Dyson Ball Animal 2 vs Miele Complete C3 Marin

Thanks to its powerful suction, this vacuum cleaner can easily remove filth, debris, and pet hair from rugs and hard floors. Additionally, the included tangle-free turbine tool removes pet and human hair from furniture and hard-to-reach places without leaving anything behind.

Thanks to the 1400 W motor and Dyson’s patented cyclone technology, this cleaner produces 270 airwatts of suction power. In comparison, other upright vacuums usually have less than 200. As a result, the unit picks up more dust, and you will have to spend less time to get the job done.

Thanks to its ball joint, it is easy to turn the vacuum around corners and reach tight places.

While this vacuum hasn’t got true HEPA filtration, it still doesn’t let any smells or dust particles out. It is approved by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.

You can purchase, separately, nine attachments for things like removing stubborn grime, cleaning glass, or even pet grooming.

Dyson uses a bagless dirt canister that can be easily removed from the vacuum. Once removed, just hold it over a trashcan and press a button to dispense the dirt.

It has a 35' long power cord, so that you can work on a vast area without the need to plug in and out of different power outlets.

The vacuum cleaner is well built and has a premium feel. Even the power cord feels premium.

Dyson Ball Animal 2 can be used on virtually any surface. The self-adjustable head deep-cleans your floors by getting low down onto the floor and creating a suction seal between the vacuum and the surface. It's suitable hard floors, carpets, upholstery, or curtains.

A nice addition for pet owners is the optional pet grooming tool. When attached to the quick-release wand, you can groom the pet and remove excess fur.

The vacuum comes with two large bristles: an electric power brush and a brush for hardwood cleaning. The electric power brush can be used on every floor and carpeting ,since it has five adjustable height levels and even an LED light that lets you see under furniture. The hardwood bristle is very flexible and rotates by 180 degrees, so you can get in even the tightest spots behind furniture or in corners.

Because of the extensive testing and strict quality control, Miele offers a seven-year warranty on the motor and the casing, and a one-year warranty for the rest of the parts. On top of that, Miele claims that the vacuum is made to work for 20 years and, reading customer reviews of the previous Miele vacuum cleaners, you can say that's more or less accurate.

Another feature that makes this unit very versatile is the automatic speed adjustment. The unit decides itself how much power is needed, depending on the tool you're using and the type of surface you are cleaning, for optimized results.

The motor is sound isolated, making it one of the quietest units on the market.

All the small attachments can be tucked away in a covered tool storage built into the main unit. Since the storage is covered, you don’t have to worry that the accessories will fall off and go missing.

As a German product, there is a lot of attention to small details. For example, the dusting brush is made from natural hair that doesn’t curl or mat. The upholstery nozzle has two strips that capture the lint and threads when moving the nozzle forward and then cleaning themselves when going backward.
