In homes where every detail is considered — from the grain of timber to the weave of a handwoven rug — care goes beyond design. It’s about how we live in these spaces, how we protect them, and how we keep them truly clean.

That’s the philosophy behind the new Miele Guard vacuum series, a German-engineered innovation designed to deliver a deep, hygienic clean while preserving the surfaces that make a house a home. Recently, two design-conscious tastemakers — Amber Peebles, Co-Founder of Isle of Omni and regarded style enthusiast, and Alice Lines, Editor of Homestyle — welcomed the Guard L1 Comfort into their homes, sharing how it fits seamlessly into their daily rituals of care.

Amber: A Sanctuary of Style and Self-Care

Amber’s home on Waiheke is a reflection of her brand, Isle of Omni — a sanctuary of linen, candlelight, and curated calm. With polished concrete, warm timber, and a newly added designer rug, her space is layered with textures that deserve thoughtful protection. Her experience with the Miele Guard L1 Comfort highlights its ability to deliver a truly deep clean while protecting the materials that define her home. With multiple specialised floorheads and a sealed system designed for allergen-free living, the vacuum has become an essential part of her routine keeping every surface clean, cared for, and beautifully preserved.

Alice: Design-Led Living with Lasting Quality

As the editor of Homestyle, Alice brings a considered approach to every corner of her home where creativity meets comfort, and design is lived in. In a household with a full rhythm of family life, the Miele Guard Comfort XL supports a sense of calm and order.

Moving effortlessly across timber floors, rugs, and carpet, the vacuum protects the surfaces that define her home while delivering performance-engineered precision. It’s a tool that complements her thoughtful interiors — reliable, refined, and built to last.

Why the Miele Guard Series Matters

In a world of stick vacuums and quick fixes, the Miele Guard series reminds us that some things are worth doing properly. With specialised floorheads for every surface, from delicate rugs to hardwood floors — and a sealed system that captures allergens and dust, the Guard L1 Comfort is more than a vacuum. It’s a commitment to care.

Whether you’re creating a sanctuary for your family or preserving the beauty of your home’s materials, the Guard series offers a solution that’s both powerful and precise.
