Riccar/Simplicity
Tacony products are far superior to Miele I own several Tacony vacuums and prefer them to any Miele I own .
I used to sell both in my store and feature for feature I sold more Simplicity vacuums (same as Riccar)
than I did Miele once I showed customer how they compare part by part .
Oh and the hoses are much longer than Miele Tom you left that out
