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...

Miele Cat & Dog 700

Advantages: it works! sturdy, unbreakable
Disadvantages: bags are quite expensive

...We bought this after reading other reviews on Ciao. We have 7 cats, 3 of which are Persian, and also 3 lovebirds who leak feathers like there's no tomorrow. We had previously exhausted 2 Dysons and an Electrolux . I wasn't too keen to go back to a 'bag' cleaner, but I have no doubts about recommending this one. This hoover works! It deals with all manner of fluff and dirt. The provided on board tools are standard, but great for all jobs. You can use this for the car and narrow staircases with no loss of efficiency. The Turbo head is a boon on carpets, but not so good on flat floors. The 6 settings mean you can use it for dusting picture rails and coving, sucking fur of f your pets favourite armchair, and the curtains that lie touching it, as well as give the carpets a really good go at the same time. If anything you have...

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...

Hoover Cat & Dog - Miele TT5000

Advantages: brilliant
Disadvantages: none

...Over the last year my hoover has gradually been losing its suction, and I was rather annoyed to discover a few weeks ago that it had almost completely stopped sucking. That would explain why I had to go over and over my carpet time and time again before it would look anywhere near clean. I am one of these people that never like to throw things away so I just struggled on with it. But now it has stopped sucking completely I guess I was left with little choice but to throw it away and buy a new one (it was about 5 years old anyway). So with a tear in my eye I took my old hoover down to the dump and set out to buy a new one.. After spending an hour or so hunting around the shops I came across the Miele Cat-Dog TT5000. I guess half of the reason I fell in love with it is the design. It has a very modern design and I just liked the look...

Review of Miele CAT DOG TT5000

Miele Cat & Dog Max

Advantages: Unbreakable, don't worry about the dog chewing the hose or the kids jumping on it!
Disadvantages: You can only buy the bags from Miele or John Lewis

...After having so many vacuum cleaners abused by husbands and pets. Miele Cat & Dog MAX has survived it all. The body is made of 'crash helmet' material and the tube is indestructible! If you don't believe me, get your kids to ride on it and pull it along or your pet to chew it. It is so silent on the low setting my husband can watch TV as I get on with dusting. The high setting will pick up any pet hair, my husband even found the upholsery turbo brush great for his fur-covered suit! Best of all it's so silent your cats will stay asleep as you clean their pet beds. Great if you're an asthme sufferer too! I've had many teary eyed-runny nose moments with vacuum cleaners in the past!...

Review of Miele CAT & DOG

Not just for cat and dog hair

Advantages: Excellent at picking up long human hair
Disadvantages: Expensive replacement parts

...I've had my Miele cat and dog vacuum for almost 4 years and it has consistently outperformed all other vacuum clearners I've ever had. I almost didn't buy it because the sales person said that it's only suitable for pets with short hair - so I was worried that long human hair would cause problems. There was no need for my concern though, it's been wonderful at picking up long hairs (I've had to resort to using the nozzle to pick them up with most vacuums - and a friend used to use sellotape to pick them off the floor before getting a Miele). After almost 4 years the Miele cat and dog vacuum has suffered its' first problem - the vacuum head stopped going round (possibly due to long hair getting tangled in it). I'll admit that the £70 ish replacement wasn't cheap but on balance I'd prefer to get a new vacuum head every 4 years than...

Review of Miele CAT DOG TT5000

My Mate Miele TT5000 (S5260)

Advantages: Great for pet hair removal, enough power to last the whole bag
Disadvantages: Possibly a bit overzealous with the pet hair removal

...Having made do with my old Sanyo cylinder vacuum for long enough, I finally bought a Miele Cat & Dog to see what all the fuss was about. I was not disappointed. It was so much quieter. Only when you turn up the power to 'lift the carpet' strength (and it does) did it sound like my old bone shaker. The 2200 watt motor means that there is enough sucking power for the life of the bag. My old machine lost suction even with a new bag after 10 minutes. Although more expensive, the larger capacity 4.5l bags take at least twice as long to fill, so that they work out about the same, pricewise, as my old vac bags. You can order 2 packs direct from Miele by phone for £15.75 incl p&p. Each pack contains 5 bags and a basic Super Air Clean filter. Bag removal is easy and clean as the bag opening automatically closes when you pull it...

Little Miele

Advantages: Lightweight and powerful
Disadvantages: None that I have found

...I love this vac. Its so light compared to the dyson that I already owned. If fact the dyson is now in consigned to the loft. I have a cat and it picks up the hairs brilliantly. Its lovely to use, its quiet and even the stairs are a doddle to vac with this item. I used to hate vacuuming but not anymore! LOL My teenage son said how much he liked it as well. The bags are removal and its very clean. No mess when you change the bag at all. There is also a dial where you can alter the power of the suction. This is also really useful as some surfaces require different suction power. The onboard tools are also very good. There are various heads to use as well so you dont have to stick to the one. Its very easy to adjust the height of the pipes as well which is really convenient....

Review of Miele Cat+dog+

With a cat and a log burner this vacuum is a God send!

Advantages: Works well on lots of different surfaces
Disadvantages: A bit expensive

...a couple of years they were both well past their best to say the least. Maybe hovering up plaster bits isn?t such a good idea then? Once the major building work was finished and after a bit of discussion and investigation we decided to buy one good vacuum cleaner between us ? mom and I we?re not THAT interested in housework believe me! SO WHICH ONE DID WE GO FOR? Well we looked round places like Curry?s, Comet and in the Argos catalogue and we kept coming back to the Miele. I hadn?t had a cylinder vacuum cleaner before, always preferring the uprights that I grew up with and I hadn?t even heard of Miele! The one we decided on was the Miele Cat and Dog TT 5000 although at the time we had neither a cat nor a dog but this one seemed to be the best for power and performance from what we could see so this was the one we chose. HOW MUCH DID...
