That's your problem if you've got a Miele should've up your arse, love - you should see a doctor about that.
I'm not a massive fan of the Miele uprights, so if you were trying to make some sort of point, it's failed entirely.
Just another example of how you make no sense. Stating that you'll stick to a vacuum design first launched in 1983 and not been on sale for 14 years as a daily driver, but then saying that a machine that's based on a design from 1991 and still on sale AND updated to meet modern standards is too block and old fashioned? Yeh, 'cause THAT makes sense.
I'm not saying you shouldn't have an opinion, but when you seem to pull your opinion out of thin air and can't back it up with any kind of experience, it kind of makes it a waste of time replying to your question. Maybe you should put a disclaimer on the bottom of your posts to say "by the way, for no good reason, I don't like X brand, Y brand or Z brand". I mean, have you even used a Sebo to be able to form a real judgement? Gosh, I may disagree with Alex from time to time, but credit where credit is due, his opinions and views are formed from experience and not just pulled out of his backside.
Although from the above thread it seems that, regardless of whatever people suggest to you, you'll go out of you way to find something you don't like about it. Why even bother asking the question if you know full well that nothing is going to be what you want?
