On Suction Power, the Dyson V15 Detect Plus leads (9.5 vs 7.5/10) — actual cleaning force at the head, judged on air watts where a maker publishes them and discounted where only Pa or motor watts are quoted. On Sustained Runtime, the Miele Triflex HX2 Pro (11827020) leads (6.0 vs 4.0/10) — how long the machine really runs on max power with the motorised floor head attached — not the eco-mode, bare-tool figure on the box.

Side-by-Side Comparison
| Spec | Miele Triflex HX2 Pro (11827020) | Dyson V15 Detect Plus |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $1199.00 | $599.99 |
| Release Year | 2022 | 2021 |
| Machine Type | Dry cordless stick vacuum, 3-in-1 convertible (top-mount, floor-mount or handheld) | Dry cordless stick vacuum, converts to handheld |
| Suction (as published) | Not published by the manufacturer — Miele publishes three electronic power levels but no air-watt, Pa or motor-watt suction figure | 240 air watts. Dyson publishes air watts, the only one of the three common numbers that describes work done at the cleaning head |
| Runtime, Eco / Headline (min) | 60 | 60 |
| Runtime, Max Power (min) | 17✓ | 9 |
| What the Runtime Claim Actually Means | Miele'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 | Dyson's 'up to 60 minutes' is Eco with a non-powered tool. TechGearLab measured 64 min on low and 9 min on Boost with the Digital Motorbar head fitted. Dyson publishes no per-mode table. |
| Removable Battery | Yes — two 25.2 V / 2500 mAh Vortex batteries included, swappable without tools | Yes — tool-free click-in battery; one included |
| Spare Battery | $229.00 from Miele USA | $99.99 for the genuine Dyson click-in pack (shared with V11, Outsize and V15s Submarine) |
| Dock / Wall Mount | Wall mount and charging tray included; there is no floor dock and no auto-empty. The machine free-stands unaided | Wall-mounted docking station included; it must be screwed into a wall. No free-standing dock and no auto-empty base exists for this model |
| Filtration | Maintenance-free HEPA Lifetime filter, 99.999% dust retention claimed. Miele publishes no whole-machine seal certification | Whole-machine sealed filtration with a washable lifetime filter. Dyson's 99.99%-at-0.3-micron claim is stated for Boost mode |
| Bin / Tank Capacity | 0.5 L bin with a bottom release | 0.77 L bin. Point-and-shoot ejection drives the shroud down through the bin, so your hand never goes near the dust |
| Weight (lbs) | 8 | 6.83✓ |
| Filters, Consumables & Self-Clean | The HEPA Lifetime filter is designed never to be replaced, so there is no filter consumable at all. Spare batteries at $229 are the only real running cost | Filter is washable and has no replacement schedule — rinse monthly. Cleaner heads and brush bars are stocked as Dyson spares |
| Warranty | 24 months | 24 months |
| Colors | Infinity Grey PearlFinish / Rose Gold | Yellow/Nickel |

Pros & Cons
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
Dyson V15 Detect Plus
Pros
- +240 air watts is a genuine cleaner-head figure, not a sealed-suction Pa number — only Samsung and Levoit publish anything comparable here
- +The laser head makes fine dust on hard floors visible, which changes how you clean rather than just how you feel about it
- +Whole-machine sealed filtration, so what the filter catches does not leak back out through the body
- +A genuine Dyson spare battery is $99.99 — less than half what Miele charges
Cons
- −You hold the trigger down for the entire clean; there is no latch. This is the single most common long-term Dyson complaint
- −Boost mode with the powered head lasts about 9 minutes — the '60 minutes' is Eco with a non-powered tool
- −The dock is a wall bracket that needs drilling; there is no stand in the box and no auto-empty option at any price
- −$600 street and $850 list for a 0.77 L bin you still empty by hand
