Miele Triflex HX1 Cordless Stick Vacuum

Meet the Miele Triflex HX1 Cordless Stick Vacuum—a German-engineered powerhouse that redefines versatility with its patented 3-in-1 design. This isn't your typical stick vacuum. The Triflex transforms between three distinct modes: Comfort (traditional upright), Reach (extended for high shelves and curtains), and Compact (handheld for stairs and cars). At 8 pounds, it's heavier than most cordless sticks, but that weight comes with Miele's legendary build quality and the power to rival corded uprights. The intelligent Multi Floor XXXL electrobrush automatically detects surface types and adjusts cleaning performance accordingly—no manual switching between carpet and hard floor modes. The replaceable VARTA lithium-ion battery delivers up to 60 minutes of runtime on the lowest setting, though expect shorter sessions when using the motorized brush on carpets. The Hygiene Lifetime filter captures 99.99% of fine particles and never needs replacement, just occasional washing. This vacuum targets homeowners who want corded-level performance without the cord, especially those with mixed flooring and multi-story homes. The trade-offs are real: the higher weight makes extended overhead cleaning more tiring, and Miele's premium engineering comes at a premium price. If you clean frequently in shorter bursts and value long-term durability over lightweight convenience, the Triflex HX1 delivers cleaning power that most cordless vacuums simply can't match.
