Miele’s S194 Quickstep stick vacuum is light and slim but does not slack on cleaning power. An impressive 1,000-watt motor picks up dust and pet hair with ease. Although powerful, this vacuum is one of the quietest cleaners available. Two motor power settings are available to help choose the best cleaning option. Two conveniently located switches make selecting the surface easier. The included floor tool is perfect for hard wood or bare floors along with low-pile carpeting and area rugs. A durable metal glide sole is gentle on even the most delicate of floors. A quick-step foot pedal allows you to move from bare floors to rugs instantly. The versatile Quickstep can also be paired with electronic heads for extensive carpet cleaning. Accessory tools are conveniently stored right on the vacuum, including a crevice tool and an upholstery brush. The versatility of the Quickstep doesn’t end with the tools available. Since the vacuum is mounted on a telescopic pole, you can change the height to save your back from stooping over. Place the canister higher on the tube to reach under furniture and beds with ease. The canister can be taken off the tube completely for a lightweight and powerful handheld vacuum, perfect for detailing small areas or stairs. In addition to flooring, the Quickstep is perfect for taking out to your car, RV or boat. Even on their lightest vacuum, Miele did not skimp on filtration power. An AirClean filter holds even the finest of particles as they pass through the vacuum, protecting your air and lungs from damaging dust and dander. The three-ply IntensiveClean plus filter bag surpasses normal paper bags by retaining everything that enters into it. The long-lasting bag is easily replaced with a quick clip-in holder and a self-sealing lid to prevent messy changes. The ergonomic comfort handle has a rubber end to prevent falling when the vacuum is being stored or leaned against walls. The power cord is stored on two quick-release hooks and offers a generous 28-foot cleaning radius. For small spaces and homes with bare floors, the Quickstep is a great option to make your cleaning routine easy.
