.com ---- The Miele S8 Series A perfect synergy of design and functionality, Miele’s S8 series sets new standards in floor care. These full-size canisters combine maximum features and efficiency with outstanding cleaning results. Superior engineering is balanced with carefully-selected, fine quality materials such as a durable stainless steel wand and specialized ABS plastic with a hard, impact-resistant surface. The S8 series features innovative skeleton construction, making it 2 lbs. less than the S5 series. Other conveniences include a 36-foot operating radius and foot pedal controls for quick and effective cleaning. S8 also features a silence motor to maintain a quiet environment, and an AirClean Sealed System that not only vacuums your floors – but also cleans the air your family breathes. S 8590 Alize Miele’s S8 Alize vacuum cleaner features an AirTeQ Combination floor tool ideal for cleaning low pile carpeting, rugs and smooth flooring. The AirTeQ has streamlined airflow for uninterrupted floor contact as you switch from smooth flooring to carpeting. Alize offers a savvy, self-adjusting Automatic setting. As you transition from hardwoods to carpeting, the Alize automatically decreases suction, then increases suction when you return to smooth, solid flooring — saving you both time and energy. A telescopic, stainless steel wand and long electrical cord, with one-touch automatic rewind, provide a total cleaning radius of 36 feet. The S8 Alize is also equipped with a Deluxe Comfort Grip handle with LED headlight and six-stage suction controls, plus Automatic setting, via a +/- foot switch. Other conveniences include three integrated accessories — a dusting brush, upholstery tool and crevice nozzle — and a 3D bumper. Six-Stage Suction Controls plus Automatic Setting Six-stage suction controls via a +/- footswitch and features an automatic setting that intuitively increases and decreases suction based on the type of flooring being cleaned. AirClean Sealed System with Auto-Seal Closing FilterBag Deluxe Comfort Grip Handle with Spotlight Comfortable, ergonomic handle features an LED spotlight to illuminate the area being cleaned. AirClean Sealed System with Auto-Seal Closing FilterBag UniQ’s AirClean Sealed System features a HEPA filter which captures and retains over 99.9% of lung-damaging particles. This, plus Miele’s unique AirClean FilterBag, ensure that particles are never released back into the air. Three Integrated Accessories The S8 Alize features three convenient onboard accessories including a dusting brush, upholstery tool and crevice nozzle. 3D Bumper Strip The 3D Bumper Strip is a multi-faceted band that offers extra protection for your fine furnishings. One-Touch Cable Rewind The gentle, complete one-touch cable rewind feature fully retracts the cord, with no need to stand on the switch. Dynamic Drive Specialized castor wheels feature air-injected tires and shock absorbers that allow for soft suspension when the Alize gently maneuvers over thresholds and uneven flooring.
