A:AnswerI purchased it as a gift but it uses the same bags I use on my C3. I bought a spare box of bags and as I recall it was $18.00 for 3 bags(good to have on hand). I prefer the bags to the constant cleaning I do with the Dyson I have. It's kind of a mess with our two Golden Retrievers.
A:AnswerHello,
Depending on your flooring the Compact C1 Turbo Team does a great job on pet hair. The unit has an air-driven brush roll (Not motor driven), and is designed for simpler, low to medium pile, carpets and rugs.
We do manufacture a line of pet vacuums that we call Cat & Dog vacuums. If you home has more carpet. Or if your home has thicker more plush high pile carpet we would recommend investigating the Cat & Dog units. The other advantages of the Cat & Dog units; They come with a cleaning tool for your upholstery and other delicate surfaces. They have a height adjustable power driven brush roll. And, The Classic C1, Complete C3 and Dynamic U1 Cat & Dog models have an exhaust filter that has active charcoal that helps eliminate pet odor from the exhaust of the vacuum.

A:AnswerParquet brush width is about 11 1/2 inches and adequate.
Turbo Comfort floorhead width is about 10 1/2 inches--I have not used this attachment--I have hardwood and vinyl floors throughout my house.
I don't know why the specs list a cleaning path width of 29.5 inches. It could be an error on Best Buy's website. Miele's website says" 29 1/2 foot operating radius" for this vacuum. Not positive what that means other than perhaps the distance you can cover "in a circle" with the cord length? I suggest you look at Miele's website for specs.
A:AnswerHello,
This unit comes from the Miele factory in China. Many of the components, like the motor, come from Germany. It is Miele quality!

The operating radius of this vacuum is 29.5'. This includes the length of the cord hose and wand extended in a straight line.
We will correct this spec on the site.

The vacuum has an air-driven brush roll. It is designed for low-medium pile carpets and rugs. And, It performs very well on those types of Carpets and rugs. If you have a pile that is very plush/thick or very long we would recommend a Miele vacuum with a height adjustable power brush roll.
