If you don't buy a Miele after THIS, you'll never buy one.
That's the one I've got, only mine's blue.

Well, I nipped into Comet on the way home and bought one. Jesus christ that thing can suck. I put it on the highest setting for a laugh and I think I nearly ripped the fitted carpet up. Yet it's still amazingly quiet.

I had a good prod and poke in the shop, loved the build quality. I haven't got the model with the remote control but the one I've got will do me.

Happy vacuuming!

It's a little extra thing on the hose that allows you to alter the suction and turn it on and off

Can you not just use the foot switch to turn it off?

I still can't believe I'm posting on a thread about vacuum cleaners.
