Miele S5360 How To Stop Lid From Lifting While Vacuuming 

This video does not suck! , unlike my miele hoover now. Cheers mate

Thank you so much for this - I've the identical vacuum cleaner and the identical problem. Been bothering me for ages, thought I'd have to replace the vacuum! No more hoovering while holding the lid down with one foot, bonus :)

You're a life saver! Had a different issue. I couldn't close the lid - one side was stuck and just having my right hand underneath the cover and left pushing down (as you did) fixed it! 👍

Nice to see someone using original parts instead of knock-off third party brands. It's always worth buying original filters and bags. People don't understand that you have to maintain your vacuum cleaner. Proves they don't read the literature that comes with it.

Great! Solved the same problem with my 2 year old Miele C3. lesson learned on cheap so called 'compatible' products. Miele consumables only for me from now on!!! Many thanks.

The Miele GN and FJM use the same shaped face plate but are different size bags. I actually forget which one is bigger. As for the exhaust filter the SF-aac or SF-AH filters both have a rubber edging for best possible air seal. If you add a super air clean filter as well (fabric) the seal will actually not be as good so it will let a tiny bit more dust out of the vacuum.

Thank you for this video 🙂.

Thanks for the video. Miele is a medium Chinese quality! Parts extremely pricey on some countries. Miele must just improve lid's hook/lock.

Help ALEX! I have a vax 6. I took the lid off and now i cannot clip it back on properly. It seems to be "rocking" on something but i cannot figure out what. The lid has several crevices and bumps so impossible to see what is going on... appreciate any help you can offer. Thnku :(

your vids are awesome

Hello, still have the problem after changing the filter. I use only miele products. Do you have advices on what I should check or do? Thanks

That miele in the video uses the blue collar bags. Will a miele s6 use those gn bags as well? I am using the fjm bags.

Thanks!!!! Great help.

What is the full model number of the S6, I can defintely tell you if I have the full number.

I’ve new filters and my vacuum loses all suction because the top isn’t down tight enough

I have this problem with the tool lid on my c3, would this be the same.

I need a hand with replacing the lid on my Power Plus S5981 model Miele. I have a new lid with both hinges but can't even find a diagram of how to put it back on. Can you help? I downloaded the manual for it and no diagram was in it.

Vacuum sounds horrible with generic bags. You should have cleaned the inside as well.

What is different with the gn bags? Why can't I use two filters at a time on the exhaust area?

opened my miele c3 to change filters and bag. now lid is stuck open and can't get it to close! any suggestions?

I have done all that, and I still have the same problem,

Yes it is not the best with the generic bags. I am wanting to upload simple videos with only 1 topic at the moment. This is why I did not clean or service the machine as such.

Mine is an s6290 and I live in the usa.

my accessory lid came completely off. How do I put it back on? There is a spring inside but I cannot get it to fold back down to replace the cover.

Ah Ok well for your machine the FJM bags are definitely the correct ones. The GN bags will actually fit but the bag capacity is different.

That’s the worst vacuum repair have ever seen my life come on clean the poor vacuum first it’s just gonna blow back into the new filter you just put it in absolutely insane never seen anything like it…..
