Our Verdict

Dyson V15 Detect

Miele Boost CX1

The Dyson V15 Detect and the Miele Boost CX1 are very different vacuums; their only common feature is that they're both bagless. The Dyson performs much better overall, though. It's a little easier to maintain and has zero recurring cost. But the Miele is a canister vacuum, so it has a much larger dirt compartment, plus it has higher build quality than the Dyson.
