Miele Vac

Hi Chris.

Yeah, I thought Miele vac would be very reliable, but the one I had was bad. I read up I think on Comet or Which website and a number of people had problems with Miele vac. The one they exchanged is great now, but very heavy.

Revolution

Chris

I too have a Revolution 5000 which lasted about 18 months before a board inside went "Snap, Crackle, Pop" and has not worked since. I will get around to getting it fixed some of these days but an 80's Tristar has filled in extremly well since. I have quite a lot of Miele equipment and for many years it has been my "brand of choice" but that cleaner was a BIG disappointment particularly since its predecessor 247i (18 years old) is still going strong. And in some ways is more convenient to use too

Blimey Mark!

I remember seeing pics of your square door Bendix set, but you kept all these under wraps eh!

Fantstic machines you got there - particularly like the Philips 707. Brings back memories of a friends blue disk machine, when I was a nipper, but hers had a variable temperature too. Very cluttered facia, but very smart looking machine.

AWB082, matching Hoover A3108 and D6074 (being cheeky, but any chance of a piccy of these?) and a brown facia Bendix (what model machine is this?). Indesit L5 too.
That is one hell of a restoration queue you got there. All power to you in gently processing them and thanks for posting the piccies.

More more more!!!

Cheers
Paul

Seems Miele

....vacs can be problematic....

....without trying to shanghai the post, we've not had an issue in the 3yrs we've had ours....

...mind, the Nilfisk it replaced is now 6yrs and working a treat too

Hi Philip.

I was thinking 7133, but they made so many bloomin versions of the browns, sometimes its difficult to tell whats what.
