Miele Ecoteq Plus Floorhead
Rosicler Kleckner
Does the standard floorhead have a little thingy on it where you can switch from hard floor to carpet? I guess it must do but wanted to check. I am going to buy a Miele vacuum cleaner and trying to choose one. Much as I like the idea of having separate, specialised heads for hard floors and carpets, it's just occurred to me that it will probably be irritating to have to switch between heads in rooms where we have hard floors with rugs on!
When I bought my miele the man in the shop said the more expensive models are basically the same hoover but with extra options - like electric selection instead of twisting a dial type of thing.
I've got 2 different heads but use the power brush head thing (for carpets) on all the floors - solid oak, laminate, carpet, floor tiles
My normal head has a thing you press to switch from carpet tp hard floor. I also hvae the turbo brush head separate, which you can use on both types of floor withiut having to do anything to it. I have a cat and dog.
My miele has a switch on the normal head, yes.
I have just had to take it apart (owing to some dodgy oily substance on the floor that got into the brushes, necessitating serious washing) and found the most amazing layer of fluff in there! Hoping it works a lot better (and the switch is easier to operate) now that I've cleaned it out!
Aha, very interested to read that you can use a turbobrush on hard floors too!
The one I want comes with standard, switchable head, parquet floor and turbobrush carpet one. I was assuming I'd use the parquet for the parquet and the carpet for the carpet, as that's what both are designed for, but maybe I'd just use the standard one on everything, so as to save changing heads all the time.
I dont think the turbobrush is supposed to be used on hard floors. The miele website says it is for 'textile floor coverings' i.e. carpets. I like the parquet head for the hard floors in the house as it can twist about and is narrower than the standard brush heads and can get into smaller spaces
Pulling the cleaner around, the weight and size become irrelevant thanks to four Dynamic Drive casters. These combine 360-degree rotation with air-filled open rubber tyres, giving the cleaner super-smooth movement even over rough surfaces such as riven floor tiles.
The Miele Blizzard CX1 s real business filter is huge, housed in its own separate dust bin and has a self-cleaning function. Made by Gore (the company famous for Gore-Tex), the CleanStream filter is a folded fibrous canister with a row of prongs on the inside that rotate to agitate and flick dust out of the filter into the base of its bin.
The Miele Blizzard CX1 automatically detects when this filter is becoming blocked and pauses the vacuuming power for 20 seconds while it rotates the prongs to clear the filter. You can also initiate automatic filter cleaning by using the Comfort Clean button on the cleaner control panel at any time.
Powered by a long-life replaceable button battery, the remote buttons offer thumb control on/off and /- for power level. With the cleaner switched on, the last-used power level indicator pulses slowly until you press on/off on the handle. It starts slow and builds to that level. Up/down adjusts power level accordingly, and another press of the power button puts the Miele Blizzard CX1 into standby.
The flexible hose, handle, tubes and tools all clip together and unclip with the consummate ease of a very slick and well-designed product. The telescopic metal tubes are a fine piece of engineering, feeling solid in the hand and fitted with a simple collar that pushes up or down to unlock the telescopic action.
Always adjust the suction power to the floor surface. This makes the floorhead easy to move and enables optimum cleaning results. Graphic symbols for the various applications make it easy to choose the right performance level.
You also get a second, much smaller hard-floor head with rubber blades. Miele suggests this is better suited to floors with gaps and grooves, such as riven tiles and naked floorboards. The design concentrates the air-flow for deep-down cleaning.
A good-size dusting brush offers soft, natural bristles, and a small collar on the inside to stop them collapsing into the air-flow. This brush is integrated into the handle on some of the other Miele Blizzard CX1 variants, which would probably save it becoming lost at the back of the cupboard.
