I think money off would be how I'd try to handle it. I do believe that these had cord winder issues, if I'm not mistaken. Didn't you already have to buy a new hose for it as well? |

sounds like either a bad cord or loose connections. |

Yes I did need to buy a new hose. $145.00. As you can see in the add the hose was taped up. Any idea how much a cord reel is? |

It could be a number of things, Cara. Not least for the original listing that states it all: "power nozzle has been taped up, though cracked and taped."
Given that you have already bought a hose it could also be a problem with the Power nozzle handle. Even if a crack has been taped up, any kind of movement can affect the circuitry. Of course it depends on how deep that crack is. But still, I would expect some money off for the actual trouble the Miele is giving you and how it actually can't be used for reliable cleaning with.

Change th3 cord first. I've had a few miele cylinders that did this, the cord had broken where it enters the reel from repeated pulling. Was quite easy to change and sorted it right out |
