When I was in Esslingen...
My Cousin had a House full of Miele. And seemed very proud to show me as she knew I was into appliances. And Hanna seemed to be "scolding" Gudrun about overloading the washer one evening. (I couldn't understand, but when a Mother is pointing her finger at the daughter and pulling clothes out of the washer before it's turned on... You know something is wrong !!!)
