Miele really worth it?

[Hamster]

I would say no.

I am a massive Miele fan, all my appliances are Miele or Gaggenau however I just cant see how its worth paying £1 to £2k for a washing machine when £500+/- will get you a really good Bosch (just as good spec as the Miele) washing machine which you can replace after 5 years if it dies.

Totally agree. When I was looking for a new dishwasher, I came to the conclusion that to get a Miele better than a Bosch, I'd need to spend well over £500.

I have one its ok but not worth it over vax or something priced at that level

You're lucky you've not died in a house fire tbh.

Not to hijack the ops thread but does anyone have any experience with any of the Samsung Eco Bubble machines? I'm really torn between one of these and an LG.

I think Beko is a pretty cool machine. Eh washes clothes and doesn't afraid of anything.

I got an old Bosch off Ebay for £60. It washes my clothes and has done perfectly for the 3 years i've had it. I'd say no, it's not worth it

I'd sooner buy a Siemens washing machine, as an upgrade from my Bosch. Miele are far too expensive for that they are.

 

[[DOD]Asprilla]

Yes.

But they're not what they used to be!
Although it's the new dishwasher that is causing problems. The new Miele washing machine has been faultless.

Got to say my Miele dishwasher is pretty disappointing. It regularly fails to get plates clean.

We have a Miele Washer/Dryer - it's 7 years old now and still going strong. No regrets whatsoever with buying it. Very quiet too, even on a 1600 rpm spin cycle.

You're really the only one who can decide what to get. Yes, they are more reliable than other manufacturers, but I imagine you could probably get something that will be just as reliable for less money.

I bought the cheapest Beko 4 years back, still go strong.

 

[danza]

I have a 13 year old Miele washing machine, and it still looks almost new.

£280 Samsumg owner here, lick me.

Owned it for over three years now and still ticks over nicely after doing 3-4 washes each week pretty much every week.

£1000+ on a washing machine, seriously? Only if I had deep pockets could I justify that sort of money on a dull white good.

 

[Pestilence]

Smeg.

Just wanted to say that word legitimately.

 

[Spangles]

Quite strange how you can have such a diverse range of washing machines available. Man up, this should be a womans choice! *hides*

 

[HamZilla]

You're making a real Miele of this.

 

[Devrij]

Smeg.

Lol, I always thought it was funny that people bought fridges with that emblazoned on the door. We even have one at work! In seriousness though, they're actually a solid brand!

I liked them, but I preferred the LG machines. The higher end LG's allow you to put liquid detergent in the drawer at the top because they recycle the water in the sump and spray it down on the clothes, making them more efficient and easier to use. You'll know if it has this feature because there will be a small spout/nozzle thing just behind the top of the hatch on the inside.
