Miele

Hi Darren,
The spin performance of the Miele at 1800RPM is excellent. It's difficult to directly compare US and European dryers as US dryers are very powerful indeed, but a 6Kg load of towels takes between 55 and 65 minutes in my Bosch Condenser dryer, I would say the same load would dry in 30 minutes or less in a US dryer. The Water-plus option seems to effect only the rinse level on Cottons cycles anyway, I believe it raises the wash and rinse levels on Synthetics cycles. Yes I have no complaints about the water levels on the Miele and the rinsing performance is excellent.

Thank you for your comments, yes I'm pleased with my small collection.

Very Interested In What's On TOP of Your Machine . .

David,

Your Miele is AWESOME. I aspire someday to have a proper Miele as well.

I noticed that you are using SA8. Is that a UK version, or is it the same as what we have over here in the US? I guess more specifically, does your SA8 already contain percarbonate bleach, or do you add it separately? I love the US version of SA8, but I have to add bleach separately for my whites.

David!
Excellent machine! congratulations! 1800rpm! I cannot imagine what that is like & how dry things must be! I would love to see pics of the rinse level!

How are the dysons? Would love to see more of those too!

Amway SA8 Premium with Bioquest

Hi Bryan,
I believe it is identical to the US version except for the packaging. The box reads Amway SA8 Premium with Bioquest cleaning system, also there is no HE branding as this would mean nothing to most UK customers. 99% of laundry detergent sold in the UK and indeed most of Europe is low sudsing and has been for decades.

SA8 over here already has Oxygen bleaching agents and OBAs included but for whites I like to add a measure of Amway SA8 Solutions All Fabric Bleach(Oxygen based), also for very heavily soiled laundry I add a measure of Amway SA8 Solutions TriZyme. Any stains that are not shifted by that combination are there to stay LOL.
I'm very impressed with SA8 and it's the only powder I have found that can outperform Biological Ariel. I don't use non Biological detergents except for washing Wool or Silk as enzymes can damage Wool and Silk fibres.

Miele 1800RPM Spin

Hi Darren,
Thank you. Yes I'm pleased with the Miele and it does spin very well, shirts and finer fabrics are dry enough to iron right out of the machine.

The Dyson's are fine thanks. Yes I must try and do some videos but its finding time to do them.

How is the Ultima going for you, it's a very smart looking machine? I loved my WF860P when I had it but a word of warning though, don't wash trainers in them as they can knock the paddles off the drum. I never had any problems with the paddles in my WF860P but I have lost count of the paddles I have changed for customers and I often hear the story " I was just washing my trainers".

That would be so cool, so I could see, that it will be the right decision to buy that machine.

Miele Videos

Hi MrWash,
Yes I have video capability but the problem is finding time to do the videos. I will do some as soon as I get some spare time.

Yes I'm well pleased with the machine but I do find it small on capacity.

David

 

[mrwash]

In Germany, Miele won't produce machines with greater capacity. Thats what I was told, when I wrote an e-mail to Miele, asking if they will produce greater machines.

Well, I would be very happy to see some vids. But take your time. I think vids from the machine will fortify my decision to buy it ;-D

Miele Navitronic W3985WPS

Hi MrWash,
Yes the machines smoothness and quietness is very impressive, it is extremely quiet even on top 1800RPM spin. There is no Motor noise whatsoever only the drum whirring round at high speed.

I`m gonna visit the Miele-musuem in the german city Gütersloh this year. There's is a model of your machine and it has a glass-wall, so you can look inside and see how it is built. I will upload some pictures after the visit.
