    Dress Shirt Cycle Actually Dress Shorts has a Sensitive Wash Rhythm, a slower spin speed, and an extra rinse over the WF cycle.

    Permanent Press Cycles are Overrated

    It can. It’s just different. And it has a third rinse. WF has twice rinses.

    Permanent Press Cycles are Overrated

    proofing Exactly! Lol I would love to know what their reasoning was. Why hide Wrinkle-Free/Minimum Iron? And why replace it with Proofing, of all cycles.

    Permanent Press Cycles are Overrated

    Miele WXI860 Must be! Even Miele removed their PP Cycle (Wrinle-Free) from their dial on their updated WXI860. https://www.mieleusa.com/e/w1-front-loading-washing-machine-wxi860-wcs-tdos-and-intensewash-lotus-white-11614140-p

    Welcome! It’s so nice to have a forum where even someone age 13 can join. I have been obsessed with washing machines since a young age too. Not sure if it is the sound, the mechanics, water, care of the clothes, etc. But I had to hide this obsession. It wasn’t something a boy should be...

    @Mielerod Regarding QuickIntenseWash on the US W1s: When you have hot water intake, the cycle is :49 for 40C and :59 for 60C. If you have water intake set to Cold only the cycle times are 1:15 and 1:25.

    Which Miele W1?

    @hippo I have noticed that the app ALWAYS shows Water Plus as active even though I have confirmed I have that option set to Normal and not on. I don’t think you can trust the app.

    Miele W1 WWH860 Cycle Times

    Hi. I created a document containing cycle times for every cycle. There are two tabs; one that has Estimated times, and another that has Detailed times that include wash, rinse, and spin times. I created this because this info is not provided by the manufacturer, and I feel it could be helpful...

    will need to convince my mom eventualy that longer wash time are better than shorter wash time

    I say let you mom wash on whatever cycle and temperature that makes her happy. Everyone has their own cycle and temperature preferences. She is an adult. And at the end of the day, pretty much whatever temp and cycle you wash your clothes in…they come out clean!

    Miele USA W1's Water Inlet Error After Prewash

    Laundry Assistant is gone. Can’t select a cycle using MobileControl. TwinDos percentages gone. Now just says SUFFICIENT. And no matter where in the cycle it is, it always says MAIN WASH. Have you tried using Pre-Wash? I am assuming yes. LOL
