    Miele bags and filter generic options

    Airtight??? Not an airtight seal. Try and find anywhere in writing where-as Miele claims it to be. It is only a seal to prevent leakage when taking the bag out to change it. Airtight is something people assume and never claimed by Miele. Specs Miele AirClean GN bags replace IntensiveClean...

    Miele bags and filter generic options

    Bag collar The Bag collar has always been pushed back down in the slot. The Miele bags are not an air tight seal and do leak fine dust. If you take off your hose and look into the vacuum you will see the flap is opened. The flap only closes when you open the bag access door. I do believe...

    Miele bags and filter generic options

    Might be a defective bag The bag may be defective? I do believe the Bag Go Vac sells is just as good as the OEM. While arguments against premotor filters might be valid as some manufactures are inferior to the OEM. The Hepa filter to me is worth the savings. I do belive this after market...

    This is the OEM bag See the dust leaking. I have only used the OEM bag, they are no better than some of the generics.

    it your money My OEM GN Miele bags leaks, period. It's your money and you need to spend it the way you want. Your not driving down the freeway at 80 MPH in ur mIele so the tire comparison is silly. Another excellent choice, it's your money.

    Miele bags and filter generic options

    Snake oil, that is what you are selling when you state these bags and filters are some how going to destroy your machine. These generic bags are actually made by Electrolux and there is a good chance the generic filter is made by the same company that manufacture the Miele brand and put their...

    Hepa filters Take a close look, a $38 saving is huge and worth giving the generic a try.

    Miele bags and filter generic options

    I purchased the following on Amazon and offer the following opinion. Generic Bags: 5 bags and filters for $8 which is $1.60 per bag or a $2.40 per bag savings from the OEM bags. I do not see a big difference in the quality between the generic and the OEM bags, maybe a slight edge to the OEM...

    Miele UniQ

    George CT Do yourself a favor and disregard GeorgeCT link. To compare a Kenmore too a Miele is like comparing a Moped to a Harley, anyone who does looks foolish. Now a Sebo D4, Rainbow and a few others are fair and on equal grounds in term of features and build quality. The other canister I...

    Miele UniQ

    Next one down The dealers I spoke with felt it was overkill and recommended the next model down. I do love my S8 Miele, silent and smooth. Here is a nice video about the different models. Note the red one, this is the Homecare only sold through dealers and they cannot talk about or...

    Budget Canister Vacuum

    Budget canister? Good input, what would be a good budget canister recommendation? I have looked at Riccar and felt thay were way over priced and nowhere near the quality of Miele and Sebo. Anyone have experience with a good budget canister?[this post was last edited: 8/30/2013-02:58]

    What your favorite Vacuum?

    There is no right or wrong and Please only choose one as your absolute favorite. After 20 years I have just switched from upright to canister and the Miele S8 with the Seb-236 is my absolute favorite vacuum. Please respect everyone's choice

    Very cool hose for Miele canister owners

    Cost $$ They sell it with a complete kit, not sure the cost. I know they sell the for less when you purchase a Miele. I will probably bite the bullet eventually and let you know if it works well under load. It would be very nice for high ceilings, ceiling fans and ledges. Miele really...

    Is your suction killing your airflow

    Dysonman 1 Dysonman1, maybe you should contact Miele and let them know their manual is wrong.
