Exactly what I meant, knowing how loathe people are to do routine maintenance let’s be honest, most Dysons operate within their marketing specifications for a few months and after that they are on a downwards trajectory.

Miele is one of the brands I respect, mostly because of the way their products are tested. I remember a video from back in the day that showed a testing rig that essentially threw their test subject down a flight of stairs multiple times. Turns out there is a statistical average number of times a vacuum will fall down a flight of stairs and they test that their vacuums still function after exceeding that average.

Having sold them in a previous life, marketing and hype.

We got a lot of people who would “upgrade” from a Miele vacuum because they wanted to stop buying bags, then see them a few months later buying bags for their Mieles.

Sorry to all the people who like them, but bagless vacuums leak sooner or later and say what you will about upright vacuums, you just can’t reach as many spots as a low profile head on a pole.
