Miele canister vacuums are built to last Like all products from Miele, Miele canister vacuums are built to a rigorous 20-year life design model... a Miele unique quality standard. In practice, this means that the machine must withstand a 1,000-hour endurance test before production can begin. A number of other critical tests are performed including a threshold test, a cable rewind test and a free fall test to ensure the durability of the machine and its components. All Miele vacuum cleaners - every single one - are tested before leaving the factory to ensure perfection. This steadfast commitment to quality and ultimate customer satisfaction is truly Miele-unique. And Miele offers a 7-year motor warranty. Warrany and Reliability - The standard warranty period is 1 year for vacuum parts and labor, and 7 years for motor parts and labor for Miele machines.
- The two fan motor design means that it extends the life of the motor by reducing the wear on the ball bearings and motor brushes.
- Each vacuum has a heat sensor which comes on when there is a clog and therefore prevents the vacuum cleaner from overheating.
- All Miele canisters have a dust bag change indicator to let you when the bag is at full capacity and needs to be changed.
- The amount of testing that Miele does before they release their machines from the factory is without peer in the industry.
Miele S5981CapricornSEB236 Customer Reviews Review by C. Cox on 2010-05-10 Location: Would you recommend this product to a friend? Yes! " great vacuum and great service"I bought the Miele Capricorn S5981 based on a number of glowing reviews from others who bought one. They were right. It's very expensive and not for everyone, but I am impressed and how well built it is and cannot say enough about how well it cleans my carpets, wood floors and even by the baseboards where nothing I've owned has cleaned very well if at all. It was shipped promptly and the service was great. While I doubt I'll need another vacuum cleaner, I would definitely buy another Miele Capricorn. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpfulWas this review helpful to you? Yes No
Review by Chicagoman on 2010-03-21 Location: ChicagoWould you recommend this product to a friend? Yes! "Good Vac, Cheezy hose"Overall the vacuum is great. Does a fantastic job cleaning. Only criticism is the cheap lightweight plastic hose that's lack of mass makes it unwieldy.
I understand that a lightweight hose makes for a lighter vacuum, but when you're trying to vacuum a table top or curtains near a table top, the hose springs off in a direction that's bound to knock over a few things.
I've had mine for about three years. The only defect that has appeared recently is a short in the swivel connection between the hose and control handle. As soon as you wiggle it the machine comes back to life. Annoying but I can live with it rather than replace an expensive hose. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpfulWas this review helpful to you? Yes No
Review by Tonedog on 2010-01-08 Location: Would you recommend this product to a friend? Yes! "Simply Incredible"I do all the vacuuming in the house, so I wanted a quality vacuum that would make vacuuming as fun and as little work as possible.
This vacuum is worth every penny. It is extremely powerful and quiet. We have two big dogs and this picks up the hair no problem. Our red carpet looks like new each time we vacuum. There is no "vacuum" dust smell that I have hated about other vacuums. Best of all, this has to be one of the quietest vacuums on the market. You can talk on the phone or whatever while vacuuming it is so quiet. Also, this vacuum is small and lightweight, which makes vacuuming easy and makes it easy to get under things and into tight spaces. The controls are easy to use, it has about 7 power settings, and the height is easily adjustable. The power brush has an automatic jam shut off that protects the belt if something gets jammed in it. It has not clogged once by the way... Changing the bags is super quick and easy and not messy in the least bit. The small attachments store conveniently in the top of the canister and are very practical to use. I love the retractable cord which is super long and retracts perfectly every time. It has many other practical, thoughtful features that you will appreciate each time you vacuum. Those Germans thought of everything with this vacuum! Plus, if you have allergies, this vacuum is one of the best for that with its excellent air filtration abilities.
When you use this product, you will see that this is one of the finest vacuums available today. I'm so thankful I chose this vacuum over all the others I considered. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpfulWas this review helpful to you? Yes No
