Bosch vs Miele Vacuum Cleaners

Bosch has moved decisively into cordless: the Unlimited 7 BCS71PETGB (£399) runs up to 60 minutes and converts to a handheld, while the Serie 2 BCH86HYGGB (£315) is a lightweight bagless stick model. Both feature multi-level filtration and suit homes where cable-free convenience is the priority.

Miele remains the cylinder vacuum authority. The L1-CAT-AND-DOG (£349) uses a bagged system for superior allergen containment, delivering sealed 890W suction that outperforms most cordless models on carpet. The BOOST CX1 (£259) offers a bagless alternative with Miele's HyClean filtration technology.

Bottom line: choose Bosch for cordless convenience and versatile handheld use around the home. Choose Miele if carpet deep-cleaning, allergen filtration, or corded reliability matters more than cable-free convenience.
