A pretty accurate and knowledgeable write up from TR, featuring Dyson DC41 MK2, V6 models, Sebo Felix and airbelts and a couple of Mieles, and of course, the Numatic Henry ! http://www.trustedreviews.com/best-vacuum-cleaner_round-up

Cloth all the way. They are far more durable, most of them to the point you'll have a hard time actually damaging them even deliberately. Most are electrostatic which helps with airflow, they are essentially one large filter, like just superior in every way and they cost around about the same...

Dont have much time for Miele. There customer service sucks and their machines are not as well made as people make them out to be. Don't like their practices recently either. I still have a problem with their manufacturing being shifted to China for their lower end models. There is no excuse...

Very well done to you chap. I do not like Vax products, have never got on with them. Since TTI took them over, they produce cheaply made crap quite honestly. I did not see for example the hype about the air cordless. I had one for a couple of days but took it back and order my dyson dc59 at the...

Well we have the wonderful EU to thank for this. As we know, unelected bureaucrats should indeed be telling us what watts the motors in our vacuums have! Of course it isnt as black and white as that but the immediate impact is yes, suction has decreased overall. I am all for a better designed...

Maybe because its not an officially imported model ?

Christ almighty. What a way to go off topic.

That is probably true as well, regarding Numatic working on a tighter profit margin, but they like it. It is a private company so no shareholders to please, lets hope it stays that way. They are3 more interested in build a quality product for consumers, and at the end of the day, £9 million in...

They wouldn't make "heaps" more though. You have to remember shipping costs and rising wages in China are making things much less attractive to produce over there. Because of the business model numatic have, and they mentioned this in one of their videos, that they have such a wide variety of...

People keep saying "products are made in China because of cheap labour, which means the price is cheap" but it's absolute rubbish and a complete con. You CAN buy good value British/ German, American and, well, western built products, and they are often much better built. You are supporting a...

I have had 2 Mieles, S6 cylinder and an S7 and found the cylinder to be like any other straight suction cylinder I have sued. Sure, it is quiet and quite well made but thats it. I found the S7 to be horrible to be honest. I bunny hopped over my shag thick carpets and the build quality quite...

Looks brilliant. Very well done. This is exactly what I would have done (and have done) as well!

If you go on sebos website, they talk about how the fact their machines are built so well and last so long, that they are more environmentally friendly as they don't fill up landfills every few years. This is absolutely true. The sebo is just a better vacuum from every angle for, to be honest...

^^ Mate, these Dysons do not hold a candle to the Miele and certainly not the SEBO. In terms of just about everything, the SEBO models are much better.

You wont go wrong with either machines, but I would go for the SEBO, and the E3 premium. It is a better model, has the tapered hose design so should have greater suction, is more compact and better designed than the K3 which is quite an old design now, although there still isn't much wrong with...

Of course. Buying cheap can be expensive. Love my felix.

The reviews on amazon don't look all that good on these though.

Actually, the consumers were not given a choice. When EBAC conducted a survey in England earlier in the year, they found people would pay extra/seek a British made product over an imported product. DFS say one of the biggest things people enquire about when buying sofas is where they are made...

I have a problem with it. This isn't "globalisation", this is a take-over. There is no diversity in manufacturing, it is literally all made in China. If I buy a Miele product, i pay a premium. I want proper German manufacturing and engineering. Or am I paying for an overpriced Chinese made...

I was under the assumption that Miele make a majority of their parts in house, in Germany.
