This review is from: Miele Olympus S2120 Canister Vacuum Cleaner (Kitchen)
I am not in love with this vacuum. I purchased it because I have back problems and it is lightweight. I also wanted a hepa filter. I have wood floors; no carpet. But now I'm sorry that I did; unfortunately I wanted to support my local business, and they have a no return policy. Before you buy, consider the pros & cons below.
Pros
lightweight
Suction is good
Effective Hepa filter (Consumer's reports)
The cord winds up nicely inside the machine
The swivel wheels make the canister easy to pull around without any dragging.
Cons
*I feel the combination rug/floor attachment would damage my floors...it's got wheels, a rubber blade, and hard nylon bristles. I usually use a brush attachment on my wood floors...well, Miele has two available...one around fifty dollars, the other around seventy. What a shock! I was able to find a generic brush for about twenty.
*My biggest gripe is the handle...it's hard, thick, long, with a pronounced curve. Even though I have large hands for a woman, I find it uncomfortable to hold. The angle is perfect if you are cleaning the floors, but very awkward if you are trying to clean say blinds or anything over three feet high. It forces you to bend the hose, which doesn't work too well because the hose length is five and one-half feet. So you have to keep up the pressure. You cannot connect attachments directly to the hose...you must attach them to the handle or to the end of the wand.
*Since the hose is rather short, it's a problem if say you want to vacuum out the car. Miele sells a car kit for about one hundred fifty dollars. You can also buy a substitute 10 foot hose...on this website at the time I am writing this it is one hundred dollars.
*The wand is sturdy metal and rather heavy. This is fine for cleaning the floors, but say if you want to clean something up high, the weight makes it awkward and uncomfortable for any length of time.
*The cord is too short.
To sum up, this is not a "total cleaning solution," unless of course you want to shell out more money for special attachments and then find the space to store them.
Update
To make this vacuum more useful, I purchased a generic 20-foot extension hose that attaches to the Miele handle (note: not the cannister, but the handle). For about fifty bucks, it came with a carrying bag, floor wand and brush, and other typical attachments. It's great because I can vacuum several rooms at once with the cannister staying in the kitchen. Also, I can easily vaccum stairs...just drag the hose around instead of the whole vacuum. I found this baby at an online store that specializes in central vacuum cleaners. It's made me much happier about my Miele purchase.
