On the upside, the onboard storage means the tools are always to hand. There’s also no issue with running out of battery, as is the case when using a cordless vacuum cleaner to thoroughly clean a flight of stairs. Pet Hair To maintain their effectiveness, the filters also have strips to let you know when they need changing. Emptying and Cleaning The C3 Pure Red comes with Miele’s Allteq combination floorhead. We think this universal floorhead is a great all-rounder that’s suitable for both carpets and hard floors, due to the retractable brushes. Unlike many modern vacs, the Miele C3 Complete Pure Red is a bagged vacuum. While bags are less convenient than bagless vacuums, they are more hygienic and hold far more dirt. The Miele’s bags also have a self-sealing design that prevents dust and other allergens escaping, along with an indicator for when you need to change the bag.

The company produces a range of cylinder vacuums, but both the C2 and C3 have proven to be powerful, durable, and provide excellent cleaning performance. There’s a switch on the floorhead to adjust the brush position. It’s best to have the brushes protruding for hard floors, and retracted for carpeted areas or delicate floors prone to scuffs. Aside from specific features, we found the C3 to be easy to manoeuvre around the home. It’s also easy to adjust the height of the telescopic tube, which is great for getting rid of cobwebs or if different members of the family will be using it. Filtration Straight out of the box and the C3 Powerline feels like a cleaner that is ready for use and abuse. It’s solid, fairly weighty at over 7kg with hose and head, and the metal tubes look set for the business of serious cleaning. The tubes are telescopic with a firm feeling clip and notched ratchet system, offering a wide range of heights for user-comfort at floor level or extended reach for ceilings. The hose is long and flexible with a curved handle and suction release slider. C3 Complete Total Solution PowerLine– This model comes with a variety of extra features,, including a HEPA AirClean filter, turbo brush, and Parquet Twister for delicate hard floors.The C3 has a “Single Touch” cord rewind function. This is one of our favourite extra features of the Miele. Emptying is as simple as removing the sealed bag and putting it into the bin. There’s even a colour-coded system inside the vac to make it easier to insert the correct dust bag.

C2 Complete Cat & Dog PowerLine – As the name suggests, this model includes a turbo brush for removing pet hair. It also has an anti-odour filter. The Miele Calima comes with the STB 305-3 Turbobrush. It is activated by the suction of the machine, and its rotating roller brush loosens the dirt and sweeps up fluff and hair. While these three accessories are fairly standard for modern vacuum cleaners, they are useful for cleaning skirting boards, car interiors, and staircases. It’s great that you can change the angle of the dusting brush too, as this makes it easier to clean awkward spots. So, what makes this Miele vacuum cleaner stand out from the crowd? And is it a worthwhile investment compared with other C3 vacuums? Keep reading our Miele Complete C3 Pure Power review to find out.
