On my 4th Miele washing machine They were the best you could buy and gave the longest warranty offered by any manufacturer. Now we in the UK have the option of buying an Ebac which is arguably as good as a Miele but I cannot testify that as never had one but when I am looking to buy a new...

OK Dumb question coming up ... Why use 2nd rinse when it then rinses out all the fabric softener you put in the dispenser? Would it not be better to add during the 1st rinse so it would be used in the last rinse?
