If you just have to spend a lot of money on a high end luxury vacuum I would give Miele and Sebo a pass and consider one of the two legacy Aerus Lux canister vacuums. Neither the Miele or Sebo canisters have what I would consider to be acceptable attachments or bag capacity. The attachments are particularly galling to me, ridiculously small, for something with a premium price. To me they are useless. And while Lux machines are similarly cursed with a small dust bag, at least their attachments and Sidekick II are outstanding, far better than anything coming out of Europe today. The Sidekick is not a turbo brush but is electrically drive and superior to any turbo brush. The Lux floor brush is a bit complicated mechanically (more work to replace a worn belt or brush roll) and has no height adjustment, but does a great job on all kinds of carpets. It doesn't slow down on deep carpets and doesn't rev to the moon if you pick it up while running to move from wall to wall carpet to a throw rug in a room. The Guardian motor is robust, durable and when it does wear out they are economically rebuilt (my local vac shop just charged me $35 to rebuild one). Parts availability is excellent and Lux seems to put a lot of effort into supporting their older models. Not too many manufacturers do that today. If you are not a brand snob, take a look at what Panasonic sells. They are invisible in most vacuum discussion because they don't advertise and they sell primarily through mom and pop vacuum shops. They are very light weight, have ultra powerful motors and use utterly conventional full sized attachments, button lock wands and the industry standard floor brush. Their dust bag has more than twice the capacity of a Miele dust bag and their filtration might be better. At least their pre-motor filters are thicker and have a larger surface area than Mieles, and both have similar pleated exhaust filters. You can use the excellent Kenmore Q cloth HEPA bag available six to a bag for $20 at any Sears. Compare that to the price Miele nicks you for a bag and consider also the Q bag takes twice as long to fill. The MC-CG902 is a no frills basic old school canister vacuum, identically a 1990s Kenmore Progressive with four full sized attachments but Panasonic has put a very modern inducer motor in it. It gives nothing up to any Miele or Lux in terms of cleaning power, has much more usable attachments and are usually bought for under $250 if you shop wisely. Even the top of the line Panasonic MC-CG937 with variable motor speed control (on the hose handle) and an expander cage in the bag chamber only fetches around $350 retail. With the money you save you can go out and buy a nice telescopic wand and a rubber wheeled horse hair hard floor brush for it and use the rest of the money on other more important things. Mahalo

I had a reply, but then looked at how old the original poster was and deleted.

It is very difficult to get white floors cleaned especially the corners. Products likethe beam vacuum have really helped to solve my problem and I would suggest everyone to try the same. It's also efficient in purposes like:pet hair -carpet -wood floor -tile floor and is also light in weight.

After reading your purposes, I think you cam take Dyson animal upright vacuum, which will be good for pet hair, carpet, hardwood floor and light-weight as well. You also can check Hoover Air cordless vacuum for your multi purpose cleaning.

I suggest to buy Kent Cyclonic Vacuum Cleaner for use floor, tiles and pet hair. Due to HEAP filter and high suction power, it completely remove dust particles and make your indoor environment clean.

Two problems. Number one there is no electric power nozzle. You aren't going to clean pet hair out of wall to wall carpet without a good electric power nozzle. A turbo brush doesn't have the power and would bog on some of the deep pile carpets typical of American homes. Number two, they aren't sold in the US. These are sold in India and are intended to us 220v/60Hz power. Kent cannot sell in North America because there is already a company by the name of Kent Moore many decades old that sells big commercial cleaning equipment, everything from commercial vacuums and grade carpet extractors to ride along washer / scrubber tractors for cleaning aircraft hangars.

I suggest you can go with some brand such as Dyson and Shark. These are very good. Price can be range from $200 - $500 per unit.
