Leave it to Miele to make connectivity so hard to use, and meaningless that few will bother and those that do can look forward to redoing it every app update. Their wireless app just updated - now I have a to log in to use it - this means setting up the account and password ( painful affair on...

Ostensibly the reason is so that large items dont fold into a ball leaving the center wet. Seems to work "pretty well" for my T1405. for certain none of my old American gas dryers reversed and most did a pretty good job at drying. - but I wonder who has actually tested this. I wonder why...

Hello Brisnat - I had a few parts fail under warranty and repair was swift, professional - and expensive. Not being under warranty I didn't bother to bring it up with Mile. It seems to be that they took some solidity out of the machines in the last couple generations. Hello Bewitched, Thanks...

So you had a W1 for 2 years - sent it back and they gave you another older machine. Do you have write ups/description of your issues someplace over your dissatisfaction I can read? I'd love to see your letter to Miele if you saved a copy. Normally after you own something two years - its...

Thanks Henene4! I'm going to try a friend in the UK and if he falls through I'll ping you. UD

Thanks appnut, I try to add value where I can, but don't multitask very well and often my posts aren't great. In my head it makes sense but on the screen, it translates poorly - yeah sure the words are English and somewhat in the right order but don't always read well. UD

Twindos update good and bad...... On the twindos front, I'm really surprised I like the system so much. I was very skeptical. I tried Miele soap before and thought it sucked both in cleaning power and smell - it was a chore even to finish the box. I'm a die-hard Persil fan and was figuring...

I no sooner opened my mouth about how my latest Miele vac was trouble free- and then discovered this morning - looks like the last person dropped it and broke the extension lock..... abuse? vs just not stout enough? tough call, either way, it was 126 dollar replacement- that was in stock up the...

Some items are cycle speed independent like controls and like the water fill solenoids - all they know is on and off, and I had two cold water fills fails in 11K cycles -mostly attributable to our hard water. A slow turning spinning cycle is a "cycle" nonetheless to those components. Speed...

Another weekend another small mountain sent back to the kids.... UD

Most Miele stuff lasts a long time. Some don't. My first blue moon vac was terrible, from cracked circuit boards to hoses with poorly integrated electronics. The new miele vac has been great Ovens have been great - only needing one repair in 15 years. Dishwasher a g851 SC is about 15...

speed vs money - Im kind of on the edge with one set speed wise as is, most colleagues have 2 pair of units. This is why I put 11K cycles on in 13.8 years. Thats a bunch of laundry. Although its true I can make energy from my roof - natural gas therms are dirt cheap and although not limitless...

It appears the midrange performance bargain is the new Electrolux series. Good for 22LB loads they seem to split the diff between the cheaper units and the higher end units. My largest weekly loads the queen size beds each fit fine in the W1 and my 4 separate weekly bins don't come close to...

Even though I would have loved the capacity the Miele 4XXX series were dogs. I couldn't use the speed queen because of its lack of an internal heater I need to sustain 60C loads to kill animal bacteria. UD

The pedestal arrived yesterday and I had to fiddle with the feet and position so the drawer would clear the lip and door opening - took a while but shes leveled and ready - probably time to peel off the twindos sticker. Henene - Quick intense wash doesn't let me use cold water it only goes...

DBV- Its sitting on a pedestal now and still super smooth. Smoother than my 1215 even with loads it could never balance. Would i buy again at this stage - yes absolutely. I really like the twindos so far, and at 20 ML per dose Im getting way longer than I though- 75 vs 35 loads for about 20...

Thanks, Jerrod, I'm having a bit of trouble finding that, but it's not really a big deal. Ok so this thing is pretty awesome - I've had it filled to the brim twice now with 17.5 pounds of rugs, 17.5 pounds of mixed towels plus 2 full-size cotton chaise lounge covers (i put a basket on the...

Thanks, I'll check that out I pretty much just check up using the app now through the phone- bit of a pain setting it up but finally got it. Thrilled with it so far. In retrospect, I don't think 1215 had much if any balance logic. This machine had a tricky 2 large rug load and spent 3-4...

Henenen - Yes I believe I have the power wash 2.0 -that the secondary recirculator and filter right? (Miele has an excellent filter) W1 - Im awaiting delivery of the plinth which is a few weeks out so I reassembled the area and started at it the laundry right away. . Old unit was really...

Hello Henene4. I don't feel I got gypped, some might calculate that Im not really saving much, but I value the performance. My pw6065 is supposed to be more industrial and last to 15K but well see about that. It wasn't the shock absorbers, as all were replaced approx 700 cycles ago, as were...
