Miele Vacuum Comparison Chart
A family-owned company founded in Germany in 1899, Miele is dedicated to perfection. The company's motto Immer Besser, meaning "forever better," has guided Miele to always strive for quality, value and innovation.
Each Miele vacuum reflects incredible attention to detail and is made with the same precision as a German automobile. These state-of-the-art vacuums not only clean your home, they also filter the air you breathe. Powerful yet quiet, they provide exceptional suction to clean everything from carpets and smooth floors to furniture and draperies.
Unlike other vacuums, the Miele has a completely sealed system — all dust particles that enter the machine stay there. Every model is easy to maneuver and includes an automatic cord rewind for added convenience.
