Miele 12878460 Triflex HX3 Cordless Stick Vacuum in Brilliant White
The Miele 12878460 Triflex HX3 Brilliant White cordless stick vacuum brings powerful dry cleaning and everyday wet hard-floor care into one flexible system. Built for carpets, rugs, robust hard flooring, and delicate surfaces with the appropriate tool, it combines the Digital Efficiency Motor with Vortex Technology for strong pickup throughout the home. Its 99.99% dust pickup supports thorough, hygienic deep cleaning,1 while FloorDetect recognizes the flooring and adjusts power. For heavily soiled areas, Boost mode adds extra performance to help make faster work of stubborn debris.
Powered by a VARTA lithium-ion rechargeable battery, the Triflex HX3 runs for up to 70 minutes at the Low power level without the MultiFloor XXL electrobrush attached.2 The integrated display keeps cleaning mode, battery status, and remaining time close at hand so it is easier to plan each session and monitor charging. Its patented 3-in-1 design3 adapts to the task: Comfort mode supports effortless handling, Reach mode places the PowerUnit at the top for added flexibility, and Compact mode turns it into a fast, targeted handheld cleaner. With the PowerUnit at the bottom, the vacuum can also stand securely during short breaks or storage.
