Know before you buy
Yes, the vacuum features an Electrobrush floorhead designed to handle both surfaces. It also includes automatic height adjustment, which allows the brush roll to transition seamlessly between different carpet piles and smooth flooring without manual intervention.
This model is highly effective for allergy sufferers because it uses a HEPA AirClean filter. This system captures fine dust and allergens, ensuring that the air exhausted from the vacuum is cleaner than the air in the room.
The Miele Dynamic U1 FreshAir offers a generous 54-foot operating radius, supported by a 46-foot power cord. This allows you to clean large rooms or multiple areas without needing to stop and switch power sources frequently.
Yes, it is equipped with SwivelNeck™ Technology, which allows the vacuum head to pivot independently from the main body. This makes it significantly easier to steer around corners, chair legs, and other household obstacles.
This is a bagged vacuum that uses Miele’s 6L AirClean 3D Efficiency dustbags. The bags are designed to be self-sealing, which prevents dust from escaping during disposal, and they provide a large capacity so you don't have to change them as often.
Yes, the vacuum comes with three onboard accessories stored directly on the unit. This design ensures your upholstery tool, crevice nozzle, and dusting brush are always within reach when you need to switch tasks.
