Miele Vibration FAIL

[mrb627]

Towels Complete

The Towels completed. There is still a mild amount of vibration during medium spin speeds. Overall, it is much improved over the previous instance. I have been unable to determine the source for the remaining vibration. Could be internal to the W3033, part of the pedestal, or perhaps a connected component in the dryer installation. I will attempt to rule out each suspected source over the next week or so.

Told Ya

Installations by non-Miele USA workers are prone to problems as the link provided illustrated. You should contact whoever did the the work and Miele to lodge a complaint. Miele got so fed up with such problems that in some states such as California they took the entire process back in house. You can purchase Miele appliances from whatever dealer you wish, but MieleUSA handles the install for those affected areas.

Even laundromat SQ front loaders will vibrate mildly now and then. Even the best electronic controlled washers will not be able to obtain a perfect balanced load all the time. Towels in particular can be a problem for many front loaders because of their weight. Then as we have been discussing unlike other brands a Miele washers aren't as fussy about spinning as others. Where some will try for ages to seek the perfect balanced load (and abort or slow down if they cannot get it), Miele seems to have programmed their washers to simply go ahead as long as the thing is not so widely out of whack as to cause damage to the machine.
