All in a name
There's a story behind your vacuum's name, Callisto. Callisto is Jupiter's second largest moon. And mythologically, Callisto was one of Zeus's beloved nymphs. Agile on her feet, adept to her environment, this huntress had a reputation for stealth. And beauty. So whether it's a stretch or not, it's cool that your Miele vacuum has this name lineage. Painted in a deep black and equipped with the right tools for hunting dust bunnies, your S5 Series S5280 Callisto brings a whole new meaning of clean to your living room.
Anything else is a compromise
That's Miele's slogan. At first I thought, yeah yeah, another super duper dirt sucker . . . but as I researched this vacuum, I began to see why anything else (like my current 80 pound behemoth of a vacuum) is a compromise. The S5280 Callisto vacuum makes a tidy — and attentive — house mate. For instance, the adjustable wand is good news for your back. Corner-dwelling dust bunny colonies are finally sucked away thanks to the 90º brush rotation. And while you motor from the carpet to the wood floor, simply turn the rotary dial to adjust brush levels. Or, if you really want to fly auto pilot, choose the Intelligent Automatic Setting. The power level adjusts automatically to suit the floor surface.
Safety-equipped
Like any great huntress, your Callisto vacuum respects the environment it works in — your living room. First, three smooth-running 360º castor wheels mounted on steel axles ensure maximum stability and maneuverability while you're cruising around from room to room. Second, the convenient park system (or kickstand, as I like to call it) is located on the back of the canister. Just park the wand and floor tool into the system if you need to answer the phone or jot down a poem.
Make it an IntensiveClean Plus&trade day
It doesn't surprise me that Miele's dust bag design takes after their innovative vacuum design. But of course, why not equip an already robust vacuum with good dirt bags? They're the ones that hold all the pet dander, crumbs, dust bunnies, etc. The Miele Air Clean-Filter system is made up of the IntensiveClean Plus&trade dustbag, the motor filter, and an air filter. Together this means: Longer suction performance. 15% improved filtration. Impact foil preventing sharp-edged objects, such as pine needles, glass, and sand from penetrating the bag. Automatic dustbag closure makes for hygienic removal and disposal. See, these dirt bags are keepers.
