Verdict

The Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog is a powerful and efficient vacuum cleaner that comes with an electric power head. It is highly energy-efficient and incredibly quiet, making it ideal for apartment living. It has been praised for its ability to clean carpets effectively and its long-lasting performance. However, some customers have reported that the rollerbrush and housing need to be replaced frequently.

Verdict

The Numatic Henry Xtra HVX200 is a powerful vacuum cleaner that offers great suction power and is lightweight and easy to carry around. It has a retractable cord, making it more convenient than uprights, and its arrow brush provides fast spinning action for deep cleaning carpets. However, the cylinder form factor is clunky and the use of bags is environmentally unfriendly, creating high running costs over time. Additionally, the hose length is shorter than advertised.

Suction

Not overly impressed

We’ve had over a year and while nothing has had to be replaced, it doesn’t seem to like Rottweiler hair. There’s always hair still on the floors (LVP and tile). It has good suction when you feel it but it just seem to get all the hair and tends to just push it away no matter what setting I choose. For reference, I do have multiple kids and multiple dogs though

Product not quite as described...

For someone smaller and not as strong I think this would be a major issue. This vacuum is really quiet and does really suck pretty hard, at least on low. On the high setting it's a lot louder, but the suction is great. Even on high I think it's more quiet than my upright vacuum

Cleaning Performance

This is a GREAT vacuum, but I can’t recommend it...

‘Filter cone’. This is a coarse pre-filter which, if it clogs, will definitely cut down the suction power of the vac. Accessing it requires removing the main dust receptacle, then pulling a handle which releases the filter cone, which lives in the dustbin. After vacuuming my house one time (one medium-sized dog on premises), this ‘filter cone’ was wrapped with dog hair and definitely needed cleaning

Another ex-UK resident who couldn't bring the One True Vacuum

That one was so bad I had to "feed" bits and pieces of items to be picked up into the "mouth" of the vaccuum, and I had to constantly clean its filter even though the container wasn't full at all. After months of that, I trashed the product both physically and figuratively via an Amazon review, and I promptly bought my U.S. version of the British Numatic

Power

Not sure it is worth the money

I was used to the power button on my Kenmore which was on the handle. Super convenient for turning on and off during jobs. Not this one. It’s on the canister

Good little vacuum, has a few flaws.

First off, the suction power is GREAT. I have gone through several vacuums and I would have to say this has the best suction. Having said that, the vacuum is top heavy and tips easily as I try to pull it across the carpet. The need to hand wind the cord can be a bit of a pain, but it is nice to have it tucked away

Ease Of Use

Perfection! My review will compare this to Miele Triflex and Miele C1 Canister

Thankfully, Amazon agreed to give me a full refund, and in its place I bought this CX1. Unlike the Triflex, there was no learning curve..

Exactly what I was looking for!

The whole unit is stored away quite easily and with less clutter because of this I found it easily carried by hand via the handle and the airo brush adapter is easy to clean, just cut the hairs with a scissors and pull out(the directions are only pictures). So far the vacuum works exactly as I was hoping, I've only had it less than a month so far but I'm looking forward to seeing how well it does throughout the year.

Design

The best Vacuum I have ever owned, also the most expensive I have ever purchased

It is quiet, it moves effortlessly, it is very light for a corded machine. The design is very artistic making it lovely to look at when stored somewhere. It is bagless. This has to be the greatest consumer vacuum on the market

Positive

Filtration

If you have allergies, buy this vacuum.

No dust comes out of the Miele's exhaust. The canister opens more than 90 degrees, and the opening is large, so emptying is not a mess. The extra dust filter makes a huge difference. if you didn't know, it has a fine dust filter that contains the smaller dust particles and can be emptied wet so it doesn't become airborne

Straight guy seeking cute vacuum for some clean fun

Get the HEPA bags to go with it. How they filter so well without clogging up is a mystery to me. You will not regret this purchase.
