Our Verdict

Miele Triflex HX1

Miele Triflex HX2 Pro/Cat & Dog

The Miele Triflex HX2 Pro/Cat & Dog is a pretty comprehensive upgrade over the Miele Triflex HX1. The HX2 features a more efficient motor and significantly better battery life. It also has a handy 'ComfortClean' filter cleaning system, allowing you to dislodge any debris stuck in the filter system without getting your hands dirty. That said, the HX1 has a marginally higher-capacity dustbin, and its lower-powered motor makes it easier to maneuver on thick carpeting.
