Lucky you. Most people won't give up their Mieles. They have insane resale value. I'd say any modern working Miele under $100 is a steal. Good going! |

$39.99. I remember the year Consumer Reports gave Meile the highest rating. It was $1,100. |

I am very tall and usually I am crouched by the time I finish chasing the vacuum. This handle extends to a full 5 feet, not counting the handle of the power nozzle connector. |

The power nozzle has a choice of 6 settings. Great for bare floors or thick carpet. |

It gives you a choice of several power settings or auto. You can hear the motor speed up on carpet or slow down dusting or bare floors. |

Fantastic find. This machine is made in 1998 till 2001. Next to the black edition this was the top model. In Holland and Belgium the powernozzle was still an extra option, but in Germany it Came with the deal. Price was back then about 350 euro lets say around 200 us dollars. Verry nice find, but a shame they are so extremely expensive over there.

..when it comes to buying a canister/cylinder vac, it has to be a Miele. Here's my 2. The Basic S5210 (black) and higher end S5281 Solution Hepa (blue). I hope it gives you many years of impeccable service..as we have come to expect from Miele. My S5281 is my current daily driver machine.
