For me, the Miele S7 is too big, heavy and difficult to steer. Granted the SEBO doesn't promote itself on having the highest suction - it never has done - but for an all rounder, its pretty good and you can fix and repair it yourself should it go wrong. What Miele are missing is a compact upright bagged vacuum that could effectively act as a go between - the Quick Step isn't the solution though.
I never understood why Miele have a fixed hose with screws that you have to undo to take off the bottom hose on the S7 either. It seems to have good design points over and above this aspect even though the brush roll isn't removable. For those in the U.S and Canada where bigger homes take precedence, the S7 is a good modern alternative. I have been in a similar position before when either bags on my Sebo or Miele canisters get too full and I've not taken replacements with me. I dont tend to buy the more modern Hyclean Miele bags but rather the older Intensive Clean bags - where excess dust can be shaken outside easily to give a bit more space to finish up the clean session I'm doing at the time if I'm out with my vacs and not near home. |
