After years of rumors, Miele has developed an upright vacuum cleaner that is uniquely their own. The new Miele
upright vacuums borrow many of the signature features of their canister vacuum cleaners and redesign them to fit this upright style vacuum. In this line,
the S7 Series, there are six HEPA vacuum cleaners that can be roughly split into two groups.
The Miele Tango and
Miele Bolero lead the pack and display the very best that Miele has to offer. The Miele Calypso, Salsa, and Jazz
come next and are virtually identical to each other. The only significant difference between these three is their color. The most
recent addition to the Miele uprights is the Miele Twist.
Similar to the Calypso, Salsa and Jazz upright vacuum cleaners, the Twist is the most economical Miele upright vacuum cleaner but lacks
standard HEPA filtration and a headlamp.
The chart below is a breakdown of many of the common features of each of these vacuums. For further information feel free to browse our
site or contact one of our Miele vacuum experts who would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

The Miele S7 Series provides an excellent balance of practical features and cutting edge innovation. When comparing the S7 series
uprights to traditional uprights, several things stand out. First is the profile of these vacuum cleaners. When lying
flat on the ground they are a mere six inches tall. This slim body design allows this upright to reach places that are usually reserved for
the wand of a canister vacuum. Reaching tighter spaces and vacuuming under heavy furniture are two areas where this new design works wonders.
Traditional uprights have long had a major drawback. Too often they are hard to
maneuver, particularly when attempting to turn.
Some have employed a "ball" style design to allow for easier movement, but Miele went in another direction. Just above the base is a pivot
point, and here the vertical section of the vacuum can swivel left and right. This motion aids when turning and makes it possible to vacuum
more tightly around furniture. Making the miele uprights less likely to tip, this design allows for a lower center of gravity for the S7 vacuum cleaners.
Each model also features automatic height adjustment which makes going from low pile to high pile carpet a seamless transition.
When cleaning hard surfaces, Miele has designed the S7's with the ability to turn off the brush roll. On traditional vacuums, one motor
controls the entire unit, so when the vacuum is on, the brush roll is spinning. For those who have tried using an upright on smooth flooring
you know that the only thing the brush roll does is toss dirt and debris around the room. To address this Miele has installed two separate
motors. The powerful Vortex motor powers the unit and provides all the suction needed to tackle the toughest of jobs while a smaller, independent
motor runs the brush roll. So, should you need to clean smooth surface simply turn the brush roll off and proceed to vacuum smooth flooring
with straight suction.
Each of the S7 models come standard with HEPA filtration, except the
Miele Twist, and all offer exceptional
cleaning range and reach. With an extra long cord and longer reach hose, the Miele S7 Upright Vacuum Cleaners can cover a full 57
feet before having to change outlets. Other conveniences include the improved design, self-sealing bags, three onboard accessory brushes/tools,
7 year warranty and sealed system construction.
