What the Runtime Claim Actually MeansLevoit states the attachment for each figure: 60 minutes in Eco with the crevice tool, 40 minutes in Standard with the vacuum head or motorised brush, and 12 minutes in Turbo. The 60-minute headline is the non-powered toolMiele's own support page gives the real table: 60 minutes at MIN level with the PowerUnit alone (no powered head), falling to 14-17 minutes at maximum power with an electrobrush attached. The '120 minutes' on the box is two 60-minute batteries added together

Pros & Cons

Levoit LVAC-300

Pros

  • +Publishes air watts and a three-mode runtime table that names the attachment for each figure — unusually honest at this price
  • +Self-standing, so unlike Dyson and Miele you are not obliged to drill a bracket into a wall
  • +Detachable battery that charges off the machine, at a price where sealed packs are the norm
  • +Around $230 street for 90 AW, a HEPA element and a 2-year warranty

Cons

  • 90 air watts is barely a third of the Dyson's 240 — this is a maintenance vacuum, not a deep-carpet one
  • 12 minutes in Turbo, and 40 rather than 60 as soon as the powered head goes on
  • A HEPA element in a body Levoit never claims is sealed is not an allergy solution
  • No spare-battery price published, and the LVAC-200 pack will not fit

Miele Triflex HX2 Pro (11827020)

Pros

  • +Miele publishes the real runtime table — including 14-17 minutes at max with the electrobrush — where almost every rival publishes only a best case
  • +Two batteries included plus a HEPA filter Miele says never needs replacing: the lowest consumable cost in the category
  • +The 3-in-1 body lets you put the motor at the floor end for stairs or on top for balance, and it stands up on its own
  • +Push-button power, not a held trigger

Cons

  • $1,199 and Miele will not publish a suction figure of any kind, so you cannot compare it on paper with a Dyson or a Samsung
  • Spare batteries are $229 each — more than twice Dyson's $99.99
  • No auto-empty tower is offered at any price, unlike LG and Samsung at lower money
  • The '120 minutes' on the box is two batteries, at minimum power, with no powered head fitted
