DustFluffGrit meets the Miele Hybrid S4812

DustFluffGrit got to meet the Miele Hybrid S4812 at Miele’s new London gallery,

“Based on the design of their mid-range S4 canister, it’s the first cleaner to utilise Miele’s patented new ‘Hybrid’ technology, which allows the user to vacuum with the cleaner in either corded or cordless modes.”

In his post, EXCLUSIVE: Miele Hybrid S4812 and Eco Line S4212, he goes into all the details you’d want to know – from the lithium-ion batteries to how it coped with the pick-up assault course that had been set over a small set of carpeted stairs and featured among other debris, drawing pins, beads, porridge oats and cotton wool.

DustFluffGrit’s first impressions are positive, but he is looking forward to getting a trial version to really see what the hybrid is capable of. For now though,

“The Hybrid technology offers much more power, runtime and reach than a traditional hand-held cleaner, although obviously, it’s not as compact or lightweight, either! It’s one of those great ideas that begs the question, ‘why hasn’t anyone thought of this before?!’”

As you can tell from the title of the post there is also some investigation into the S4 Eco Line, which will only use 1300w of power, but has the same level of ‘pick-up power’ as a 2200w model.
