Miele Cat & Dog Bagged Canister Vacuum Guard L1 w/Performance Pack

Thanks to the Lightweight Skeletal System designed by Miele, the Guard is Lightweight, Quiet and Powerful. The Miele Guard packs Miele's PowerLine Motor with noise optimized fan, which was designed to keep the machine quiet at 75 dB and light! Same Power, Less Weight and of course as with all Miele Canisters; Made in Germany. The Miele Guard has a carrying handle built-in the machine allowing you to bring the machine up and down stairs and around the house easily. The handle swoops upwards for easier machine pick-up. Four smooth-running 360 degree wheels are mounted on steel axles to ensure maximum stability for your Miele vacuum cleaner. The castor wheels are even designed with a travel ramp to help your vacuum travel over thresholds and around obstructions! The Miele Guard vacuum cleaners offer the ideal combination of maximum suction power and unlimited runtime – perfect for large areas. With a powerful fan, optimized airways, and matching floorheads, they ensure particularly thorough cleaning. The new FilterBag system with ComfortFit, combined with the powerful exhaust filters, delivers first-class performance and hygiene – so you can benefit from reliable, powerful cleaning. The cable on all Miele canister vacuum cleaners can be rewound easily with a footswitch, without having to bend over. Guard M1 and Guard L1 vacuum cleaners are also equipped with a touch control function, allowing the entire cable to be rewound at the touch of a button. Enjoy the ultimate in user convenience with the innovative foot controls for convenient cleaning. The ergonomic operating concept enables you to control the suction power easily with your foot without the effort of bending over. Intuitive operation is supported by graphic symbols which make it easy for you to select the best power level for the area you are cleaning. Miele's Active Airclean Filter, a premium exhaust filter designed to tackle unpleasant odors and fine dust in demanding environments—especially such as homes with pets or smokers. Featuring activated charcoal for effective odor neutralization, the filter helps maintain a fresher, cleaner atmosphere while capturing dust particles. It also incorporates a built-in TimeStrip change indicator, enabling you to visually monitor filter usage and know exactly when it’s time to replace it (recommended once a year) to keep your machine running at peak efficiency. The Active Airclean Filter safely seals in dust, protects your vacuum’s motor and airflow, and ensures that the air your family breathes is cleaner and more comfortable. With Miele's innovative filter technology and matching FilterBags, you can enjoy all-round hygiene in your home. The ComfortFit system makes it particularly easy to insert FilterBags, while the secure closure ensures that no dust escapes and that the bag can be changed in a particularly hygienic manner. Furthermore, the new FilterBags are made of more than 80% recycled material. The Comfort handle with integrated dust brush offers very ergonomic handling and fast cleaning in the event of little mishaps. The Miele Guard L1 is equipped with an innovative 2-in-1 nozzle – so you can switch between cleaning tasks quickly and easily. It combines an extra-wide upholstery nozzle and a crevice nozzle in a space-saving design – for easy cleaning of upholstery and hard-to-reach areas. Thanks to its convenient storage location in the rear part of the vacuum cleaner, it is ready to hand at any time. Miele's universal floorheads are a practical solution for homes with small floors and different types of flooring. Foot switches for operating the all-round bristle strip are located on the floorhead and depending on the floor covering, vacuuming with or without it is possible. This makes Miele universal floorheads equally suited for cleaning carpets and hard floors. The soleplate and rubberized rollers mean they glide easily across the floor. Carpets must be vacuumed regularly even if no surface soiling is visible. Carpets must be brushed and vacuumed at the same time so that even deeply embedded dust and fluff are removed reliably. The beater bar of the Miele turbobrush, which is powered by the suction system, removes dirt effectively from your carpets. The Guard L1 is built for today’s living spaces. Whether parked neatly in a side-entry, home-office or living-room corner, its elegant design and premium materials project both functionality and good taste — perfect for homes where every appliance matters visually, not just practically.
