  Less Sneezing More Breathing
Reviewed by: Sneeze free in Scranton from
From all that I read this vacuum was the best bang for my buck, so after my girlfriend moved in, I purchased the Callisto along with an air purifier she has bad allergies and I really liked the HEPA with this vacuum. Things have went off without a hitch! I'm happy with the vacuum and air purifier, and my girlfriend hasn't had any issues with her allergies. Now if I can only talk her into trading in her cat for a dog, we'd be set!

Miele Callisto
S5280 Vacuum Cleaners
The Callisto is the most popular of all of Miele’s canister vacuums. It offers the conveniences and the basic advancements of the S5 Galaxy series with a few notable improvements. Recipient of the Consumers Digest Best Buy label, the Callisto represents an excellent blend of outstanding value and price.
What I like about the Callisto
What separates the Callisto from the entry level Pisces is quite simply, upgrades. With the Callisto, an electric powered SEB 217-3 Powerbrush comes standard. This is a significant improvement over the air driven brush. In addition to this, the hose that comes standard with the Callisto is powered. This gives you a wider range of more versatile attachments you can use with this model.
When I ran this model through tests similar to those used on the Pisces, I found for thicker carpet the SEB217-3 Powerbrush was better at extracting pet hair from thicker carpet. In previous tests, I could notice the strain as the air driven brushed bogged down on more dense carpet. In contrast, the electrically powered brush cleaned our high pile carpet much easier.
The last noticeable upgrade with the Callisto is the handle. In lieu of the standard handle, the Callisto is equipped with a deluxe handle. The design fits better in your hand and puts less strain on your wrist while you vacuum. Again, with Miele, sometimes it is all about the little things. A more comfortably designed handle may not seem like the most important feature, but when you have to vacuum the first and second floors of a fully carpeted house, little conveniences make a big difference.
The Callisto comes standard with Miele’s Active HEPA filtration, a definite plus for allergy and asthma sufferers. This vacuum collects dirt, dust and pet hair from the floors without polluting the air in your home. The Generally Activated Charcoal reduces odors and traps some chemicals.
In addition, the Callisto comes standard with all the features you normally find on a Miele canister, quiet operation, 7 year warranty on the motor, self-winding cord, easy movement, and self-sealing bags.
What I do not like about the Callisto
The Callisto is a powered unit, which means it has electric features from the powerbrush to the vacuum itself. To connect the hose to the vacuum is a minor inconvenience. There is a small, gray, plastic tab on the body of the vacuum that must be removed before you can attach the hose. The end of a nail file or very fine-tipped, flat head screwdriver will work. Without removing the cap, you may be left scratching your head as to how the hose could actually attach to the vacuum.
Despite a standard HEPA filter, the Callisto does not come with a filter change indicator. A bag change indicator comes standard with all Miele canister vacuums, but a good rule of thumb for the HEPA filter is to replace it once a year.
For those concerned with not only cleaning their floors but also the quality of the air inside their homes, the Callisto offers the best on both counts. For both hard and carpeted surfaces the Callisto will get the job done, and the electric powerbrush and deluxe handle are just two additional features that help make this unit one of Miele’s most popular choices.
