Miele Triflex HX2 First Test!

[@vacuumsensation]

The Miele, I like it 🤗 the vacuum performed good. I was a little disappointed with the filter. 😕

[@VacMaster1991]

Same here. The whole bin is awful to deal with. I'm not sure if I'm keeping this considering how bad the bin is.

Lovely comparison! 🌟

I still don't know why your videos are not recommended to me (not even notifs and I'm subscribed) I'm thrilled to see you testing it as this one is quite a sympathetic machine to me. Shame how the filter is kinda old fashioned.

@@匿名的-1 the design is cool. But I wish it performed better.

@@VacMaster1991 Yea, fair. Miele is not good with bagless systems and the performance is not the best either sadly, but Dysons wouldn't work on my carpet.

[@VacMaster1991]

Any dyson? What type of carpet do you have?

[@匿名的-1]

@@VacMaster1991 There's a british guy with similarly problematic carpets, for him pretty much all dyson's stall. I might just get some Miele or Sebo or Lindhaus with a powerhead at this point, cuz those carpets are hard to clean.

[@VacMaster1991]

Ahh. I hate carpet, that's so thick it can't be vacuumed.

[@mikek8720]

How well does the filter cleaning feature work. I think there's something you twist and it clicks the pleats of the filter to release the dust? I'm not a fan of this bin and filter design though, I really think Miele could do much better.

[@VacMaster1991]

It doesn't work. The mesh prevents the dust from falling out completely. Then when you turn the vacuum on again it sucks the dirt back in the filter

[@MarkAgueVacuums]

I actually really like this filter setup, I’d rather dust off a filter once or twice a month rather than tear down a cyclone pack.

[@VacMaster1991]

@MarkAgueVacuums the filter basically needs cleaning after each use. They should add some sort of cyclone. Without one, it cloggs too quickly. There's no reason to tear down a cyclone pack. They clean themselves. Use an air compressor or leaf blower if you want.

[@ethandonivan5175]

When used properly the cyclone packs don't need disassembly for many years.

[@VacMaster1991]

Based off fixing dozens of vacuums, a leaf blower works great at cleaning cyclones with no disassembly required.

[@asif_md]

If the filter is dusty/dirty - isn't that a good thing? It stopped those smaller particles returning back into the air?

[@VacMaster1991]

A filter dirty after one use is not good. A vacuum should have a multi stage cyclonic separation system to trap fine dirt before it cloggs the filter. This vacuum is lacking that. So its filter takes the brunt of all the fine dust. That's why I returned it. Definitely not worth the price.

@@VacMaster1991 Ohhh - thank you sir!

[@VacMaster1991]

No problem. It's what I do
