Our Verdict

Miele Classic C1

Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister

The Miele Classic C1 and the Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister are similar canister vacuums, but the Miele is better overall. The Miele is much more powerful and more maneuverable; it comes with a couple more tools and brushes, and its dirt compartment is larger. It's also significantly better built and much easier to maintain and store. In contrast, the Eureka has virtually no recurring costs, is bagless, and is more portable.
