After 2 years the miele is still going strong.Robustly built,and with 6 settings,the machine has all you need.On the strongest setting the miele brings your carpets back to life,like no other.I read all the reviews before buying and can confirm this machine is excellent. Maybe slightly heavy for an older person.Not cheap,but this will outlive 3 or 4 cheap ones.I have noted changing the bags can be a bit time consuming,the return spring on the electric cable has become a bit tired.There is a...

This vacuum is certainly not cheap. But in my opinion its worth the money. Firstly, The vacuum is very quiet, even on full power. This is quite impressive, especially since the motor power on this machine is a whopping 2200w! It has 6 power settings, each clearly labelled for their uses (and more detailed in the manual) so you have the right amount of suction for every job. However, with such power, there is always a drawback. Sometimes its noise (owners of electrolux vacuums will sympathize... (read more)

I am delighted at how brilliant my new Miele S5211 vacuum cleaner is. My carpets havent looked so fresh and clean since they were fitted and all the other flooring in the house is so spotless you could eat your dinner off it! The suction is amazing. It is so powerful that I have to put it on a lower setting -otherwise it will try to gobble the furniture up! My house is now so much cleaner,and the job is done in a much shorter time. The build quality is of a very high standard, it is very... (read more)

If you're looking for a solid vacuum cleaner that will do the job, then you really don't need to look any further. I bought this after our Dyson stopped working and my only regret is that it should have been done sooner. Miele are so thoughtful in their design and engineering. The box has a cut out so you can carry it by the handle, which is such a minor detail, but something everyone else overlooks. The cleaner is easy to put together and feels high quality as soon as you take it out the... (read more)

Great vacuum. Had it just over a year and it's still going strong.
Why does anyone but cheaper, cr@p hoovers and replace them every year? Doesn't make sense to me....

The Miele S5211 cleaner gets top revues everywhere you look.After a year, not a week, like some reviews,I will give you my honest opinion of this machine,or at least the one that I own. It is a load of plastic junk!Yes, its suction is very powerful, but that in itself causes problems with accident prone hoovering.But my main complaint is the build quality - it started falling to bits within days of purchase.The tool cover sprang off, and continues to do so. The aluminium trim does the same.... (read more)

I can't praise the Miele S5211 vacuum cleaner enough. I have just vacuumed my house which is predominantly wooden flooring except for 2 landing, 2 stairs and a rug in the living room. The suction is so strong that I am out of breath. There are various settings but why use a lower one when you can use the strongest. It picks up everything from the carpets leaving them looking like new. The various attachments are great too especially the cone for use on stairs. It really lifts the pile. I've... (read more)

I found this review very helpful because...it showed all the things I was looking for ! Weight, moving it around, suction power. It sounds noisy but you cant have everything ! At least that shows there is some good power there.

My fav model is the <a href=http://thevacuumreviewer.com/mieles4212review>Miele S4212</a>. I find it a very powerful vacuum. I'm talking jaw dropping suction. It's hard to tell when its running too.
