Miele Wand Clog Update 2021
Posted On February 21, 2021
I had written years ago about my problem with the Miele SET220. Well, Miele got in touch and replaced the wand for free. Top notch customer support.
My vacuum wand was missing a critical piece that covered up the cable. Having this cable exposed is what turned the wand into a rats nest whenever I used it.

Was your vacuum still under manufacturer warranty? I have an older Miele vacuum I bought used that is having this problem with the electric telescopic wand. I’m wondering if it’s worth contacting Miele or if you only got the excellent response because of a newer model and/or warranty.
Here is the first post on the Miele wand problem
I was not under warranty – I just emailed them the photos, showed how it wasn’t working. I think I was writing as a complaint – I don’t think I was asking for replacement. I believe there is supposed to be a white half tube that wraps around the cord and keeps it from catching on stuff. When I look at my new one, the cord is completely separate from the tube.
Best of luck, and I hope you get it sorted.
Thanks for replying. I’ll give it a go. Definitely doesn’t look as though it’s supposed to be like that.
I wasn’t under warranty. I just called them to complain.
