    The air flow through the bag cools the drive motor if the bag is blocked then the motor has no cooling air flow (these things can use 1,500 watts on heat alone and require the cooling) you are lucky the Miele has a cut-out or the lot and your home will go up in flames, hope the Dyson has.

    The Dyson is not a very good system. The Miele is far better in its cleaning ability.

    My parents had this problem, it is down to the filters, the best way of solving it is to replace the posh filters with miele standard ones from a miele dealer.
