Miele vs. Dyson: which vacuum is right for you?

Miele vs. Dyson: which vacuum is right for you?

VacuumW House |

When it comes to choosing a vacuum, two popular brands that often come up are Miele and Dyson. Both offer a range of high-quality vacuums with advanced features and strong suction power. So how do you decide which one is right for you?

Here are some key differences between Miele and Dyson vacuums:

  • Price: Miele vacuums tend to be more expensive than Dyson vacuums. However, Miele vacuums are known for their durability and longevity, so you may save money in the long run by not having to constantly replace your vacuum. Also the fact that they are made in Germany and that they get a 5 year warranty versus a 2 year Dyson warranty makes Miele very attractive to most people.
  • Suction power: Both Miele and Dyson vacuums have strong suction power, but Miele vacuums are known for their particularly powerful 1200 Watt motors and advanced filtration systems.
  • Filtration: Miele and Dyson both offer high-quality filtration systems that capture and trap dust, allergens, and other microscopic particles. However, Miele vacuums may be a better choice for allergy sufferers, as they are equipped with HEPA filters that capture 99.9% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. Basically, the air that leaves the vacuum is cleaner than the air inside the room. The same usually can not be said about most Dyson models.
  • Cordless options: Although Dyson has a wider range of cordless vacuums than Miele, and has been active in the cordless segment longer, Miele Cordless models give Dysons a run for their money. Miele models tend to be lighter, more manoeuvrable and much better quality. They also get a much better warranty.
  • Customer service: Both Miele and Dyson offer excellent customer service, However, Miele has over a 130 service centres across Canada which makes it much more accessible for service or warranty works. Dyson has one central service centre that caters to customers nationally.
Ultimately, the decision between Miele and Dyson will come down to your personal preferences and budget. Both brands offer high-quality vacuums with advanced features and strong suction power, so it's important to consider your specific cleaning needs and compare the different models available before making a decision.
