Miele Complete C3 Alize PowerLine vs Miele Complete C3 Calima

Verdict

The Miele Complete C3 Alize PowerLine is an excellent bagged canister vacuum that offers great performance on bare floors and carpets. It has seven levels of suction power adjustment, allowing you to adapt to different surface types, and it comes with a range of convenience features such as onboard storage for attachments, a power cord that retracts with the press of a button, and an automatic stop switch. It also has a HEPA filter to trap allergens as you clean. On the downside, it may require multiple passes to fully clean very fine material on carpets.

Verdict

The Miele Complete C3 Calima is a great choice for those looking for a lightweight and quiet canister vacuum. It comes with several useful attachments, including a dusting brush, crevice tool, and upholstery tool that all fit perfectly inside the machine. The AirClean Sealed System combined with a HEPA AirClean Filter ensures over 99.9% filtration of dust and dirt, making it ideal for allergy sufferers. However, some customers have noted that the carpet agitator is mediocre at best and the attachments are cheaply made.
