Yes please Chris! I'll join Service Wash too

Hello all, hope everyone is well and staying safe. It's a while since I last posted here. I was wondering if any of our UK members have any old brochures dating back to the mid to late 90s. I used to have loads when I was younger but I'm not sure what happened to them. I'd be grateful if any e...

All fixed! After two engineer visits later, we're all up and running. The second engineer apparently removed the filter, to allow water to come out. Doing this managed to prime the tubes. It sounds like there was just an airlock because it hadn't been used for some time. Mum noticed after it...

Hello James, the engineer did mention to my Dad something about priming but forgot to show him how it was done! I observed a bit more of a cycle, and I think U2 is being dispensed, as I could see some bubbles in the latter stage, and also the clothes have a faint fragrance, not just of water...

Hello all, I need a bit of assistance with our new Miele W1. In my previous thread, we've had an engineer out to see to some 'issues'. The vibration was caused by the lack of a locking ring on one of the back feet it's smooth and quiet now. The Twindos was blocked, so he cleaned it out. He...

Yes, as it was ex demo, the cartridges were already inside and have been for a few months. We're also experiencing bad vibration, I realised it wasn't dispensing for the shorts wash so did a spin. We've had a Miele before which was smooth and hardly moved, I know this is faster and potentially...

Well... Turns out, we need an engineer visit already! As this was a demonstration machine, it had the cartridges preinstalled on delivery, and guess what, the dispensing didn't work! I assume the tubes are blocked. The machine is also vibrating excessively, despite being perfectly level. The...

Hello all, I've been quiet on the forum lately, largely due to work and personal issues at home. However I'm making a return with the best way I know! We've upgraded our Miele with guess what, another Miele! We had this WKG120 at my work (John Lewis). It was an ex display which we needed to...

Miele blizzard The Miele looks great, not sure if it's just me, but it has a Bosch esque look to it

Yes please, I like detail!

Hello all, this is an issue that's causing me confusion. There's so many types of motors manufacturers seem to be coming up with. I have a basic understanding, just need a bit of clarification. I assume the difference between an AC and a DC motor is the input current, the DC being able to...

Snap Chris! In North Yorkshire we're just getting underway with a towel wash. Love how we're using the same powder! What model is your Miele?

On our Miele, we use cottons 60 for towels with powder detergent. For everything else we use cottons 40 with liquid. Water plus gets used on large loads. If I'm washing my work uniform for the next day, I'll use the Express, it's the only time it gets used. Mum occasionally uses the handwash...

I like them all! Those AEG's are stunning, wonder if they'll come over to the UK

And finally, a Marmite situation, love it or hate it. I personally like the contrarotator in silver or white as it's unique, but not purple.
