Hi! Found this lovely looking shiny Miele that I am interested in, heard good and bad things about these and I know the DC41 is a good machine performance wise and looks lovely, I prefer the look of the satin blue DC41 personally but that's me. I am a little confused as to which one may be better.
I live in a multi floored house with different types of carpets, thick and thin. The entire downstairs is tile except for the front room which is gonna be carpeted, but the two living rooms have large area rugs. One of them is thin pile and the other is medium pile. We have a rubber backed rug in the kitchen and another dense carpet by the back door. We have loop pile carpet on both flights of 13 stairs and 14 stairs, one of the staircases are straight, the other staircase is bent.
It is a curve shape 90 degrees. The landing is also loop pile. The bedrooms have laminate on the first floor, but have thin area rugs and mine is a carpeted room with one like an inch thick approx. The top floor is all laminate with area rugs which are also thin.
We vacuum like once or twice a day, on some occasions 3 times a day and we have lots of guests coming all the time and a large family. We use the vacuum for like more than half an hour for a proper clean, roughly an hour but when we do a quick clean we are careless, we bash he vacs into the furniture etc but that's the daily drivers. Never the rare ones! :O
We have had Dyson since 1997 and had models from DC01-DC41/40 so ya, Never tried a Miele before. The most play I have ever had with a Miele was to open the bag door of a Miele S7 in Comet and I hated how the bag door had to be pushed "slowly" back in. Took like 5 secs, WTH?! I am looking to either buy this or a Dyson DC05 motorhead. Not like we need to buy one, but my Dyson DC14 motor blew up after lots of DIY work, so it was kinda expected. I hear loads of praises and lots of horror stories and I just wanna know the truth and how you think it would cope in my house.
Thanks

As for the Felix, I would still like one but I hardly see any, especially a good cheap one but this Miele S7 came up cheap so figured why not
