# Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog The Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog is Made in Germany and purpose-built for pet households — the only HX3 model that ships with the powered Electro Compact pet hair brush, delivering up to 70 minutes of cordless runtime and real-time battery tracking via a new digital display. **Best for:** Pet owners who need a versatile, high-performance cordless vacuum for carpets, hard floors, upholstery, and stairs — all in one machine. The Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog combines Miele's patented 3-in-1 design with two dedicated pet cleaning tools and a maintenance-free HEPA Lifetime filter that captures 99.999% of fine dust, allergens, and pet dander. The MultiFloor XXL electrobrush with FloorDetect technology automatically adjusts suction power and brush speed between carpet and hard floors — no manual switching required. One-touch Boost Mode delivers up to 42% more suction for 10 seconds when concentrated power is needed. The new digital display shows precise remaining runtime in minutes for each mode, switching to a live countdown timer when Boost Mode is active — a feature not available on the previous HX2 generation. ## Included Accessories - **MultiFloor XXL Electrobrush with BrilliantLight** — Main floorhead with FloorDetect technology for automatic adjustment between carpets and hard floors; integrated LED headlight illuminates dust and pet hair along baseboards and under furniture - **Electro Compact Brush HX-EC 20** — Powered mini brush exclusive to the Cat & Dog model; designed to lift embedded fur and dander from upholstery, stairs, and car seats - **XXL SPD 20 Upholstery Nozzle** — Extra-wide upholstery nozzle for sofas, mattresses, and fabric surfaces - **Crevice Nozzle** — Slim tapered nozzle for baseboards, corners, and tight gaps - **Dusting Brush** — Soft-bristle brush for delicate surfaces and above-floor cleaning - **Wall Mount with Integrated Bracket** — Keeps the vacuum and all tools neatly stored and charged - **Power Supply Unit** — For charging the removable battery - **Removable VARTA Li-ion Battery** — 25.2V, 2500 mAh ## Technical Specifications Performance Design Patented 3-in-1 (Comfort / Reach / Compact modes) Motor Digital Efficiency Motor with Vortex Technology Boost Mode Up to 42% more suction for 10 seconds FloorDetect Automatic suction and brush speed adjustment between floor types Noise level 77 dB Battery Battery type Removable VARTA Li-ion Voltage 25.2 V Capacity 2,500 mAh Max runtime (PowerUnit solo, Low Mode) Up to 70 minutes Recharge time 240 minutes Filtration & Capacity Filter type HEPA Lifetime Filter — maintenance-free, never needs replacing Filtration efficiency 99.999% per IEC 62885-4 Dustbin volume 0.5 L — Twist2Open hygienic emptying Dimensions & Weight Weight 3.6 kg (8 lbs) Dimensions (H x W x D) 1,297 mm x 260 mm x 280 mm Color Obsidian Black Model / SKU 41WDL032USA Country of manufacture Made in Germany ## Key Features - **Made in Germany** — Built to Miele's exacting engineering standards for lasting performance and reliability - **Electro Compact HX-EC 20** — Powered pet hair brush exclusive to the Cat & Dog model; lifts embedded fur and dander from upholstery, stairs, and car seats - **Patented 3-in-1 design** — Comfort Mode for floor cleaning, Reach Mode for extended range, Compact Mode for handheld use — all from one machine - **FloorDetect technology** — MultiFloor XXL automatically adjusts suction and brush speed between hard floors and carpet — no manual switching - **BrilliantLight LED headlight** — Integrated into the floorhead to reveal dust and pet hair along baseboards and under furniture - **New digital display with Boost Mode timer** — Shows precise remaining runtime in minutes; switches to a countdown timer when Boost Mode is activated - **Boost Mode** — One-touch access to up to 42% more suction for 10 seconds for concentrated pet hair or high-traffic areas - **70-minute runtime** — 10 minutes longer than the previous HX2 generation; applies to Low Mode, PowerUnit solo - **HEPA Lifetime Filter** — Maintenance-free filter retains 99.999% of fine dust and allergens — never needs replacing - **Twist2Open dustbin** — Hygienic one-twist emptying with a stainless-steel filter cage for clean, mess-free disposal - **Removable VARTA battery** — Swap or charge separately; compatible with additional HX3 batteries (sold separately) ## Recommendations - **Type of residence:** Any home with pets — mixed flooring including hard floors, carpet, upholstered furniture, and stairs - **Ideal users:** Pet owners who want a versatile cordless vacuum that handles floors and upholstery in one machine - **Floor compatibility:** Hardwood, laminate, tile, low to medium pile carpet, area rugs, stairs, upholstery - **Not recommended for:** High-pile or shag carpet — a Miele canister with a powered electrobrush is better suited for deep carpet cleaning ## Frequently Asked Questions **What makes the Cat & Dog different from the standard Triflex HX3?** The Cat & Dog is the only HX3 model that includes the powered Electro Compact brush HX-EC 20 — a motorized mini brush designed to lift embedded pet hair from upholstery, stairs, and car seats. The standard HX3 does not include this tool. **How long does the battery last?** Up to 70 minutes in Low Mode with the PowerUnit solo (without the electrobrush attached). Runtime varies by power setting and whether a brush attachment is in use. **Does the floorhead work on both carpet and hard floors?** Yes. The MultiFloor XXL electrobrush uses FloorDetect technology to automatically adjust suction power and brush speed as you move between floor types — no manual switching required. **Does the HEPA filter ever need replacing?** No. The HEPA Lifetime Filter is maintenance-free and stays with the machine for its entire lifespan — nothing to reorder or replace. **Can I buy a second battery?** Yes — additional VARTA 25.2V batteries are available separately and are compatible with the entire Triflex HX3 range. ## Details - **Price:** 949.0 CAD - **Vendor:** Miele - **Type:** Cordless Vacuum - **Tags:** HX3, miele ## Variants | Variant | Price | Available | |---------|-------|-----------| | Default Title | 949.00 CAD | In stock | ## Images - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog - Miele Triflex HX3 Cat & Dog --- > Source: [SamVac Plus](https://samvacplus.com/products/miele-triflex-hx3-cat-dog) > Updated: 2026-09-01
