Miele Complete C3 Pure Red PowerLine, Bagged Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner, Corded

Product Information

We reserve the right to make technical changes; we assume no liability for the accuracy of the information provided. According to testing company, the Miele is able to take +80% of dirt and allergens out of your carpets, which – according to the testing company – is rare even amongst the best vacuum cleaners. With 890 W of power, the Miele Complete C3 Pure Power will effortlessly remove even the most stubborn dirt from all manner of surfaces. I couldn't find a time strip on my filter so I am going to assume, by process of deduction, that my filter is just the "Airclean" which is the one in the list which doesn't need activating and isn't 'light blue'.

Thanks to its ergonomic design and 360° rotating hose, the vacuum cleaner feels comfortable to use whether you're left or right-handed. Meanwhile, Miele AirClean filters are equipped with a TimeStrip that slowly changes colour as the filter becomes more saturated.

It's been a while since we've had a bagged vacuum cleaner, we've been using a hand held vacuum for a few years now, but we always said that if we were to switch back to a corded vacuum then a Miele vacuum would be one of our top choices. A perfect seal ensures that all dust is safely deposited into the dustbag and not back into the air. In comparison to a hand held vacuum cleaner, it isn't as easy to use on the stairs, but it does appear to give a better clean, and the light weight design means that it isn't too cumbersome carrying it up and down the stairs.

Luckily, a packet of Miele dustbags also includes an exhaust filter and a motor protection filter so everything required is included. One thing I will say is don't lose the instructions, because although they aren't easy to follow, you will need them if you aren't used to using a Miele Vacuum. It has an electrobrush with a five-level height adjustment that adapts to different carpet piles, from low to high. The Comfort telescopic tube with its exclusive Miele design can be intuitively extended to the desired working height and locked into position.The Miele C3 HEPA Pure Power with Hepa filter is the C3 Powerline model with the additional HEPA filter and has a powerful 900W motor, which provides great suction and offers exceptional floor cleaning on all surfaces. Apparently, you need to change the Miele exhaust filter every time you open a new 'packet' of Miele dustbags. In combination with it’s leakage free design and high efficiency standard filtration, the Miele C3 HEPA Powerline collects and retains dirt better than most of the more expensive units from other manufacturers.

The Miele Complete C3 Vacuum only came with one dustbag which was already attached - so I can't comment on the ease of changing the filters, or the dustbags, and the instructions aren't amazingly clear. The Miele Complete C3 bagged cylinder vaccum can be changed between use on a carpet or hard floor easily with the flick of the switch on top of the floor head.Combining a tight seal with the air flow, the floorhead delivers strong suction to achieve impressive results even on the lowest power setting. It has a great little 'park system' to hold the telescopic tube and floorhead upright when pausing or storing away. My Parents in law have a Miele vacuum and rave about the quality of their products so we were really keen to see if this lived up to the hype! Boasting an 11m operating radius, as well as a telescopic tube, this vacuum cleaner allows you to clean large areas, as well as reach those tricky corners easily.
