    Why do bypass vacuums have such terrible deep-cleaning performance?

    My Miele C3 is the best cleaning and filtering machine I’ve ever owned. I wouldn’t trade it for any other mobile vacuum. The only thing I would even think about giving it up for is a central vacuum, but even then the fine tuning of the power controls just make it a dream with versatility.

    Miele c3 Auto Shut Off Rear Park Switch

    Is there a way to disable the rear park switch on the Miele C3 vacuums? Sometimes I don't need the wand and I would like to park it on the vacuum, but still continue vacuuming using the hand held nozzles. Thanks.

    What vacuums are you hoping would come out in 2022?

    I’d like to see an American company make a Miele quality vacuum at a price Europeans pay for their Mieles. As Americans, pay a hefty price for a Miele. Much more than Europeans do. It be nice if American company could offer the same.

    Miele C3 I am a pet allergy sufferer. I first bought a Sebo Felix. It cleaned well, but the filtration was sub par in my case. The vacuum exhaust smelled like dog after a week. The vacuum exhausts along the entire cylinder and when it blew in my face my lungs were shot for the day. I...

    Favorite Color On A Vacuum

    My C3 Alize My favorite color is the petrol on my C3 Alize. It’s a nice mix of emerald and turquoise. I liked the color so much that I bought the vacuum and purchased the electric wand, hose, and brush separately instead of buying a Miele C3 with the electric brush included. Gold print on...

    Sebo Felix Exhaust Filter Options

    I have a Sebo Felix Onyx. I was thinking of changing up the exhaust filter to something other than the standard onyx filter. Have any of you gone with another color and if so, could you reply with a pic? Thanks!

    Need to replace a Sebo Felix...

    Quick Correction to My Post Above. The exhaust air does not come out cool to mild warm. It exhausts mild warm to warm.

    Need to replace a Sebo Felix...

    Miele C3 With Electo Brush and Parquet Brush When it comes to 50/50, I'm a big fan of canister vacuums. I'd look at the Miele C3 line with the electro brushes that height adjust and then purchase their parquet hard floor brush separately to clean your hard floors. I have a Felix, but I...

    Best Hard Floor Tool That Stands Upright

    Electric hose input? I received my Alize and noticed it has an input for an electric hose. Does this mean it will work with an electric hose, wand, and floor tool like any other Miele C3 that originally comes with one? Or does the Alize not have the same power performance as a C3 that comes...

    Best Hard Floor Tool That Stands Upright

    Bought a Miele Alize I ended up ordering a Miele C3 Alize. I always thought they were beautiful machines (especially in the new blue color) and think I was just looking for an excuse to buy one haha. I will keep my Felix to deep clean my rugs and use the Alize for the rest of the house (hard...

    Felix Pet Exhaust Filter

    Didn't Work For Me I have a 9 Series Speed Queen. I set it to the delicates cycle, hot water, prewash, and extra rinse to give it a full chance. The interior started off as black before the wash. After the wash, it was light gray and part of the plastic had came apart from the cloth. I...

    Felix Pet Exhaust Filter

    I never thought about washing it. I may give it a try. It can’t hurt if I’m planning on replacing it anyway.

    Felix Pet Exhaust Filter

    They say 8-10 years? Thanks for the update. I’m sure the filter could physically last 8-10 years, but after 8 bags mine is ready to be replaced, for sure!

    Best Hard Floor Tool That Stands Upright

    Thanks Thanks for the suggestions. I think I’m going to go ahead and purchase an E3 in the future. It looks like you can park the bare floor tool on the canister.

    Best Hard Floor Tool That Stands Upright

    Right now I have a Sebo Felix. The ET-1 powerhead is pretty good on bare floors, but not nearly as good as the Parquet tool. However, the Parquet tool is a pain when you want to use the hose, as the vacuum can't be upright unless its leaning on something. Is there another tool from Sebo or...
