Miele Capricorn

Joe,

Congratulations on your new purchase. I purchased a Capricorn a couple of months ago and absolutely love it! IMHO, my first Miele was a great vacuum, but the improvements that have been incorporated into the Capricorn--vortex motor and SEB 236 power nozzle--make it an incredible vacuum. If you haven't done so already, I strongly suggest that you install the HEPA filter. You might also consider getting a non-electrical hose to do your above floor cleaning. IMHO, the handle on the Capricorn makes it very difficult to manuver the dusting brush. You might check into getting a horse hair dusting brush. The new dusting brush is just awful. I still use the horse hair brush that came with the Miele S324i that I purchased 10 years ago.

A tip from across the pond....

Id say this for most cleaners, but it holds doubly true for Miele IMHO.

NEVER!! use anything other than genuine Miele bags- especially not any with a cardboard collar!

Nothing else comes close- also over here at least using non genuine bags can void your guarantee.

Miele: Immer besser!

In my opinion, nothing on the market comes close to beating the performance, quality and durability of Miele and Sebo machines. I bought my Miele Solution HEPA 700 a few months back, and I wouldn't trade it in for anything (apart from maybe a Miele Revolution with the electrobrush!). It works brilliantly, filters brilliantly, remains efficient even with a full bag; you couldn't ask more of a vacuum cleaner!! I'm sure you'll be very happy with yours.
