I generally agree with this statement. Been keeping an eye out for used older models but the deal was too good to pass up so I just went for it. Smdh, should’ve just waited lol

I’ve done all of this, still can’t figure it out. I’m a pretty hand person and an avid DIYer. Normally I’d just disassemble the whole thing but I feel for the price I paid for a brand new product, I shouldn’t have to do all that and waste all that time. Appreciate the info though! Once I do get a working one, I’ll keep all this in mind.

That brand is also the next highest recommended brand. Seems like Miele and Sebo are the best of the best. But unfortunately I’ll be waiting prolly until next Black Friday to make another purchase

They have no more in stock, so they claim. They were quick to offer a refund so either they do in fact have them but would rather not let it go for the sale price anymore or they actually don’t have them and a refund is in fact my only option.

I bought this one because it was amongst the top recommended vacuums, and I can afford it. I’m at a stage in life where I’m tired of buying the cheapest products which don’t last long and I’ll end up having to buy them again and again. I want BIFL things.

Didn’t even know there were Miele dealers lol… Whatever I do I need to do it quick because I’ve already started the return process, I have exactly 5 days to ship it or I’m stuck with it.

I haven’t checked the conversions but in the US, it was $900+ on sale… But for me, even $200 would be the most expensive I’d have paid for a vacuum.
