Ready to rev up your surface appeal? Here are 7 ways that the versatile Miele barrel vacuum range from Miele Australia sets you up for easier all-round cleans.
#1 Easier to use
“Miele’s suction control is a big win for time-poor households because it lets you adjust the power to suit the job with a simple turn of a dial or tap of your foot,” says Nick. “No bending down every time you move from the rug to the curtains!” How? Depending on the model, simply use the multi-stage rotary dial or the foot-operated plus/minus switches to dial the power up or down as you go. How smart is that!
#2 Easier all-surface cleaning
With multi-stage suction control, you can set the right power for curtains, rugs, carpets and hard floors without stopping your clean. Delicate fabrics get a gentle touch, while high-traffic carpets get the deeper clean they need. That means you can move from the lounge room rug to the kitchen tiles to the bedroom curtains in one smooth run, simply adjusting the power as you go.
#3 Easier pet hair removal
Pet owners will be high-fiving the Miele barrel vacuum range. With strong suction you can adjust to suit the surface, it effortlessly lifts hair, threads and fluff from carpets, rugs and hard floors. Selected models also come with the Miele TurboTeQ brush, which removes embedded pet hair from short-pile carpets and even hard floors without getting stuck to the surface… so you can finally win the fight against fur-covered floors.
#4 Easier odour control
Tired of lingering smells hanging around after the weekly blitz? The Miele Active AirClean filter uses active charcoal to filter unpleasant odours effectively. So instead of stirring up stale smells as you go, you can enjoy a fresher feel in every room once the vacuuming is done.
#5 Easier emptying
Changing the bag on a Miele vacuum couldn’t be easier! The ComfortFit system makes it particularly easy to insert vacuum cleaner bags, while the secure closure ensures no dust escapes, so the bag can be changed in a particularly hygienic manner. Prefer bagless? Miele’s bagless barrel models use Vortex technology for high-airflow separation.
FAQs
Yes. With strong suction you can adjust to suit the surface, Miele barrel vacuums make light work of pet hair on carpets, rugs and hard floors, so fur-covered floors are easier to keep on top of.
It comes down to how you like to empty. Bagged models use self-sealing dustbags, so dust stays sealed inside when you change the bag. Bagless models let you empty the dust container straight into the bin, with no bags necessary.
Match the power to the surface. Use a lower setting for delicate items like curtains and rugs, and turn it up for carpets and high-traffic areas.
