Good Points

I have had Miele cleaners for over 10 years now, and overall they have been excellent. The build quality is normally good. Our house has lots of stairs, and the cylinder format is best for this. The brushes included in the Cat & Dog package are good, but they do get clogged up. I agree with the previous poster, as the stair brush doesn't go close enough to the edge.


Bad Points

Build quality.


General Comments

Miele have really compromised quality build on this new model. The tools lid is incredibly flimsy, and if the tools are not replaced exactly in their slots, it won't close and could easily break the hinges. My old Black Diamond model was much sturdier and heavier plastic. This notwithstanding, the actual unit is good, and it is powerful, but it does lose suction when the bag fills.

Having been a Mei fan for years I decided to go with the Miele Cat & Dog 700 vacuum cleaner, but I think Miele need to take heed of the customer reaction to their noticeable drop in build quality. We took out the five year guarantee, which includes an annual supply of bags and filters just in case.
