MIELE BLIZZARD CX1 (CAT & DOG) VACUUM CLEANER - PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION, TEST AND REVIEW

Welcome to Richo Reviews!
Today I gave my brand new Miele Blizzard CX1 vacuum cleaner a test run..
For a month I was tossing up between the Miele and Dyson vacuum cleaners suited for pets...
After much thought and research, I ended up buying a "Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless" vacuum cleaner based on all I had read and seen online...
This video is a product demonstration, test and review of the unit..
Please feel free to ask any questions, or write any comments below...
Purchase price was $699 AUD (on special).

I'm about to buy one today from Havery Normans Bathurst 5 years on and it's still $699 au and that's on sale

[@lawrencestroud7927]

I just bought this vacuum. It's a beast. But you are very correct about that flimsy clip for the waste. I just vacuumed the carpet and was able to admire all the dirt it picked up. As it's now sitting on a heap on my clean carpet after falling out...

[@chiwichihiro]

Muchas gracias por tu demostración. La acabo de comprar!

[@user-fg9zt7ux5b]

Absolutely love this item🌼 It’s super quiet, suction...let me say, I was embarrassed after seeing the tank and how much I vacuumed up (when I vacuum every day)

[@liammuhammad1980]

you all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost the password. I love any assistance you can give me!

@Liam Muhammad Instablaster =)

[@liammuhammad1980]

@Ledger Oliver I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@liammuhammad1980]

@Ledger Oliver it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much you really help me out !

[@ledgeroliver4988]

@Liam Muhammad No problem :)

[@deear1085]

Very good and usefull review!

[@Cleaning_Hero]

Has it developed an odor from the pet fur or has washing the “Gore” filter kept it smelling fresh? Have you noticed a drop in suction? That’s what’s held me back from buying it and those are historically consistent bagless-vac flaws. I love to see what my machine has picked up, and this model looks great! But I also know changing a bag and being able to replace the HEPA filter will resolve smelly exhaust air or loss in suction/air flow.

[@beri232]

My family has a Rainbow vac. Not sure if you're familiar with them but basically you fill a canister with water and that water acts as the filter and catches absolutely everything. Although it works extremely well.... it's a pain in the ass because you need to disassemble it, fill a canister with water, reassemble it, vacuum then disassemble, dump the filthy water in the toilet while making somewhat of a mess and then reassemble before putting the vacuum away..... oh yeah, plus it does not have a cord retractor. We got rid of our old canister vac 20 years ago because when we turned it on, the thing would blow dust at start up from the filter or whatever. Does this vacuum catch all the dust or does it blow it about while it's running?

[@garyreid9842]

What is the results on Hard floor , Tiles , Timber etc using the standard floor tool. Was a little disappointed you didn't demonstrate this . Does the turbo head allow fairly easy access to remove the brush bar to get serious tangle s cleaned away ? I was looking at replacing my old Dyson DC17 with a new Dyson Animal Big Ball but have read heaps of dissatisfied reviews on them. The Miele looks solid and very powerful in comparison. We have s Ragdoll Cat who leaves plenty of fur around on our carpets and hard surfaces so looking at a better option.

[@braydencordrey8544]

Looking great

[@justme7920]

Can you use the hose with comfort handle on a c3 or they are not interchangeable?

[@66NobodyPerfect66]

Good video 👍

[@nydiajohnson8437]

thank you for the video. you used very convincing tests to demonstrate quality of cleaning. the views of the floor before and after were out of focus for a good part of it. going more slowly over rug with the camera.

[@krittimaklangwang7677]

Thanks a Lot

[@saltan44]

Good job

[@richoreviews2456]

Thanks! :)

[@helensmith9799]

What does it mean when vac stops..and the orange compact light comes on

[@maverickcoolboy]

GJ!

[@richoreviews2456]

TY! :)

[@Miss-Laine]

Oh no... :( You didn’t do testing on hardwood floors? How come? I have no carpets in the house

[@brittanyfh13]

Still a good vaccume after this long? Im trying to decide between this and the miele c3 cat and dog

[@richoreviews2456]

Yeah it's still good. Some small issues, like the bagless dust bin clip. But overall i am happy with it. It is robust and has great suction!

[@sileahcimmasrs6882]

Bought my mother the C3 Cat and dog powerline today as a birthday present, works like a charm!

[@gigracer]

Does this have the motorised power head, or the air-driven one? I've found the air-driven ones are next to useless when contending with husky moulting.

[@susannadalini210]

i have huskies too and am looking at which vacuum cleaner is best suited to picking up the hair.

[@Blackout720]

I've just bought a second hand model, 1200W. Sadly it got a doggy smell. I'm not so sure if it's got more power than 890W bagged Miele though.

[@dzhanetpamuk9426]

I was really interested from Miele, but 550-890 watts are not adequate at all. And it is annoying when they trying to persuade us as the vacuuming is the same as has 1200 watts. Really. Thanks for the video dude. It was helpful. I watched a video where they hovering rise and flour from hard flour by means of 2000 watts Miele, wow that is impressive, I am speechless,

[@brookellis2696]

Can you turn the power head off?

[@richoreviews2456]

No, unfortunately. However you can simply remove and change attachments. Also, ive realised that its more a "turbo brush" (relying on the suction to spin - not power). This gets annoying when vacuuming lounges/sofas... Ive had dyson before and the power head is better on that..

[@yannih1782]

I can help with the Dyson animal big ball. Not good! We have a long haired dog and the head clogs in no time with suction being average at best when this happens. Super expensive and just not good enough Dyson. Miele will be my next try...

[@raymondplouffe9521]

Why would the CX1 Blizzard be better than a Dyson?

[@richoreviews2456]

Better suction, a little bit more solid/robust and not as noisy (deeper sound - not as whiney)... that said, its not perfect. Im tempted to buy a new dyson in the future and compare.. just dont have the $$

[@asherwiseman6167]

The flex hose is too short and the brush is attached to the handle so if you wanted to do curtains then you have to pick up the vacuum and stand on something. Not ideal

[@mbplove]

Is this an 890W version?

[@DieKampfgurke94]

yes

[@Bob22.09]

I dont think they produce any longer higher power models

[@helensmith9799]

Only used it twice

[@montbash4816]

Do you think Dyson or Miele better

[@urizerqelezski2692]

Miele is far superior to Dyson.

[@richoreviews2456]

I have had Dyson before, and THIS Miele one is LOTS better... It comes down to personal choice, but for me I think Miele outperforms Dyson on Power/Suction (Especially for pet hair)

[@farnaznassirbaki3227]

Miele .I have both and I can say miele is perfect

[@michel7549]

Having two dogs and after my Dyson broke I decided to switch to Miele cats & dogs, that has been definitevely a good move

[@diehard200]

What size are your feet?

[@KischteBier]

wow, it picked up dust you had put on the carpet, that's impressive.

[@Coombi93]

if you've never owned a miele you wouldnt know how exciting it is to do this. Could suck the tiles off the floor.

[@horvoje_]

You forgot to show how one can empty trash can.

[@richoreviews2456]

True!! I will post an update of this Vacuum soon, and will remember to add that. Thanks for the feedback.

[@daisy-hm8ms]

unfortunetly not good for long hair, i have shih tzu and 3 girls....brush blocked every few minutes, very hard to clean and removed hair form the brush

[@yannih1782]

Ah, that was my question so thanks. Same with the Dyson. Problem is I can see no alternatives...

[@MarcelloTheBandit]

@@yannih1782 Do you have the option for a power head in your country? I know the SEB 228 and SEB 236 heads have an easier way to get the hair out at least. If you can find a Blizzard with even the small powerhead, you could upgrade to one of those.

[@Bob22.09]

The motor is too weak... I preferred the 2200w one

[@vadik1859]

Please tell Mark what vacuum cleaner you bought?

[@zodiark2456]

wattage does not equal suction power

[@diehard200]

Pretty feet

[@voldemary958]

This is not cleaner. More accurately this is muck. Very possibly the worst looking thing I've ever seen.

[@alexgolshani179]

Spent almost $800 on this piece of garbage a few years back and I have to remove the hair every single time after vaccuming, even though I don't have any pets at home. Best part is that I got lazy and didn't clean it for a few times and all the plastic joints got melted! ⚠️⚠️ If you are considering to get one of these vaccume cleaners from Miele, please think twice. ⚠️⚠️
