The Miele S7580 Bolero is now known as the Dynamic U1 AutoEco (Miele's new name for this machine). It is one of the Premium Class vacuums in the S7 upright series. It is powerful, quiet, maneuverable and loaded with features such as suction control, automatic height adjustment and a special HEPA filter that includes activated carbon for odor removal. Consumer reviews are few but generally quite good and most owners are pleased with their purchase. The machine is a little heavy however and, like many Miele vacuum cleaners, it is not cheap.

The Miele Cat and Dog S7260 (now known as the Miele Dynamic U1 Cat & Dog) is part of Miele's S7 line of upright vacuum cleaners. The Cat and Dog gets reasonable consumer ratings and is loaded with features. Owners like the the look and feel of the unit with many commenting on the quality fit and finish. It has powerful suction yet still manages to be fairly quiet and is capable on both carpet and bare floors. It is also very effective at pulling up pet hair. The downsides of this machine are its weight, its cost, and, more recently, increasing problems over the lifetime of the vacuum.

If you want quality and dont like to compromise then the Miele Capricorn may be the right vacuum cleaner for you (recently replaced by the Complete C3 Brilliant). It is made in Germany, has a life expectancy of some 20 years, and comes with many, many features. The Miele S5981 Capricorn is the top end of the Miele Canister vacuum cleaners and, as expected, it also gets very good ratings from owners. The downside of this machine is that it is expensive.

Miele have been manufacturing floor care products for 80 years and they are famous for making quality vacuum cleaners. We've reviewed several of their canister vacuums and stick vacuums in the past and in most cases have found them to be solid products. The S7210 Twist (now renamed the Miele Dynamic U1 Twist) is the first full-size Miele upright we have looked at, but it does not rate as highly as their canister machines. It uses a powerful Miele-made vortex motor, has automatic height adjustment, a very long 39 foot power cord and also comes with variable suction control.

Like many of its canister brothers the Miele Olympus vacuum cleaner (recently renamed to the Miele Classic C1 Olympus vacuum cleaner) receives high grades from consumers. Owners praise the vacuum for its powerful suction yet quiet operation. It is also very effective on bare floors. However if this unit has a weakness it is likely its limited cleaning ability on carpet. On very low-pile carpet it is ok, but it struggles with anything deeper than this.

The Miele S4212 Polaris canister vacuum gets average grades from consumers. It is the least expensive of the Miele S4 series of canisters and is recommended for short-pile carpet, area rugs and hard surface floors. Consumers like the Polaris' light weight, variable suction and extremely quiet operation. On the downside the power cord is a little short.

The Miele S168 stick vacuum is the latest Miele stick vac and it is slightly more advanced (and more expensive) than the S163. The suction on the S168 is fully variable and some consumers heap praise on this machine for its power and its ability to run very quietly. On the downside, even though rather light for an upright, it is considered by many to be too heavy for a stick vacuum.

With a score of 81/100 from consumers the Miele Neptune stands out as a good example of a solid canister vacuum. The Miele Neptune is lightweight, compact and powerful. It is not a machine however for deep pile carpet but it excels when applied to low or medium-pile carpeting, area rugs and smooth flooring.

Like most Miele vacuum cleaners this one works very well but reviews are fairly average and it is also expensive. Having said that, it was recently rated by Consumers Digest as a Best Buy. Owner ratings on this unit are limited, but those comments that can be found are good in some cases but poor in others. The Miele S163 stick vacuum also comes with a Super Air Clean Filter and an optional HEPA filter, a level of air filtration not overly common with stick vacs. It is recommended for low-pile carpeting and smooth floors.

There are two Miele S4212 vacuums - the S4212 Polaris and the S4212 Neptune. The base model, the Miele S4212 Polaris is the replacement for the Miele S4210 Carina. It should be noted that the S4212 Polaris is entirely the same vacuum with the same features as the S4210 Carina. The only difference is the color - the Polaris is a light blue color (baby blue) while the Carina is a light yellow. Like the S4210 Carina, the S4212 Polaris is the entry level Galaxy S4 series Miele canister vacuum, and like the Carina it is recommended for short-pile carpeting, area rugs and smooth flooring.

After a number of comments asking us to review the likes of Miele, Lindhaus and Sebo we have undertaken our first Miele review. Were we impressed? Well, yes actually. We typically have reviewed some of the more moderately priced brands of vacuum cleaners and the three aforementioned can be a bit pricey, however the Miele S4210 (Carina version at least) can be found at some websites/stores for under 400 USD. Not cheap but then again not over the top for a machine with fantastic reviews and a 7 year motor warranty (yes 7 years).
