switched from Rainbow to Miele, October 28, 2013

GiGi –

I have used a Rainbow vacuum for many years. It finally gave out and the canister filled with water and leaked all over my maple hardwood floors. So I went to local vacuum repair shop to get it fixed. After speaking for a long time with a wonderful salesperson, I decided that for my hardwood floors, I was better off getting a non- water vacuum. So, on this salesperson’s recommendation, I purchased the Miele Onyx, and I am so happy that I did. It is just amazing. I was so happy using it this weekend, that I actually strained my wrist from overuse! The furniture looks wonderful. The sofas look new. The floors are so clean – the vacuum picks up everything. I was stunned. I thought the Rainbow vacuum was the best I would ever use, and I was wrong. This vacuum is easy to assemble, lightweight (even with my bad back), maneuvers very easily around the house, and even if I bump it into something, the vacuum and the object remain clean. With my other vacuum, it was always leaving marks on something. All the tools are easy to use. I really love the furniture attachment. Also, there are so many different setting – 6 – and they all work well. The floor tool easily goes under my furniture and swivels in every direction. The carpet tool works well on very low carpet, like area rugs. And the warranty is great. I highly recommend this vacuum.

Update: I still love the vacuum, but I have tendonitis in my right wrist, and using this vacuum, for me, is very difficult. I have to go very slowly and wear a wrist brace. The tube handle is very large, and i have a small hand. Also, if you have any problems like mine, be sure to open the air flow valve on the handle. The suction is so strong that it makes using the vacuum difficult. If you have hardwood or tile floors, the air flow open still gives you great cleaning. The vacuum is amazing. I just wish they would make a smaller handle accessory for those of us with smaller hands and wrist problems.

Will never buy anything else but a Miele, April 17, 2013

By

Patricia L. Olson (BOYNTON BEACH, FL, US) –

I bought my Miele Onyx one year ago. I didn’t want to waste money on vacuums that either didn’t do the job or didn’t last. The dealer let me have a one month, in home trial, and within that month I was sure I was getting my monies worth. I have both, carpet and hard floors, the vacuum came with heads for both, several attachments and a 7 year warranty. Although, it isn’t bagless, I don’t mind buying the bags because it is much cleaner and they offer allergen bags as well as regular. I sew, professionally, from home so I work daily. I also, have a dog and two cats that are inside pets. Vacuuming, daily, is an essential part of my home and I don’t have the first complaint. The vacuum is easy to move on it’s rollers, the vacuum bags are large and don’t fill quickly, it’s long cord allows for uninterrupted cleaning to change outlets. All in all, I am very pleased.
