Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner

As a single guy, I had a pretty simple life. I did cleaning chores but usually at my spare time. Vacuum cleaners was just not my thing back then especially because I just wasn't lucky with getting the good ones. Fast forward to four years ago and I got married. I had to become responsible for keeping the home clean. Again we agreed to try out some vacuum cleaners. We got lucky this time as the vacuum has a crazy suction power. Just after about two years of use, the performance began to decrease until it just became useless. We got ourselves a pet, including the mess for the kids and we knew we needed a vacuum cleaner with excellent performance and suction power.

I have heard of Miele in the past, so when I saw them again during my research, it was one of the manufacturers I penned down. My wife's mom then decided to give us an amazing gift for Christmas. Well I'm not too sure if it was just a coincidence or she noticed our home was in dire need of it. Whatever the case, that was how the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner found its way into our home. To be honest, we somehow felt we would still purchase our vacuum cleaner overtime and managed my mother-in-law's gift for a few month. Reluctantly I got it assembled and it took me less than 20 minutes. This may not seem much to most people but I'm not a DIY type of guy. I would rather pay someone for it.

First thing I noticed about the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner, minus the fact that I assembled an something in that short time, was its light weight. I had to refer back to confirm if indeed it was supposed to weigh 13 pounds. Ok maybe I've been away from the vacuum cleaner world for too long but this vacuum cleaner is damn light weighted. I'm not the guy that gets surprised that much but when we used it to clean the carpet, my mouth was literarily agap in shock. The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner suction power is out of this world! So after using this product for over two years, I decided I just can't keep this to myself; I got to tell every guy like me that there's hope for us, with regards to cleaning. So now you may be wondering what's all the fuss about with this product. Don't let me keep you waiting...

Here we are going to be looking at some of its features and what set it apart from the others.

Design

The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner comes with a product dimension of 9.4 x 22.7 x 15.2 inches. A telescopic wand made from stainless steel allows for reach to areas beyond arm length. It also comes with a six stage adjustable suction.

Attachments

The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner comes with three main accessories. These are the floor brush for cleaning and dusting the floor, the dust brush that aids in cleaning and eliminating dust particles, and the upholstery brush which is used for cleaning upholstered furniture. All of these attachments are held in place by a VarioClip.

FiberTeQ Technology

This is one of the classic features of the Miele. The FiberTeQ allows for switching from one cleaning mode to the other with just a flip of a switch. This ensures perfect cleaning from bare-floor to carpet. An amazing thing about this feature is the ease with which the switch is made to function. As long as you remember to switch back to floor mode once your are leaving the carpet.

Quiet

If there's one thing vacuum cleaners have a reputation for, it has to be their noisy operations. The last one we had always sent our pet running out of the room like a scared child. Surprisingly, I noticed she lays undisturbed even after I put on the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner. Took me a while to notice this too but when I did, it finally struck me that it really does have a quiet operation.

Suction Power

I'm really going to try my best and not be biased about this. As earlier stated, the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner comes with a six stage adjustable suction power. The basic idea is to have varied suction power on different cleaning surfaces. Even at half the full suction power, this vacuum cleaner can still suck pretty much all it does at full power. In simpler terms; the suction power is crazy! The adjusting knob has pictorial descriptions to tell what kind of cleaning surface each of the six stages is ideally designed for. To avoid bending down all the time to adjust the suction power control, there's a vent on the handle that can easily be accessed to control the suction power. This way, you won't have to pause and bend down every time you need to change suction power.

Navigation and Maneuverability

The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner has three wheel casters and all three are able to rotate a full 360°. This means the vacuum cleaner can easily be maneuvered on any floor surface. Each of these wheel is made from rubber material, making it easy to pull and drag. With it's lightweight and easy maneuverability, navigating this vacuum cleaner on large or tight floor space would be a walk in the park.

Weight and Size

There is no doubt that the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner is a lightweight canister vacuum cleaner. Weighing in at just 13 pounds, it can be used by a teen conveniently. I guess I didn't mention it earlier but my wife hated to vacuum the house and for some strange reasons, always found a way to get me to do it. After receiving this gift from her mom, my wife now takes vacuuming as a chore to kill time. Thank you Miele! The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner is also so compact it can fit into the smallest closet and stay undisturbed.

Cleaning Radius

The Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner gives a cleaning radius of 29.5 feet floor coverage. This means you can easily cover a whole lot of floor space in few minutes. This no doubt, reduces the possibility of fatigue and back aches. Combined with an impressive suction power, this vacuum cleaner is simply just a dream come through.

Price

I would be the last person on earth to have considered buying a vacuum cleaner at this price. As far as i was concerned, all vacuum cleaners were basically the same. It was after my wife and I have seen the cleaning power of the Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner that I decided to go check the price. My mother-in-law must have really loved me much more than I realized. Would I be willing to spend that much on a vacuum cleaner next time? Absolutely yes! But only after this vacuum has given me all of its service life.

Somehow after all this time, my wife and I have forgotten about getting another vacuum cleaner to replace her mom's gift. I guess we both know there will be little improvement on performance and suction power, if it even exists. If you are having issues gett your carpets or home in general clean, this Miele S2121 Olympus Canister Vacuum Cleaner was manufactured just for you.

The cord length is a bit too short especially if one is above 6 feet. This doesn't give enough ample moving space for the vacuum cleaner. The same can be said of the hose too. It's short and doesn't give plenty of room for effective navigation.

Conclusion
