Advantages of the Miele Solaris S514

Disadvantages of the Miele Solaris S514

  1. All controls are on the canister and there are no fingertip controls as in some other Miele Vacuum cleaners.
  2. Because of the lightweight design and the inclusion of accessories on board the vacuum, there is little room left for a big vacuum bag so the one in the Solaris is fairly small and needs to be changed every two to three weeks.
  3. The accessories with this vacuum cleaner are not perfect for removing pet hair from upholstery and it may be necessary to purchase a separate hand brush attachment.
