Review Miele S7580 Tango Upright (Titian Red Metallic) / Miele S7580 Tango:A significant benefit of the Miele S7 is its innovative, patented SwivelNeckTM which allows steering in all directions. The SwivelNeckTM is so maneuverable the S7 can even be laid flat to the floor which makes getting under beds and other low furnishings easier than ever before. Using the foot switch, the casing is disengaged from the floor head and the rear wheels disappear into the body of the vacuum enhancing overall maneuverability without exertion on your body. Movements are fluid, natural and almost effortless. The other key to nimbleness is smooth running front caster wheels that rotate 360° and have non-marring rubber wheels that protect hard, smooth surfaces like tile and wood flooring. The S7 negotiates obstacles with incredible ease and reaches into inaccessible places. between tables, chairs and under chairs. Unlike other vacuum concepts, the Miele S7 provides this maximum agility without making you carry the weight. [+]Thanks to superior engineering, when the vacuum is reclined, the majority of weight is carried by the base electrobrush assembly making it easy to hold and remarkably easy to push. Moving from hard flooring to carpeting? No problem. The floor switch raises the electrobrush making it smooth to jump from one surface to another. The electrobrush can be turned off, stopping the agitator bar, letting the suction power do all of the heavy lifting.
