I can't tell you which is the best but I can give you my general impression of vacuum cleaners, I've used a few in a lot of different houses.
The most popular cord model here seems to be Dyson Ball, but imo it's overrated. Not bad, but not great, and very expensive.
Miele, I've used a couple but must admit, they were old. They seem better than the Dyson Ball though not by much. In terms of weight and manoeuvrability they were similar. I repeat, these were old models so maybe you find nicer ones brand new.
I've used one corded Shark, it was a "standing" type you could detach partially and carry around by hand (still keeping the cord). The whole vacuum was very heavy and bulky but detached was much more manageable, and the suction power was really decent. Cord was very long too.
Of the three I'd pick the Shark, with the caveat that I didn't get a fair comparison with Miele.
