I Tested the Miele Guard M1 Parquet XL Brilliant – It's a Dream on Hard Floors, With an Extra-Wide Floorhead and Strong Suction

I have grown to love Miele vacuums during my time as Homes & Gardens' resident vacuum tester. These premium, robust appliances boast some of the strongest suction and durability on the market, and there are so many models that pretty much every floorcare need can be dealt with.

The Miele Guard M1 Parquet XL Brilliant is a canister vacuum that is only designed for hard floor cleaning. There are no spinning brushrolls to clean carpets; use soft, padded floorheads that pick up debris using their large surface area and powerful suction.
