I have a Miele C3 and it is FANTASTIC.
Seconded. Mine is also yellow like C3PO
This is what the reddit vacuum guy recommended lots before he retired. I still want one.
Seconding Miele, but I've heard there are some that are made in China and that it's worth paying the premium to get one that's made in Germany.
Ours is still going strong after a decade.
Bagged vacuums are the way to go. They have better filtration and vacuum power, they're less messy, easier to clean and maintain, and you can get compatible bags for cheap.
Asked a vacuum repair person after the Hoover died which one was the best. He recommended Miele. First one (canary yellow canister) lasted 18 years. Second one (green canister) is 5 years old and still going strong. Both with HEPA filters. Damn near pulls up the floorboards.
