When you first made the video about the kenmore 600, I said I would try it out for my cleaning company. I bought 2 of the vacuums to let everyone try it out. Months have passed by. At first, nobody liked that they had to drag it around, because they were used to the backpacks, but the 600 just does such a great job! Especially on carpet, our clients have noticed the difference as well. I wish Kenmore 600 was made into a backpack. It would be the perfect vacuum lol

Finally a real review instead of the AI generated garbage ones.

The Turbo versions are PASSIVELY powered heads driven by canister vacuum motor suction. If you wanted an entirely fair comparison, you'd have to move up to the cheapest option from Miele that also has an electrically powered brush head, which I believe is the C1 Cat and Dog.

Great video, excellent analysis.

Next time, try a Miele C1 Cat And Dog. I love mine.

Really good video!!! Very informative. Thanks!!!!

I like this approach a one to one between a full complete machine vs a more easy one. Same price but different manufacturer, quality no comments, thanks for this nice video. Miele it’s light but it’s not ok for carpets. Also thanks to show the stick vacuums that are not good in carpets, I mean you can clean with it but agree with you it can be better. So here it’s for cleaning servicing and Kenmore wins still it’s heavier (yes it matters) and the other it’s lighter. Just for cleaning Kenmore should be enough. Some day I will buy a Kenmore I saw this machines at other channel that no longer stream content but he use to show old Kenmore and I like it.

I've had Kenmore vacuums the past 20+ years, have cats, and a now GSD (and still two cats) for the past 8. They pick up dirt and hair incredibly well. I've had few issues with either Kenmore. Just bought new 400 series today for a good price. Had the Pop-n-Go in the past. Went with the cheaper model because on the old Pop-n-Go, the tools are interchangeable with the 400 series. I have all the tools as a back up. The Kenmore you have in the video has a newer, and different attachment system so I wouldn't be able to use my Pet Mate tool. You are totally right about bagless, the last vacuum I had was a Kenmore bagless and I did not like it, very messy to empty and its never emptied completely. I actually still have both vacuums and both still work well. My wife made be buy a new one because they start to smell after a while, especially the bagless one even though I cleaned the filter frequently. A tip about vacuuming carpeted stairs, use the Pet Mate. Small and compact and much easier to use than the power head.

Yay! Was hoping to see a video about Miele! I have the Classic C1 and I love it! I have a small house with no carpet so it is perfect for my needs. It's my primary vacuum (Sunday vacuuming) and I just purchased the Laresar Elite 3 for my quick mid-week vacuuming (replacing a cordless Electrolux that was slowly dying). Thanks so much for all the insight, I really enjoy your videos!

Well unlike kenmore, you can get mieles custom, so you can get turbo carpet head, power head, hard floor, c1 c2 c3, premiums low ends, kenmore is okay but I would prefer Miele

That Kenmore is an excellent budget canister. I prefer my Miele C1 Classic since I have all hard floors and back problems, so the lightweight setup is a blessing. Also, the Kenmore hose is not crush proof and will get destroyed in an instant the moment one of my not-so-careful family members handle it. (They have no appreciation for a vacuum)

I am disabled, so a non-negotiable for me is being able to power the unit from the handle. Otherwise, I am constantly walking back and forth to the canister every time I need to pause the unit. It is an invaluable feature if you are vacuuming up on a ladder (e.g., air vents) with the canister on the floor and out of arm’s reach. Kenmore was the only brand I could find with that feature unless I could afford the $1,500 price tag for the top-of-the-line Miele, which I could not. And that was 5+ years ago. No telling how much it would cost me now. 😕

Thanks for this video. Saved me money. I was going to buy the Milie but just bought the Kenmore

I get this question a bunch and think both types have their place. The Miele canisters are easier to service for sure and of better quality, but perhaps my most controversial opinion is that I think the new Kenmore power nozzles are better than the Miele power nozzles. The Kenmore nozzles clean just as well, are easier to service, and are incredibly reliable partly due to their simplicity.

We previously owned 2 high end Miele vacuums, and neither lasted more than 5 years battling fur from our 2 Samoyeds. The motor in the attachment head inevitably burnt out even though we frequently manually removed the fur from the agitator bristles. We gave up and replaced it with a Panasonic canister vacuum, which lasted about 7~8 years, but only cost a fraction of the $1k+ Miele. For the last 10 years, we've been using a Dyson Animal, and it has been a reliable powerhouse. However, it's now time for a new vacuum, and we'll probably try out this Kenmore.

I'm not sure if you going to read this but can you do a flour test by putting flour on the floor and covering it with a rug and see which vacuum can suck it up through the rug

can you do a Top Bagged Vaccums video?

When you said that the Miele has an adjustable power dial, I think you forgot about the power slider controller on the Kenmore.

I almost bought a Miele but the absence of the roller brush kept me at bay. This video made the decision for me. 600 arrives Wed. 😎

do you have a bissell powerforce helix?

The Miele is great if you mostly have hard floors and a few area rugs. If you have wall to wall carpets, a vacuum with a powered brush roll like the Kenmore will obviously be better. The Miele will definitely last way longer than the Kenmore regardless though.

They are both good for their respective price. My C1 homecare which was $799 is definitely going to last longer than the kenmore but for the kenmores price you cannot go wrong.

I have the Miele 3 that has a little more features and hid away storage and with the better head and with the cat dog brush it is very good. I also have the gen5 detect and still have my Dyson animal that still does a great job after 7 years! Yes I am a vacuum nut! I have a bissel pet upright and my Kirby. I little stick vac from the devil! And a few hand vacs. All of them have pros and cons. It’s a matter of what you have at home. I have half and half carpet and wood floors. I like them all depending on what I am doing. I need to stop buying vacs! lol 😆

This is the video I needed a few days ago!! 😭 I ended up spending more for the ultra plush version even though I hate the color (and love the blue!) and now as far as I can tell, the only difference is the led lights. ??? Bummer. I haven't even opened it yet so I may just return it for the 600 because while lights are nice, they're not that big of a deal. Any idea whether the maroon/burgundy ultra plush has anything else that may make it worth keeping? Thanks for the great video! Even if I did find it later than I would've liked!

I suggest comparing the 600 Series to a Miele that is comparable in features to the 600. The C1 vacs are not. They are not sealed, and they do not have a power nozzle. The comparable version is $900-$1100 more. The four main reasons I jumped for a Miele C3 is because I got a 10 year warranty on it, I really liked the solid build quality, it had a much better hard floor tool, the Miele HEPA filter capture particles much smaller than ordinary HEPA filters do. I also wanted it to be a fully sealed system, have the highest suction and airflow available in a canister. I was using my vac at the time for an hour every single day and that’s almost commercial-level use, so warranty and build quality were paramount. The 600 Series is close in suction, features, and carpet cleaning performance. What I don’t like about the C3: the hose doesn’t swivel 360 degrees around the main body, it doesn’t have all tools on board (not the turbo tool), the price (especially of power nozzle models), the suction controls are foot operated instead of handle controlled. There are two C3’s available with suction handle controls, but they are way more expensive than the entry level C3 models with mostly the same features.

The miele is really expensive in the US for some reason, in the EU you can get the miele C1 for 150€, the C3 for under 300€ and the c3 cat and dog for 400€

I have a power head on c3 . Cleans very well.. Like to the power head review for both units. Still great video!

“Me-lerr” I’m in UK and Miele are probably cheaper here than the US/ Canada. I have just bought the C2 compact Cat + Dog £239.

The Miele hardwood floor brush is so bad, LOL. In terms of maneuverability and pickup, it's disappointing. As if Miele does this on purpose to force you to buy their premium brush. I like Miele for its weight, simplicity, and noise level. It's always one of the best canister vacuums on the market, but they need to work on the brushes.

Where’s Ryan ?

As a vacuum cleaner collector who has sold many different models of the years including Mile I had to mention that your review should have pitted the Kenmore against a miele with a Power nozzle. I understand that you basing this video on price. However should someone want the better cleaning machine all around the first Miele model that offers a PN will out clean the Kenmore in a heartbeat. In addition the miele is much quieter including the PN. The Miele is also compared with Sebo, Aerus Lux platinum and Miele in terms of airflow and filtration. Don't get me wrong Kenmore was and still is an excellent vacuum cleaner. It's worth every penny. I guess my point is that you should have put an miele with a PN against the Kenmore. That might justify the difference in price. Otherwise a great video comparison. Again just my opinion. Side note, I have used or owned almost ever vacuum cleaner since the beginning of vacuum cleaners. I have been a collector for more that 50 years.

jeez this video got a lot of comments

Maintenance!!!! Its very important

It goes without saying you should have a Míele because you can get parts for it, unlike the Ken-less that isn't even around anymore, because Sears is gone. Do your research!

Dude why are you comparing a straight auction machine with an electric nozzle machine. A C1 with the Wesselwerx head would wipe the floor with kenmore.

Older vacuum machine like Samsung VCC 8850 15 years old is much much 3000 times better than ALL new model of this very expensive Miele,but do not makes any more.Why? Don’t have idea.

I usually hear it pronounced ME-Luh

Kenmore is confusing these days with Sears now pretty much out of the business. Did another company take over Kenmore appliances and are they continuing to keep the same quality as Kenmore had for decades??

Get the Miele instead of the Kenmore canister. The Kenmore vacuum doesn't have a gasket on the bags that you buy for it meaning that the vacuum is only going to last 2 years but that miele vacuum will last 20 years easily and it is made in Germany. The miele c1 classic is only 150$ more than that Kenmore vacuum and the motor is way stronger and will last way longer than the Kenmore. The Miele motor is rated for a minimum running time of 1000 hours. If you want a vacuum that will actually last for many years to come and if you do not like that the vacuum does not have a powered brush roll for carpet get the miele c1 classic cat and dog it is a better vacuum in every single way compared to the Kenmore vacuum.

Nooo I just bought the kenmore 😂

kenmore probally won but miele c1 is cheaper

😡 🤥. No $10. 0:29. $2000
