Verdict

The Miele S 8360 is a premium bagged canister vacuum cleaner featuring an energy-efficient 1200W motor, a generous 4.5-litre HyClean dust bag capacity, and a massive 12-metre operating radius. Key pros include its exceptional suction performance across multiple floor types, convenient plus/minus foot controls to adjust variable suction without bending, an integrated dust-free accessory compartment, and maximum air hygiene provided by its premium filtration system. However, notable cons include its relatively heavy 5.4 kg body (canister only) which can feel bulky to maneuver, and the recurring lifetime cost of purchasing proprietary replacement bags and filters.
