Did they? I&#x27;m under the impression that most vacuum geeks prefer Miele. Till recently, Dysons weren&#x27;t even sealed, so they leaked quite a bit of dust.<p>They are OK machines. I own one. Mieles are much better built and do a better cleaning job overall. Same applies to old Nilfisk models. Newer or flashier is not equal to better, always.<p>They outsource production to China, which doesn&#x27;t seem to give them the same quality as Miele or old Nilfisks (made in Denmark).
