How good are Miele dishwashers? Are they as good as Bosch?
We've never owned a Bosch, but I did take a "dead" 800 series Miele and put a new circ pump in it... used it for a number of years until the TOL one from the Miele showroom became available at a BOL "standard DW" price. It replaced a KA/Hobart KDS 18 or 19 that was dying. We've lost touch with the 800 machine (863?) but it went to a good home and I wouldn't be surprised if it's still running.
Also had a 2000 series that I did something to (minor) and had that for several years before the commercial Miele from the showroom became available... again at a BOL price. The 2000 is still running in our cousin's house.
The 800 series was probably 15-16 years old when I got it and the 2k was about 8-10 years old.
Miele machines like to be used, and like to be maintained (clean out the filter screens, etc.).
I can't speak for the new generation with the auto detergent feed as that was coming out just as Miele and I parted ways.
Hope this helps!
