-- Miele Bolero Upright S7580 Deep Black

I'm not a fussy housekeeper, but I have a cat with soft short hair that merges with the fibers of our oriental carpets, and her fur fuses with dust balls becoming a weighty floor cover on it's own... And I had been using a Hoover vacuum upright, using the crevice tool and going over the carpets in small areas (taking about 2 hours to vacuum).

With the Miele Bolero Upright there is enough suction that I do the carpets in 10 minutes and the floors in about 40 min (whole house). It's easy to shift from the upright to the hose and tools. My husband says it has headlights! I m totally happy with the vacuum; it's worth the cost! Only concern for some might be that it has too much suction so that small bits (screws, rubber bands, etc) get sucked up before you can bend down to pick them up!

$ Miele Bolero Upright S7580 Deep Black

Well, I've only had this baby two days now, but I have to say it's been interesting. For 15 years now I've owned nothing but Kirby vacs, and the last one exploded on me last weekend. I nearly called Kirby for a new one, but every Kirby I've owned has cost more than a grand, and I was tired of paying that much for something that smelled so bad.



Hubby wasn't around when the Miele arrived, but I was able to get the thing out of the box, put it together, and figure out how it worked without him -- a point in its favor already. And included was a well-written user's guide -- how cool is that in this era of impossibly bad writing?



The thing is heavy, without a doubt. I foresee developing some triceps after using it for a while, but that's not a bad thing. I love the swivel head -- it's more maneuverable than any upright vac I've had before. And the design screams efficiency. The Kirby had more attachments but they were in a box out in the garage, untouched. This one has all the attachments built into the body of the vacuum, easy to access and use. I used two of them the first day.



The long cord was a plus -- I had an extension cord permanently attached on the Kirby, but this one doesn't need it. Plenty long enough for my 1500-square foot house. The motor is much quieter than the Kirby -- didn't even have to put the dogs outside when I used it. They just stood and watched it, unlike the Kirby which made them all bark frantically and try to attack it. And finally, no bad smell. No matter how often I changed bags on the Kirby it stank. This vacuum doesn't smell. Maybe it's the additional filters, maybe the special bags -- I'm not technical enough to know. I just know it doesn't stink. But it does suck! Very nice both on suction and air flow; even used it to dust a ceiling fan.



Here's looking forward to a long and happy working relationship.
