The Miele Triflex HX1 has a couple of quality of life features. There are three power settings available, aside from ‘0’, which is used to turn the vacuum off. In increasing order of suction power, they are ‘1’, ‘2’, and ‘max.’. This setting can be switched via a slider on its main handle. Using the ‘2’ or ‘max.’ power modes also enables its automatic surface-type adjustment feature, which allows it to select the optimal brush power by itself, and even stop the brushroll if it detects that something is tangled in it, like rug tassels.
