What Makes the Model Stand Out
What sets the Miele SEB 228 Electro Plus Full-Size Floorhead apart from its competitors is its high-torque motorized brush roll, which actively agitates and lifts stubborn debris from deep within carpet fibers—something passive heads simply can’t achieve. Its adjustable height control allows you to fine-tune suction and agitation based on floor type, maximizing both effectiveness and protection.

In addition, the floorhead’s wide design and durable construction make it ideal for larger homes and spaces. When purchased through Authorized Miele Dealer Ace Vacuums, customers receive the peace of mind that comes with genuine Miele quality, full warranty support, and expert service.
