Miele S5281: Don't make a Miele of the housework

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...

Make mine a Miele

Advantages: Small with a powerful motor
Disadvantages: Expensive

...which other models are measured. No, we don't want another Dyson. 5. How much do you want to spend? We didn't want a cheapo model but were determined for it to be cheaper than a Dyson so were looking at around £150. Having set the criteria we now had to choose the right model. A quick read through of my father in laws Which? magazine showed the Miele S4510 coming top of their test and that's usually good enough for me, a quick price search online and I found the model for £160, including next day delivery, from UK Domestic Appliances. In the box~ The Miele was delivered in two boxes; the larger of the two contained the cylinder unit itself, neatly packed in polystyrene. The second, smaller box contains the hose, attachments and paperwork. The instruction manual is clear and concise, but then it is just a vacuum cleaner so it's not...

Miele for me! Microwave M8151

Advantages: Quick Start function/Grill/Variable Power and Grill levels/2 Year Guarantee
Disadvantages: I can't really find any disadvantages.

...at the push of a button if you are in a hurry. I chose it specifically because it also has a grill function. I think it is a good looking appliance. I also notice that it has a free 2 year guarantee, whereas the AEG only offered 1 year. (As it turned out for me, their one year guarantee was worthless, because offering to refund my money, but leaving me with a hole in the wall in a brand new kitchen was no help at all.) As I said in my review title - its Miele for me from now on....

Review of Miele M 8151

My favourite household appliance

Advantages: lots of features, easy to use, A+ energy class
Disadvantages: price

...We bought our Miele softtronic WT2670 washer dryer machine while I was pregnant with my first son. I had difficulties with drying the dark clothes. Half of them became smelly. I felt that kind of smell that you can feel when you leave wet clothes in a bag for 1-2 days. I tried different washing detergent ? conditioner combinations but the majority of the black, blue and green clothes were still smelly. I had no problem with the white or red clothes. So I decided that I need a dryer. As we didn?t have space for it we bought a washer dryer machine. ?????????????????????. Price Are you sitting? You should sit down. When we bought this machine it was very new on the market and its price was 1,550 pounds. By now its price is lower, it?s about 1,000 ? 1,100 pounds. ?????????????????????. Why this machine? It?s a freestanding machine, A...

Miele (not another hoover)

Advantages: reliable,dependale
Disadvantages: bag fills to quickly,

...After buying 3 dysons and all 3 not lasting longer than 4 mths i decided to try a different make. What with having 2 dogs 1 a german shepherd what sheds hair like there is no tomorrow, the other luckily a short haired mongrel, but when she sheds she looses buckets full, plus 2 girls who dont care were they drop there wrappers and rubbish, we decided on the Miele cat and dog hoover. This is a cylinder hoover with a bright red and black casing. It has moveable castors for easy moving, a handle for carrying, The accesories are easily stored within the body, an dusting brush, upholstery nozzle, crevize nozzle. It is powerful with a completely sealed system. It has a great air flow, for every type of carpet or floor surface. They are equipped with speed controls with different speeds, 300,500, 700, 900, 1200, 1600, the 1600 is great...

Miele W1613 Washing Machine

Advantages: Quiet, Water and Energy Saving Features, Easy To Use
Disadvantages: Very Heavy, Expensive to Buy.

Clean up with Miele S 380

Advantages: Quiet running & easy to use
Disadvantages: Not up to tougher cleaning

...on this point.) There is no Hepa filter so allergen suffers might well be happier with a different model of vacuum cleaner. **Miele** Miele is a German manufacturer of domestic appliances and commercial equipment. The company was founded in 1899 by Carl Miele and Reinhard Zinkann and has always been a family-owned, family-run company. Miele products are available in the UK from a wide range of stockists, both in the High St and online. Miele products can also be purchased from their website: www.miele.co.uk **My thoughts and conclusion** All in all I do not really rate this cleaner particularly highly, it does it's job, after a fashion. I have very long, waist length hair which the cleaner does not seem to be able to remove from my carpets satisfactorily, neither can it cope with dog hairs. Perhaps in a household where...

Review of Miele S 380

Miele S712 (pet version)

Advantages: Powerful suction, hygenic and quiet.
Disadvantages: Not widely available.

...After having a Dyson for nearly eight years, we bought this vacuum cleaner. The reason for this? The Dyson proved to be rather fragile and unreliable and had many repairs over it's life, after the bottom part began to crack we decided it was time for a new vacuum cleaner. The actual cleaning performance of the Dyson was not at all that bad, it was just that it was too fragile, unreliable and rather messy to empty. Purchase We went to our local Currys store and had a look at a few machines, the initial plan was to get the cheapest Miele cylinder (Miele S380) and use it exclusively for upstairs and then we would get the new Miele upright for downstairs. We were very close to buying the Miele S380 when the Miele S712 caught my eye; it was not so expensive and it had a turbobrush which is always a bonus. The Miele S380 was 96 pounds...

Fantastic Miele Cat & Dog Hoover !

Advantages: Powerful..Easyand light to use . Worth every penny for the easy housework !
Disadvantages: The Miele hoover bags i think are a little on the expensive side ..

...I have owned my Miele cat & dog hoover now for 3 weeks . I have run my own house now for 30 years and have owned a few hoovers in that time and have cursed and sworn and each and every one of them ! One was way to heavy and bulky to use on the stairs ( upright Hoover ), another could'nt even suck the fluff off the carpet ( vax hoover ) . I have even owned a Dyson , which i paid good money for and it worked brilliantly for the first few months , then it just seemed to lessen in power and eventually it was used for cleaning the car only. I then was reduced to sweeping the carpets with a broom ! Then my daughter bought a Miele cat and dog hoover because she has 5 dogs and cat . I watched with an open mouth and this little light weight red hoover ran across her living room carpet and left a completely clean stripe behind it ! I had to...
