I’ve made no secret in the past that I’m not a fan of the Miele T1 Heatpump dryers, even with extra dry enabled, stuff still can feel that is really damp even after attempting to flash dry. Not to mention how long they now take in the name of efficiency. I love the first and second generation...

I have a W5000 Miele and recently a scrapped one the same because the baseplate was full of rust and holes. When I was scrapping it, I found that it had three friction dampers, rather than the 2 I'm used to and also that the Shipping struts that fit almost all other domestic Mieles aren't long...

My duet obviously decided I was getting cocky and has started shredding in the last two loads. The first was a full load of darks and it totally shredded the back of a dress made out of synthetic fabric. I’d assumed that I’d left a zip in zippered and just wrote it off. Today I had a full...

Leon and I have been collecting these Supertronic Miele's which are now about 10 years old and one of them came with the Detergent Dispenser. This device is about as big as a Kitchen Aid, and stores powder on the left and Liquid on the right. You can put a range of detergents in there, but...

I've recently picked up a second hand Miele WDB130 Heatpump dryer, that is taking way too long to dry and not completely drying. With the earlier generation, the fix has been to remove the front and clean the secondary condenser, that then fixes the issue. The challenge I have with the T1's is...

I've recently turned up a BNIB A901E Kenwood Chef that dates back to between 1981 and 1985 and it arrive in today's post. Back in 1993 when I was 12, I bought a second hand one from the newspaper for 100 dollars, it had seen some hard use in a bakery before I got it and up until 15 years ago...

Hi All, I've picked up another Miele T490 and this one isnt heating. I've confirmed that the heat relay is being triggered by the Computer and have found that the over temp thermostat thats in series with the Heater circuit is open. The element has 27 ohms resistance, so I believe its ok. I...

I’ve acquired a 8yo SQ today and have been cleaning out the mould from all the crevices it can hide in. I took the tub ring off and now if I fill above wash bowl height as part of trying to get rid of any remaining goop, I get leakages between the tub ring and tank. Firstly, should I be able...

For those that have been around a while, you might remember that 18 months ago, I found two of these machines. I've been working on restoring one of them, but it has been a slow process as they'd been stored on a farm for the last 50 years. This is a Horizontal Axis machine that holds 12...

Hi All, I've got a T4888C Miele condenser dryer that is now leaking moisture from the top seal of the door, with the cool weather at the moment the area above the door is dripping with condensation. The Seal is intact, is there a way to adjust the door catch to tighten the seal, or is a...

Hi All those lucky enough to have a Keymatic. I was wondering whether anyone has a sump hose assembley either original or a remanufactured bodge job to swap for a Bluey Green Keymatic boot. The boot isn't cracked or perished on the inside, it has some small cracks on the outside. If anyone is...

Hi All, I recently found this Gem on Ebay in Sydney, it still belonged to the original owner and was in the basement it was first installed in 60 years ago. She was trying to find it a new home before she moved out to a retirement village. Unlike a lot of early Aussie Auto's its not all...

Hi All, I caught up with Leon today for Christmas, and he had not 1, but 2 rare things to give me. Up first is this hose. Who can tell me what it belongs to :) Cheers Nathan

Hi All, I've got a Neptune 7550 that has all of a sudden started displaying Speed Sense Error when you start the cycle. Sometimes the door will unlock, other times it stays locked and you have to use the release to get the door opened. When you go into the Diags, it is reporting the following...

Hi All, I'm wondering if any of my european counterparts are able to try and source a bearing and seal kit for my nearly 40 yo Miele W423? Its not leaking yet, but the bearings are starting to get noisey. I had ordered the Kit from Miele Australia and after a 2 week wait they called to cancel...

Hi Robert, There seems to be a change on the website today, where each line shows the line as a selection when you mouse over it. When using the scroll wheel on my mouse it takes twice as long to scroll. The first click moves the page, the second click moves the selector bar, third click...

Hi All,   I'm usually one of the bigger Miele fanboys around, with the laundry, cooking and floor care equipment, however we've recently put my 5yo G2220 SCi Dishwasher into mums house and bought the new G5715 SCU XXL for our house.  So far this hasnt gone well and I really should've kept the...

Hi All, Well my GE Monitor top CK-30-C16 arrives today and whilst I expected it to be heavy, I didnt expect it to be so big. It stands 180cm tall, 85cm wide and 70cm deap, thats as big as the two door fridge we have in the kitchen. The cabinet exterior is in fantastic condition, a bit of car...

Hi All, I've just bought a Monitor Top Fridge Type CK-30-C16. I've got a few questions before we go down to Sydney to collect it. Would a Fridge with this compressor be Freon or Sulphur Dioxide? How heavy are these fridges, could two people lift them straight up, is the weight more than...

Hi Everyone, I'm usually loathe to post off topic threads, but I have a question for the Type 1 Diabetics, who use Insulin Pumps that may be among us. Mum has been diabetic for 45 years and has seen a lot of changes in how things a treated over that time. With the advent of Humalog and Humalin...
