That isn't my experience. Bought two, one six years ago, one three years ago, both still work perfectly. Sold one of them recently for half what I paid for it.

First I’ve heard of Miele. I'll look into it, but the reason why I got Dysons in the first place was constantly hearing others rave about them.

On my second Dyson, not sure why I bought a second one. Thing is always getting jammed up with hair and needs complete disassembly to clean it out, and batteries will only last two years before needing replacement. All the joints are very loose as well now. Will be going with the Miele HX2 at some point soon which is actually cheaper than some of the Dyson.

From experience, the filtering cyclones in the mieles are quite a bit worse than the Dyson.

If you want a good and lasting vacuum, don't buy a cordless one. When looking at corded vacuums, miele is definitely one of the better options.

The cordless sticks, and stick vacuums in general are not built to be BIFL. Doesn't matter what brand you get.

Read the reviews. HX2 isn't that much better reviewed and it costs a hell of a lot more.
