Advantages: Specialist cleaning, well made and reliable Disadvantages: None
Well, my rubbish old vacuum eventually kicked the bucket so it was time for me to rush out and buy (well, add to my credit card) my beautiful new Miele vacuum having heard rave reviews about them from friends.
I checked the which guide and other review sites and found that they were rated very highly which confirmed my choice of make and that just left the model to choose. I decided on the S5281 as it seemed a good, powerful, all-rounder. Then came the hunt to find the best price or deal, having not spent any money for while since having a baby I thought that a purchase of nearly £200 online would guarantee me some good discount, cashback or loyalty points.
I found the vacuum for between £195 and £200 in many places and also found it in Argos for £175 - same model number but a slightly different name. I was a bit suspicious so ...

Advantages: Very Quiet, Efficient, Economical, Drying Options to Suit All Loads, Timer Delay Disadvantages: More expensive to buy initially - but worth every penny ! Slightly more creases than other brands .
update the software as and when Miele invent new things or improve anything so it will remain up to date in future.
It was easy to use and set up the first time. The instructions that came with it were very comprehensive and easy to understand.
The free 5 year guarantee offer is worth £206. However, you must register with Miele within 30 days of purchase using a special downloadable form from their website to get this.
I can honestly say that I am over the moon with this product and I can't recommend it highly enough. I know it is a higher initial expense but it is worth every penny. ...

Advantages: excellent suction, variable power settings, quiet, light, easy to clean Disadvantages: purchase price is steep
I really don't rate Dyson hoovers at all having owned two previously and suffering the stress and expense that came with continually changing the filters and constant overheating of the motor. They are not cheap and for the price I kept paying I decided it was time to spend just a fraction more and purchased a Miele S5280 for £180. The main reason I opted for the Miele over a Numatic Henry was because my parents have used Miele hoovers now for years and couldn't recommend one more highly.
Designed as more of a drag around hoover instead of the normal upright the entire unit is considerably lighter than most Dyson or Hoover products and has the ability to both adjust the suction power thus reducing the amount of noise produced by the motor so that housework can be done late in the vening and early in the morning without disturbing ...
