, an upright that is still going strong and one from 2016 thats the cordless model. The Meile doesnt have the quality of the Dyson design wise and doesnt have the suction power of either of the 2 I own. I would not recommend this sweeper.

I tried the vacuum out as soon as I figured out how to assemble the pieces. The suction power is great and did a wonderful job with the cat hair. Next time I will try the furniture attachment. At first I cleaned the hardwoods with the rug nozzle but when I switched to the hardhood floor accessory, it worked much better. I feel the electric cord could be about 5 feet longer as my old upright had, but I will have to adjust to it. I also found it a bit clumsy to be pulling around the cannister. I feel I will have many dependable years with this vacuum and am pleased I bought it.

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.

Good quality, very easy to operate, good suction
