Miele TRIFlex HX2 PRO vacuum Review

[@alexvega7527]

I have a HX1 pro with the dual batteries . It’s a nice looking machine but I have a corgi . He sheds a lot . The bin is difficult to clean all the time . I know Miele recommends empty and clean every three months but I like to prevent dog odors in my machines so I like to clean them up after every use . I bought a Tineco S15 pro and I couldn’t be happier .The filter is a cloth one you can vacuum off with your big vacuum . It’s much less tedious to clean .

I really wanted to love this product but I'm crossing my fingers for a bagged cordless. Maybe one day. As a genuine HATER of Dyson cordless (I've had a horrendous ownership experience with a flagship Gen5Detect), I am loving my Miele C3 with a bag. The bag makes everything so damn convenient and clean. No faffing about. Replace the thing every 6 weeks or so and voila. Takes 30 seconds.

Tested out both the HX2 Pro and Dyson V10 Absolute. Ended up getting HX2 Pro ($Au300 off RRP)...., so much higher build quality, suction felt close to the same when testing in the store carpet sample with maybe Miele a little stronger, Love the barrel/motor down low as it's so much more comfortable to use than up the top, the V10 was heaps noisier (I reckon over 50% more db) and the plastics felt so much more cheaper in the chassis and parts compared with HX2 Pro. I have no prob's with cleaning as I use an air gun on the compressor to quickly clean the filter and bin after emptying which makes it so much quicker (less than 1 minute to do). The only shortfall with HX2 would be the smaller dust bin size compared to the V10. A big winner for us with HX2 was the 2nd battery and charging dock in the kit which is essential with a stick vac.

All that faffing about with emptying, cleaning the filter and exposing yourself to all the dust and allergens really kills this vacuum. It's a shame because I love that you can put the motor/dustbin etc further down so it's almost like a small upright form factor. To me that is way preferable to the stick layout where you're bearing all that weight at the top. Looks nicer, easier to handle etc...Miele got that design element right but the entire dust collection methodology needs a complete redesign.

Thanks for your review. I was thinking to sell my Dyson V12 Slim and replace it with the Miele Triflex HX2. But after your honest experience, I will keep my Dyson and very disappointed about the Miele.

Got a Miele dishwasher, washer/dryer and so guess what my next purchase is this HX2 PRO, you buy this brand for build, quality & performance 😊👍

[@mohamedsabry4411]

Miele the best one I have one it’s very nice I can’t find something like that in the market it’s hard work compare the other they are number one

[@lexieflippence6953]

Well that sux cause I just ordered one .. I’m not actually a lover of Dyson so hopefully I won’t mind emptying and cleaning the filter everytime

[@dawoodismail3573]

Thanks Great review very honest

Mine stops every time I get to the carpet.

I'm currently choosing between Dyson Gen5Detect and Miele Triflex HX2 pro. What do you think about the easiness of movement between the Dyson and Miele cordless vaccums in general? Isn't Miele a lot easier to vaccum? Although after this video I think I've made my mind to choose Dyson, but it's still interesting to know what you think since you've tried both of the firms.

[@Joelyabbadoo]

I would go with the Dyson.

[@scind2585]

Dyson reliability is poor.

[@familievanrosendaal3966]

same feeling about reliability of the Dyson is poor! @@scind2585

[@laurenlee8849]

Which one did you choose?

[@margaretx582]

I find it difficult to unscrew the dust compartment. Would it be ok to put some Vaseline or similar on it to make it easier to unscrew? and the same with the joints while it is brand new?

[@Joelyabbadoo]

I wouldn't personally. As that will only attract dust to stick on the Vaseline and you'll end up with clumps of grease everywhere.

[@cratra]

It's sort of like a child lock you have to push down and turn to release.

[@mohamedsabry4411]

They are amazing very good quality

[@janbettridge9825]

I'm very disappointed with my Miele Triflex HX2 Pro, which I paid a lot of money for. The fine dust filter is totally impossible for me to remove for cleaning and I have to enlist the help a male (who is much stronger to remove it)...and even then if was extremely difficult to remove. Very poor design for the price paid for this cleaner. And now, the roller brush has ceased to rotate! The cleaner is only 12 months old. I wish I had purchased a Dyson.

[@Joelyabbadoo]

Yea it's a shame because they did some things well. But I agree, for the money it's not as good and user friendly as it should be. At the moment the dyson is the better choice.

[@Larss70]

Miele has 5 years warranty/ 7 on motor .. Dyson only 1 year.... I'd rather empty dust bin more often then dealing with Dyson

[@minguyen-rl7sn]

Same here. Its so poorly engineered. Frustrating.

[@minguyen-rl7sn]

I Miele product. The c3 cat dog powerline is awesome, love it. But this POS here? Don’t buy it. The dust filter is extremely difficult to remove. Mine started to leak vacuum after just a couple of months. Its underpowered. Its just a really poorly engineered/designed/made POS.

[@billceve9830]

I hope all you people realize this is ridiculous to have to deal with all the cleaning of the "filter". All the shit and allergies go right into your face and nose while cleaning it.. When you have a bagged unit, everything is filtered perfectly and the bag contains all the shit. These piece of shit cordless, bagless crap are ridiculous....

[@Filius_Magnificus]

honest. :)
