vacuum cleaners - Dyson v Miele - to bag or not to bag that is the question????

Quite simply I need a new hoover - My Dyson needs expensive replacement parts.
I have been happy with the Dyson performance I have had it 6 years. I have looked at the best buys on Which and Miele is the clear winner but I do not like the thought of going back to bags. Changing to a bagless cylinder was so liberating after the hassle I always had so I am considering getting a Dyson again anyway.
So do I need convincing that a Miele really is worth the hassle of bags or is the Dyson perfectly acceptable? I have two cats, lots of laminate flooring and (soon) 3 children.
Please help me make my mind up as I keep going round in circles!
Re getting rid of your knackered Dyson, my DP (who knows there are fifty ways to save a fiver) is cannibalising it and selling the bits on e-bay. Strictly for nutters but I reckon he will clear a few quid!
Another convert here for the miele too.
My dyson packed in and decided to go for the Which! recommendation.
Have to say I love it and would never have an upright again. It's power is really good and I always have a stash of spare bags available (they don't need changing that often)
Thanks WW. Got rid of my old Dyson on Freecycle too

Put your old/knackered Dyson on Freecycle, ilmd

Just over £6 per box, sorry

eg from
here - £5.95 for 1, 5% discount for multiples, £2.95 p&p per order, so if you buy 4 lots that would be £25.56 - just over £5 per box all in. Bargain

DYSON ANIMAL.
Although the Miele uses bags it only loses suction when they are completely jammed.
I wouldn't buy the cheap paper ones though, the fabricky Miele branded ones hold the dust in much better. I buy several boxes at a time, as with most suppliers you only pay one lot of postage per order. The bags are only just over £1 each & it's well worth it for me (I gave my Dyson away

)
cool... thanks... right answer
