    Cycle set and forget or are you a control freak too?

    Reply #4 - Who ever uses all Miele options and extras? Me! And that's how I discovered that there is a lot wrong with that

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Reply #14 - henene4/Henrik I have no problem believing you that in appliances there is much worse, and that I haven't seen that worse, but I meant in my domain that is not appliances. Where I strongly disagree with is your "unfortunately": I feel lucky not having seen that sort of software, I...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Update As I wrote in a previous message, I have found some even more bizarre behaviour of the washing machine. The Miele engineer has just left, he has been unable to address any of the issues, he told me that he has never seen anything like this and he will be back for a software update (I...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Quick update So at the end Miele will send an engineer tomorrow, Monday the 27th of May, and in the meantime I have found another error in the settings of the washing machine. I am not very happy: if this is Miele quality...

    I just wonder... My dishes and clothes are clean even with the regulations we have in Europe: does this count?

    Look @ what's happening to my friends Maytag Dishwasher

    Rust! Picture number 3 clearly shows that the problem is rust, which suggests that either the paint process has been incredibly cheap, or something went wrong with the same painting process. I am afraid that just one or more touch-ups would not stop the problem from getting worse and worse

    AEG drum paddles replacement

    Screws I have taken a look at the AEG spare parts website, and it seems that there is only one type of paddle that needs a screw; for this type of paddle, the screw is sold together with the paddle. However, if AEG uses a sealed drum (as I think they do) there would be no way to access the...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Software quality? Thank you bewitched/Marco, it seems that your experience confirms that there is something wrong with Miele's software: if have been able to solve only half of the problem... However, with the appreciation for the customer service, 4 machines in 8 years is quite an...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Update Thank you very much for all the replies and suggestions. Yesterday I sent to Miele a video showing that the "Settings" menu does not contain the "Welcome tone" menu item. This morning I have received a call from Miele by a nice lady that addressed me in English but also spoke Italian...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    Replies #1 and #3 I try to clarify, henene4 / Henrik: - the machine is brand new, it has been purchased from a Miele specialist here in Munich - the seller ordered the machine for me, so the machine came straight from Miele's warehouse to my flat - I have taken a look at the user's manuals...

    Miele: silence the welcome tune

    So I have decided to replace my old washing machine with a brand new Miele WEG375 WPS. The machine plays an annoying tune when it is turned on or off, and I want to silence it. The user manual states that in the "Settings" menu there is a "Greeting tone" menu item where I can set the volume of...

    Wow - Has this been discussed here? Detergent/Health

    What's the problem? I have taken a look at a couple of detergents (including the "Kirkland Signature Ultra Shine Premium Dish Soap, Citrus Scent") and I haven't found anything that I didn't already know. What is stated is almost common sense: I surely did not need them to know that fragrances...

    Number of Cycles on Modern Washing Machines

    Reply #12 - Give me 5 knobs and a few buttons I agree with you, IIIJohnnyMacIII / John, but such a washing machine would never sell: the average user would not be able to correctly set those 5 knobs and a few buttons, and the machine would be considered "too difficult to use". People do not...

    How Do I Save Images and Pictures?

    Alternative solutions 1) Under the "File" menu of your browser choose "Save page as..." and then choose "Web Page, complete"; you will get an *.html file that you can happily ignore, and a folder with the same name as the *.html file; open this folder and you "should" find all the pictures in...

    Miele launches worldwide efficiency program

    Been there... I have worked for several big companies, and sooner or later I have seen this sort of "plans" in each of them, and every time the so-called plan can be summarised as: "waste millions if not billions out of incompetent people and especially stupid and over-paid managers, then every...
