We have checked out all the retailers of this model and at the end of this review detailed them all so you can be sure to get the best price in the UK market.
Carrying a vacuum cleaner around your house can be a real pain if it’s big and heavy. Thankfully that problem is a thing of a past. The C2 Powerline is light enough (4.8kg) to carry around your house and even up and down the stairs without too much of a struggle. This helps you to clean more parts of your house without the dread, and reduces fatigue along the way.
It has a 10-metre operating radius and a compact telescopic tube. The telescopic tube is adjustable to suit all users. It also has an XXL Handle making it comfortable to use.
The Miele C2 Powerline Cylinder Vacuum features a unique 11-stage filtration system. It has an Air Clean filter which adds to the effectiveness of the vacuum cleaner. Match this filtration system with the Hyclean dustbag and you’ll get a pretty decent dust emission rating B.
The Hyclean dustbag is self-closing to keep dirt and dust inside the bag when changing it over. After using the vacuum cleaner, you can use the one touch cable rewind which is a highly efficient way to finish your chores.

It’s is easy to pack away after using it, thanks to the one touch cable rewind feature. It also comes with a built in tool storage to save additional time when finished. Since it’s made by Miele, quality is assured. They claim that it can last up to 20 years.
With a warranty of 10 years (additional £50 is needed to avail this though), you are secured that whatever happens to your vacuum cleaner, Miele’s got your back.
Cons:
Vacuum cleaners with this much power tends to get a bit noisy. Everyone at home, and maybe even the people next door, will know that you are cleaning the house.
It’s a little bit gutsy on power consumption, however this can be forgiven for its power and capabilities.
Attractive good looks of this and many Miele models can be a negative for the modern tech savvy homeowners, however we prefer to call it classic and traditional with lots of style.
Finally the price could be a drawback for some . Priced at between £150-£200, some might consider this expensive, however compared to other UK vacuums brands such as Dyson, we think it’s worth every penny.

Hi,
What is the difference between Compete C2 Powerline and Complete C3 Powerline?
I saw that the mode selector is different and it seems that the C2 version is a kilo heavier, but cannot see any other meaningful difference, even when comparing the two on Miele’s web site.
Cheers!
