Verdict

The Miele Boost CX1 Parquet is a compact, bagless canister vacuum cleaner featuring an 890W to 1200W PowerLine motor (depending on region) and Vortex technology that generates an airflow exceeding 100 km/h. Designed specifically for hard surfaces, it includes a specialized Parquet Twister SBB 300-3 floorhead, a 1-liter dust bin, a multi-stage HEPA AirClean filtration system, and a 4-stage rotary selector for suction control. Main pros include its lightweight 7.8 kg design, excellent maneuverability thanks to the lateral TrackDrive wheel system, and a generous 10-meter operating radius with an automatic cable rewind. However, major cons include its poor performance and difficulty to push on medium-to-deep pile carpets due to the lack of an electronic brushroll, a relatively small dust container capacity that requires frequent emptying, and a tendency to plow over or struggle with larger debris on bare floors.
