Kenmoreguy, you spoke right words! I couldn't agree more with you!

A very good friend of mine is from your country! Wonderful people over there! Anyway i think your judgement about your diswasher can be more or less applied to every product made by them but it seems people here would even buy pieces of s**t if there is their label on it.

Hi! I am Marco, i am dependable, rugged, smart and I love Miele appliances. I do own a w1 washing machine and i must admit it washes perfectly without adding other chemicals other than the phase1 and 2 detergents.

Hi. Many things can be responsible for the problem your friend is experiencing but i think the most common is a leakage that fills with water the bottom tray switching consequently on the aquastop sensor. You could empty the tub and then tilt the machine to see il water comes out from the...

Hi. You should check brushes on the motor and then the electronic board. You might need to resolder dry joints on the electronic board. Does the machine motor produces any sparkling light when it spins? You can see it easily if you observe the floor obscuring totally the room. Is the wash speed...

Dear DJ Gabriele, instead of making azardous sentences about machines you never had you should buy one and try for yourself. That would be simply fair... The fact the Asko seems so goodlooking doesn't necessarily mean it is as good as a Miele (or better). Let's not forget Asko brand belongs to...

Mat, while we are trying to prove we are italians why don't you try to learn foreign languages? You might discover it's not so simple! I saw so many errors made by english mother tongue people you just would not believe... Since the error does not appear on other machines why don't you consider...

Gaggenau is the premium brand of BSH

I went several times in Switzerland to have a look at these Vzug machines. All sales persons of several stores equally selling Miele,Schulthess and Vzug machines told me that nothing can beat Miele quality. Vzug only produces few models while the other washers on their catalogues are made by...

Philco bendix All these Philcos were made here in Italy in the Brembate factory. My aunt bought a Philco Bendix in 1963. It also had the rear controls console,the detergent door was on the enamelled top and the large porthole with the key. It had a large knob for programme choice and two other...

That washing machine was mine. I gave it to Alessandro and then he modified it adding the variable thermostat. I bought it at a flea market here in Florence... It is an italian cheap machine.

..."Those are made FAR better than the wimpy Miele machines"... Supremewirlpol, you said you never saw a Miele in person so how can you judge about their quality? It's the same if one that never saw a Wascomat Ipso or Primus says they are unreliable... :-) This is not a race for the winning...

Why buy a Miele... for me there are countless pros to buy a Miele. Since I was a child I always had Miele appliances. Using them day in and day out will tell you why buy Miele. They are sturdy and you can feel it just rotating the knobs or pushing the buttons. No washers that meeow as they were...

W 918 = W1918 Hi! I've changed bearings on my W918 Miele. I think W 918 is the same as your W1918. Changing bearings is a hard work because of the weight of the tub assembly but it's not complicated. You need to remove the motor and the black iron cast from the tub. All four arms have two...

water valves are not produced by miele so a common water valve for 120V will be fine as for us in europe a common 220V valve is certainly fine. Miele has not valves that work on odd voltages. Bear in mind that you should have a false read if you measure voltage with the connectors disconnected...

I owned (and still own) many Miele dishwashers and never found a stuck motor. Maybe the problem is just the impeller stuck with some food particle. The impeller can be easily removed and replaced without changing all the motor assembly

Hello, I think you can fit a common water valve and save 200 $ ! It doesn't need to be an original Miele part. Every valve will electrically fit. You might just have problems to mechanically fit the valve to the support that holds it.

The very very old machine (the one under the counter) is a Sangiorgio made in Italy...

Hi Guy, to know if a fuse is blown or not you have to remove it from the board and check it with an ohmmeter. You should also have a solder gun to do the job. If you have no such things you should ask a friend who is aware how to properly use a solder gun and an ohmmeter and who owns such things...

almost forgot... on the main board there also is a fuse (usually a radial fuse. it looks like a small black cylinfrical capacitor)that blows if one of the relays fails. remember to check it too!
