Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless Canister Vacuum.

The Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog Bagless Canister Vacuum is Miele’s first bagless vacuum cleaner range. Having been a staunch proponent of bagged cleaners for years – and it still is – Miele has now thrown down the gauntlet and lot of reasearch and development dollars to offer a bagless option. It’s a winner and stunner vacuum.

Features of Miele Blizzard CX1 Cat & Dog vacuum:

• Seb228 electro+ power brush
• Sbb parquet floor twister
• Crevice tool, dusting brush, and upholstery tool
• Bagless canister
• Low to medium pile carpet and hard floors

Enter the range-topping Miele Blizzard CX1 Comfort Cat & Dog Bagless Canister Vacuum. This premium bagless cylinder vacuum cleaner is a suction powerhouse that is bristling with features.

Out of the box, the flagship Comfort Miele Blizzard CX1 edition is a sleek-looking cylinder cleaner. Its white coachwork, darker panels and sweeping lines are reminiscent of a fly-bridge on a luxury yacht, and the crystal-clear bin offers you a window into the centre of its single cyclone bagless system. The Miele Blizzard CX1 isn't small, nor is it light, but it certainly looks like it means business.

Pulling the cleaner around, the weight and size become irrelevant thanks to four Dynamic Drive casters. These combine 360-degree rotation with air-filled open rubber tyres, giving the cleaner super-smooth movement even over rough surfaces such as riven floor tiles.

At the back end of the cleaner a handle pulls up, allowing you to lift off the large cyclone and bin assembly with one hand. The single cyclone sees air-flow over 100kmh in its vortex, and Miele claims that it's quieter and works more efficiently at variable power levels than multi-cyclone designs.

A full-size flap at the bottom swings open for easy bin unloading, aided by the fact the vortex chamber is at right angles to the bin so fluff and other larger debris can’t get stuck around a central core.

There's a mesh gauze cup in the centre of the vortex, accessed by a panel that pulls off the back of the bin, and a finer mesh filter in a frame inside the bin. This doesn’t need regular cleaning, but when it does you have to get your hand in the bin to unclip its support frame.

The Miele Blizzard CX1 s real business filter is huge, housed in its own separate dust bin and has a self-cleaning function. Made by Gore (the company famous for Gore-Tex), the CleanStream filter is a folded fibrous canister with a row of prongs on the inside that rotate to agitate and flick dust out of the filter into the base of its bin.

The Miele Blizzard CX1 automatically detects when this filter is becoming blocked and pauses the vacuuming power for 20 seconds while it rotates the prongs to clear the filter. You can also initiate automatic filter cleaning by using the Comfort Clean button on the cleaner control panel at any time.

The filter canister pulls out of the cleaner and the filter pulls out of the bin so you can empty the contents; we found this didn’t need doing very often either. We got in the habit of giving the Comfort Clean feature a whirl every couple of cleaning sessions to keep the filter in tip-top performance.

Vortex Technology

High performance in the eye of the cyclone

 

Vortex Technology works together with airflow-optimised air guides and the floorhead to provide powerful cleaning performance.

Blizzard CX1 uses the centrifugal force created by an airflow rate in excess of 100 km/h to separate dust from coarse soiling.

No additional costs

Maintenance-free exhaust filter

 

In the last phase the dust encounters an exhaust air filter. The excellent filtration efficiency of the HEPA AirClean Lifetime filter has been confirmed by the medical organisation "Allergy UK" and certified as suitable for allergy sufferers.

Thanks to the HEPA AirClean Lifetime filter up to 99.999%* of small particles such as fine dust and allergens are retained by the system.

* According to EN 60312-1

Operation

Maintaining ideal suction power

 

Always adjust the suction power to the floor surface. This makes the floorhead easy to move and enables optimum cleaning results. Graphic symbols for the various applications make it easy to choose the right performance level.

Multi-function rotary dial*
The suction power is regulated electronically using a rotary control.

A tap is enough.

 

No need to stop. A simple tap on a foot switch is enough to comfortably rewind the entire cable of the Miele Blizzard CX1.

Park system for vacuuming breaks and storage

Easy parking system.

 

Blizzard CX1 is equipped with two park systems.

Blizzard CX1 is available with a choice of control types:

The park function for pausing during cleaning is on the left of the vacuum cleaner. To store the appliance upright there is another park function on the back of the vacuum cleaner.

360° castors 

Perfect cornering

 

Blizzard CX1 is equipped with four 360° castor wheels. The rubberised tyres on the easily manoeuvrable vacuum cleaner run gently, are hard-wearing and durable.
