D, Bath
Score 10.0/10+ This Hoover is the best Hoover I have ever used. I am just waiting for the loss of suction. It is very quiet and it is a pleasure to use.
- The only bad point that I would like to make about the Miele S5210 is the weight of it. I find it very difficult to use on the stairs because of its weight.

Score 9.0/10+ I find it neat and compact and having the tools where they are situated give easy access. I am very happy with the product.
- The only thing I find is that it is a little heavy to push, other than that no problems. Probably because I am getting older.

Score 9.0/10+ Solid, good range of settings (from very quiet with still decent suction, to slightly noisy - floor lifting suction!).

Score 9.0/10+ Great product. Lightweight and easy to use. Also good value.

Score 9.0/10+ hoovers up very well indeed much better than my last, a dyson, great for laminate floors very powerful, for rugs lifts them off the floor so you have to turn suction down.
- sometimes tool storage lid pops open when you dont want it to and not as easy to store away as an upright but i find these only minor problems as it works so very well.
