Publicly listed specifications include a 6.44 kg weight and 550 W stated power, while CHOICE reports measuring its power at 577 W. Its public test pages do not reveal enough results to support a verdict on cleaning performance, so this review focuses on the verifiable specifications, included tools, bag compatibility and what to check before buying one used.
What is the Miele Compact C1 Ecoline 12396540?
Model number 12396540 is identified as the Compact C1 Ecoline SCAP3 in New Zealand listings. CHOICE’s Australian product record describes it as a bagged barrel vacuum and marks it discontinued; Consumer NZ also labels the exact variant discontinued. These records establish that it is no longer a current model in those listings, not that every retailer or second-hand seller has no remaining stock. CHOICE · Consumer NZ

Leader & Watt, a retailer, describes SKU 12396540 as a 550 W EcoLine model with a universal floorhead, an EasyLock sectioned suction tube and a 9 m operating radius. That 9 m figure is a seller-advertised operating radius, not the same label or source as CHOICE’s 8.5 m reach-from-power-point figure; neither should be substituted for the other. Leader & Watt

What do independent tests establish?
CHOICE lists test categories including cleaning performance, carpet cleaning, ease of use, pet hair, corners and edges, noise, reliability and satisfaction. Its Expert Rating and results are behind a membership gate. Consumer NZ likewise locks its scores and results. The publicly visible material confirms that these organizations assess the product, but it does not establish a public score or enough detail to call this model a top performer. This article is not a hands-on test.
Which bags and filters fit?
Miele’s Italian compatibility information lists FJM HyClean Pure bags for Compact C1 and Compact C2 models, and its product listing includes Compact C1 among compatible models. This makes genuine FJM bags the supported replacement-bag family for the Compact C1 range. Miele Germany identifies AirClean Filter 50 for Compact C1 and Compact C2 models. Regional product names and configurations can vary, and those family-level listings do not confirm what filter is installed in an individual used vacuum.

- New Zealand: Consumer NZ displays NZ$519. Its exact-product record was last updated in January 2025; the page’s category was updated in August 2026. The displayed price should not be treated as a current offer.

Who should consider a used one?
The documentation makes this model easier to identify and maintain than to judge on cleaning results. It may be worth considering if you find a complete, working example at a price that reflects its discontinued status and can confirm local access to bags and parts. If cleaning performance is your deciding factor, seek test results that are publicly available for the particular model you are comparing; the accessible CHOICE and Consumer NZ pages do not provide a basis for ranking this vacuum against current alternatives.
