Hi Chris,
Welcome to the forum. You don't need to worry about the lower wattage. As well as lowering the power, the new regulations have also set a minimum performance. So vacuums are using less power, but manufacturers are having to find new, more innovative ways to give the same performance. The suction on the lower power cleaners may less, but it's still plenty and enough to clean the floors to the same standard. Especially if you go for the powernozzle model, the brushroll will do most of the work so the suction power doesn't need to be that much. For info, I have a 620w Henry and the suction power is equally as good as the 1200w model. Plus, many manufacturers have redesigned the tools and floor heads to give better pick up with lower power. | ||

I used my Kombi head on my kitchen floor and it was fine, but then I never use full suction on my kitchen floor as the floor heads often stick to it. It is not so good on carpets, but that doesn't matter when you have the powerhead. | ||

Any cylinder will clean fine on a hard floor. It doesn't take much suction to pick up dirt from a hard floor. After all, there's no pile and nothing for the dirt and dust to stick to. | ||

Thanks turbo500. Just spotted that on the miele. Wished I hadnt found somewhere that still had stock of the k3 2100w now! Then I think the decision would be easier. Anyone aware of anywhere cheaper than £290 GBP for the E3 Premium? | ||

Sensotronic. I thought the K1 Pet had the 1200w motor? Sebo4me. Used to have a Kirby and they are quality but...they are not suited to our home. I preferred the sebo k3 vulcano much more. | ||

The K series has the S class filter before the motor. The exhaust filter is not very efficient and carbon dust will escape which is why the dust emissions are higher than the E series.
I'm not a fan of the K series. The offset those makes the cleaner veer to one side when you pull it behind you and I hate the tug and rewind cord. The E series is a better design. That's the one is go for. It recently had a 10 out of 10 review by trusted reviews. | ||

Both the 700 and 1200 watt versions have the same rating for dust pick up on floors, so I don't think it matters. The 1200 watt model is probably performs better with the turbo brush. | ||

So general feeling is go for the E3 Premium 700w over the K3 Premium 2100w. And at £290 there aren't any other options I should consider? | ||
